Powered by a unique and proprietary Sentiment-Aware mathematical physics framework that has a multi-decade history of extracting trading opportunities at the forefront of tomorrow’s most impactful and influential price trends and volatility events… events that have over 95% expectation of sustaining bullish or bearish price persistence over multi-time-line intervals.

Running Alpha employs its proprietary DarkSight Technology to reveal the minimum length of the risk-on and risk-off opportunity intervals. So unlike even today’s most advanced sentiment intelligence solution providers, Running Alpha goes beyond pigeon-holing opportunities into fixed holding period or time frames.

Markets are dynamic, and just because a statistical backtest showed that a specific time frame had a more favorable performance curve, does not mean that the groups of highly interacting decision-makers and their forward-looking versions, that are relevant to market dynamics today and tomorrow respectively, are the same ones that history has favored.

To circumvent this bottleneck that arises from the use of backward-looking statistical curve fitting and regression models, upon which virtually all conventional platforms and machine learning algos are founded to some degree, we play a different game, one that is:

Powered by a new category of actionable intelligence — known as Bottom-Down Perception Analytics (BDPA), branded under the trade-name DarkSight Technology. Unlike Statistical models, Running Alpha is a self-generative mathematical framework leveraging insights into both:

( i ) the architecture of time, as a function of entropy (such that as the size of the data set or history of transactions grows and evolves, which is especially the case in mature markets, like commodity and financial futures markets and Blue Chip Companies, the number of ways one can perceive changes in trend goes up, given there are more ways to partition time and adjust look-back viewing windows when constructing and interpreting trend measurements of market variables).

and

( ii ) the subtle non-linear physics surrounding the unseen, complex, dynamic and self-generating internal interactions among individual human-machine perspectives, for shedding light on Dark Data Perception Fields: fields of data that encode the relationship among sentiment perceptions of our future-selves — spanning the domain of the current and evolving trader population ecology — for rendering visibility into those corners of the marketplace where clusters of market players, observing market action and market structure in the future, will be making decisions to buy and sell in earnest, well before they get shared on on social media or mobilized into action in the order-book; before they form their intentions of actualizing their decisions; and even before they encode their perceptions of real-time market data.

Going beyond conventional mathematical game strategy frameworks for one upping your competitor in looking ahead additional moves, Running Alpha offers trader’s an unfair advantage in reverse engineering the long-range non-linear, multi-fractal interaction of human and machine decision-making. We are on a mission for hunting down the world’s most persistent Risk-Off and Risk-On Opportunity Windows — Running Alpha can see Critical State Transitions from Black Swan episodes of fear and anger to surprise, elation, and euphoria.

The story behind the Running Alpha BDPA innovation is unusual, and has its roots in what the founder, Efrem Hoffman, discovered when developing patented big data machine intelligence technology ( before it became a buzzword ), for hunting down impending signs of aviation weather and environmental hazards; and observing tight correlation patterns among precipitation and wind trajectories that underlie atmospheric turbulence and catastrophic F5 tornado vortex formations ( from high-dimensional atmospheric radar imagery ).

You may be wondering what this has to do with the movement of people, capital, and emotions in the world financial markets — Everything; we have over 100 years of data science to back this up and a history of helping clients accurately protect against Black-Swan events — showing that the correlation structure among bullish and bearish decision-maker perception biases at different scales of market observation come together first in the marketplace, each trading day, before they drive the transactions trends that most conventional media and market tools see and broadcast only later in hindsight.

With 20 years of real-life experience and mentoring by some of the most powerful and influential traders in the S&P and Bond Pits, we do this with a passion bent on actionable foresights — unlike any of our competitors can offer — by precisely quantifying and exploiting intrinsic unseen defects and inefficiencies in the way prevailing human and machine deep learning algorithms, and sentiment and volatility based research frameworks, are mathematically biased for unintentionally introducing persistent periods of lag ( under very special conditions and unstable market states ) into the forward-looking decision-making process.

