Two Proven Systems

Why Run Both Together?

The same principle behind every institutional portfolio: uncorrelated return streams compound faster with less pain.

0.12

Low Correlation

TrendLock and SwingHunter target different market dynamics. When one system is flat, the other is often generating returns.

Smoother

Reduced Drawdowns

Portfolio diversification across uncorrelated strategies reduces peak-to-trough drawdowns. Less pain means you stay in the game longer.

Better

Risk-Adjusted Returns

A higher Sharpe ratio means more return per unit of risk. Two uncorrelated alpha streams beat one every time.

Frequently Asked Questions

What markets do the systems trade?
Both systems trade equity markets, primarily SPY (S&P 500 ETF) and QQQ (Nasdaq-100 ETF). These are liquid, widely-accessible markets ideal for systematic trading with clear signals.
How many signals per month should I expect?
Signal frequency varies by market regime. The systems don't force trades just to generate activity. During high-momentum periods, you'll see more signals. During consolidation, fewer. Quality over quantity — every signal meets the predefined criteria.
How much time do I need to commit?
Signals are delivered by email at 9:00 AM ET, Monday through Friday. You need about 5 minutes to review and execute each signal. If you prefer hands-off execution, automate via Collective2.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Monthly plans cancel anytime with no penalty. Annual plans include a 30-day money-back guarantee — try it risk-free for a month.
What's in a signal email?
Each signal includes: instrument (e.g., SPY), direction (LONG/SHORT), entry price/type, stop loss, profit target, current regime, and the reasoning behind the trade. Everything you need to execute with confidence.
What's the difference between TrendLock and Swing Hunter?
TrendLock is a multi-engine system combining momentum, calendar patterns, and crisis opportunities. Swing Hunter focuses specifically on multi-day momentum swings with shorter holding periods. The Systems Portfolio combines both — uncorrelated, complementary strategies working together for superior risk-adjusted returns.
