About the Firm

AP Futures, LLC is dedicated to bringing individual investors select strategies that are grounded in academic theory and proven in the financial markets. Andrew Haleen is the founder of the firm and the portfolio manager of the Volatility Trading Program, the firm's flagship investment strategy. Throughout his career, he witnessed how the largest institutions and wealthiest individuals generally received the best advice and were offered investment opportunities that were simply unavailable to others. While rare doesn't always equate with good or even suitable for some investors, we believe that in a market environment with stretched equity valuations and the ever present potential for destabilizing macro events, that individual investors deserve access to alternative investment strategies that offer the potential for further diversification and increased returns.  

 

AP Futures, LLC is registered with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC") as a Commodity Trading Advisor ("CTA"). As a CTA, client assets are managed in Separately Managed Accounts ("SMA") that provide the client with complete transparency as to how their money is managed and also offer daily liquidity. AP Futures focuses its trading in liquid financial futures and is therefore able to create a return stream that is more typical of Long/Short Equity Hedge Funds and Volatility-based strategies, yet still preserves the often favorable tax treatment of 1256 Contracts (learn more about 1256 Contracts on the Research and Education page).

Futures trading and futures based trading strategies are not suitable for everyone and involve risk. Please read all of the important risk disclosures and speak to your financial advisor before making an investment in any futures investment program.

The risk of loss in trading commodities & futures contracts can be substantial. You should therefore carefully consider whether such trading is suitable for you in light of your financial condition. The high degree of leverage that is often obtainable in commodity trading can work against you as well as for you. The use of leverage can lead to large losses as well as gains. In some cases, managed commodity accounts are subject to substantial charges for management and advisory fees. It may be necessary for those accounts that are subject to these charges to make substantial trading profits to avoid depletion or exhaustion of their assets. The disclosure document contains a complete description of the principal risk factors and each fee to be charged to your account by the Commodity Trading Advisor ("CTA"). The regulations of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC") require that prospective clients of a CTA receive a disclosure document at or prior to the time an advisory agreement is delivered and that certain risk factors be highlighted. This document is readily accessible from AP Futures, LLC. This brief statement cannot disclose all of the risks and other significant aspects of the commodity markets. Therefore, you should thoroughly review the disclosure document and study it carefully to determine whether such trading is appropriate for you in light of your financial condition. The CFTC has not passed upon the merits of participating in this trading program nor on the adequacy or accuracy of the disclosure document. Other disclosure statements are required to be provided to you before a commodity account may be opened for you.
