Trading Strategy:
Every market has a pulse, a heartbeat, and moves through mathematical periods. These recurring periods influence short term market moves regardless of overall market trend. by using an algorithmic and automated trading strategy that takes advantage of these predictable periods and anticipates and captures short- to medium-term price movement. Astute Capital's proprietary software allows us to select only the most promising trades. Additionally, we consider trades when expected returns are better than their inherent risk. Preserving capital and protecting the fund remains the top priority at all times.
