OUR TRADING SYSTEMS

Gen 2 - Mini S&P Only

Market: S&P 500 e-mini futures contract (ES)

Methodology: A tested methodology, consistently and rigorously applied. Gen 2- Mini S&P Only is based on the price action during the open and pre-open time period.  The system trades 1 time per day typically, rarely 2 times per day, and holds trades overnight until the next morning (pre-market open).

With this system, the profit per day is not capped.  Rather, we let the market run.  Although this sometimes means that we give back a significant portion of the open profit, over time it is been verified through testing to be the best approach. Open positions are monitored continuously throughout the trading day.

Live Performance:  Single contract profit of $15,516 from 11/1/2008 to 2/5/2010 (15 months), before commissions and subscription fees, as verified by independent auditor

E-Mini Open Cycle (EOC)

Market: S&P 500 e-mini futures contract (ES)

Methodology: An automated trading system, E-Mini Open Cycle trades one time per day, and is based on the price ranges immediately before and after the 9:30 AM ET stock market open.  The system waits for the optimum time to enter, typically between 9:30 and 11 AM.

To maximize the overall return, no profit targets are employed in this system.  Instead, if a certain profit threshold is reached during the trading day, the system will actually double the position.  Wide stops are in place, but not revealed, in order to prevent any stop running.  Open positions are monitored continuously throughout the trading day.

Live Performance:  Single contract profit of $6,163 from 11/1/2008 to 2/5/2010 (15 months), before commissions and subscription fees, as verified by independent auditor

Mini N&R

Market: Nasdaq and Russell e-mini futures contract (NQ, TF)

Methodology: Mini N&R is a unique system, in that it is really 2 systems in one.  Although both were designed to be profitable by themselves, when traded together they reduce overall drawdown.  The system trades 2 NQ contracts for every 1 TF contract.  Sometimes the signals are opposite (meaning one component is long, and the other short), sometimes the signals are together (long or short), and occasionally only one system will have a position in it.

The Russell portion of the system is typically in the market, and trades in a countertrend fashion.  It employs moving profit limits and stop losses (both of which are entered as market orders).  It a technical indicator based entry system.

The Nasdaq component of Mini N&R looks at the price relationships immediately after the opening, and then makes a decision whether to be long, short or flat that day.  It frequently holds trades for 3-5 days or more, and emplys moving targets for both profits and losses.  It spends a considerable amount of time on the sideline, not trading at all.

Live Performance:  Based on 1 mini-Russell and 2 mini-Nasdaq contracts, profit of $17,660 from 6/4/2009 to 2/5/2010 (8 months), before commissions and subscription fees, as verified by independent auditor

Gen 3 - Mini S&P Only

Market: S&P 500 e-mini futures contract (ES)

Methodology: Gen 3- Mini S&P Only is based on the price action during the open and pre-open time period.  The system trades 3 times per week typically, and to reduce risk it exits each trade before the end of the trading day.  To further reduce risk, it does not hold trades over the weekend.

To maximize the overall return, no profit targets are employed in this system.  Instead, if a certain profit threshold is reached during the trading day, the system will actually double the position.  Wide stops are in place, but not revealed, in order to prevent any stop running.  Open positions are monitored continuously throughout the trading day.

Live Performance:  Single contract profit of $1,997 from 10/1/2009 to 2/5/2010 (4 months), before commissions and subscription fees, as verified by independent auditor
