The Systematic Power Setups are designed for self directed traders looking for short
term trading opportunities based upon a tested strategy. This strategy is a common
‘breakout’ method that attempts to identify new trends as they start.
Do I need software?
No.
If I miss an entry should I try again even though the price is higher?
No. If you miss a trade we recommend you simply wait for a new trade setup.
In the table below the vertical column designates the win rate of the system being
traded. The horizontal row is the theoretical maxDD that a user is comfortable with.
The output values are the maximum risk per trade that should be used to remain
below the maxDD level.

The Systematic Power Setups are expected to fluctuate around the 40% to 45% win
rate; therefore you should choose a risk per trade level that is aligned with your
maxDD tolerance.

Why don’t you post your performance record?
At times it will be impossible to take all trades and therefore it’s not possible to offer
an accurate track record.
Despite this, we have included robust Monte Carlo simulation testing back to 1997 to
give you some insight of what the system is and is not capable of doing. Past
performance can never be an absolute accurate guide to the future, but this is as close
as we can come.
