It has been empirically proven that financial markets are not perfectly efficient and display non-random price behaviour with regard to the size of price movements (i.e. volatility). There is an overwhelming amount of academic research and behavioural finance theories that document and explain market dynamics and structures. An investment with Blue Fin means clients may successfully take advantage of these dynamics through our robust, systematic and consistent approaches to risk taking.
Quantitative processes are ideally suited to objectively ranking and participating in trading opportunities and building diversified portfolios while simultaneously controlling risk. Our short-term models capture profits from range expansion over a 1-3 day period, while our medium and long-term models look to profit from trend persistence over a 1 week to 6 month time frame.
Since 2002, Blue Fin's Principals have demonstrated that systematically trading global markets can be profitable. We have the ability to generate returns from both trending and congesting markets. Our shorter-term trading models also allow us to participate in sentiment reversals that have generally been shown to impact negatively on standard trend-following managers who are solely focussed on more medium to long-term time frames.
