Brian Decker: 我在全球债券投资组合管理中,综合运用艾略特波浪理论、德马克指标和市场剖面图等多种技术分析方法,并结合宏观经济因素,对市场进行多时间框架分析,以确定市场趋势和潜在风险。我的目标是找到机会,并量化短期波动与长期风险回报目标之间的关系。我始终关注市场可能出现偏差的地方,并制定相应的应对策略。我知道如何赚钱,更重要的是,我知道如何控制风险和损失。 我的方法并非单纯预测,而是基于深入研究建立预期,并通过多种方法识别预期是否落空,从而调整策略。我知道成功的投资者也会有40%到50%的时间判断错误,关键在于如何控制损失,避免过度持有仓位。 在利率方面,我长期看好美国10年期国债收益率上涨至7%甚至8%,但短期内市场可能出现回调。我关注市场可能出现的各种情况,并根据不同的时间框架和风险承受能力,调整投资策略。 我关注其他资产类别,例如股票、信贷、工业金属等,并分析它们与利率之间的关系。我发现油价与利率的相关性可能强于油价与美元的相关性。 我与经济学家团队会互相交流信息,当我们的观点一致时,投资的成功率会更高。 我密切关注波动性指标,但需要其他信号来确认。 我关注投机者的持仓情况,但它并非直接的交易信号,而是综合分析的参考因素之一。 我关注上海房地产指数和工业金属之间的关系,并对工业金属持谨慎乐观态度。 David Lundgren: Brian Decker的投资方法非常全面,他不会仅仅根据日线图的表面信息就做出判断,而是综合运用多种技术分析方法,包括艾略特波浪理论、德马克指标和市场剖面图,并结合宏观经济因素,对市场进行多时间框架分析。他的方法注重风险管理,知道如何控制损失,并根据市场变化调整策略。 Tyler Wood: Brian Decker对市场行为和情绪的理解非常周到和细致,他不只是预测市场轨迹,还会考虑替代路径以及如何判断自己是否错了。他的方法强调在不同时间框架下对市场趋势和盘整状态的识别,并据此调整投资策略。他注重风险管理,并根据不同投资者的风险承受能力和时间框架,调整仓位和投资策略。
