Portfolio model provides a means to reduce overall portfolio volatility at the beginning of the stock market rally that saw many investors away from forex trading.

"A lot of investors to stay in the forex market - either because they lost money and had refused, or because they simply do not know where to put their money," said David Karsbol, chief economist at Saxo Bank.

"At Saxo Bank FX Model Portfolio is a way to activate this money idle through the application of such relatively low cost and low-risk fashion."

Model portfolio based Saxo Bank indicators that measure the basic economic force (contraction or expansion) of 10 Currencies: New Zealand dollar and Australian dollar, Canadian dollar and Japanese yen, euro, pound sterling and U.S. dollar and Swiss franc, SEK kr. In theory, should give 45 and other currencies, but the model to remove the 12 most liquid and expensive to trade and the search for 33.

Distribution of signals generated by the proliferation in the key indicators and the idea is always to allocate more funds to currencies with relatively strong economic activity (positive outlook and interest rates) and finance positions by going short on the currency with a weak economic activity weak perspectives of course).

Model allocates capital after the spread between the changes in key indicators. For example, if the indices in the euro area suddenly to form the main index of the United States (all else being equal) to reduce exposure of the euro against the U.S. dollar.

In addition, positions are scaled up or down according to fluctuations in other currencies to a question, so that the expected risk-adjusted against the positions in the euro against the Swiss franc is the same for positions in the EURCAD.

"The model is always a good and diverse is always in the market," said David Karsbol. "Therefore, not exposed to the issues of weather conditions."

Model does not depend on the use, and the volatility of total returns tends to be low (especially for a bar). Feature especially interesting one is that they tend to be almost completely uncorrelated due to be returned to the securities markets (correlation = 0.1) and other risky assets (the relationship with the CRB index is 0.11).

Test again in 1991, the model produced annual returns of 5.34% using a crane and one, 10.58 percent, and the use of powerful dual-15.67% triangular bars.

"Therefore, If the test indicates that revenues in the future, it would make much sense to use part of the portfolio to provide a form of foreign currencies, and thus reduce total portfolio volatility, lower yields without much or at all depending on the use of a crane."
