Trading Strategy: The ARCM Ionic Strategy is a "Whole Portfolio" multi-strategy concept designed to deliver superior returns and lower drawdowns than a traditional investment portfolio. It is composed 3 components: Long Equity Index Futures (such as SP500 and Nasdaq100), Long Fixed Income Futures (such as 30 yr. US Treasury Bonds), and the ARCM Diversified Momentum Component. Ionic's purpose is to deliver the aggregate return/risk of a diversified Core Holdings Investment Strategy AND an Alternative Managed Futures Strategy within a single futures-based account. The Diversified Momentum Component uses a systematic quantitative approach, to trade and strictly manage risk across a current universe of 29 futures contracts in 8 market sectors (Financial Instruments - Govt. Securities, Foreign Currencies, Stock Indexes, Grains, Metals, Energies, Meats, and Soft Commodities). Risk Strategy: Risk Management is the most important factor in our decision-making process. Our algorithms monitor and strictly manage the risk of individual trades, sector risk and overall account position.
