This is a tremendous resource for subscribers and students, it shows exactly how our system performs in real time with real market conditions. We welcome you to go over these trades and learn more about what we do.

Here are the rules we use:

  • All trades are posted, winners, losers and trades that did not trigger.
  • Any trade that does not make at least 2% profit is considered a loser and is highlighted in red.
  • We calculate 100% of losses as if using a 2% trailing stop.
  • You get to choose account size, trading size and percentage of possible profits
  • Scaling in, scaling out, stops and re-entries are standard practice with our service.
  • Dividends or any other known or unknown variables which may or may not have impacted the trades.

The performance results noted above are hypothetical. Unlike an actual performance record, hypothetical results do not represent actual trading. Simulated trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. Since trades have not actually been executed, results may vary due to market factors such as lack of liquidity, slippage and commissions. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown above.
