Summary

-Accounts are partially funded with approximately 30% of the account balance on deposit with the broker. The above performance does not include interest income on the remaining 70% (notional funds) held by the client. Trading Objectives The goals of M.S. Capital Management Limited ("MS") are: To generate solid risk adjusted returns with low correlation to traditional asset classes; To provide a potential hedge against inflation; To ensure longevity by using robust trading methods.

Investment Strategy

Trading Methodology MS' trading strategy attempts to capture significant price changes in futures and forward markets. This strategy can be categorized as a medium to long term trend following approach. Computerized technical trading models are used to generate trade signals. These models analyse price data and utilize both trend following and pattern recognition algorithms. The models are diversified across time frames and are applied across all markets in the portfolio. Market diversification is a key component of the trading approach. A globally diversified portfolio of futures and forward markets is traded. Individual market weighting within the portfolio is dependant on price correlation to other markets in the same sector, and on sector correlation to other sectors in the portfolio. Markets are selected based on the amount of diversification offered, execution cost, and regulatory environment.

Risk Management

MS believes risk control is an important component of the trading approach and applies risk management strategies to control risk on 4 levels: individual position risk, market risk, group risk, and portfolio risk. Each position is sized to keep risk within preset levels. Within any one market the sum of the individual position risks is monitored and controlled as is the risk within each market sector and the total risk across the entire portfolio. Occasionally, when there appears to be an unusually high reward/risk situation in a particular market, discretion is utilized to increase, and later decrease, the risk allocation to that market. A guiding theme through all system design is that of robustness. MS believes the key to high returns is compounding over time. This can only be achieved with a system that doesn't break down when it encounters adverse conditions, as it inevitably will.
