About this strategy

Calm and Steady. IRA and TFSA Friendly.

When subscribed, ensure to join open trades as we normally keep them managed rather than re-entering (you must do this). If unsubscribed Collective2 will make it seem like the strategy does not have many closed trades because it only counts a complete trade if entire position is liquidated. In reality there will be 8-12 buy/sell signals a year with partial positions remaining open for more profits.

This strategy does not trade frequently, and does not take short positions. The goal is returns much greater than buy and hold "the market", while still maintaining reasonable drawdowns during period of economic hardship. This strategy is about steady and long lasting wealth creation. I calculated you could start with as little as 4K and still be profitable factoring in autorade fees and commissions.

Using a proprietary method, and mathematical formula's back tested against indexes all the way back to the 80's which included several stock market crashes, this strategy is great for those who wish to accumulate wealth greater than standard buy and hold, but also want to mitigate the risk that comes with that. I offer this for a low price due to the fact that it does not trade frequently. You will find pricing is VERY competitive against other collective2 strategies with lesser yearly returns, more exposure to margin, worse Sharpe ratios etc. It is true in this case that more trading does NOT equal better. This is a full mirror of one of my own tax free retirement accounts with my own real money. Please note Leverage calculation on C2 is WRONG. I am not using any account margin for these positions. It is a cash account.

Benefits:
- IRA/TFSA Friendly (tax free accounts).
- Low entry cost barrier (could be as small as 4K to still be profitable with autorade fees and commission factored in).
- Saves on commissions as strategy does not over trade.
- Not affected by PDT Rule as it only does a few trades a year.
- Supports Cash accounts (no chance of margin call).
- Calculated and backtested long term CAGR of around 40%. This is comparable to famed Renaissance Technologies "Medallion Fund", but without their extremely high 5/44 fee structure (backtesting data is hypothetical and it has not been verified by C2).

Some will find this strategy extremely boring and may feel they are not getting their money's worth due to the infrequent trades. If what you care about is the bottom line (which you should), the end result is a small fee for a much higher CAGR than the SP500. This strategy has been TOS 100% since day one. Don't be fooled by other strategies that weren't even active for the Covid-19 draw down of Feb 2020, or other strategy managers who have tried to hide their draw downs by resetting the strategy record.

"Unless you can watch your stock holding decline by 50% without becoming panic stricken, you should not be in the market." - Warren Buffet

Past results are not necessarily indicative of future results.

These results are based on simulated or hypothetical performance results that have certain inherent limitations. Unlike the results shown in an actual performance record, these results do not represent actual trading. Also, because these trades have not actually been executed, these results may have under-or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated or hypothetical trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to these being shown.
