ARKG and IEMG’s Correlation
When ETFs are correlated, there are 3 main topics to analyze that will help you build your automated trading strategy: liquidity, expense, and risk.
  • Liquidity: In an active trading strategy (trading multiple time per week), it’s important to consider the liquidity of the ETF you’re using. Lower liquidity can mean more money lost in slippage. AUM and average daily volume are both indicators of liquidity.
  • Expense: Some ETFs are more expensive to use than others. For strategies that are focused on longer holding periods, it’s important to factor in how expensive it is to hold this ETF. Expense ratio is the main indicator of how expensive an ETF is.
  • Risk: Some ETFs will be highly correlated, but have varying degrees of returns, due to leverage. It’s important to consider if an ETF is using leverage or not. The main indicators of a riskier ETF will be the use of leverage and higher standard deviation or max drawdown in a backtest.
