What runs behind
the work.
A description of the research, monitoring, and decision infrastructure that supports the Hendriks Wealth Program. Educational; not a description of live trading.
A continuous reading of the market.
The firm continuously monitors several distinct streams of market information — price action, volatility, breadth, the rate environment, cross-asset behaviour, and intraday flow.
These streams are read in parallel and resolved into a single interpretive layer: an estimate of the prevailing market regime. The estimate is updated continuously throughout the trading day.
AI monitors. Human decides.
The firm’s use of AI is deliberate and bounded. AI is employed where AI is genuinely useful: continuous monitoring, pattern recognition across large data streams, tireless attention to small signals at the edges of the day.
Decisions about how, whether, and when to act on what the monitoring system observes are made by the firm’s Principal. That distinction is structural, not ornamental.
A structured day.
- Pre-market
Macro and overnight conditions are reviewed. Today’s framework note is drafted, reviewed, and published before the US session opens.
- During session
The monitoring system runs continuously. The Principal observes, evaluates, and acts within the firm’s defined risk and execution framework.
- Post-close
The session is reviewed. Today’s market note is drafted, reviewed, and published. Tomorrow’s research is teed up.
- Overnight
Research, refinement, and the long unglamorous work that compounds over months and years.
Engineered, not improvised.
The production stack is built for sustained operation: redundant power, professional-grade market data, monitored connectivity, and layered logging that captures every decision the system makes.
A separate research bridge captures market state in real time across multiple correlated instruments and writes it to an auditable record. The research informs the strategies. The strategies inform the research. The cycle is the firm.
One final note on accountability.
The choice to keep a human at the centre of the decision-making process is intentional. It is not a limitation of the technology. It is a statement about how the firm believes responsibility for trading decisions should be held.
Algorithms can be auditable. They can be impressive. They can run for years without sleep. None of that is the same thing as accountable.
The firm is registered with the CFTC. The Principal is registered with the CFTC. When a decision is made, a person with a registration and a name and an obligation to clients made it. That is the model.
