Systematic Alpha Management Introduces Systematic Alpha Intraday Program

NEW YORK--()--Systematic Alpha Management (SAM) has been successfully trading the Systematic Alpha Intraday Program live on the dbSelect platform. The program carries no risk, positions, or margin overnight.

“The intraday program is a unique investment offering which, in contrast to most CTAs, generates its trading signals based on the changes in volatility in a particular market, as opposed to price changes," noted Peter Kambolin, SAM’s CEO.

“One of the reasons our returns are often negatively correlated to other managers is because the intraday program avoids having any risk overnight, which on average represents up to 40% of the daily risk, but is hard to predict and manage,” noted Dr. Alexei Chekhlov, SAM's Head of Research and Portfolio Manager.

“The diversification we achieve by trading both momentum and contrarian signals across various equity indexes, currencies, commodities and fixed income markets allows us to generate a Sharpe Ratio superior to most of our competitors,” noted Peter Kambolin. “Coupled with zero-to-negative correlation to other managers and daily liquidity, the intraday program is an ideal fit to an investment portfolio.”
