This Is Why Matterhorn Is the Right Strategy for You
The strategy is a quant based investment vehicle that uses algorithms to take advantage of the price actions of different securities. The price action of any given security is looked as function of the equity market volatility. This parameter is then used to define: entry and exit prices, and the amount of capital to allocate per trade. The downside risk and strategy volatility is mitigated by applying the same investment methodology to different asset classes. The combined strategy will then have a reduced drawdown and volatility than applying this investment methodology individually to each security. A near-risk parity approach is used to allocate capital to each of the security that the strategy plans to invest in. The strategy invests in financial instruments representing: US equities, US bonds, commodities and volatility products. The strategy never engages any risk undefined trade. Instruments may include: ETFs, ETNs and options.

Vittorio Manente - The Manager Behind Matterhorn
Vittorio Manente has worked as program manager and strategy analyst for the last 16 years within the automotive and Oil&Gas sectors. Vittorio became passionate about finance in summer 2011 when he saw opportunities to profit after a market meltdown. Not satisfied by the performances of financial products available for retail investors, he decided to create his own. In 2017 Vittorio launched NEXT-alpha, a quantitative macro strategy to deliver consistent returns independently on the market direction. He then founded Alpha Growth Capital in 2019.
