Reviewed - Daily Index Trader
Before we start it is worth mentioning, we had first hand experience of this strategy for well over 8 weeks, recorded and reported all our actual trades. Therefore, this review is different to others you will come across. We do not re-iterate marketing bumf from a vendors website nor do we cut and paste affiliation sales copy. Our reviews are conducted by experienced traders that have really operated the strategy, for over 8 weeks in this case.
WHAT IT SAYS ON THE WEBSITE
Another strategy where the expressions "geek" and "nerd" are used in the sales material. This time the vendor exposes a "payout loophole" that entails you "get paid when you win, get paid when you lose". The strategy has a 76% win ratio from when live trading started back in September 2009 and does not necessitate sitting at a computer keeping an eye on open trades. No prior trading experience is needed nor is a large trading account.
WHATS IT ALL ABOUT?
The product comes with a 69 page guidebook but this is not the focal point of the strategy, the core is the "Evaluator". Simply enter the CAC and DAX closing prices from the previous day and the Evaluator gives details of the trades to utilize for today. These opportunities are then entered at 0915 UK Time and are Set & Forget. Therefore, no charts, no screen watching, no hassle - Is it profitable?
SUMMARY
At the outset, the technique is somewhat bit tricky to get the hang of, find the closing prices, enter them into the Evaluator, check the trade details, execute the trade, update the Evaluator, place Stop losses and then finally update and save the spreadsheet with the results ready for the next day. OK, that makes it seem really tricky but in truth, after a few trades it becomes second nature.
Anyway, after trading all through October and November we were in the red around -6% based on a flat 2% risk per trade. Our results are similar to those reported by the vendor so based on our 2 months trading we can confirm the results posted for that period are realistic.
In the past, the performance for this system, according to the website, is impressive and this might simply be a glitch, don't all systems experience this? On this basis, we have chosen to give this system at least one more month and keep an eye on progress in December for signs of improvement. We will of course report back our findings.
We openly invite feedback on all of our Trading System Reviews.
