NWOne manages quantitative strategies in commodity and commodity-linked futures based on sound market fundamentals that are rigorously tested and confirmed using statistical/machine learning methods. 

NWOne - Strategies

Fundamental supply and demand imbalances, hedging activity by physical commodity traders, and financial flows from investors can cause commodity prices to temporarily deviate away from their fair value; By using rigorous statistical models augmented with deep fundamental insight into the individual commodity markets, we aim to capture the inefficiencies in a predictable and a repeatable manner using systematic trading frameworks.

Strategy 01
Directional Futures

Fundamental supply and demand driven modelling of each commodity combined with macro demand forecasts. Alpha capture around scheduled and un-scheduled events

​

Targets highest return during periods of high/transitory inflation. Positions in outright futures with holding period of 4-7 days

Strategy 02
Calendar Spreads

 Commodity inventory modelling combined with risk premium capture around producer/consumer hedging

​

​

Positions in calendar spread futures with holding period of 1-8 weeks
