The best way to describe the Flyer Forex Fund's birth into the currency world is with a horse analogy. At the beginning of the fall 2009 semester, there was much student interest in building the fund, but no knowledge base to leverage. The professor was stuck with simultaneously teaching the fundamental and technical trading of the currency market and building the fund. The horse ran wild in many directions and required a lot of effort to corral and tame. Then we found that the cowboys liked certain tasks (mostly the trading) but lacked the discipline to perform consistently the middle and back office functions.
