About this strategy

Purchase NQ emini futures (or you can attempt with stocks like TQQQ or similar but I would recommend NQ as it trades more hours).

This system does have drawdowns of 30% so do not use too much leverage or you will wipe your account.

The mechanisms behind this system are very complicated, it is not a simple buy the market when it is down system and endlessly add positions. That being said I will reveal nothing about how the system works, and hopefully let the results speak for themselves.

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.
