signal manager: SAN

description

Codename SAN refers to Sanostro. Although not a traditional CFA, since 2011 Sanostro’s algorithms are used to recombine signals from third-party signal managers, to create custom signals for clients. SAN’s recombined signals have multiple advantages to traditional signals: they combine the collective intelligence of multiple CFAs; allow for mixing models such as mean-reversion and trend-following into a single hybrid signal; allow for the weighting third-party signals for improved risk-management or upside capture; add extra security in case a third-party signal manager fails.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE SIGNALS

Our signals ("the Signals") are based on mathematical or statistical models, which academics and practitioners use in the context of financial markets. For instance, they give an indication for a certain trend, a relative valuation or a price pattern. Our Signals are typically sourced from leading practitioners like professional quantitative research firms. Before accepting a Signal to the platform, we analyse the quality and characteristics of the historic signal time series and assess the quality of the person, team or firm supplying the Signals. Despite our best efforts, we can give no guarantee as to the future quality of the Signals and the providers of the Signals (Signal Managers). Signals, which might have been value adding in the past, might not be value adding in the future, due to a changing market structure, changing market inefficiencies, changes in the model methodology and many other reasons.

A Signal must therefore NEVER be used as the sole input or trigger for a trading decision. It can only be regarded as one of many input factors in making your own investment decision.

You should therefore treat a Signal similar to Price / Earnings information of a stock: It can be a helpful information to evaluate the attractiveness of a stock or another financial instrument, but it is only one piece of information. You will need additional information before you can make a sound investment decision.

SYGNAL therefore excludes all liability related to the Signals or any other services provided by us or any related party. Any use of the Signals, in whatever context or way, will be at your sole responsibility and YOUR COMPLETE OWN RISK.

You must fully understand and accept these terms before using our services.
