Alpha Trading by Perry J Kaufman

Alpha Trading by Perry J Kaufman

Presents strategies and systems for profitably trading in directionless markets and in those experiencing constant price shocks. This book details how to exploit new highs and lows. It describes how to hedge primary risk components, find robustness, and craft a diversification program.

“Whenever Perry Kaufman writes a new book. .system traders take note. What separates Kaufman’s work from that of many other writers on trading strategies is that he goes into the nuts and bolts of designing and testing system candidates. . . The website that accompanies the book has spreadsheets that make the calculations necessary for setting up trades ever so much easier. . .  What Kaufman offers is different — essentially a do-it-yourself manual for the trader who wants to develop strategies that remove directional risk and unearth opportunities for creating alpha.” (Seeking Alpha)
