About this strategy

Alkemy is a specialized professional-grade algorithm consisting of 8 high-performing multi-asset trading systems focusing on the SP500 index, international equities, bonds, bitcoin, hard & soft commodities, real-estate, carbon credits and US treasuries. Trading is scaled across a mix of market & limit-based systems relying on both price dynamics and the capture of derivatives pricing inefficiencies. This long-short algorithm offers 2 layers of risk management through the use of short positions and extreme decorrelation. Each trading system is autonomous and is rebalanced on a daily basis. Trade signals are issued in the morning preceding the next session and are to be placed or executed at the day session's opening. No trading occurs outside of regular trading hours. A maximum leverage of up to 2:1 is set by default.

No matter the heavy focus on enhancing returns and containing maximum drawdown, please understand that all risk-management claims rely on long-term historical volatility assumptions. Therefore, no risk-free or low-risk trading can be guaranteed at any time and unforeseen events can cause you to lose all your money.

Past results are not necessarily indicative of future results.

These results are based on simulated or hypothetical performance results that have certain inherent limitations. Unlike the results shown in an actual performance record, these results do not represent actual trading. Also, because these trades have not actually been executed, these results may have under-or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated or hypothetical trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to these being shown.
