How a trend-following strategy handles Uranium
Uranium is a small, speculative market with extreme cycles: long bear markets, then rallies of several hundred percent. Clear rules for entry and exit are essential in markets like this.
Our Strategy Alpha applies the same simple, rules-based trend filter to every market: invested while the trend is up, in Treasury bills while it is down, checked once a month. It is not a forecast — it is a discipline that aims to keep most of the long climbs and sit out the deepest drawdowns.
