Pairs Trade Update: +13.8% On Long SSW/Short IMP Over 3 Weeks
Previously, I suggested closing the idea for a decent ultra short term gain. As you'll note on the daily chart, the pair (Long SSW/Short IMP) kept running to trade just below the 0.26 ratio target price.
Original idea and updates attached.
At Friday's high, the gain was +13.8% over 3 1/2 weeks.
A pair's purpose is meant to be two-fold:
1. Hedge - taking both long (buy) and short (sell) positions to potentially minimize downside risk.
2. Generate alpha with minimal market risk/exposurei.e. taking no market or index-level directional bet.
Currently, I'm looking at possible pair trading opportunities for our client base for the upcoming week and beyond. For more real-time insights and trade ideas or if you're considering am alternative trading service provider, get in touch today.
