2020 Case Study


Meet Investor X

Investor X, as we’ll call him, decided to invest $1,000 with the Templar Fund in 2020. In exchange for his 1,000 USDC deposit made on December 20, 2019, the Templar Fund provided Investor X with 1,000 TEMP on the first day of 2020 Q1 trading, January 1, 2020.

2020 Q1: First Profits Earned

During Q1 of 2020, the Templar Fund earned a non-compounded return of 20.887% (download earnings report). To calculate Mr. X’s dividend, you can use the following math:

1,000 TEMP * 0.20887 * 0.75 (this represents our 25% profit share) = 156.65 TEMP

On March 30, 2020, the Templar Fund sent Investor X his dividend of 156.65 TEMP. In his wallet, Investor X was then holding a total of 1,156.65 TEMP, which would be automatically re-compounded in 2020’s Q2 trade period.

2020 Q2: Compound Profits Begin

During Q2 of 2020, the Templar Fund earned a non-compounded return of 3.716% (download earnings report). To calculate Mr. X’s dividend, you can use the following math:

1,156.65 TEMP * 0.03716 * 0.75 (this represents our 25% profit share) = 32.24 TEMP

On June 30, 2020, the Templar Fund sent Investor X his dividend of 32.24 TEMP. In his wallet, Investor X was then holding a total of 1,188.89 TEMP, which would be automatically re-compounded in 2020’s Q3 trade period. Feeling good after seeing a second quarter of profit, Investor X decided to add $500 to his trade position on June 30, 2020.  On July 1, 2020, the Templar Fund sent Investor X his dividend of 500 TEMP, giving him a 2020 Q3 trade balance of 1,688.89.

2020 Q3: Investor X Adds Funds

During Q3 of 2020, the Templar Fund earned a non-compounded return of 19.323% (download earnings report). To calculate Mr. X’s dividend, you can use the following math:

1,688.89 TEMP * 0.19323 * 0.75 (this represents our 25% profit share) = 244.76 TEMP

On June 30, 2020, the Templar Fund sent Investor X his dividend of 244.76 TEMP. In his wallet, Investor X was then holding a total of 1,933.65 TEMP, which would be automatically re-compounded in 2020’s Q4 trade period.

2020 Q4: Investor X Cashes Out

During the 2020 Q4 trade period, Investor X made plans to take profit and close his trade positions. He smartly made the decision to wait until the dividend payment on December 31, 2020 was completed before redeeming his entire TEMP balance. During Q4 of 2020, the Templar Fund earned a non-compounded return of 30.124% (download earnings report). To calculate Mr. X’s dividend, you can use the following math:

1,933.65 TEMP * 0.30124 * 0.75 (this represents our 25% profit share) = 436.87 TEMP

On December 31, 2020, the Templar Fund sent Investor X his dividend of 436.87 TEMP. In his wallet, Investor X was then holding a total of 2,370.52 TEMP. As planned, on January 1, 2021, Investor X sent his entire balance of 2,370.52 TEMP back to the Templar Fund’s treasury address. He was sent the following:
2,370.52 TEMP*0.98 = 2,323.11 USDC

Final Result: 54.874% Net Profit

During his 2020 experience with the Templar Fund, Investor X invested a total of $1,500. He ended his experience with $2,323.11, or a net profit (fees already deducted) of $823.11!
