Thanks to our ballistic, market beating performance, up 57.91% last year, we have recently enjoyed a large influx of new subscribers, especially from Australia and New Zealand. So, I want to take this opportunity to clarify exactly what you bought.
While the Diary of a Mad Hedge Fund Trader focuses on investment over a one week to six-month time frame, Mad Day Trader will exploit money-making opportunities over a brief ten minute to one month window.
It is ideally suited for day traders, but can also be used by long-term investors to improve market timing for entry and exit points.
The Diary of a Mad Hedge Fund Trader is written by myself, John Thomas, who you may have met during my many Global Strategy Luncheons around the world.
I use a combination of deep, long term fundamental research, technical analysis, and a global network of long time contacts to generate great investment ideas for you, the reader.
The target holding period can be anywhere from three days to six months, although if something fortuitously doubles in a day, I don't need to be told twice to take a profit (yes, this happens sometimes).
Last year, I issued over 200 Trade Alerts, of which 84% were profitable.
The Mad Day Trader is a separate, but complimentary service run by my Philadelphia based friend, Bill Davis. He uses a dozen proprietary short-term technical and momentum indicators he developed himself to generate buy and sell signals.
These will be sent to you by email for immediate execution. During normal trading conditions, you should receive up to ten alerts a month. The target holding period can be anywhere from a few minutes to a month.
Bill uses far tighter stop loss limits, given the short-term nature of his strategy. The goal is to keep losses miniscule, so you can always live to fight another day.
Bill uses primarily a "Buy-Write" strategy whereby he buys stock and sell short call options against them. Bill also provides outstanding daily US stock market commentary.
You will receive the same instructions for order execution, like ticker symbols, entry and exit points, targets, stop losses, and regular real time updates, as you do from the Mad Hedge Fund Trader.
He supplies key support and resistance levels for several indexes, which the markets will revolve around. Traders love it.
At the end of each day, a separate short-term model portfolio will be posted on the website for both strategies.
Bill is a 30-year market veteran who has spent a career in financial education.
I have followed his work for yonks, and can't imagine a better partner in the serious business of explaining how to make money to you, the reader.
Together, The Mad Hedge Fund Trader and the May Day Trader comprise Mad Hedge Fund Trader Pro, which is for sale on my website for $4,500 a year.
I hope this makes everything crystal clear for the new subscribers. If you have anymore questions, please email my assistant, at support@madhedgefundtrader.com
