Tools to Help You Rank and Analyze CTAs

Altegris’s managed futures capability is centered on finding what we believe to be high quality Commodity Trading Advisors (CTAs), and high quality managed futures programs, to enable our clients to successfully diversify their portfolios.

Managed Futures Research Tools

With this in mind, we have built a suite of technological tools that allow us to gather and analyze data on thousands of individual CTA programs and other alternative investments, and that enable our clients to compare and track their investments.

Detailed Information for the Programs on Our Platform

Through the Altegris Private Investment Arena, investors can easily browse and compare detailed information on a customized set of CTA programs chosen from the Altegris approved platform, including performance track records, strategy, manager bios, manager presentations, commentaries and more.

Contract-by-Contract Position Analysis for CTA Investments

Our AltegrisNet software gives managed account investors the ability to analyze positions on a contract-by-contract basis for investments on the Altegris platform. The software also allows Altegris clients to monitor cumulative profit and loss, single manager contributions to total performance, and capital accounting.

Customized Portfolio Proposals Upon Request

The ManagedFutures.com team can create, upon request, a customized portfolio allocation document, which provides an easy way to compare and analyze individual managed futures programs in the context of a multi-product allocation. Many of our clients find this to be a useful tool in the examination of inter-portfolio correlations, and to summarize a proposed investment.

There are substantial risks and conflicts of interests associated with Managed Futures and commodities accounts, and you should only invest risk capital. The success of an investment is dependent upon the ability of a commodity trading advisor (CTA) to identify profitable investment opportunities and successfully trade. The identification of attractive trading opportunities is difficult, requires skill, and involves a significant degree of uncertainty. CTAs have total trading authority, and the use of a single CTA could mean a lack of diversification and higher risk. The high degree of leverage often obtainable in commodity trading can work against you as well as for you, and can lead to large losses as well as gains. Returns generated from a CTA’s trading, if any, may not adequately compensate you for the business and financial risks you assume. You can lose all or a substantial amount of your investment. If you use notional funding, you may lose more than your initial cash investment. Managed Futures and commodities accounts may be subject to substantial charges for management and advisory fees. It may be necessary for accounts that are subject to these charges to make substantial trading profits in order to avoid depletion or exhaustion of their assets. The disclosure document contains a complete description of each fee to be charged to your account by a CTA. CTAs may trade highly illiquid markets, or on foreign markets, and may not be able to close or offset positions immediately upon request. You may have market exposure even after the CTA has a request for closure or liquidation. PAST RESULTS ARE NOT NECESSARILY INDICATIVE OF FUTURE RESULTS.
