Managed Forex Update By Charles Campbell, on Friday, July 30th 2010 @ 10:38:39
Very happy overall with the trading this month,given that it hasn't been a great month overall for FX CTA"s
New Programs :
Looking at a group at ACM, track record from 2007. In the process of our due diligence with them
Added Fibo Fx to our database, very short term high frequency model. This program is being offered at Marex Financial and possibly Rab0
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FCI - our clients are up this month. Doing well very happy with them so far
IAB - yet another positive month, looking to begin trading at London Capital Group and Marex as well this month
MS1 - starting to pick back up, up at pfg,flat at lcg. Did our best at marex this month
FC Stone he had 2 accounts, one up 7% and the other down 2. Fc Stone has now allowed us to combine
platforms so we expect to see better results as the markets become more active
Nex Gen - got caught last night with GBP news in the Asia session creating unexpected volatility. Overall not
concerned as the drawdown was minimal and the consistency is stable
NSK - Has done well for us, thus far. Very professional in their outlook for risk. We expect their assets to pick up at PFG
as we transition clients from other trading venues
Precise CP - Very excited about their performance. Activity will begin to pick back up mid august as the trader"s wife
is having a baby. Also have a futures version to be released near the end of the year
QTFX - The past 2 months have been bad for them. After such a great start the past 8 months.They have had there
Equity stop levels hit in each month,(Ouch). They are retuning their risk profile and hopefully August , we will
see them return back to form.
QVFX - Had their first losing month since inception( less than 2%). Lowered their max daily loss to 3%. 2010-07-22 12:24:51

This Constant Battle By Joseph Warren, on Monday, May 10th 2010 @ 09:25:59
Every time I sit down to write a commentary it seems that some new debacle has emerged that threatens the markets. Each has its own unique versions of potential peril and the newest one often seems more dire than the last. Yet the prior dilemma, however intricate and scary it must have been at that moment, has been overcome, or at least postponed. Nevertheless, money managers face new issues almost daily as the struggle between progress and restraint continues. What's important, and what sets Warren Capital apart from its competitors, is how we handle issues in this constant battle.
In my 2010 outlook piece, I predicted that risk would become a factor again as several countries would be unable to roll their debt as they have become overwhelmed from absorbing the losses of their respective banks. As we've noted in the past, simply moving bad debts from one balance sheet to another doesn't mean the debts disappear. We knew a day of reckoning was coming and it looks like Greece is first in line.

Filling the Gaps By Joseph Warren, on Thursday, March 4th 2010 @ 10:26:48
In the last few weeks investors have been reminded about the complications of credit and debt. Markets around the world have once again declined in value to start the year. This has surprised many, which is ironic as it was only 16 months ago when the financial world was brought to its knees by the credit and balance sheet issues. But perhaps we can use this descent as an opportunity to address the fundamental truth; something must be done to fill the gaps. Let's first recognize the complete problem. At the end of 2007 there were collectively $100 trillion worth of debts worldwide on the books. Those debts were secured by $50 trillion of assets at a ratio of 50%. The trouble is that the asset base has shrunk because of declining stock markets, housing prices and real estate corrections. If asset bases are reduced and the debt burden is not, you've got a real problem.

The forex trading buzz By Stephen Hart, on Monday, January 25th 2010 @ 08:38:29
Foreign Exchange (forex or fx) is the over the counter (OTC) financial market which allows for the trading of currencies. The forex market comprises of financial centers around the world trading between a large number of buyers and sellers globally, 24 hours a day, except for weekends. But why are we as investors now being inundated with information about the forex markets and currency trading? Why is it now so important to get involved and begin evaluating a speculative investment in this market?

3 Reasons a Separately Managed Forex Account is the solution of choice in 2010 and beyond! By Stephen Hart, on Sunday, January 17th 2010 @ 08:44:15
Separately Managed Forex Accounts are up-and-coming as the investment vehicle of choice for more and more investors in the forex market. The concept of a ‘separately managed account’ was invented back in the 1970s to accommodate institutions and clients whose goals, needs and objectives did not fit within the order of mutual funds or hedge funds. Separately Managed Accounts have since moved beyond the traditional market application and are now the first choice of a wide range of investors who are attracted to their control, flexibility, and transparency, in other alternative markets including the forex market.
