RANGE STRATEGIES PROGRAM - PERFORMANCE
 
 Analyses

This program is composed of medium-term strategies that look to catch market reversals and take advantage of ranging market conditions. It utilizes both SSI-based and price-based strategies. While the risk of loss still exists, they are expected to perform well during ranging market conditions with medium to low volatility.

 Trading Style

The Short-Term Opportunity Aggressive Program aims to extract value from short term higher frequency strategies focusing on range and breakout conditions, while balancing the portfolio out with longer-term focused strategies.

The short term, higher frequency strategies by nature can be very volatile and may lose more frequently on a trade-by-trade basis; however, our back-tested results suggest that these strategies can compensate for such losses when profitable trades are found. The strategies separately look to take advantage of ranging and breakout markets so as not to depend fully on one market condition or the other. While these two short term components will tend to smooth each other out to some extent, both can still be very volatile strategies when analyzed independently from the longer term strategies.

The longer term components aim to provide a stable foundation and long term profitability as a backdrop for the shorter term strategies. These longer term components can nevertheless have extended periods of volatility and draw downs notwithstanding the fact that the strategies are more focused on the long term views and less sensitive to short term market noise. The longer term strategies themselves balance between general trending strategies and carry-focused strategies. This brings a stabilizing effect into the longer term component of the portfolio as there is a value component through trending strategies and a yield component through the carry focused strategies.
 


Performance results are based on the system employed by the account.

Past performance is not indicative of future results, as returns may vary according to market conditions. Trading in foreign exchange is speculative and may involve the loss of principal; therefore, assets placed under management should be risk capital funds that if lost will not significantly affect one's personal financial well being. This is not a solicitation to invest, and you should carefully consider the suitability of your financial situation for investment prior to making any investment or entering into any transaction.
