Investment Strategy

The Insch Kintore Program is an entirely systematic trading program, which trades gold versus G7 currencies. Buy and sell signals are generated from price breakouts, volatility and other proprietary signals. Stop and reverse signals are taken as long as volatility constraints have not been exceeded. The system aims for a robust track record with consistent alpha, alongside non-correlated downside deviation when compared with gold investments.

Risk Management

The system incorporates a volatility filter. Following a price reversal, a signal is not generated if the exchange rate volatility (quantified by a proprietary volatility measure) exceeds certain pre-defined volatility bands. Each trade has a trailing stop, which ensures that losses are not allowed to accumulate.

   

Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. The risk of loss in trading commodity futures, options, and foreign exchange ("forex") is substantial.
