Thomas Stridsman, CTA is an independent market researcher and registered Commodity Advisor specializing in rules-based trading strategies. Here we talk about what that means and why it works well in various markets. We also talk about an article he wrote for Active Trader magazine about the changes in index volatility and what lower volatility and less "trendiness" means for traders who focus on index trading. He also talks about why he recommends placing the trade yourself instead of automating that functionality as well. You can find Thomas' website at ThomasStridsman.us.
