Transworld Capital Management Limited’s trading methods are proprietary and confidential. The following description is of necessity and is not intended to be exhaustive.

 

The High Liquidity Program is trading contracts that normally are very liquid, such as the E-mini S&P 500 futures and Treasury Notes Futures, so a large volume can usually be traded without slippage being of a significant concern. There are a number of systematic proprietary models used to determine these trades and as such there is not one way to describe the underlying methodology but will include trading both with, and counter to the trend at times. Generally trades will be shorter term in nature with most trades being completed round trip within a one to three day time frame however some trades may last longer at times. While the methods used are systematic in nature some discretion may be applied in modifying the underlying methods used and contracts traded and the advisor may choose to reduce or suspend trading during what may be seen as unusually high risk periods in the market. The minimum capital has been set to try to find a modest balance for draw down and returns as a percentage of the minimum however participants may prefer to use some notional capital or others a larger amount than the minimum for each unit traded to be in line with their own objectives and risk tolerance.

 

The principal commodities to be traded are Stock Index Futures and Treasury Bond Futures however, Transworld Capital Management reserves the right to trade any and all commodity futures contracts, futures spreads and options on futures. Transworld Capital Management will make decisions such as when to add or delete a commodity from his trading list due to an increase or decline in volatility and/or liquidity or when to stop trading a particular contract month and begin trading another. This Advisor will not trade forex, Exchange for Physicals or Security futures products in this program.
