About Cortex

Cortex reads where traders are crowded and where buying or selling pressure is fading, and takes the other side in hedged long/short books.

A small trend leg on BTC and ETH and an event-driven leg add exposure when the market moves sharply, so the portfolio depends little on whether the market rises or falls.
