Allocations

Since our inception, we have allocated risk capital to numerous trading strategies. These trading strategies are all proprietary to the algorithmic creators. They include ETF, long-short, alternative data, earnings, and other strategies that have the capacity to scale up to large trading allocations. The amount allocated to a trading strategy varies by day based upon the performance of the algorithm. Strategies experiencing drawdowns have allocations reduced. Those making money receive increasing risk capital.

Alogo Allocation

Trade allocations represent the maximum risk capital that CloudQuant will use for a given trading algorithm based on our estimate of the algorithm’s capacity. Actual allocations vary based upon portfolio construction and performance considerations in accordance with the license agreements between CloudQuant and our algorithm creators/owners.

Requirements

To request an allocation you must show a backtest that meets these simple requirements:

2 Year Backtest
500 Trades
Sharpe Ratio of 1.25 or Greater
Calmar Ratio of 1.25 or Greater
Total Profit of $250,000

When a backtest meets these requirements, the “Fund My Strategy” button will become active. At that time you can request the funding strategy to begin. You are under no obligation to request funding. Your trading strategy is your property. We do not have rights to your algo until we license it from you. We have no license until the actual license agreement is physically signed by both you and a CloudQuant representative.

We hope you are successful in your algo development.

We hope you do request funding.

We hope that we make money together.
