Systems For Traders - March 2011 Update

Hi,


Welcome to the Systems For Traders March 2011 Update.


Reviews


Four new reviews to report this month. Two Trading system reviews, Boss Trading Method and Louise Woof's Quickie Trader. In addition, a bit of a Fixed Odds Signal service bonanza with Matt Shaw's Fixed Odds Success and the EOD Trading Signals reviews being posted.


Systems/Services We Use Performance


Another great month for Forex Morning Trade, +11% to add to the +15% profit from last month, currently +23% Year To Date for 2011.


1 Minute Daily made up a lot of the ground lost last month with GBPUSD returning +15% and USDJPY returning +21.5%. Remember, we use this system for "growth" not income and these swings are not unusual - USDJPY is yet to return to profit to far this year but overall we are up as GBPUSD continues to outperform at present.


Performance Updates


Performance for "Systems/Services We Use" as well as those systems/services we are continuing to monitor post-review have been updated for the current month.


Links, as always, can be found on the left hand side of this email. At present we intend to continue monitoring all of these.


Post Of The Month (NEW Book Reviews Section)


This is more of a - New section of the month award this time - It of course goes to BookWorm whose new Trading Book Reviews section is, we believe, excellent. Do check out the first 5 reviews, Japanese Candlestick Charting Techniques, Pring On Price Patterns, Market Wizards, Reminiscences Of A Stock Operator and Trading In The Zone.

BookWorm, we are not only thankful for the reviews but also for the agreement that any purchases made through our Global Investors BookShop will be donated directly to our current Donate A PIP charity.


Donate A PIP


Our Donate A PIP campaign is still open. Do you trade at £1 a PIP, £5 or even £10 a PIP? Has Systems For Traders ever saved you the cost of a PIP? We welcome any contribution to our chosen chartity for this season - Cancer Research UK - You can Donate A PIP here - At present we are 75% of the way to our £1,000 target and we are grateful to those of you that have already contributed.


As always, we thank you for your continued support and welcome your comments in the forum because that's the way it becomes more useful to all of us.

Systems For Traders - February 2011 Update

Hi,


Welcome to the Systems For Traders February 2011 Update.


The update is a little late as we were waiting for a couple of February results to come in and we had to change our Email client this week. The latter meant we didn't hit our self imposed four new reviews a month target. We hope to make up for this in March.


Reviews


Three new reviews to report this month. Two Trading system reviews have been completed, AutoFocus FX and DMC Forex as well as the Mark Austin FTSE Signal service review.

Links, as always, can be found on the left hand side of this email.


Systems/Services We Use Performance


After a negative return in January (-3%) Forex Morning Trade made a 15% profit this month.

1 Minute Daily made a -22% loss on GBPUSD and a -7% loss on USDJPY in January. This month the drawdown continues, a -2% loss on GBPUSD and a -9% loss on USDJPY. Historically we know these drawdowns can occur and that's why we use this system for "growth" not income. This is one of the lows so hopefully we can report a correction from here next month.


Performance Updates


Performance for "Systems/Services We Use" as well as those systems/services we are continuing to monitor post-review have been updated for the current month.

Links, as always, can be found on the left hand side of this email. At present we intend to continue monitoring all of these with the exception of Fix The Markets.


Post Of The Month


Goes again to more_coffee, we thank you for taking so much time to put pen to paper in relation to Trading System Development. Others will find it of interest for sure and may contribute to the subject - The link is here.

(Suppose that's another drink on us when we get round to organising the SFT get together - Surely someone else can beat him this month)


Donate A PIP


Our Donate A PIP campaign is still open. Do you trade at £1 a PIP, £5 or even £10 a PIP? Has Systems For Traders ever saved you the cost of a PIP? We welcome any contribution to our chosen chartity for this season - Cancer Research UK - You can Donate A PIP here - At present we are 38% of the way to our £1,000 target and we are grateful to those of you that have already contributed.


As always, we thank you for your continued support and welcome your comments in the forum because that's the way it becomes more useful to all of us.

