Quadriga Superfund - Managed Futures

Quote from Ebo:

No Pain No Gain!
Are you a partner?

I agree with that.

No, but considering it. Just received all of the information in the mail Friday.

Thanks for all of your LOL's.

I am not attacking Quadriga, just making a statement. So, you do not have to come to their defense. I am sure they are well run, but no matter how you cut it 20% in one month is PAINFUL.

I still don't know what you mean by that. It's certainly a bad month but when you say painful, I think to myself risk tolerance. If your risk tolerance can't handle a 20% drawdown in a fund that makes 40% to 50% a year, well, good luck. I'm not commending them on a fine month for sure. But if this fund was only making 15% a year, I would be pissed with a 20% drawdown. But 40% to 50%? No way, that's not painful dude. Just a bad month, that's all.
 
It seems to me that this is just another opportunity. We shall see. (I know 40-50% is the historical, so what is to see)

Yeah if you got in May 1st. They are already up very nicely so far this month.

The best time to get in is after a large drawdown.
Even if you average into the fund.
There is really no need to be confrontational with Maverick.
He happens to know The Quadriga Funds inside and out.
I am sure The partners also appreciate you posting their performance on here! If you read your E mail it says:

"The information transmitted is intended for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material. If you are not the addressee indicated in this message (or responsible for delivery of the message to such person), you may not copy, disseminate, distribute, disclose or deliver this message to anyone."

Guys - take a deep breath! First, I did not post the performance here - someone else did.

Second - if you think I am being confrontational by saying that a drawdown of 20% in one month is painful, you really need to get out more.

Are you guys investors, or do you work for Quadriga?

Kernan I'm an investor. You need to understand something about this thread and any others on ET. There are a few regulars here that post, myself included. From time to time we get trolls that come in here out of no where and make really ignorant comments. When that happens, expect the mainstays on the thread to go after you. And that's not just this thread but any thread on ET. If you want to have an intelligent discussion, make sure your first post on a thread is not asking for confidential information on a fund, then following that with a idiotic remark. Complaining about a drawdown in a hedge fund is like a long term investor complaining his GE stock is down .25 today. OK? If you have questions about the fund, ask them. But don't be ignorant. Good Day.
 
Quote from kernan:

Thanks. That is painful.

What proportion of your portfolio do you have in the Quadriga Fund, Kernan? Do you think that is too much?
 
Their performance is available to the public over the internet. There is nothing confidential about their performance and I have never recieved any direct or indirect communication from Quadriga.

I would hope that the partners and those making the investment decisions on behalf of Quadriga would "appreciate" the posting of the performance, both good and bad...provided the information is factual, which it was.

This lengthy discussion of their fund in this forum has benefitted them by providing more exposure to potential customers. More such balanced discussions would be healthy around here.
