WSO,
Is it possible to follow trades of top hedge fund managers and make mulah from the ripple effect a.k.a noise trading?
I have heard numerous times that most hedge fund managers follow the top dogs. But hows that possible? Hedge funds have to file the SC 13D/A with SEC after two weeks after they trade.
So how do other hedge funds copy trades?

How do I find the 13-D? For most funds I'm only finding the 13-F on Edgar search.

hope you're getting the name of the hedge funds right
Its possible, you have to know their top traders styles. People might think that they don't follow a trading pattern, however most people do infact trade certian ways.
shhhhh, stop giving away all the good strategies :P
yea but you cant copy them in real time right? i just don't get how they say "follow the smart money"....wtf is that?
It's almost impossible to follow them in real time, it's an older saying, think pre hft, when people could see the upticks on trading software and if they knew the market could guess who the players were based on the size and frequency of the trades.
