Trading Style |
|
This program is a mix of
medium to long-term strategies focusing
purely on market trends by identifying
extreme levels and shifts in market
sentiment. The main system is based on
DailyFX's Speculative Sentiment Index (SSI).
Similar to the Commitment of Traders (COT)
report published by the CFTC, the SSI gauges
traders' positioning and open interest in
currency pairs. The system enters trades
when the SSI indicates an above normal
change in the general market sentiment,
whether it indicates that traders have
flipped direction from long to short or if
there was a significant increase in the same
direction.
While the risk of loss still exists, the
system is expected to perform well during
trending market condition. Similarly, the
system will draw down during periods where
the market is range bound.
|
Performance
results are based on the system employed by
the account.
Past performance is not indicative of future
results, as returns may vary according to
market conditions. Trading in foreign
exchange is speculative and may involve the
loss of principal; therefore, assets placed
under management should be risk capital
funds that if lost will not significantly
affect one's personal financial well being.
This is not a solicitation to invest, and
you should carefully consider the
suitability of your financial situation for
investment prior to making any investment or
entering into any transaction.
Hypothetical performance results may have
many inherent limitations, some of which are
described in the risk warning. No
representation is being made that any
account will or is likely to achieve profits
or losses similar to those shown. In fact,
there are frequently sharp differences
between hypothetical performance results and
the actual results subsequently achieved by
any particular trading program.
One of the limitations of hypothetical
performance results is that they are
generally prepared with the benefit of
hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading
does not involve financial risk. financial
risk. Variables such as the ability to
adhere to a particular trading program in
spite of trading losses as well as
maintaining adequate liquidity are material
points which can adversely affect actual
real trading results. |
