Trading Description, Risk Strategy & Background
The focus of the trading program is a broad scope including: interest rates, currencies, metals, and energy, but does occasionally trade other mar- kets. Mr. Davis develops trading strategies that may include long or short futures positions as well as intra and inter-market spread positions. Options are frequently used to manage risk exposure or generate additional opportunities. Technical or chart analysis is generally used only to help determine entrance and exit points as Mr. Davis believes that fundamentals ultimately determine price movement.
