USA Financial Exchange is a subsidiary of USA Financial, a 5-time Inc. 5000 honoree.

Founded in 2003, Scarecrow Trading has built a reputation for disciplined, algorithm-driven strategies that have enjoyed long-term success through a variety of market cycles. Crow Chaser is a disciplined equity long/short/cash program that combines 17 proprietary indicators—including momentum, seasonal timing, sentiment, and trend—to seek absolute returns with exposures tied to leveraged NASDAQ-linked vehicles. High 5 builds on that framework by incorporating 36 market indicators and dynamic exposure management across the same core disciplines, aiming to adjust responsively to shifting market conditions. Both strategies are designed for diversified portfolios and emphasize a structured, algorithm-driven decision process.
We’re always looking for ways to help advisors differentiate portfolios and deliver meaningful results to clients. Scarecrow Trading’s strategies offer a compelling blend of quantitative rigor and real-world performance, making them a valuable addition to our platform."
Mike Walters, CEO of USA Financial
Both strategies are designed for use in qualified and non-qualified accounts, with flexible allocation options typically ranging from 5% to 15% of client portfolios. Advisors can access the strategies directly through the USA Financial Exchange platform, with full support for onboarding and implementation.
