CTA TSMOM

Backtest Data and Methodology

As we compute a market anomaly for Time Series Momentum, which is different than the Momentum in finance literature, as documented by Jegadeesh and Titman (1993), we establish strong relationship of securities returns with its past returns. We start with 54 continuous futures contracts covering

  • Equity Index Futures

  • FX Futures

  • Bond Futures

  • Commodity Futures

For our Levered positions, we use the scaling factor of \(\frac{20\%}{\sigma_{t-1}^s}\)

Results

We provide the interactive plots and data below, along with summary statistics.
