Ranking footnotes

 

1 Rankings are not inclusive of all CTA's. Only CTA's choosing to submit their performance are included.

2 Rankings are not inclusive of all CTA's. Only CTA's choosing to submit their performance are included.

3  PFG contest rankings are not inclusive of all CTA's. Only registered CTA's who deposit and traded funds at PFG can enter. Performance results are 3rd party verified as submitted by PFG. Risk adjusted return is calculate from the total return divided by daily standard deviation. PFGs third party auditors calculate the return based on actual account size. The actual contest account size was smaller then the managed account minimum of $100,000 imposed by Kinkopf Capital Management. As a result, the leverage used for the contest account was higher then the Managed Account Program which results in higher percentage moves. Therefore the PFG Challenge results do not reflect the returns of the Kinkopf Capital Account Program. Returns calculated by PFG are gross of managed account fees but net of brokerage fees. Managed accounts are subject to performance and incentive fees. See disclosure document for fee details.
