  • Trading Strategy: The program trades a globally diversified portfolio of commodities and currencies with the objective of seeking above average long-term growth unrelated to stocks and bonds. Physical commodities represent over half of the portfolio weighting. The Program is based upon capturing hedgers' risk premium and employs an extra-long term, systematic methodology in which it is not uncommon to hold positions (with rolls) for over a year. Risk Strategy: Money management deals with all aspects of equity management and risk control. It is vital to the System and is integrated from the ground up. The System uses proprietary, advanced money management and risk control strategies. Overall portfolio risk exposure is constantly reassessed; stop loss orders are placed whenever a trade is entered and once placed, never retreat from the market; a sophisticated variation of constant percentage risking is used which results in an initial average risk of less than 1.0% of account equity per trade.
