Opportunistic Trading

Empirical Trading Investment Office is owned by a professional trader with 34 years trading experience and a deep understanding of market behavior that trades for his own account and provides outsourced trading management in opportunistic trading in rising and falling crude oil markets, global stock market indices, currencies, metals, and commodities.

Opportunistic trading involves recognizing market patterns and nuances and taking advantage of short-term market opportunities that are perceived to have a high probability of success. It’s a strategy that allows traders to seize profitable opportunities without being tied down to long-term positions, enabling them to pursue high potential returns in a relatively short period. It goes beyond simply reacting to market events, it requires a proactive mindset and a deep understanding of market dynamics.

The trading operation integrates global macro fundamentals, a deep understanding of market behavior, and an evidence-based approach gathered from price action, pattern recognition, seasonality, and institutional-grade sentiment indicators and data visualization tools, in the implementation of high-conviction asymmetrical trades and long-term directional views. 


We monitor the markets and analyze market data to identify potential opportunities and are ready to act swiftly when the right opportunity presents itself, and at times of high-conviction and the risk/reward asymmetry is distinctly compelling, capital is deployed to scale into trading positions, and trade in-and-out of positions in order to maximize returns. We have a flexible trading approach, with an ability to adapt to a changing environment and respond quickly to opportunities when they arise.

Investor accounts are held with one of the largest and most regulated financial derivatives companies and have full transparency with daily and monthly financial statement reporting. Performance fees depend on account size. 

Investor accounts are capable of generating high double-digit annual returns.
