One prevalent trading approach among algorithmic traders in the commodities sector involves employing market-neutral strategies, wherein each trade is designed to hedge away specific risks. Given that this approach necessitates two distinct transactions, if one position underperforms unexpectedly, the other can potentially offset some of the losses. This method can be applied to commodities such as Cotton, pairing it with other commodities or financial instruments to create a balanced, market-neutral setup.
