Wyksight
Wyksight.
Wyksight is the framework through which we allocate risk. It decides how much risk each of our strategies should take, and when, working from a forward assessment of market conditions rather than from past performance. The same framework governs every strategy we run.
In plain terms
How it works, in plain terms.
Each of our strategies continually forms a view of the market. Wyksight weighs those views together, judges how far to trust each one in the conditions that prevail, and sets the level of risk accordingly, before positions are taken. In practice, this means risk is adjusted in anticipation of changing conditions rather than in response to losses that have already occurred.
01
Assess the conditions.
Wyksight continually assesses the market environment, since the same strategy behaves differently in calm, inflationary or stressed conditions.
02
Weigh the conviction.
It weighs each strategy's view according to how reliable that strategy has been in similar conditions, favouring those it has reason to trust.
03
Set the risk in advance.
It sizes and limits risk ahead of events, so that a crowded or fragile position is reduced before it can do harm.
Forward-looking.
Risk follows a forward view of conditions rather than the pattern of past returns.
Aware of conditions.
The framework adjusts how far it trusts each strategy as the environment changes.
Applied consistently.
Every strategy, and every future sleeve, is governed to the same standard.
Note: Wyksight governs how risk is taken. It does not remove risk, and it cannot guarantee a positive return.
