Corporate executives deserve clean and objective intelligence that accurately portrays company stock prices and current investor sentiment.

What Is Trend-Following?
‘Trend-following’ (the statistics of price) is a quantitative toolkit that uses objective, price-based statistics to decipher the direction of a price trend, without the reliance on news, market fundamentals or using forecasts.
Trend-following is not a new concept and its benefits remain unknown across corporate communities. First pioneered by 19th century investors like Charles Dow (creator of the Dow Jones Industrial Average) it has since been adopted by algorithmic trading desks and quantitative hedge funds. It is increasingly relevant as an analytical tool with the growth of passive and quantitative investing.
At Trend Intelligence we produce the highest level of research and insight for our clients by adding our own statistical overlays to some of the best ‘textbook’ trend-following indicators from the world of quantitative finance. We seek to establish ourselves as a global standard bearer for trend-following reporting.

A pioneer in quantitative investing, Harding founded hedge funds AHL and Winton