We do all the heavy lifting, so that when you see an opportunity featured on the platform, you can be rest assured it meets our strict coverage criteria.

Our job at Running Alpha is to hone in on market instruments that exhibit long-range persistence of such critical states; thereby helping our subscribers take full advantage of these large-scale divergences between lagging perceptions and the reality of actualized outcomes.

What Makes Running Alpha’s Premium Capital Market Trends Service a New Category of Actionable Alpha Investment Intelligence?

Running Alpha’s Capital Market Trends Premium Subscription Service gives you significant lead time for building large positions; telling you exactly when and at what price levels Windows of Investment Opportunity open ( specific time and/or date ) and close ( specific time and/or date ) before market transitions from periods of fear and anger to asymmetric reward-to-risk intervals of persistent high-momentum recoveries, leading to periods of long-term sustainable growth trajectories — and

exhibiting a range of sentiment behaviors evolving from surprise ( shock and awe ) to elation, through euphoria. You will find bad news “climbing a wall of worry” and good news getting amplified in your favor during these forecasted Windows of Growth and/or Decay; thereby Significantly Lowering Portfolio Volatility and Generating Sharpe Ratios that are Off the Charts; and in some cases exceeding double digits.

In a very clutter free and concise format that has been a choice favored by professional money managers and active trading clients we work with, we include a level of actionable specificity that is a first within the finding alpha industry.

Knowing what to trade with over 95% conviction of directional bias and reward to risk outcomes on time and price targets, as well as when and when not to trade with or against the trend; and having the capability of putting on size at key low-risk decision-points, knowing that you can count on a reliable exit strategy based on dynamic holding intervals, that are designed to amplify directionally good news and lessen the impact of bad news ( less adverse volatility and faster recovery time from peak to trough) is only half the battle, and yes, we are dedicated to delivering on all these variables each trading day.

The biggest pain-points that we address lies not only in the presentation of this information in a format that is intuitive and easy to use and follow, but also lies in exploiting alternative data fields we track for helping you build trust and confidence in the investment / trading process.

Many traders with great strategies loose money because they do not have the confidence or trust in repeatedly following the process that led them to successful outcomes. I say this because virtually every other provider out there today may offer insights, but they do not do a great job at telling you how to augment them with your current strategy. Because there are so many strategies out there and nuances in their use, it has been extremely challenging for the industry as a whole to address this pain-point.

Running Alpha takes the concept of building trust to a new level, not only because the investment framework and trading parameters have a history of delivering consistent performance outcomes that are scientifically repeatable and beyond what is currently available in the marketplace, but more importantly because we offer alternative metrics for measuring performance that have a track record of not only shrinking the time it takes to build trust in the outcomes, but allowing investors to lower their anxiety when turning the insights into market actions.

By raising Anxiety-Adjusted Returns, Running Alpha is on a mission for leading the Fintech industry toward solutions that are organically designed for narrowing the gap between reported strategy success and actual investor alpha.

To address these challenges, Running Alpha employs strategies founded on an original multi-fractal variant of quantum mechanics, game theory, self-organized criticality ( within small and large scale networks of human and machine agents), and holographic intelligence.

Running Alpha is the first in the Global Fintech community to use such technologies for accurately identifying and quantifying special market states within laser-focused timing windows, where the ecology of traders and investors perceptions are likely to braid together in the order book, to create feedback loops that both amplify news outcomes and make what would ordinarily be interpreted as bad news or good new by individual decision-makers, translate into persistent market trends that “climb a wall of worry” or “descend a slope of hope,” respectively. and what would ordinarily be good or bad news, getting even more amplified.

