J.D Turner Capital’s Diversified Trend Following Strategy seeks to combine traditional and modern trend following to find stronger trends and weaker correlation. The methodology offers market-neutral exposure to a broad market of commodities, interest rate, currency, and stock index futures within 17 traded markets.

Risk Management:

The system uses a systematic approach in risk management, deploying systematic option hedging tactics. Capital is dynamically allocated within our strategy based on account size, averaged volatility metrics, correlation and potential directional risk. The trend models used to trade each market are technical: based purely on price and price derivative data.

Returns prior to August, 2023 are based on proforma adjustments to a proprietary account to reflect fees. Client accounts, from August 2023 on, are traded in like fashion.

The original model (from Jan 2020 to Dec 2021) was based on pure trend following and has evolved to include new risk management models employed in January 2022 to reduce volatility and risk. The current model uses a systematic approach in risk management, deploying systematic option hedging tactics, in addition to lower margin-equity targets from 30% to 15%.

Since inception of new risk management models, max drawdown has decreased from -46.5% (2/20-6/21) to -10.11% (5/23-9/23) as of March 31st 2024.
