Myriada enables groups of experts to forecast any price, rate or indicator with extraordinary accuracy. The patent-pending technology suite is applicable to any long-short investment strategy where positions are generally held for more than an hour. Myriada achieves this versatility by harnessing an existing resource - the predictive ability of the analysts/traders within a hedge fund, trading house or prop desk. This approach improves the team’s existing, individual-centric forecasting techniques by incorporating collective intelligence. On the Myriada platform, a fund’s employees and members of their network are transformed into prediction engines - and these human predictions can also be combined with the output of computational models. By rapidly collating all estimations via weighted aggregation, Myriada generates rich, visually intelligible collective forecasts. For each, the group signal is statistically guaranteed to be more accurate than the average individual prediction, and is usually better than any individual. The power of correctly harnessed collective intelligence was empirically demonstrated with a 90-day macro multi-security trading strategy which yielded a Sharpe score of 3.66. Myriada is launching with the Financial Times on December 1st 2014.
