The Volatility Trading Program trades VIX futures exclusively, an opportunity set distinct from the equity, rate, and commodity markets that drive most managed futures programs. The program's return driver is relative value along the VIX futures curve. The Advisor evaluates the broad market environment, then places spread and outright positions where the curve's shape and pricing present an opportunity, as determined by the Advisor's proprietary method.
