Summary

The Chiron Currency Program is intraday only and trades G10 currencies. Execution is done in the highly liquid spot market with trades then EFPd into futures contracts so clients do not need dedicated FX accounts. The strategy is almost 100% systematic and acts as a liquidity provider within a clearly defined daily risk budget. The system dynamically applies risk weightings which reduce exposure in adverse market environments. The system trades a diversified basket of currencies based on a quantitatively-determined directional bias with a volatility-based cash management model setting pre-defined entry, exit, and stop levels for each trade within a daily risk budget.

Investment Strategy

The Chiron Currency Program is a quantitative day trading strategy which seeks to determine the highest probability single-day move for a diversified basket of currency pairs. Each currency pair has a set of characteristics that are systematically reviewed, assessed, and weighted on a daily basis and then used to generate a directional bias for the next day’s trading session. Chiron only trades in highly liquid G10 currencies and acts as a provider of liquidity rather than a consumer.

Risk Management

Independent price volatility analysis determines dynamic levels for entry, exit, and stops for each pair within a clearly defined daily risk budget at both the individual pair level and at the portfolio level. All levels are predetermined and are placed in advance and thus, not execution speed dependent. The system also dynamically reduces risk ahead of potential inflection points such as rate announcements, central bank speeches, and economic news releases. All positions are exited daily to avoid any overnight risk.
