Crosswinds was founded in December 2017 by Daniel Kesseli – a Veteran Energy Trader with more than 25 years experience.
After his M. Sc. in Geophysics at the Federal Institute of Technology (ETH), Zurich, Daniel has worked for several multinational Energy and Trading companies in senior trading and management functions.
One of the fundamental insights Daniel has gained over this large span of time, is that in trading as in life, crosswinds come unexpected and can blow you off your track.
Embracing this reality is what the company’s trading philosophy is all about. Don’t rely on the tailwinds and manage the headwinds – but make sure you are prepared for the crosswinds.
Crosswinds trades regulated, exchange traded Energy Futures (CME WTI and RB) but also Equity Index Futures such CME ES (S+P 500) and NQ (Nasdaq), using a variety of automated and semi-automated algorithms which Daniel has developed over the course of several years. Crosswinds continuously invests in research and development to adapt to market changes. The firm also offers tailor-made advisory and coaching in quantitative trading.
Crosswinds GmbH trades proprietary funds only and is not open to 3rd party investors.
