Summary

J.D. Turner Capital’s Diversified Trend Following Strategy employs systematic trend-following with dynamic risk-managed exposure to a diverse range of commodities, interest rates, currencies, and stock indices within 17 traded markets.

We utilize systematic option hedging tactics to mitigate adverse price movements, reducing short-term volatility and potential drawdowns while maintaining a directional bias to capture sustained market trends. Our approach prioritizes protecting unrealized gains during favorable market conditions and adapts to evolving market dynamics.

Capital is dynamically allocated based on account size, average volatility metrics, correlations, and potential directional risk. The trend models applied to each market are entirely technical, relying solely on price and price derivative data.

Positions are held only for the lifespan of each futures contract, with no rolling. This keeps execution simple, reduces cost, and avoids curve-related distortions.

This flexible and reactive strategy aims to deliver a balance between potential returns and risk control, making it a robust across diverse market environments.

The 17 traded markets include but are not limited to:

Australian Dollar Futures, British Pound Futures, Euro FX Futures, Corn, Soybeans, Wheat, Natural Gas, Crude Oil, Live Cattle, Feeder Cattle, Lean Hogs, Russell 2000 Index, S&P 500 Index, Gold, Silver, 2 Year U.S Treasury Note, 5 Year U.S Treasury Note
