Welcome to FX-Quant.com

Do you know of any trading strategy that still works after a full decade of live trading?

The keys to a Forex trader's success are typically knowledge, hard work, a disciplined approach and a dedication to master profession. The primary advantage of using FX Quant's services is that you will be able to capitalize on our expertise in mathematics, statistics, numerical analysis and programming and significantly reduce the amount of personal time and effort required for research and trading.

Lyncestis LLP is specialized in quantitative trading within the Forex markets and we offer high quality services to meet the requirements of the world's most demanding investors. If you decide that you don’t have the time to dedicate to Forex research and trading, you might consider our currency trading programs -  FX Quant 11, FX Index Arb, FX Basket Quant and FXC. To hedge funds and other trading firms we offer research, advisory and trading services.

What makes our currency trading programs different? 1.) The world does not need another trend following approach. We developed portfolio trading programs that extract profit from the market noise. 2.) The rates of return are quite stable on risk adjusted basis. 3.) Fx Quant 11, FX Basket Quant, Fx Index Arb and FXC our portfolio trading strategies, show a significant degree of stability and robustness. They are not curve fitted, i.e. they are insensitive to parameter changes. This usually indicates a relative insensibility to changing market conditions. 4.) While the average life of FX trading strategies is around 2 years, our strategies still trade profitably for almost a decade without performance degradation and they do not break up. 5.) The strategies trade in small increments, at regular time intervals. It does not depend on market news and price breakouts. As such, they are insensitive to price slippage and spread costs are extremely low. 6.) The mean leverage is carefully determined in order to avoid disastrous drawdowns. 7.) There is no limit on strategy capacity, i.e. there is no upper limit on the account size. By trading more frequently we can manage accounts of virtually any size. 8.) We found that more than 80% of the performance we found doing a simple Google search for "managed Forex" is NOT TRUE. Our performance record is based on account statements from real trading. We also offer our account statements and performance calculations for inspection. 9.) Those believing that that can easily earn 6% per annum by holding corporate bonds (instead of investing in managed currencies) should first see the 75% drawdown in bond funds in 2008. 10.) We are constantly working and improving our trading strategies - please also see www.vol-quant.com and www.equity-quant.com.