By following large ( > 100 ) or concentrated basket of 15 to 20 securities from our coverage universe of over 7000 equities, you will quickly discover a significant asymmetry between the number and magnitude of out-sized winners and losers. So now rather than waiting for a stop to be hit or investment exit to trigger, to evaluate the success of the outcome, you can now access these additional sentiment-aware data points while the trade is developing. This way you can objectively verify if the anticipated feedback behavior of each position is consistent with the current market reaction to sentiment-moving news events.

What specific data fields are included for each security we cover in the Capital Market Trends Premium Subscription?

Market Instrument, Trading Symbol, High Conviction Directional Bias, Opening and Closing Times of the Bullish or Bearish Opportunity Windows, Activation Levels I and II ( when triggered above or below a specified price, it indicate whether Target 1 or Target2 will come into play), as well as interim proprietary overhead resistance and base-line support zones.

Having knowledge of these window lengths and hidden price zones, where market feedback and sentiment reactions to news events and evolving decision-maker perceptions amplify and reinforce trends, option traders can better identify appropriate strike prices above and below market, as well as select the most suitable expiration month.

One particular feature traders will find quite useful is that if they are planning to trade around core investment positions, each actionable investment idea presented has a specific optimal viewing resolution, such that if traders want to plot changes in market variables on their own charting or visualization platforms, they can now be confident that they are observing trends on the right scale.

The Running Alpha suggested time frame ( data sampling interval: note: duration of window opening and closing time goes beyond dictating suitable sampling intervals ); is also designed to align with the network structure of decision-makers perceptions, which can vary over time; and unlike conventional models of market behavior, we incorporate the dynamic effects that different market players with varying clout, influence, and perspectives can have on future market activity. We make it our business to maintain an active count of these variables in our forward-looking assessment of sentiment perception biases.

Having knowledge of the dynamic time frames that are most suitable to the current situation and forward market environment, you will start experiencing less anxiety and enhanced clarity from reduced levels of market noise, freeing up your working schedule during off peak periods, and giving you more time to stay focused on the relevant signal content during active market periods.

Armed with this new class of intelligence, we trust that you will be better prepared for making bold decisions with confidence — every investors dream, now made a reality with Running Alpha DarkSight Technology.

COMMISSION ADVISORY

Beware of Websites Selling Commodity Trading Systems that Guarantee High Profits with Minimal Risks. The United States Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), the federal agency that regulates commodity futures and options markets in the United States, has witnessed an increase in the number of Internet websites fraudulently promoting commodity trading systems and advisory services. Among other things, these websites falsely claim that advertised performance results are based on real trading when, in fact, the results are based on hypothetical trading. The CFTC urges you to be skeptical when promoters of trading systems and advisory services claim that their products and services will earn high profits with minimal risks. You also should be forewarned that systems which trigger frequent trading signals as part of a daytrading strategy can result in substantial commissions and fees.

NO TRADING SYSTEM CAN GUARANTEE PROFITS

Commodity trading systems typically are computerized programs that signal members of the public when to buy and sell commodity futures and options contracts. Systems produce buy and sell signals based on mathematical formulas and are typically based on technical analysis of trading data (trading volume and prices), as opposed to fundamental analysis (analysis of economic factors such as supply and demand). Trading systems that are based on technical analysis attempt to predict future price movements based on historical prices, price relationships and price trends. In deciding whether to purchase a particular trading system to trade commodity futures or options, members of the public should remember that no commodity trading system can guarantee profits. And, whether or not a trading system is used, commodity futures and options are typically high-risk endeavors.

HYPOTHETICAL TRADING RESULTS CAN BE UNRELIABLE

Many trading system promoters advertise their systems by reporting hypothetical trading results. Hypothetical trading results typically are based on trading simulations using historical price data or simulated “real time” computer trading. To obtain these results, trading system promoters typically pretend that they traded futures contracts at market prices that occurred some time in the past. They then calculate the trading results that these purported trades would have achieved had they been placed, based on actual historical prices. These results often show impressive trading results and large net profits with only a few, small margin calls.

