Subscription Terms

$150 per month, only if profitable (Details)

This is a pay-for-performance system. Subscriptions cost $150 at the end of each month, but only if the system has made profitable recommendations for the period.

To determine profitability, we do not look at your brokerage account, nor do we take into consideration whether you actually placed the trades recommended here. We simply measure the system's hypothetical track record here on the Collective2 Web site, without factoring fees or commissions. You will not be charged unless the sum of the trades during the period was profitable. (Also, we want to reassure you that a "month" means a full 30-day period. That is, you are billed only if the last 30 days' worth of trade recommendations were profitable. So it's safe to subscribe at the end of a calendar month; you'll still get 30 days' worth of trades.)



Strategy Description 


All FX pairs.Focus on low risk consistent returns.Trades last from 4 hours to 4 days.Propietary algorithms to generate trading signals.Risk control per trade and per global position.

Good communication with the system vendor. I had absolutly no problem trading this system with InteractiveBrokers, but you definetly need a consistent broker, because you are reliant on a good fill. I have chosen this system, because it keeps drawdowns to a acceptable minimum and has perfect stats, as I am writing this review. One star dump, because the system is just 4 months old and I think it could be difficult to trade it with less than 20000USD, but for those who have large capital, this is a exceptional system.

Hi

This is not a rebuttal,just the opposite.I thank you a lot for your review.

I just wanted to "use" your review to point out that I have had several enquiries from new prospective customers asking if they could trade with xxxx$ initial account Equity.

My reply is that my system is designed for sophisticated investors that understand RISK,usually these investors handle middle to big accounts,so I decided to price my system for a standard 100k usd account.

I will just decide in a few months if I modify my pricing,cap the maximum number of subscribers,or just go on business as usual,for the moment I will continue with the same policy.

Any profitable system at C2 can be selected and adjusted to fit your requirements by just checking the Calmar Ratio...If you like the Calmar,you just adjust your risk level + or - to what is comfortable for you.

Any subscriber to a system can trade it,in theory, with whatever quantity they like,just by using the same risk% they will end up with similar percentual results,both in terms of ROI and DD.

In practice,accounts too small will become untradable because the subscription fee,broker issues and available lot sizes will extremely affect(negatively) their net results.

What is too small is a very personal issue,you will have to do your own math,as the reviewer did,and decide for yourselves.

Normaly it is much too early to do a positive review on a forex system which is just 4 month old - and that is the reason why I give it only 4 stars - but besides the great performance so far there are 2 other reasons: First, the vendor keeps you informed whenever there seem to be deviations from his model and he has a good stratgy in place to keep the drawdown within limits, Secondly, it has to be mentioned that some people who do not know how to properly evaluate trading systems left some really silly comments on My Analyst page about this system.

Hi

Thank you for your review.
This is not a rebuttal,I agree with you on all terms.
I want to use your review to stress on a point you made,Age.

For Readers,just go to the Grid to choose among the thousands of C2 systems.

Choose All systems, no matter if Forex,Stocks,Options,whatever.....

1-Use just 2 conditions...first >=100% ROI ,and,second <=25% Drawdown....How many systems will you find that meet these requirements ? 51 systems a few minutes ago.

2-Use 2 additional conditions...Age >=90 days....and Trades >=90 trades ....How many systems survive the 4 conditions requirement?...10 systems a few minutes ago.

This is the tough reality of this business,out of the thousands of systems/Hundreds of active systems that you can find here...ONLY 10 can keep >100% ROI with <25% DD performance for more than 90 days and 90 trades....at least up to a few minutes ago ;)

System Description

FxTiming :System`s Goal is to consistently maintain good Sharpe and APD ratios trough the use of propietary algorithms to trade swings that will last from 4 hours to 4 days.All Forex pairs are traded.No specific timing for the signals,usually they will be delivered during the first 2 hours of either the European session or/and American session.Most trades will be opened Monday to Wednesday and closed Wednesday to Friday.Usual Risk and MaxRisk per trade are ,respectively,3% and 5% and Usual Risk/Max Risk per global position,in case of multiple simultaneous open positions,are,respectively 7% and 12%.
The system ALWAYS uses Stops based on either a ratio or a multiplier of D1 volatility of the pairs traded.
