Quant Edge is a private hedge fund, based on systematic and quantitative strategies. The fund was founded by CF du Toit and Johann Combrink with combined experience of more than 40 years in business, personal investments, trading and software development.

The fund consists of a diversified portfolio that includes 10 index funds and 8 currencies. The 10 Index funds consist of 1320 stocks in companies across the USA, Europe, Australia and Japan

The currencies include the US Dollar, Australian Dollar, Canadian Dollar, Euro, Swiss Franc, Japanese Yen, New Zealand Dollar and the British Pound.

Our basic strategy is a hybrid between investing and trading. We buy and hold at a low price and sell and hold at a higher price, capitalizing on the difference in value between orders. We use small amounts per symbol, thus spreading risk through diversification. This allows us to apply dollar cost averaging and scaling with the minimum strain on equity

We developed a unique strategy in the systematic realm consisting of a combination of grid, dollar cost averaging, dynamic hedging, scaling and contrarian.

Our strategy is the opposite of discretionary investment or trading decisions but rather systematic by nature. The system is reactive and adapts to market volatility and volume based on mathematical principles. We do not try to predict future prices but rather react to the current price. The unbiased approach further reduces risk.

We apply 22 levels of risk management, pre trade and in trade.

The system and strategy were inspired by mathematics in nature, more specifically the Fractal Pattern and the Safety in Numbers principle.
