  1. Seems like it consistently is in the top 5....
     
  2. ////Tulip Trend Fund invests pursuant to the Diversified Trend Program (DTP) of its trading advisor Transtrend B.V. This is a purely systematic medium-term trend following strategy.

    Tulip Trend Fund trades two times the Enhanced Risk profile of the trading advisor’s DTP.

    The strategy aims to exploit price trends in a wide variety of markets, irrespective of the direction of the markets, in a systematic and disciplined way. The fund might be positioned long, short or neutral in any of the traded markets.

    Tulip Trend Fund’s strategy is applied to a highly diversified investment universe consisting of global futures, forward markets and swaps. The strategy looks for opportunities in outright markets as well as in combinations of markets.

    Transtrend B.V. is a well-established asset manager with assets under management of approximately USD 6.1 billion (including notional funds) as of August 2016 with a track record of DTP going back to 1992. Transtrend’s experienced team consists of more than 60 qualified professionals working with a state-of-the-art infrastructure.//

  5. Tulip Trend Fund is the 2x leveraged feeder fund for Transtrend.
    PS: I attended their presentation once, the marketing girl, albeit being pretty, said clueless stuff like: 'CTA is trend following'
    But in general they seem to be a decent shop, owned by Robeco/Orix

    Actually lackluster since 2009.
    Almost 8 years now, they have averaged about 1% a year.

    Before 2009 they were killing it.
    Markets are no longer trending as often as they did in the good old days (pre 2009).
