Frequently Asked Questions
Using Our Strategies
- Select a payment/subscription plan.
- Choose which strategies you wish to receive alerts for. Everyone receives a daily summary email showing the status of every strategy and trend. When a change in a trend occurs, an email alert is sent out with the recommended action. You will only receive these emails for the strategies you have selected in your preferences, and on days where a trend change has occurred.
- Enter the buys for strategies you are using with your brokerage account.
- Monitor the emails to know when to sell existing positions or when to buy new ones.
Trend Prophets uses a combination of advanced mathematical techniques and machine learning to inform subscribers when to buy and when to sell. When the system identifies a long-term uptrend, we notify subscribers to buy the investment and stay in the market. If the trend turns negative, we notify subscribers to sell their investment and remain in cash. The system today is the culmination of over a decade of data-driven development and live testing and is backed by long-term effectiveness and proven results.
In the Strategies section, we provide all backtest and historical track record data for each strategy since 2010 for anyone to see for themselves.
Trend Prophets has consistently outperformed the market over the long run and the system rewards the most patient investors, rather than investors who focus on day-to-day returns. If you are disciplined and willing to follow the market signals for months or years at a time, Trend Prophets will reward you with long-term gains. We invite you to explore the Strategies section of our website, where you can see for yourself the historical performance of our strategies.
We provide the complete trading history for each of our strategies on the Strategies section of our website. You can select any start and end dates to see how the strategy for each would have performed against the alternative strategy of having bought and held it throughout the entire period. The Strategies section also provides the backtesting methodology.
Over the past four years alone, using our strategy would have yielded a remarkable return of 120% on your invested capital. That’s not just luck; it’s the result of our unwavering commitment to data-driven decision-making.
Our history demonstrates excellent long-term success and an ability to minimize losses during bad times while making as much money as possible in good times. This creates long-term wealth that will outperform other investment systems.
As with all long-term investing strategies, whether you use Trend Prophets or consult with a financial advisor, there will be periods of minimal growth. For each strategy, please consult the trading history and understand that past performance is not a guarantee of future performance.
Normally, to realize higher returns, one must accept a higher level of risk. For investors interested in higher volatility, higher return strategies, we’ve got you covered. If you are willing to accept more frequent changes in your portfolio and can accept the risks involved, then we recommend adding leverage to your strategies (see the Glossary for a definition of leverage).
Investing
Using leverage is a method to amplify returns. With leverage, you will experience greater gains (and losses) than you otherwise would. Several exchange traded funds (ETFs) use leverage to magnify their returns. For example, the ETF UDOW offers three times the daily return of the Dow Jones Industrial Average. So, if the Dow goes up by 1% in a day, UDOW goes up by approximately 3%. Conversely, if the Dow falls by 1% in a day, UDOW would lose 3%.
Trend Prophets offers options to use either leveraged or unleveraged ETFs. The choice is yours. It all depends on your individual risk tolerance, and how much return you want for your chosen level of risk. Leveraged ETFs empower you to make the most money possible using Trend Prophets, but you must be comfortable with the greater risk and daily volatility that comes with them. If you are uncomfortable with high volatility strategies, then we recommend investing without leverage to better insulate yourself against market downturns.
There is no one optimal time. The signals are sent out between 7:00 PM and midnight EST, so it is best to execute the trade the following morning (or Monday morning if the signals are received Friday night). We know that this isn’t always possible.
If you can execute the trade at any time during the day, then we recommend doing so. Just remember that the longer the delay between the time you execute the buy or sell and then day the signal was generated, the more likely it is for your results to differ from what is posted.
Since these are long-term strategies, the timing of the trade will have a minimal impact on overall performance. However, for best results, it is recommended that you trade at the earliest opportunity after receiving the alert to do so.
It is important to remember that you are not opening an account with us. We do not manage your money. We simply provide you with the market signals to make better investment decisions and create long-term wealth. You are still in charge of all your money and you may open an account with whichever online brokerage you choose.
The key to Trend Prophets is staying disciplined and following the signals over the long-term. For the best performance, subscribers must execute each trade within the next business day of receiving an alert.
We recognize that this is not always possible. For some funds, trends can last for extended periods of time, so even if you miss an alert by a couple of days, we still recommend executing the trade to get back in sync with the system.
For subscribers who consistently miss the signals and trade at substantially different frequencies than what we recommend, there can be substantial differences between the published performance and what you experience.