Whether based on historical data or simulated “real time” trading, hypothetical results do not reflect the results of any actual trading. In other words, there is no actual futures account, no actual investment, no actual trading, and no actual profits. The results are purely the product of simulation.

Hypothetical trading results have several inherent limitations:

20/20 Hindsight with Historical Results — Since the trading systems that produced the results were not actually traded under real market conditions, the purported results fail to take into account market circumstances that affect traders and their decision-making process, such as anticipated news events that could have an impact on the supply, demand or price of the commodity.
“Real-time” is not Real — When marketing trading systems, some promoters claim that their systems have performed successfully in “Real-time Trading.” “Real-time Trading” only means that the system has been tested using a live data-feed, rather than being tested using historical market data. In “Real-time Trading,” however, no trades have actually been placed in the market. Performance results based on “Real-time Trading” are merely a form of hypothetical results, with the same limitations.

Financial Limitations — Hypothetical results may not adequately take into account the ability of a trader to absorb trading losses or to meet margin calls. Trading systems assume that the trader can withstand all losses generated by the system and can meet resulting margin calls. It is much easier to absorb a trading loss on paper (hypothetically) than to do so in reality. Many traders find it unacceptable to sustain several consecutive trading losses and/or margin calls. Moreover, in an actual trading environment, a trader’s financial condition may change over time and affect his or her ability to continue following a trading system.

Not Tested Under Real Market Conditions — Hypothetical trading results assume that futures contracts have been bought and sold at specific prices. Since these assumptions have not been subjected to actual market conditions, they may overestimate or underestimate the performance of a system. In addition, some market conditions may make it impossible to execute a trade. For instance, many systems assume that stop-loss orders will be executed at their stop price. Under actual market conditions a stop-loss order might be executed at a better or worse price, or not be executed at all. Further, actual market conditions include bid/ask spreads which might not be reflected in the prices used in hypothetical trading. Moreover, the actual execution of a trade could impact the price paid, especially in less liquid or illiquid markets.

Possible “Rigging” of Results — A member of the public should be alert to the possibility that the system promoter manufactured results by selecting historical trades that would have yielded the greatest returns.

Trading and System Costs — The profit claims of promoters may fail to take into consideration the cost of purchasing or leasing a trading system. While the prices of systems vary, many are sold for thousands of dollars. In addition, most of these systems require that the user obtain a data feed from a vendor. System promoters may also fail to take into consideration the impact on profits of commissions and fees charged by brokers in connection with futures and options trading. Such commissions can have a substantial effect on profitability, particularly when the system generates frequent trading signals. A user should take all of these costs into account because they raise the break-even point in trading.
Because of these limitations, CFTC Regulations require that the presentation of hypothetical trading results be accompanied by a specific cautionary statement warning of the inherent limitations of these results.

FUTURES CONTRACTS ARE VOLATILE AND RISKY

Persons considering trading commodity futures or options should educate themselves about futures and options and realize that they may lose large sums of money. Remember: “If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is too good to be true.” The following checklist should help consumers in deciding whether to use a trading system.

IS A FUTURES/OPTIONS TRADING SYSTEM RIGHT FOR YOU?

Do you have the financial ability to sustain trading losses and meet margin calls? When trading futures contracts on margin, you risk losing much more money than the initial margin amount. If the market moves against you, you may be required to pay additional funds. The use of margin creates potentially large exposures to loss.
Can you lose your entire investment and more without a change in your lifestyle?
Do the trading results sound too good to be true?
Are the advertised trading results based on actual trading or “hypothetical” trading?
Has any trader used the system in actual trading? If so, how has the trader fared?
Will the system promoter provide you with independent verification of the claimed trading results?
What is the total cost of the system?
Have you factored into your purchasing decision the impact of commissions and fees that can result from frequent trading?
What are the additional costs (data feed, etc)?
 

