Proprietary trading is a form of trading strictly for the benefit of the trader's private or firm capital, not available to outside/customer accounts.

Chicago inspired proprietary trading has a long history of providing participants non-correlated return streams, often thriving during periods of high volatility or extreme movement in the markets.

With the commodity futures markets migrating to electronic screen trading, from their "floor" based heritage, strategies once exclusive to exchange members and proprietary trading groups are now open to qualified investors and institutions through registered commodity trading advisors (CTAs).

This style of investing is known as Managed Futures.

Longevity spends considerable time and resources indentifying top talent/managers in the industry, often securing a portion of the limited capacity available for outside capital and distributing these strategies through the Endurance CTA Platform.
