The regulatory and marketing term often applied to trend following traders is managed futures. Of course managed futures can refer to more than just the strategy of trend following trading, but the vast majority of managed futures funds are trend following based. Why bring this up? There is a thread on linkedin where a debate over the “managed futures” name is ongoing. I personally think the term managed futures says almost nothing to the average investor and or trader. It causes constant confusion. To me a term should describe the trading strategy, not an instrument traded, especially if the goal is to create awareness.
