The CMAC 1R trading program was designed with the clear objective of combining and employing a number of different short-term trading strategies in one trading model. The model seeks to preserve and appreciate investor capital steadily and consistently. CMAC 1R primarily trades the Major “G7” currencies listed below. Our program will focus mainly on trading these currencies against each other, though we will not limit ourselves from trading other “exotic pairs” if the opportunities arise:

 

US dollar (USD), Euro (EUR), Great British Pound (GBP), Japanese Yen (JPY), Canadian dollar (CAD), Swiss Francs (CHF), and the Australian dollar (AUD).

 

The CMAC 1R collection of strategies are predominantly quantitative in nature, and utilize a wide selection of technical indicators, used to analyze the markets on time frames ranging from 1 minute to 1 hour.  CMAC 1R’s objective is to enter and exit all trades within the same day (24 hour cycle), with the focus being on minimizing the open market risk exposure both with regard to time and trade size. We will employ different strategies during various trading sessions (i.e. Asia, Europe, London, USA).

 

Regarding the risk management of the CMAC 1R model, mandatory procedures are completed prior to entering all trades. The exact profit being targeted and expected loss exposure allowed in each trade is calculated. Based on these variables, a trade is entered with the appropriate trade size, having a predetermined maximum amount being risked in each and every trade. No trade will be entered without a protective stop loss. The model will exit all trades if the equity balance is ever reduced by 5% of its beginning balance in a given day or week. The program’s management team will then assess the issue with the broker, market, signal and/or system being used and ensure the problem has been addressed and resolved before re-entering the markets.

 

CMAC 1R allows for clients to leverage their investments through the use of notional funding, up to 4x the base amount. Please review the notional funding description in our disclosure document for more details.

 

This aggressive level of the program, allowing for the use of notional funding of 4x the base amount will be referred to as the CMAC 4R program.
