Composition

Summary

The Glider Trading Strategy is a fully systematic, directional strategy that is designed to participate in the strongest price movements available in the global futures market.

Investment Strategy

The aim of the Glider Trading Strategy is to participate in the strongest price movements among liquid futures and rotate into stronger price moves as opportunities arise. The Strategy processes collected data (Price, total and contract Volume and Open Interest) from over 120 futures by screening opportunities via a liquidity and ranking filter to generate its proprietary trading signals.

Risk Management

Glider Trading uses a pro-trend multi-dimensional risk analysis. New positions are taken only in the direction of an established trend. Risk is managed using both static and dynamic stops which allows profits to run and avoids profit targets. Risk is measured and monitored multi-dimensionally at a Portfolio, Future Group and Instrument level. The Glider Trading’s multi-dimensional risk analysis allows removal of excessive risk concentration.
