Strategy

ETH Trending Alpha ST 3.0 is a medium-term systematic trend following strategy which uses statistical analysis and technical indicators to

identify and exploit short-medium up-trends.

The strategy uses EMAs to identify up-trends with a volatility metric for confirmation. The strategy is optimized for short-medium term

time-frames enabling it to exploit some of the more shorter-medium term trends.

The strategy is long-only, rebalancing into ETH when the strategy identifies an up-trend and rebalancing back to cUSDC when not in the

market (e.g. flat or bear markets). All cash USD balances earn interest via Compound. finance enhancing returns. The medium-term nature

of the strategy results in approximately 5–6 trades per year, each held for an average of 20 days.

The medium-term nature of this trend-following strategy allows it to identify some of the key trends that emerge naturally over time with

less choppy rebalancing. It is less likely to get caught in a volatile market due to less frequent rebalancing.

The strategy performs best in trending markets and not as well during choppy or sideways markets.
