Investment Strategy

Midas hourly program seeks risk-adjusted absolute returns (pure Alpha) which are uncorrelated to other investment strategies,
by trading in the spot gold market. It is a robust, high capacity investment vehicle, based entirely on systematic trading
algorithms. The underlying strategy is momentum driven, based on a ‘in house’, mathematically built consolidation indicator
which determines direction and market entry and exit levels. It is blended with a proprietary trend following system.

Special note to our investors/Manager Commentary

We think that events, whatever they are or wherever they happen, are totally irrelevant until the moment they start
affecting prices in the market. We will not pass a personal judgment on these events, we will only take note of the
change in market prices, analyze this and take appropriate action.

We analyze the markets in an automated, non emotional way, allowing repetition of the analysis. Automated,
repetitive analysis is done 24/5. Returns for investors must not depend on a human being with all his flaws, but on
a thoroughly tested system.

Although draw downs are part of the investment cycle, we are confident that the models are robust enough to
withstand changes in market circumstances and this rules out “optimization”.

Special note to our investors/Manager Commentary We think that events, whatever they are or wherever they happen, are totally irrelevant until the moment they start affecting prices in the market. We will not pass a personal judgment on these events, we will only take note of the change in market prices, analyze this and take appropriate action. We analyze the markets in an automated, non emotional way, allowing repetition of the analysis. Automated, repetitive analysis is done 24/5. Returns for investors must not depend on a human being with all his flaws, but on a thoroughly tested system. Although draw downs are part of the investment cycle, we are confident that the models are robust enough to withstand changes in market circumstances and this rules out “optimization”.
