About this strategy

S&P Profit finder is a daytrading system designed to capture larger range movements in the S&P500 by identifying key daily market levels as reversal points. The system will usually only provide one trading opportunity per day. Subscribers are provided with entry levels, stops and profit targets for the day. Occasionally we will recommend holding a position for 1-3 days based on our market analysis. However this is usually the exception rather than the rule.

Past results are not necessarily indicative of future results.

These results are based on simulated or hypothetical performance results that have certain inherent limitations. Unlike the results shown in an actual performance record, these results do not represent actual trading. Also, because these trades have not actually been executed, these results may have under-or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated or hypothetical trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to these being shown.
