Aequitas Capital Partners is an algorithmic trading firm leveraging proprietary software and data-driven insights to generate sustainable capital growth.
Our team is comprised of skilled professionals with expertise in trading, risk management, and data analysis, supported by advanced algorithms that optimise performance and control risk effectively.
Aequitas Capital Partners employs a short-only mean reversion strategy targeting NASDAQ and NYSE-listed stocks. We focus on equities experiencing significant pre-market price gaps—often driven by promotional news releases preceding the issuance of dilutive instruments. By analysing SEC filings and historical price patterns, we identify overvalued stocks likely to revert to fundamental levels, allowing us to capture rapid price corrections with controlled risk exposure.
Our approach is refined by monitoring institutional ownership to avoid crowded trades and enhance liquidity alignment. Proprietary algorithms integrated with NASDAQ APIs enable real-time analysis and adaptive trade execution, maintaining strict risk/reward thresholds.
We ensure capital efficiency by trading only a portion of AUM on margin, while allocating unused capital to short-term, fixed-rate instruments such as Treasury bonds. This dual strategy generates passive yield and supports portfolio resilience.
A robust risk management framework underpins all operations, including automated stop-losses, statistical confidence models, and real-time monitoring. This disciplined structure enables consistent, risk-adjusted returns while mitigating drawdowns across varying market conditions.
Aequitas Capital Partners is a private hedge fund available by invitation only. If you're interested in joining the fund or learning more about our approach, please get in touch — a member of our team will be in contact.
