Program Description: ICA is a pure intraday momentum program, focusing on large tail events in global equity indices, aiming to stay away from the average daily trading ranges that tend to be mean reverting. ICA is designed to benefit from big intraday moves to the upside as well as downside, generating pure alpha and providing hedging capabilities in times of crisis without the usual cost of an insurance premium. Trading only intraday and closing out all positions by the end of the trading session, ICA is extremely capital efficient and can be implemented on top of any portfolio without additional capital requirements. While the program has initially been developed and traded on the S&P 500 futures, it has matured into a global program, trading a total of 16 equity index futures in the uncorrelated intraday sessions in the US, Asia (added in 01/2019) and Europe (added in 11/2019).

+ NOTES: Pro-Forma returns shown are actual investment returns net of an assumed 1% annual management fee, payable monthly in arrears, and a quarterly performance fee of 20% of net new trading profits. ICA program returns prior to June 2018 represent the track record of ICA managed at Systematic Absolute Return AG by its founding principal Arne Schmidt and Michael Ahrndt, who joined Deep Field Capital in Q1 2018. Extracted returns (prior to June 2018) are that of ICA as a sub-component of the Systematic Volatility Arbitrage Program (VolArb), with a nominal of seventy percent of this program's assets, and hence being traded on 0.7x. Adjustments have been made to the actual 0.7x returns to scale up the leverage to a 1x to represent a 1x track record of the ICA Program as offered and traded by Deep Field Capital. Beginning June 2018, ICA returns represent the composite trading returns of all client accounts trading the ICA Program as a stand-alone program, managed by Deep Field Capital. The leverage adjustments make the returns hypothetical for the period prior to June 2018. Further information on the methodology for calculating the presented performance including original broker statements is available upon request.
