This criteria includes an analysis of fundamental and technical data relative to our assessment of a contracts expected value versus its current trading level. Historical volatility and price action are key determinants in timing and position sizing.Investment StrategyOne of our primary goals is to minimize drawdowns. We attempt to achieve this by maintaining risk management policies that pay special attention to position sizing and correlations among positions and markets. We are more interested in steady and progressive performance with low volatility than we are in big bets on events or news.Risk ManagementOur primary risk management tool is position sizing relative to account size. We maintain procedures for adjusting positions that are not performing relative to our forecasts and expectations. Our objective will quickly switch from profit to capital preservation when positions turn against us.
