Important Warning about Hypothetical Results


On this page, and others within this Web site, you are going to read about trading systems and their performance. It's important that you understand that all results reported on these pages must be treated as hypothetical results.

Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. 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, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk in actual trading. For example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program, which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all of which can adversely affect actual trading results.


Warning about commission costs


Collective2 does not, by default, include commissions and execution costs when displaying hypothetical results. These costs will certainly make your actual trading results worse than the results you see here. For high-frequency trading systems, your results will be vastly worse than the results you see here.

Do you understand that this warning applies to every page of this site?


We show this warning, and block your view of a trading system's hypothetical results screen, at least once each "session" that you come to this Web site. (Specifically, we show this warning the first time you view a system page and then every 60 minutes thereafter.)

Also, this same warning is displayed at the bottom of almost every page in this Web site. So you can always scroll to the bottom of the page to see the warning again. Therefore, we will not block your view of data during each page load, or we would make this site unusable. Before you can continue, you must acknowledge that: 1) you have read this warning, and 2) you accept that - while this pop-up warning will not block your view during every page load - the warning here nevertheless applies to every page on this Web site.

Subscription Terms

$295 per month, only if profitable (Details)

This is a pay-for-performance system. Subscriptions cost $295 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 


Highly profitable long/short medium-term system. The risks are very small, the system is very tradable. In order to ensure proper execution of order, only a limited number of subscriptions is allowed.

GOLD SURVIVOR FEATURES
---------------------------------
Survivor is a very good system, both intraday and overnight, which can work on a highly diversified futures and stocks portfolio. The Survivor core elements are the volatility breakout, the file pattern that validates it and the little number of parameters (3) which regulate its working.

In fact Survivor can operate with profit on many markets and on many time frames. It can also operate both intraday and overnight. It works on fixed non-optimizied parameters on all the markets, these parameters are never changed and this is an essential condition to guarantee constant and robust results.
