Trading Description, Risk Strategy & Background

Trading Description

The Hyperion Fund is an actively traded absolute return fund utilizing S&P 500 options and futures. The fund’s objective, through its four strategies, is to produce repeatable and clearly defined returns regardless of market direction. We weight each strategy to achieve a desired negative correlation to major indices as well as the systems being traded. Through analyzing this data and experience in various market cycles, we have developed an understanding of where each strategy will struggle and where it will outperform. The need then is to have a strategy that will outperform to a higher ratio than the other will struggle and to weight the two to give the fund the highest chance of a consistently profitable trade. Although there is always a risk of loss, we believe completely that we have created a portfolio of strategies that will achieve our objective and add diversification and value to an investor’s portfolio.

Risk Strategy

From the ground up, the entire trading program was specifically designed and built with a defensive risk profile in mind. The ethos of the trading strategy was to provide a high return stream with moderate volatility and manageable drawdowns while keeping margin-to-equity ratios to a minimum. Moreover the program was designed to use continuous electronic data, not stationary price points which provides the most up-to- date price discovery. The program uses this (in some cases 24hrs continuous) data as a major input such that the information is most current. This helps the system constantly adjust to the newest decisions. The program also employs a in-built Extreme Event Risk module which systematically manages such extreme events such that panic and emotional responses are avoided.

HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS HAVE MANY INHERENT LIMITATIONS, SOME OF WHICH ARE DESCRIBED BELOW. NO REPRESENTATION IS BEING MADE THAT ANY ACCOUNT WILL OR IS LIKELY TO ACHIEVE PROFITS OR LOSSES SIMILAR TO THOSE SHOWN. IN FACT, THERE ARE FREQUENTLY SHARP DIFFERENCES BETWEEN HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS AND THE ACTUAL RESULTS SUBSEQUENTLY ACHIEVED BY ANY PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM.

ONE OF THE LIMITATIONS OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS IS THAT THEY ARE GENERALLY PREPARED WITH THE BENEFIT OF HINDSIGHT. IN ADDITION, HYPOTHETICAL TRADING DOES NOT INVOLVE FINANCIAL RISK, AND NO HYPOTHETICAL TRADING RECORD CAN COMPLETELY ACCOUNT FOR THE IMPACT OF FINANCIAL RISK IN ACTUAL TRADING. FOR EXAMPLE, THE ABILITY TO WITHSTAND LOSSES OR TO ADHERE TO A PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM IN SPITE OF TRADING LOSSES ARE MATERIAL POINTS WHICH CAN ALSO ADVERSELY AFFECT ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS. THERE ARE NUMEROUS OTHER FACTORS RELATED TO THE MARKETS IN GENERAL OR TO THE IMPLEMENTATION OF ANY SPECIFIC TRADING PROGRAM WHICH CANNOT BE FULLY ACCOUNTED FOR IN THE PREPARATION OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS AND ALL OF WHICH CAN ADVERSELY AFFECT ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS.

Accounting Notes:

Track record prior to 10/2020 represents the live client traded managed account track record of the four strategies. 10/2020 forward is Hyperion fund live returns. This composite performance record is hypothetical and these trading advisors have not traded together in the manner shown in the composite.

In fact, of the limitations of a hypothetical composite performance record is that decisions relating to the selection of trading advisors and the allocation advisors. Therefore, composite performance records invariably show positive rates of return. Another inherent limitation on these results is that of assets among those trading advisors were made with the benefit of hindsight based upon the historical rates of return of the selected trading the allocation decisions reflected in the performance record were not made under actual market conditions and, therefore, cannot completely of assets changes from time to time and these adjustments are not reflected in the composite. Le Mans Trading LLC has had little or no account for the impact of financial risk in actual trading. Furthermore, the composite performance record may be distorted because the allocation experience allocating assets among particular trading advisors. Because there are no actual allocations to compare to the performance results from the hypothetical allocation, customers should be particularly wary of placing undue reliance on these results.
