Benefits of trading for Nickel's Diversified Alpha fund:
Transparent and protective performance-linked agreements rewarding the highest risk-adjusted returns
You earn progressively higher performance share for delivering higher Sortino ratio returns
No copy trading as there is no centre book
Independence to be fully remote
Economies of Scale enable low-capacity, high-return strategies to have low fixed costs and so be financially viable
Ownership of IP and track record retained by you with value directly accruing to you

Ideally strategies wouldn't be correlated to other pod managers in the
portfolio. Uncorrelated managers receive larger capital allocations
