Hedge Fund

A hedge fund is a special type of fund with fewer restriction on the types of investments it can make.  Of particular interest is a hedge fund's ability to sell short.  In exchange for the ability to use more aggressive strategies, hedge funds are more exclusive and fewer people are allowed to invest in hedge funds.  Hedge funds have attracted a lot of attention recently because, in the last few years, they have generally been much more successful than traditional funds.

Our software was developed with the input from many hedge fund traders.  While their trading styles are all significantly different, they all have an interest in making technical analysis easier to use.
