State of the Smart Money

Howdy Friend!

It's been just over 14 years since I coded the Smart Money Indicator strategy.

It literally took weeks and sleepless nights, because I had to make a custom program for gathering COT data, then a script written in PERL to append the data, then custom coding inside a back testing platform.

I'm glad the Ai we invented programs itself these days. I don't think I have the stamina to stay up until 3AM anymore.

Anyhoo...you're probably wondering what the strategy is saying as the S&P 500 hits new highs.

The S&P 500 is still on a BUY signal.

Long-term bonds are on a SELL signal.

Notice that, with a trading strategy, there are no weasel words like "as long as the Fed does xyz."

Or, "if bonds don't plummet, then...blah blah blah."

That kind of trading will make you as confused as a woodpecker in a petrified forest. The beauty of a trading strategy is that it gives you clear signals... Buy or sell!

A trading strategy is like having a recipe for baking chocolate chip cookies. But, instead of yummy cookies, you're following a recipe for pulling money outta the markets and into your account.

That's the best kind of recipe if you ask me.

These days, I'm no longer the chef experimenting with different recipes...I just leave that to The Boss Ai which is connected to a multi-million-dollar network of computers.

It can experiment way more than I could in 100 lifetimes.

Getting back to the SMI... the SMI bonds strategy is up a whopping 28% this year.

There's always a bull market somewhere as they say, which is why I love trading multiple strategies.

Speaking of multiple strategies, check out these three strategies that have completely shrugged off the 'rona:

EARNINGS DISCLAIMER: I like to provide full transparency and not blow smoke up your behind, so listen up.100% Club members in general are seeing between 91%-100% winning months in back tests just using the Instant Start templates I created for them. These results are out-of-sample (unseen in the optimization phase), so I put a lot of weight into that fact.

I don’t yet have a statistic for the average member as far as gains are concerned. There are a lot of variables because this is not a cookie-cutter program. I do have dozens of brokerage statements on file, and the majority are looking positive.

There were a couple outliers that weren’t good because they went off track. I believe I convinced them of where they went wrong and they are back on track (too much leverage, and some over-fitting to the past). That’s my job :)

There are other factors in play as well such as: Are you actually making the trades? Account size. Is your broker any good or are they fleecing you? Are you using all the leverage available to you, or are you dialing it back like I recommend?

Simply put, I believe the reason we’re seeing the highest preliminary success rate of any program EVER is because:

a) you’re selecting from 100+ supercomputer-built strategies, and the odds of them all failing at once are extremely low.

b) the strategies take advantage of highly unusual edges that very few if any know about.

c) Our Meta ML technology is completely unique in the trading world. Very few understand that all strategies have cycles, and that there are opportune times to trade them. This allows you to treat trading more like a business rather than a hobby.

d) The daily instructions are brain-dead simple to follow, and can be accomplished in just a few minutes.
