Why are investing solutions like Intelledgence and SPA3 so important?
Many experts put forward the view that effective Risk Management and Money Management are the most crucial elements required to make profits in the market over the medium to long term. It is possible to lose significant amounts of your capital even with a market timing system for entering and exiting trades that has a positive expectancy.
On the other hand, it is true to say that effective Risk Management and Money Management used with a market timing system that has a negative expectancy will simply result in you taking longer to lose your capital.
The key is to have a Trading System with a positive expectancy and integrated Risk Management and Money Management for that Trading System. This is precisely what the ShareFinder long term (Intelledgence) and medium term (SPA3) solutions offer.
To be successful over the long haul you must either design or acquire a methodology for the term you are trading. The reality is that developing a working methodology is not an easy task. Most traders do not have a solution and those that think they do, do not have one that works - one of the main reasons why most people fail to succeed in the market.
Developing a methodology requires unique qualities. Assuming that one did have the computer programming experience, trading background, tools and time to research, test and develop a methodology (a task only achievable by a very small number of people), the reality is that the chances of a successful outcome are low.
John Murphy is his book, Technical Analysis of Financial Markets, on the subject of trading concepts explains it well. "Keep in mind that very few ideas will test out profitably, usually less than 5%".
