In this video, Michael Covel, author of the best selling book, Trend Following, interviews David Harding, who is the founder of Winton Capital as well as Managing Director and Head of Research. He is one of the pioneers of trend-following systematic trading in Europe with an established track record. In 1987 Harding co-founded Adam Harding & Lueck (AHL), a quantitative fund manager, which was later acquired by Man Group plc where it remains the company's flagship fund. Harding's Winton executes a systematic trading program in which it can hold long or short positions in over 100 futures markets around the world. The program blends short-term trades with long-term trend following, incorporating both multiple time frames and systems. The company pursues a diversified trading strategy which does not rely on favorable conditions in any particular market or on general appreciation of asset values. Winton Capital Management began trading in October 1997 from a small office in Kensington with three employees and less than US$2 million in assets under management. By January 2009 Winton employed over 180 staff and had over $12 billion in assets under management.
