Investment Strategy

Arktos is a highly liquid quantitative trading strategy which seeks to determine the highest probability move for six currency pairs. The strategy was developed by its two principals, Nick Bloom and Simon Harris, focussing on diversification, liquidity and transparency for investors.

Key Characteristics

- Currency Pairs include: EURUSD, USDJPY, EURJPY, GBPUSD, EURCHF and USDCAD
- Each currency pair has a set of characteristics that are systematically reviewed, assessed, and weighted on a daily basis.
- The system generates a directional bias (buy/sell signal) for the following trading session.
- Price Volatility analysis determines an entry, exit and stop level for each pair independently.

Risk Management

Money and risk management are key components of the strategy and trading levels are adjusted automatically to conform to a fixed daily risk budget. There is maximum daily risk limit per individual pair and intra-month drawdown limits at the portfolio level.

   

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