DAY TRADE emini

This is a flawed system, the stops are huge, it takes 10 good trades to make up for one bad trade, and many times it picks the opposite of the obvious market direction

Emerging S

If I had rated this system prior to 11/30/14, I might have given it four stars. But the performance since then has been poor. With a "long only" stock system, I would like a system that can outperform the indices so that each time the indices hit new highs, the system's equity does the same. That was the case prior to 11/30/14, but since then, the system has performed poorly. The system does not use stops, so when a stock held by the system gets clobbered, as has been happening on occasion, the system gets clobbered and the subscriber can only sit there wondering "when is this guy going to pull the plug on this terrible trade". That is a major weakness of this system--not using stops and holding losers way too long. A subscriber would have done a lot better just holding a 2X long S&P index fund over the life of this fund.

Zakum

I have researched and used several systems on C2, Striker and Altavest. Zakum is definitely one of the best systems available as demonstrated by its returns since inception. As part of my diligence, I always submit questions to the system designer. Guy promptly provided useful responses to my questions which gave me confidence to use his system. Many system designers don 19t properly respond to prospective subscribers so Guy deserves extra credit here. I like the fact Zakum focuses on one instrument as I believe it is easier to create a profitable trading strategy for a single instrument versus creating a profitable trading strategy for multiple instruments.

Carma Stocks

Been trading this for the last 4 months with a very steady and consistent return . Developer is also very responsive to emails .Keep up the good work

ALPHA STAR small

A classic case of you get what you pay for. Unlike many other futures trading systems, this developer knows how to ride the winners and milk them for all they are worth. This creates the exceptional returns.

Zakum

I am currently very satisfied with Zakum's trades. A truly professional trader who knows the market well. I got in Dec when there were only one or two other autotraders and autotraded immediately. Perhaps it was the quality of the trades that attracted my attention. Since then i never looked back. His is one of the few systems that i learned not to meddle with the trades and just let it run.

Mean Reversal ES Daily System

Great system, smart developer. If you can handle 5k - 10k DDs and like steady profits, this system is for you. Be ready for a patient algo with parked entries (easy for manual trade). I cannot recommend this system enough.

Zakum

Very professional trader with excellent risk management and outstanding returns so far. I am very happy with the performance especially given the recent extreme market conditions that this system had to deal with. The last review of 1 star is WAY off-base and unfair--backtests are not always available and even if they are they're not very useful besides seeing very basic characteristics which the developer is happy to describe. What really matters is FORWARD execution in real-world conditions on unseen data and this system has done very well to date. The only thing lacking is the time on C2 but that will resolve itself.

Two Cents

This system has very bad entry and exit. Mostly entered when the big moves were made and usually late to the party. It tries to catch a bigger move. In the real world, price mostly retrace so a huge loss of $1k plus is rather normal. As for exit, the system allowed a trade that was up 2k to dwindle all the way to almost zero before making exit. Stops are useless as they are set very far from the entry. You will be hit badly if there happen to be a significant market move.

LogiMax

This is what happens to vendors of futures system who increase (often prematurely) their position sizing hoping for sky high returns. They usually suffer large draw downs and lose all their subscribers even if the system is profitable in the long run. I prefer systems with constant position sizing - let the subscriber decide how much he wants to trade. I wish more vendors would emphasize low dd rather than sky high returns.

ETF VOLATILITY TIMER

Why hold on to losses forever?? You need to improve your strategy to cut losses and still be profitable. Two months with no gain at all...

SP100 Short Term Swing

Great system. Robust. Developer is a great communicator. Very happy. Been a subscriber since the beginning.

DailyMiner

I've been trading this system since the last week of November 2014 when I gave up on trying to trade profitably on my own. Results speaks for itself as the system has helped me recover some of my losses I incurred trading on my own. My only regret is not trading this system sooner.

Zakum

Developer wouldnt provide backtest results to justify system performance. Something smells fishy with the developer. Esp for 300/month. Cautious.

e24 SP500 Emini

System has performed at least as well as the backtest. Had to stomach a good size drawdown in January when I started but it has made a new recovery high so I have more confidence that it is performing as it was designed to do. Volatility is realistic, and I think a good sign the system hasn't been overfit like many other systems with perfectly smooth uptrends until they blow up. I am happy so far with the performance.

Carma Stocks

looks good so far...I am going to go live today and see how it really works!

Goldmetre B

I have traded this system for 3 months now and overall I must say it is fair but not exceptional for a couple of reasons: 1 - The system developer is very communicative but also makes adjustments to his system. This scares me because systems should already have been tested and proven, not changed on the fly. 2 - The system is quite volatile. The drawdowns aren't huge but they are constant. Immediately after making it out of one DD ($7,000 ), the developer states new highs only to immediately enter another DD. I understand DD is the nature of the game, but this is too choppy for my liking. 3 - The posted hypothetical curve does not apply at all and is only for 2 years. What happens during bear markets? The curve makes me think that the system is overfitted with minimal data sample size. I have made some profits from this system ($3000) and I am confident annual profits will come but it does not fit my needs due to the red flags above.

DailyMiner

Robust model. Solid returns. No complaints. Fantastic communication from the developer. Highly recommended. Four stars at present, in time if results are consistent over time, 5 stars.

US Stock Trader

For me, this system has it all. Over 3 years of solid returns, reasonable DD and I can manually trade. I can sleep at night even when a trade is not going well because I have confidence that it will turn around and not the beginning of the end as sooo many other systems.

THE ROLLING STONES SP500

This is one of the best trading strategies for S&P 500 futures available. Adapts very well to changing market conditions. Always maintains the same level of trading risk so there are no surprises.

LogiMax

Logimax is a great system. The communication with the system vendor is very good. And the performances are outstanding. I'm very satisfied.

DAY TRADE emini

Good returns so far. But, my concern is that historically a single position has had a drawdown of over $2800 and still no stop was hit so I wonder if there is any stop at all in this strategy? I do worry that a future downdraft in the index could be very painful. Perhaps the developer can shed light on this scenario so we can sleep easier? Thanks.

DAY TRADE emini

knows what he is doing, in and out same day, no worries on margin calls on smaller accounts, and plenty of green on tally. Trades are very accurate and draw down isn't painful.
