Summary

The Vulcan Metals Strategy is a pure discretionary metals trading strategy managed by James Gallo, a NYMEX floor trader since 1987. Utilizing a global network of information on mining, usage, historical movements, and need, as well as proprietary research, the methodology is exacting yet flexible enough to capitalize on daily market irregularities. Vulcan trades a variety of metals including copper, gold, silver, platinum and palladium. Vulcan adapts to changing market conditions, the strategy employs intra-commodity spreads to yield additional low risk returns. Performance prior to June 2016 is proprietary pro forma for fees and commissions. DISCLAIMER: Performance prior to June 2016 is proprietary pro forma for 2/20 fees, at a 2.25M nominal account size, and an estimated $1,000 per month in extra commissions to reflect non-member rates by NAV Consulting, Inc. Performance thereafter is a composite of client accounts net of actual fees.

Risk Management
