Algo Company and Strategy I Trust with My Capital
Almost two months into Skysail's NQ strategy with 16% returns since inception. Here's what separates this from most retail algo products.
Eric in sales was excellent — educational rather than hype-driven. He helped me understand the critical difference between a real, well-engineered trading strategy and a manufactured equity curve designed to attract capital. That distinction matters.
Most retail algos have architecture problems. Strategies without proper stop losses, position sizing that creates 20-30% account drawdowns or catastrophic blow-ups, designs optimized for marketing rather than real sustainable capital growth. I've experienced this across multiple providers.
Skysail is built differently. Multi-algorithm bundle on NQ futures with real risk management and genuine quantitative discipline. Brian Devens operates with extreme transparency that's rare in this industry; open about capacity limits, honest about difficult periods, realistic about expectations. Multi-year verifiable track record with meaningful capacity remaining.
Performance varies by regime as honest strategies do, better in trends than chop, but the risk framework limits damage.
As of right now, I trust Skysail more than any other company in the algo space I've evaluated after looking at and testing over 12 companies. Risk-worthy strategy in a market full of products that aren't worth the risk they expose you to.
