About this strategy

This is a discretionary, long/short equity trading system. Portfolio positions will often be scaled into using 2-3 tranches, possibly spanning hours or days. There will be occasional day-trading opportunities when market conditions are favorable toward doing so, where a trade will be entered and closed intra-day.

This system is not purely mechanical, and relies on human expertise before deciding to enter a trading position. This trading system has been developed over the last decade by a finance professional with significant experience in the financial sector and managing money. The manager began their career as a professional securities trader at a hedge fund and has been actively trading the market and creating portfolio strategies ever since.

The Texas Doubledown trading system will shift from direction oriented to market neutral strategies depending on the opportunity set provided by the markets. The portfolio manager excels at trading volatility, special situations, and maintaining disciplined entry and exit points. Returns and trading activity will coincide with the opportunities presented as demonstrated by the substantial returns associated with the high volatility in oil in Q1.

I recommend a minimum account size of $25,000 to effectively trade this system as designed.

Portfolio Guidelines:
Margin: Opportunistic
Risk: Medium - Medium/High
Long Position Management: 20% Cap gains before realizing profit. 10% Max loss per position.
Short Position Management: 15% Cap gains before realizing profit. 10% Max loss per position.
Position Size: No Position over 20% of total portfolio value.
Market Neutrality: Remain mostly neutral
Trade Frequency: Between 10-25/Month
Order Type: Mostly limit, market orders in more liquid securities
Targeted Position Number: 15 or less
Total Return Goal: 50% Annual Return
Drawdown Goal: <20%

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.
