Momentum and Fundamental Trading (MAFT) Strategy
These basic steps include a number of inputs that are constantly analysed to improve market selection, timing, and risk management.
Conduct top-down analysis of markets
- Identify current technical trends across global benchmarks
- Find possible reversal points
- High level analysis of global macroeconomic data, global industry shifts, major monetary policies and geopolitical factors
Analyse market specific trends
- Identification of technical trends in industry benchmarks, country specific benchmarks, currencies, commodities and demographics
- Identification of turning points in the above
- Analysis of industry specific drivers behind the trends that are identified e.g. commodity supply and demand
Plan the trade and continually monitor its development
- Upon identifying an industry trend, products are placed on a watchlist which meet the proprietary technical criteria.
- Fundamental analysis is then conducted to validate the existence of a plausible shift in “value”.
- Finally, event risks are monitored for the specific products chosen.