Not all system promoters are required to be National Futures Association (NFA) members or registered with the CFTC. A call to the NFA (800-621-3570 or 800-676-4NFA) or the CFTC, or a visit to the NFA’s website at http://www.nfa.futures.org/basicnet/, can confirm the status of a particular promoter.

Have you checked with the NFA whether the system promoter has been disciplined by commodity regulators?

The Federal Trade Commission’s Advisory – Day Trading Ads: Cutting Through the “Bull”

Updated February 1, 2001

 

Finally, In Case You Were Not Clear About the Risk of Trading, this Summary of the Above is also Included:

RISKS OF ACTIVE TRADING:

All of the Strategies are Presented “as is”. Be careful when setting up full automation to make choices that fit YOUR risk taking ability.

You should carefully consider the following points before engaging in an active trading strategy or what is sometimes called “day trading”.

Active trading or day trading may be described as engaging in frequent purchase and sale transactions (at least several per week and, for some active traders, often numerous transactions per day) using systematic or strategic approaches.

* Active trading has a very high level of risk. Active trading generally is not appropriate for someone of limited resources or limited investment or trading experience of low-risk tolerance. You should be prepared to lose all of your funds that you invest in your trades.

In particular, you should not fund this type of trading with retirement savings, student loans, second mortgages, emergency funds, funds set aside for purposes such as education or home ownership, or funds required to meet your living expenses.

* Be cautious of claims of large profits from active trading. You should be wary of advertisements or other statements that emphasize the potential for large profits from active trading. Active trading may result in few or no profits, and worse, may lead to large financial losses very quickly.

* Active trading requires sophisticated knowledge of securities markets. Active trading requires in-depth knowledge of the securities markets and of sophisticated and disciplined trading techniques and strategies. Also you must compete with professional, licensed traders employed by securities firms and other knowledgeable, experienced and well-trained traders. You should have appropriate knowledge and experience before engaging in active trading.

* Active trading requires in-depth knowledge of your broker’s operations. An important part of executing active trading strategies is the quality and consistency of the order execution services you use. Whether you use the services of professional brokers or electronic systems, your success will be affected by their strengths and weaknesses and the methods and practices of the brokerage firm in executing trades. You should develop an intimate knowledge of these matters before you engage in active trading.

* Active trading may result in you paying large commissions. You pay commissions on each trade you make. The more actively you trade, the more commissions will increase your losses or reduce your profits.

* Active trading on margin or short selling may result in losses beyond your initial investment account amount. When you actively trade with borrowed funds, you can lose more than you originally placed as risk. A decline in the value of the securities that are purchased may require you to provide additional funds to avoid the forced sale of those securities or other securities or collateral in or for your account. Short selling as part of your trading strategy also may lead to large losses, because you may have to purchase a stock at a very high price in order to cover a short position.

* You may sustain a total loss of the funds you deposit with your broker to establish or maintain a position in the commodity futures market; and you may incur losses beyond these amounts! If the market moves against your position, you may be called upon by your broker to deposit a substantial amount of additional margin funds, on short notice, in order to maintain your position. If you do not provide the required funds within the time required by your broker, your position may be liquidated at a loss, and you will be liable for any resulting deficit in your account.

* Under certain market conditions, you may find it difficult or impossible to liquidate a position. This can occur, for example, when the market reaches a daily price fluctuation limit (“limit move”).

* The above is not a complete list of the risks in trading. And you should further consult your broker concerning the nature of the protections available to safeguard funds or property deposited for your account.

THIS BRIEF STATEMENT CANNOT, OF COURSE, DISCLOSE ALL THE RISKS AND OTHER ASPECTS OF THE COMMODITY AND FUTURES MARKETS.

In summary, active trading is not a game. It is not recommended for inexperienced traders or for persons who do not have sufficient resources and time to devote to their trading activities. Active trading is a serious commitment that should not be undertaken unless you are able to handle high risk and high stress well, and are willing to consistently adhere to objective and disciplined trading strategies and approaches.