Systems For Traders - November 2010 Update

November 2010

All,

Welcome to the Systems For Traders November 2010 update.

Reviews:

Four new reviews were posted this month, one we already dropped a note out on a couple of weeks ago, Jamie Marsdens Forex Morning Strategy. This is a Forex "scalping method" operated around 07:30 UK time. We have also just published our review of the Daily Index Trader system, a Set & Forget (index based) pairs trading strategy.

Signal service wise we have two, Winning DOW Signals and Forex Daily Trading, both of which have aspects of interest and we will be monitoring these two for another month.

As always, links can be found on the left hand side of this email and we welcome your input.

Although we do not not trade in December we will continue with reviews where those systems/services do not discourage December trading. With this in mind we still hope to complete another 3 or 4 reviews this year.

Performance: A positive month (and year) - just:

- London Forex Open -7.5%
- DOW Letter +8.5%

That's a +1% return for the month. It means our 2010 performance table is now complete as we don't trade in December. After being well in profit in the first half of the year we ended up with a rather dismal net +10% profit for our "Systems/Services We Use". Our journals, see left hand side and our Consolidated Monthly Performance page have been updated to reflect these results.

As it's the end of the year we will be reviewing our "Systems/Services We Use" list and of course issuing any update should we change anything.

Reviews Updated: The FX Friday, Forex Morning Trade and 1 Minute Daily reviews have also been updated to reflect recent trading. Note: 1 Minute Daily has made another impressive profit this month to finally restore us to positive territory again on our "growth fund".

Trading Rooms: We now have 7 active trading rooms and welcome participation from all who own these systems, the link is here.

Thanks again for your continued support.

Regards,

SystemsForTraders October Update

All,

Three new reviews to inform you of this month, all of them (in our humble opinion) worthy of a read as they have all provoked extended interest from us.

All journals have also been updated, here.

We did hope to have one other review completed by today but we are just putting the finishing touches to it, Forex Senior. As and when this is completed we will send out an interim update to let you know.

As always, we have reviews in progress and will try again to hit our 4 - 6 reviews per month target in the coming month.

We hope you find the above useful and do p
lease join in on the forums, your input is vital to ensure the collective (that's you) all gain knowledge from each other (again that's you) as well as us.

Best Wishes (and Happy Halloween),

SystemsForTraders September Update

All,

Quite a lot going on and a lot to update you on this month.

In summary, as well as the two reviews completed earlier in the month (Forex Empire & Housewife Trader Presents) two more have now been added, meaning we met our target of 4-6 new reviews each month. One of the new systems reviewed (Sniper Forex) has been added to our "Systems We Use" list as has London Forex Rush. Additionally, BOM Signals has merged with Fixed Odds Investment to form a new company, Fixed Odds Services, so BOM Signals has been removed from our "Services We Use" list and replaced with Fixed Odds Services, a journal has been added and a review will follow in October. Also note details of our Investors Chronicle article and a brief definition of our rating system.

New Reviews:

New Journals:

We did hope to finish the John Piper Trade Maker review in time for this update however we didn't quite make it. We will hopefully drop a quick note out this week to let you know when it has been posted.

If any of you missed it, you can find our Investors Chronicle article (from last week) under the "
In The Press & Ideas And Suggestions" forum.

It's not clear on the web-site and we are not sure how to make it clearer or where (any suggestions welcomed) so here is a brief overview of our rating system:

  • 5 stars = Used By Us
  • 4 stars = Consider It
  • 3 stars = Of Interest
  • 2 stars = Look Around
  • 1 star = Not For Us

As always, we have reviews in progress and will try and ensure we have 4 - 6 new reviews published again in the coming month. We will also endeavour to update our journals in a more timely manner.

Hope you find the above useful. We are delighted with the intial success and take up of the new site and we thank you for your
support. Please do join in on the forums, your input is vital to ensure the collective (that's you) all gain knowledge from each other (again that's you) as well as us.

Best Wishes,
