This week, we touch on the difference a year makes, how good position sizing can reduce anxiety, the recent article from AQR by Cliff Asness,  why a meaningful allocation to Trend Following might be considered a must for any portfolio, the psychology of prediction, and some of the drawbacks of Trading from chart patterns.  Questions we cover this week include: Would CTAs want to publish their returns to investors less frequently?  Does history always \u2018rhyme\u2019? Is the Fibonacci sequence a reliable indicator?  How do you differentiate Trend Following from a typical Long Volatility strategy?
