Our Approach
Stipelis manages actively traded futures portfolios across equity index, interest rate, currency, and commodity markets.
Our approach integrates technical analysis, fundamental context, and market experience within a disciplined risk management framework designed to promote consistency and control.
Futures trading involves substantial risk, including the use of leverage and exposure to market volatility. Investors should be prepared for fluctuations in performance and consider a long-term investment horizon.
Custody and Alignment
Stipelis does not act as a custodian and does not hold client funds.
All client assets are maintained at the investor’s selected Futures Commission Merchant, where they remain in the client’s name and under their control. Clients retain full ownership of their accounts at all times. Stipelis is granted limited trading authority solely to execute the strategy and does not have the ability to deposit, withdraw, or transfer funds.
This structure is designed to provide clear separation between asset custody and trading management.
Stipelis does not receive compensation from brokerage activity. Our role is focused exclusively on managing the trading strategy within a disciplined risk management framework.
