Transtrend. Market understanding.

A specialist

Transtrend manages an active trend-based trading strategy. Our trading approach is the result of more than 30 years of experience in researching markets and managing assets for our clients — the result of actively moving with the markets.

The origins of our company go back to a research project, set up with a team of experienced traders and quantitative analysts in 1987 within a Rotterdam-based commodities trading company.

In 1992 this work resulted in our Diversified Trend Program. Over the years, Transtrend has evolved into a leading CTA serving many professional investors worldwide.
