Chart based progressive global trading strategies

Chart Partners

Chart Partners objective is to discover medium-term cycle turns and profit opportunities before they unfold, within structural trends while preserving capital with clear degrees of risk. We have real return ideas. 

Markets are dynamic and trading systems must reflect this. It is crucial to determine underlying correlations and lead-lag relationships within global markets and the impact on linked instruments. Our weekly Chartonics product gives you short-term trading strategies that can be applied within the medium and longer term macro trends that are mapped out in our strategy updates. 

Our methodology fuses global market variables and isolates drivers in trends. We specialize in FX, index trade in NY and Asia with a focus on Asian stocks.

2018 promises to be another fascinating, but almost certainly more challenging year for global investors. We have identified a number of non-consensus calls - 18 of them for '18 - to help navigate the minefield.Our first five are: global growth momentum has already peaked and will slow through the year;the US's growth-inflation mix will deteriorate and the Philipps curve should flicker back to life;The Federal Reserve will hike more than expected, lifting the Fed Funds rate at least three times;the UST curve will keep flattening but 'bond market conundrum 2.0' will continue to cap longer yields; risks to oil are heavily to the downside. A slump back below $50 per barrel could be THE story of 2018.Another 5 to follow soon.
