The Three Foundational Trading Strategy Types | The Long & The Short Ep. 5

Welcome to The Long & The Short - a show where you can expect an honest take on trading, something you won’t hear elsewhere. I’m your host, Sandeep Rao (SEBI Registered Research Analyst – INH000013059). In this fifth episode of The Long & The Short, we take a step deeper into the trading landscape and explore the three foundational trading strategy archetypes: Trend Following, Mean Reversion, and Arbitrage. If you’ve ever wondered “What is this trade really trying to do?” — this episode gives you a simple lens to answer that question. Each archetype reflects a fundamental way in which markets behave, and nearly every strategy in existence is just a variation or a mix of these three. From Dutch merchants and Japanese rice traders to modern-day hedge funds and high-frequency shops, these ideas have stood the test of time.
