THE FIRST
PROFESSIONAL AUTOMATION PLATFORMS
TO BE OFFERED TO
Hedge funds
|
|
 |
| |
| The Offering |
|
| StrategyBot, in
cooperation with leading
research groups, has compiled
portfolios of trading systems,
each representing a broad
spectrum of fully automated strategies and
methods. This, combined with
robust auto-execution, provides
investors with the first
complete automated investment program,
where investors choose
portfolios of trading systems,
and the computer trades for
them.
Numerous
studies* shows that diversification
into non-correlated investment
assets, that seek to
be profitable in both
bull and bear markets, provides
the opportunity for reduced
portfolio risk and
the potential for enhanced
portfolio returns.
Providing
similar benefits to those
offered by hedge funds
that are available only
to high-net worth individuals,
this type of automated
investment is suitable
for accounts as small
as $10K. It also provides
a daily liquidity for
reallocation or withdrawal
of investment, and the
possibility to monitor
the systems' performance
in real-time. Plus, daily profit
and loss parameters can
be controlled during
the day by specifying
automatic money management
rules. |

| Investment in Trading Systems |

- THE
OFFERING: We
have compiled portfolios
of trading systems
designed by leading
research groups,
each representing
a broad spectrum
of fully automated strategies and
methods. State-of-the-art
back testing tools,
combined with robust
execution, provide
investors with the first
complete automated
investment program,
where investors choose
portfolios of trading
systems, and the
computer trades for
them.
- HOW
IT WORKS: Investors
can tailor their
portfolio of fully automated strategies
to best suit their
investment needs
and either monitor
it themselves, or
have an experienced
broker do it for
them. The StrategyBot
server at the FCM's
premises trades the
strategies, and clients
can track results
and control their
portfolios in real-time.

Based on numerous studies, a portfolio
with an allocation of
at least 5-10% of its
total investment in
a non-correlated alternative asset will have a
higher return and lower risk than one without. |
|
|
| Benefits of System Investments |
|
- NON-CORRELATED: System
investments seek to be
profitable in both bull
and bear markets. In
other words, profit or
loss in trading systems
is not dependent on economic
cycles and whether prices
are rising or falling.
Therefore historically,
trading systems have
had very little correlation
to the stock and bond
markets.
- RISK
/ RETURN: While
there is no guarantee
of positive performance
in the trading systems
component of a portfolio,
the non-correlation
characteristic of
the trading systems
and their ability
to make profits in
any economic environment provide
the opportunity for
reduced portfolio
risk and the
potential for enhanced
portfolio returns.

- TRADING
SYSTEMS: Trading
systems designed
by professionals
are built using StrategyBot's new generation
of back-testing tools.
Using compression/decompression
techniques, these
tools provide speed
and quality of simulation
using years of historical
tick-price data,
and new optimization
possibilities, unavailable
until now.
- AUTO-EXECUTION: Fully automated strategies
reside on a server at
the FCM's premises, connected
via a direct line to
the exchange, which means
there are no delays or
interruptions in the
execution of your orders.
Trading multiple fully automated strategies
on multiple markets on
this highly scalable
platform allows investors
to monitor and control
their real-time performance
through the Internet.

| Comparison to Hedge Funds |
|
- NO
HIGH ENTRY REQUIREMENTS: An
account size as small
as $10K is sufficient,
compared to the traditional
minimal hedge fund
requirement of $250K.
It has daily liquidity
that enables reallocation
of systems, compared
to monthly and sometimes
quarterly hedge fund
requirements.
- TRANSPARENCY: The
StrategyBot platform
allows clients to monitor
their systems' performance
in real-time. In addition,
all portfolio results
are published throughout
the trading session on
participating brokers' websites,
providing tick-by-tick
transparency of the daily
performance.
- CONTROL
AND MONEY MANAGEMENT: Profit
and loss can be controlled
during the day by
automatically specifying
money management
rules. Based on real-time
information, investors
can choose to reallocate
their portfolio using
systems from various
research groups.
