Trading Strategy: The Systematic Energy Diversified program comprises of 5 algorithms derived from the advisor's 10 years spent working at JP Morgan. The 5 algorithms focus on the movement of oil products around the world and forecasting future supply and demand. The program will trade futures and options on WTI, BRENT, Heating oil, and Gasoline. The algorithms look at the underlying fundamental data of each respective product and will identify trades within each product. The algorithms look at fundamental data in the energy markets. We are a very unique systematic strategy in that we don't use any technical analysis or standard price based indicators to identify opportunities Risk Strategy: Cayler Capital runs a complex VaR model to size the portfolio to target 15% annualized volatility. We look at historic 200d oil moves along with outlier moves over the last 10 years to evaluate risk. All trades are entered and exited on the close, so there is no intraday movement or change in the portfolio. 75% of VaR is dervied from relative value trades while only 25% is contributed from directional moves in the energy space.
