Finalyze Capital is a fully systematic and automated quantitative CTA based in Sunnyvale, CA. We aspire to consistently beat the market without exposure to the market, and with no correlation to other CTA’s, so that our returns are purely Alpha. Our edge lies in our advanced statistical analysis and superior research methodology.

​

We start with the assumption of perfectly efficient markets, and only conclude the existence of an inefficiency when the data strongly rejects this efficiency assumption. We’ve built an Alpha factory, an assembly-line style process for systematically testing trading strategy ideas. Inefficiencies do exist, and we have created the tools to find them. We have a very strong relationship and potential talent pipeline through the Maroon Capital and Derivatives Group Quant Trading student clubs at the University of Chicago.

​

Our primary trading strategy is our short-term mean reversion strategy. Our research shows that there tends to be at least a small reversion following a large price swing. We’ll enter opposite the direction of the move and aim for a small reversion, with an average holding period of about one day. We trade the strategy across the 20 most liquid futures markets. This strategy was an original idea, not coming from any academic paper, so we believe the Alpha is safe from decay.

​

We’re also trading 6 other uncorrelated quantitative trading strategies. Each strategy is an amalgamation of several sub-strategies – we're trading over 8,000 total sub-strategies across 30 futures markets. Finalyze’s long-term vision is to grow into a multi-strategy quant fund, trading dozens of strategies for maximal diversification, and putting us in the best position to profit in any market environment.
