FAQ
There has been an overwhelming amount of traffic to the
site. That is a good thing, and in this there have been
questions asked. The following is the list of questions asked
by potential members. This page will constantly grow as people
ask questions. Hope you find this useful.
1.
Does the subscription fee cover signals for all
investment types? ie Profunds, Rydex, Fidelity and ETFs
Yes it does.
Members will be given this information. Then they can decide
on what to do
2.
Is your
performance history based on back testing or actual trades?
System went live on
2005, from that time it is live. Prior to that this system was
out of sample tested.
Back testing by nature
curve fits the results, giving one nice returns and low Mdd.
This system was
was not back tested
3.
Is the frequency of mutual fund
trading such that short-term redemption or transaction fees for
trades inside 180 days will be assessed?
Profunds, Rydex, and
the ETF's have no ERF ( early redemption fees) Fidelity from
what we can see
has a 90 day window, with
a 0.75% early ERF that would have to be paid when selling it prior
to the time
frame. PLEASE check
the prospectus of any investment prior to making the trade.
4.
Are buy sell signals
provided just for overall market trends or for each of the 3 funds
in each category?
Each of the 4 models
have their own buy and sells. That is why one investment model
can be holding
3 funds and the next only
2 or 1 for that matter.
5.
I noticed that the Profunds annual performance is significantly
better- is that due to the use of leverage funds?
Yes, it is also why
the Mdd is higher too. When Profunds drop in price, they
usually drop faster than
the other funds
6. Is this system based on oversold and
overbought market conditions?
No. Markets can
run overbought or oversold for a long time without making
corrections. A system
then would buy or sell at
the wrong time
7. I have signed up
for numerous sites over the years, only to find out that they have
me buying and holding 12- 15 funds in each portfolio. This
gets difficult if not impossible for me to handle. How many
will I be buying when I sign up for this?
3 funds at any given
time will be the maximum. Yes each portfolio never holds more
than 3 positions
at any given time.
Making it easy for you to manage
8.
I am ready to sign up but need a few more little details and
specifics at the trade level. Do you send trade
recommendations all for near closing transaction of for the next
morning at open or what?
ALL trade are for the close of next day.
So if the sell is triggered lets say today, at market's
close you get an e-mail
tonight or latest next morning saying what the model is either
buying
or selling at market close the next day. ALL members will get
the same price on their mutual
funds
when they buy at the close. The ETF's may vary a little
depending on how close to
the close
price they are executed at.
9. Who picks the Mutual Funds and ETF's
that are in your portfolio's? Is there another place that uses
the
service that supplies you with this information?
This is why we are
unique and there are no others companies out there that will give
you this
information.
We do not use a service to make out portfolios. It is our own
patented system that
triggers the buys and
sells. This makes it impossible for another company to
be issuing the
exact same investment
models
10. I like the approach of going long and short but not with
Ultra funds. Are there alternatives to UCPIX & UAPIX?
YES of course there are. We presently
track only UAPIX and UCPIX. Profunds also SLPIX &
SHIPIX hat
are the funds that would be for the non-ultra holdings. We
have members that
are even using the
ETF's TWM & UWM for the long short model of their own
11. In one part
of your explanation for how to use your system you say you don't
believe in shorts, but yet it appears that you have a model that is
called long/short. Is that correct and how is that going to work?
Thank you
Different models for different
people and the risk they can handle.
We started out with the four
models
and no shorts. When we added Shorts to those models we found
that it added very
little
annret but increased Mdd. So not we do not believe in
shorts added to the original
models.
The
long-short model is a whole different idea. It has shorter trade
cycles and is set up
specifically for that. So we do not believe in adding shorts to the
original models and that is
why we
have this newer one now
