DMH Futures Management is a
short-term discretionary trading
program, trading in 30 domestic
(U.S.) futures products including
currency, energy, agriculture,
livestock, stock index, interest
rate and metal markets.
The program utilizes technical
analysis of price and study
patterns as well as disciplined
risk reward analysis to subjectively
determine whether a trade should
be implemented. Trades
are made either with the prevailing
trend or, when there is an indication
of a reversal in the prevailing
trend which offers a low risk,
high return reward, a counter
trend would be initiated.
Trades may be held from several
hours to several weeks.
|
Program Description:
Technical vs. Fundamental
Analysis |
The program will use "technical"
analysis based on the theory
that a study of the markets
themselves provides a means
of anticipating price movements.
Technical analysis used by the
Advisor includes, but is not
limited to, Elliot Wave analysis,
Fibonacci retracements, divergences,
Commodity Channel Index, Momentum,
moving averages and pattern
analysis.
The Advisor will also consider
"fundamental" analysis.
Fundamental analysis considerations
relate to the underlying economic
and political forces that ultimately
determine the true value of
a particular financial instrument
or commodity.
|
Program Description:
Risk Management |
Effective risk management is
a crucial aspect of the trading
program. With the goal of limiting
potential loss, the Advisor
uses calculated risk assessment
techniques. Account size, expectation,
volatility of market traded
and the nature of other positions
taken are all factors in deciding
whether to take a position and
determining the amount of equity
committed to that position.
Protective
stops are used to control risks.
Trades are made either within
the prevailing trend or, when
there is an indication of a
reversal in the prevailing trend
which offers a low risk, high
return reward, a counter trend
trade will be initiated. Trades
can be held from several hours
to several weeks or months.
DMH Futures Management's trading
program is discretionary and
determines trades subjectively
on the basis of personal judgment
and trading experience. Therefore,
the success of trading depends
largely on the trading ability
of the Advisor and its trading
principal. The Advisor will
exercise its judgment and discretion
in interpreting and applying
its program and will make all
decisions regarding the trading
of commodity interests. In addition,
the Advisor will determine the
time at which orders are to
be placed with and executed
by a broker, the method by which
orders are to be placed, the
types of orders that are to
be placed and the overall leverage
for the portfolio.
Decisions made by the Advisor
will be based on an assessment
of available facts. However,
because of the large quantity
of facts at hand, the number
of available facts that may
be overlooked and the variables
that may shift, any investment
decision must, in the final
analysis, be based on the judgment
of the Advisor.
|
Program Description:
Markets Traded |
DMH Futures Management
trades in all global exchange
traded futures products, including,
but not limited to, the following
markets: grain, meat, foodstuff,
fiber, lumber, metals, interest
rate, currency, energy and stock
index markets. The markets in
which the Advisor will trade
may grow and there are no restrictions
on such growth. The preference
of a trade will depend upon
which market the Advisor determines
will provide the best opportunities
for profit.
The decision by the Advisor
not to trade certain markets
or not to make certain trades
may result at times in missing
price moves and hence profits
of great magnitude, which other
trading managers who are willing
to trade these commodities may
be able to capture. The Advisor's
approach is dependent in part
on the existence of certain
technical or fundamental indicators.
There have been periods in the
past when there were no such
market indicators, and those
periods may recur.
The trading program utilized
by the Advisor is proprietary
and confidential. The foregoing
description is of necessity
general and is not intended
to be exhaustive. Consequently,
clients of the Advisor will
not be able to determine the
full details of this method,
or whether this method is being
followed. There can be no assurance
that any trading strategy of
the Advisor will produce profitable
results or will not result in
losses.
DMH Futures Management, LLC
was formed by three veteran
futures industry professionals
with a goal of providing a managed
account structure that would
offer clients a low risk, low
volatility program with consistent
