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.
