Quantitative Researcher, MRM Research

Nico Rosti

Quantitative Researcher, Algorithmic Trader and former Portfolio Manager at Capital Theory Investment Management, LLC, a CTA based in Austin, Texas (USA), where I developed and ran automated algorithmic trading strategies for the US Futures and Options markets. 

My work is focused on the statistical study of the "persistence of trends" and "mean reversion" effects in global Equities, Futures, Indexes, Bonds and FX Spot markets. I make extensive use of probabilistic Bayesian models to predict short-term (1 day to few weeks) trend reversals.

I do not use any AI/machine learning processes in my work: all models and algorithms are built by humans. This approach is very labour-intensive but produces forecasts that have a clearly understandable/explainable rationale (no black-boxes).

Good probability of reversal (&gt;60%) for the <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/nikkei-225" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:22909:1" rel="noopener">Nikkei 225 (NKY INDEX)</a>if closing this week up and/or if market price reaches =&gt; 34033 intra-week (better: =&gt; 34255).</li>
<li>
Index can go a bit higher but first will probably consolidate/digest the latest rally from April. Expect non-directionality. If WEEKLY rally lasts =&gt;3 weeks, place high-probability SHORT trade.
</li>
<li>A pullback below 33189.04 (last WEEKLY Close) seems unlikely this week. In case, buy-the-dips until the price reaches 32586 (Q2 barrier). Past that point the market could sink &lt;= 31750.</li>
