You deserve Better than Average
Our Strategy:
Our Trading Strategies are based on models that are derived on yield,
volatility and in particular currency fluctuations. A lot of what we use
has been incorporated from the known info from the Q-Group and Robert L. Hagin
in his book Investment Management - Portfolio diversification, Risk and Timing -
Fact and Fiction. It is based on those who make the markets, banks and
other large financial institutions. It is not based on institutional
or mutual fund holdings as ledger positions do not make markets, trading makes
the market.
We believe in getting into the markets inter-day as most market moves are
concentrated in just a few days and further the bulk of those moves come the
first up or down day. Currency fluctuations are used for bonds/commodities
as they have a direct relationship on each other (i.e.. gold is valued in US
dollars and any impact on the USD directly impacts the purchasing power of
foreigners).
More important than any entry is the exit or signal to short the market.
This is the area that poor performers like to look into their bag of tricks for
curve fitting, stop losses, profit targets, percent targets and data mining in
order to show some great unrepeatable performance. Investors ask us why we
do not use some of these common stops? The simple answer is the more
degrees of freedom your system has the less robust it is in actual use.
For example when you hit a stop loss the price you get will be much lower than
the price you had anticipated as many other investors will have a similar stop.
By being in the markets at all times we are exposing our strategies to all
market conditions and we have a less likelihood of missing the big moves.
Our systems are not being used to trade individual securities because of the
noise level and the type of investors in some of these securities. Market
indexes best suited for our purposes are broad based and not price weighted or
concentrated in a few stocks. Our belief is that with any given benchmark
half the securities will over perform and the other half will under perform.
Finally, as this is a free site and we are only presenting general
information
we will only be updating the site on a weekly basis. In this scenario we
are not giving away too much of our trading advantages and our visitors are
getting a feel of the potential of our strategies and trading ideas.
