Trend Funds Destroyed in 2012

Let's look at monthly gold chart as an example. Obviously, it's rangebound during the last couple of years... but what about before? :)

Guess any speculative approach has periods of good and bad performance, that's inevitable and good/bad years also depend on time scale at which a particular fund operates...

Don't see any reasons why some instruments can't have huge trends any time in future.

You can't be serious. You are using a guy who trades in his IRA account ( like everyone else) to refute the performance of the giant, trend following funds? You do understand the difference, right?
