I’ve been with C2 for over 15 years, and I have yet to find a strategy that aligns better with my trading philosophy than Market Posture. The performance has been outstanding, achieved with remarkably low drawdowns.
I believe this level of success is largely due to the strategy manager, Joao, who actively and diligently manages the strategy, responding swiftly to market dynamics. While the strategy is still relatively young and recent market conditions have been favorable, I have strong confidence in Joao’s ability to continue delivering solid results even in challenging market environments.
I've only been in this one for 10 weeks, but it's already up 11% in that time. I like that there is such a long track record. It seems that improvements have been made to this system over time.
Hydra is awesome! The trading strategy is sooo well risk managed. While some trades hit it out of the park, the consistent small profits compound faster than you can believe. Highly recommend!
It's been a game changer so far with Hydra Options. Not only are we seeing exponential gains at times, but there is also real accountability when it comes to risk and capital management. I think that is something we all appreciate. They also have great communication and support on their Discord group which is really helpful as a daily tool. This has been a great ride so far, looking forward to continued growth!
I have been subscribed to this strategy since Jan 2024. This strategy did well in the first half of 2024 . But it has pretty much gone down hill for the last year. I have sent at least couple of detailed messages to the strategy manager outlining concerns and all I get is "my system is awesome". Well, if his system was awesome his equity curve would be much better. The data shows for itself. The manager's daily emails have vanished at this point. His weekly commentary makes little to no sense. The manager at this point is just milking the last few set of subscribers who aren't paying attention and fleecing them. So terrible. Wonder how professionals can be at peace knowing they are cheating subscribers. Hindsight I should have cut the cord on this subscription sooner. The only reason I stuck around so long is because I auto-traded a very small percentage of this strategy and booked regular profits and hedged along the way on my personally traded portfolio (through covered calls and what not). BlackBoulder has lost his ooomph. Please do not subscribe!
BE WARNED!!!! I have lost a lot of money with this. And, the strategy manager has ignored all of my message requests for help understanding what is their plan with my huge drawdowns. They don't deserve your business for that rudeness alone.
As for the strategy, as best as I can tell, they just keep adding to losing positions until it turns (which still mine has not). You can't do that indefinitely with trending markets like major indices without sometimes getting seriously burned. There should be a warning on this site about managers who just juice their win rates by continually just adding to losing positions at the expense of your capital. Don't be fooled. It might work for a bit but huge drawdowns commonly await.
STAY AWAY!!!! I lost so much money with this. Worse, the strategy manager ignored the majority of my communications in which I tried to obtain some information during huge, growing drawdowns. When they finally replied, they basically just told me to exit myself! So not only did I lose money but they seriously don't deserve your business either.

I can only rate TechSignal for the month I subscribed and that month was not good. System stays short while market continues to climb with no end in sight. Nasdaq will probably sell-off at some point making this system profitable again but until that happens one must accept significant drawdowns and hold on.
RUN AWAY FROM THIS STRATEGY.
Currently down over $27K, all this strat does is short the market, and when the market runs against it, it just keeps adding to its losing position, indefinitely. It currently has positions open since JANUARY (a deep red SQQQ long) that it just holds forever in the red so as not to post crap trades. Recently however, two MASSIVE closed losing trades from holding consecutive maximum size losing short positions while the market goes STRAIGHT UP 45% in the last 90 days. And when the strat FINALLY DID stop out with an massive loss after ignoring the market direction for months, guess what, it jumps RIGHT BACK IN a short position hours later. WHY EVEN BOTHER STOPPING OUT?
RUN AWAY.
Inconsistent trading. Chasing highs and chasing lows under the claim "momentum". Leaves vulnerable positions in shorts, open far too long. Sometimes multiple trades will happen in short periods of time and others stay open for days (typically the losing positions). Drawdowns initially claimed were incorrect. No stop loss. VERY poor communication with subscribers.
Nice backtest. Bad trading. Live trading results do not hold up to the backtest.
Win rate is only about 58% compared to the 88% of the backtest.
Losing trades are almost double the size than winners.
This is still in its infancy and while risk is relatively low, the returns have not been consistent. Still think this strategy needs more time to marinate before making a final rating.
