Description
This book is intended for the average investor who would like to gain a new perspective on the market. Traditionally, when we invest, we either buy or sell a stock, and then hope that it moves in our chosen direction. However, at times this strategy leaves us with a “naked” position that is simply at the mercy of the market. Thus, pairs trading offers a unique alternative, and allows the individual investor a way to “hedge” positions. Think about it for a moment. If you have a long and a short position, then you are technically market neutral. And if the broader indices fall 200 points—in theory—your position should still be “flat.” The goal is to protect our portfolios from dramatic market swings up or down, while finding stock relationship inequalities, in an effort to make money.
