abstract

We describe S4, the commodity member of the Q7 AEGIS AI family, which trades four CME micro-sized commodity futures — micro WTI crude oil (MCL), micro gold (MGC), micro copper (MHG), and micro natural gas (MNG) — across four intraday horizons. The design premise is that commodity micros carry regime structure driven by inventory cycles, macro events, and physical-market seasonality that the engine set is specialized to exploit.

In one line — Oil, gold, copper, gas — four physical markets with their own seasonality, traded at micro size.
