Program Description: The MCA Strategy is designed to identify trends in the futures markets by using multiple independent intra-day and position trading models. MCA's key strategy is pinpointing when a new price trend is about to commence or when an existing trend is coming to an end. This strategy can be employed across all baskets of commodities but tends to avoid those that are illiquid. Given that that the MCA program is a trend following strategy, the trades can last a couple of days to a couple of months. The program trades a widely diversified portfolio which may include, but is not limited to, livestock, agriculture, energy, metals, stock indices and currency futures.
