What Drove Returns

Top contributors: EURUSD (long/short), XAUUSD (long/short), AUDCAD (long/short).
Losses on individual detractors were immaterial, reflecting the system’s built-in hedging and position-sizing discipline.

Market Narrative & Positioning

Two-way opportunity capture: Stratus profited from EURUSD and XAUUSD both long and short, benefiting from early-month rallies (USD softness on labor jitters) and the subsequent reversals as the dollar strengthened following the Fed’s hawkish cut and resilient U.S. data.
Gold nuance: Despite gold’s extraordinary September - breaking multiple records and crossing $3,800 - Stratus still generated gains on XAUUSD shorts by tactically harvesting the metal’s brief pullbacks. This underscores the system’s nimble regime switching and intramonth rebalancing.
