Against the backdrop of accelerating changes in the global capital markets, investment education is undergoing a new wave of transformation. Founded by renowned investment expert Jim Durning, who has more than 30 years of hands-on Wall Street experience, Everwyn Capital LTD and Everwyn Quant Academy are officially launching a systematic quantitative trading education and practical training program for global investors. The initiative aims to help investors participate in markets in a more scientific and sustainable way.

Background: Challenges and Opportunities in the Market

In recent years, global financial markets have experienced heightened volatility under the combined impact of macroeconomic fluctuations, geopolitical uncertainties, and technological innovation. From the high-frequency swings in U.S. equities to the rapid rotations of crypto assets and commodities, traditional investment approaches that rely on experience and emotion have been increasingly challenged.

At the same time, quantitative investing has become standard practice among the world’s leading institutions. Data-driven, model-based decision-making and risk-first systems enable Wall Street and large hedge funds to remain resilient in complex environments. For everyday investors, the urgent challenge lies in how to access and master such systematic approaches.

Academy Foundation and Founder Background

To address this pressing need, Everwyn Quant Academy and Everwyn Capital LTD were established. The academy’s founder, Jim Durning, has built a career spanning more than three decades, serving at top Wall Street investment banks and hedge funds. Known for his calm and pragmatic style, he has been called the “silent force of the markets.”

He is the originator of the widely cited “Four-Step Control” investment methodology, which emphasizes:

• Data as the foundation
• Discipline as the core
• Risk management as the prerequisite
• Long-term value as the ultimate goal

Jim Durning not only integrates his practical experience into the academy’s curriculum but also introduces the team’s proprietary Ark Quant System 3.0 into student training — enabling true application of theory to practice.

Ark Quant System: The Academy’s Core Advantage

Ark Quant System 3.0 is the academy’s flagship system. First conceptualized in 2020, it underwent three years of testing and iteration before its official launch in 2023, demonstrating consistent and resilient performance in live trading.

Key features include:

• Equity-focused: Tailored to the volatility patterns of U.S. equities
• Multi-strategy integration: Covers trend following, swing trading, arbitrage, and event-driven approaches
• Risk-first controls: Dynamic position sizing, strict drawdown limits, and multiple stop-loss/take-profit mechanisms
• Cross-market adaptability: Expanded coverage of forex, cryptocurrencies, and precious metals for diversification

This is not just a model but a bridge for students to move from theory to real-world application.

Core Programs and Teaching Framework

Everwyn Quant Academy provides a complete pathway from beginner to advanced learning through its curriculum and services:

• S. Equity Quantitative Trading Courses: From financial fundamentals to quantitative models, with real-world case studies
• Research and Market Reports: Daily/weekly professional insights to help students understand macro and micro market dynamics
• Global Investor Community: A platform for cross-border student interaction, fostering knowledge exchange and collaboration
• Comprehensive Financial Education: Beyond equities, covering digital assets, forex, and commodities to build a global investment perspective

The academy adheres to the teaching philosophy of “integration of knowledge and practice, step by step”. Students are guided by mentors and research teams throughout, with case-based learning and continuous updates to ensure alignment with the latest market practices.

Mission and Values

The mission of Everwyn Quant Academy is clear and resolute:

• Bring rationality back to investment education— replacing emotion and speculation with data and systems
• Make learning serve practice— connecting courses directly with trading systems
• Foster steady wealth growth— emphasizing risk control and long-term compounding over short-term speculation
• End investor isolation— creating a global community of investors

The academy’s core values are distilled into five keywords: scientific, resilient, open, practical, and growth-oriented.

Vision: Building a Global Center for Investment Education and Research

Everwyn Quant Academy is not just an educational institution — it aspires to become the world’s most influential hub for quantitative education and research. Through the integrated ecosystem of academy education + Ark Quant System + global investor community, the academy aims to help investors achieve sustainable growth in complex markets while advancing investment education toward greater systemization, professionalism, and internationalization.

As Jim Durning emphasizes:
“The investors of the future should not fight alone. They must rely on systems, teams, and communities to navigate bull and bear markets together, ultimately reaching the shores of long-term value.”
