The Managed Futures Portfolio Our FCM, PFGBEST.com, has developed a portfolio of managed futures products that are accessible to clients of various account sizes, risk tolerance and preferences. DeCarley Trading strongly believes in the potential of diversification and believes that this investing in a handful of managed futures and options programs is the most efficient means of lowering portfolio risk. If you haven't already, please review some of the basic principals of portfolio diversification through managed futures (Click here).
With the sources available, it will be possible to construct a portfolio of managed options and futures products that fit your personality, risk tolerance and amount of capital. In other words, with the alloted funding that you have opted to dedicate toward commodities and the guidance of the managed futures division a commodity portfolio will be constructed that spreads your money, and risk, among a handful of Commodity Trading Advisors (CTA), trading strategies and markets. In essence, this type of diversification is an attempt to reduce the overall volatility of your futures and options holdings. For instance, if volatilty explodes and option selling strategy may experience a significant drawdown while a swing trading strategy may prevail. An investor with interest in a CTA of each of these types would likely benefit from the negative correlation between the two strategies. If you are interested in speaking about the possibilities of investing in a portfolio of managed products, please contact a DeCarley Trading representative at 1-866-790-TRADE or email Carley Garner at cgarner@decarleytrading.com.
