THE ROLLING STONES SP500

I've had a bad experience w/systems but this system is a diamond in the rough. I hope the developer is not close to retiring because I hope this system will be around for years. The system trades are very logically to me, as I watch the S&P500 every day, and this system seems to be a scale-in mean reversion system. I am using it as the mean-reversion part of my portfolio, because I am too chicken to always ride out the corrections...I prefer trend-following and I will use that strategy for my "normal" non-futures portfolio. I like this system a lot and I recommend it. Thank you, Mr./Ms. Market Signals.

extreme-os

I think is the only one system in C2 with so big picture of his history perform where you can see how it works in bull and bear markets, I think is one of the best stock systems (or the best) in C2 and the only one that can probe it along the years... The only thing because i dont give to this system 5 stars, is that Uyen Le has to improve his "psicology" and when is necessary close a trade that doesnt work properly (use better mental stoploss), but its a question very easy to solve for us, you only must put your own stoploss in your autotrading.

The Traders Way

This system is too risky as it tends to go against trend aiming for a quick pullback that often doesn't arrive and so losing positions are left open increasing the losses. For my experience, I don't recommend it.

FuturesX

Some nice trades since I subscribed. So far I'm happy. Unfortunately, reviewing a provider after a couple weeks is meaningless. I'd prefer to write a review after a couple months or more but apparently C2 doesn't allow this. Sigh...

SPX Edge

System started out OK but I ran into the drawdown during July and August. It might perform well in the long term, but you'd want to have a good buffer of capital to withstand the drawdowns. I think the developer has a good understanding of what makes a successful trading system, and implementing good risk management.

Goldmetre B

So far so good, the system uses good risk management, and has a very realistic 52% win rate. Avg. winners $490 vs. $380 avg loss. These stats are vastly better than most systems on here. Novices are drawn to the ROI% numbers without digging deeper into the trade stats. This system doesn't draw-down 10% to win 1%. I ran some analysis on all the trade results and found a $550 stop loss improves the overall max-drawdown so that's what I've been using and it is working well.

The Spirit of Nicolas Darvas.

I've been trading The Spirit of Nicolas Darvas since last fall and, so far, I'm very happy with the strong and steady performance. I will post updates as necessary.

ZMC L2

Sad, sad, sad. Never trade a Matthew Seldin system!!!

ZMC L2

I spend over $7,000.00 a year with C2 for system subscriptions and for Collective2 Software Licenses. This developer has abandoned his systems and subscribers; leaving them in a devastating draw-down; even though he has worked his way out of similar draw downs in pre-subscriber simulations. Look at this system as the type of system you don't want to subscribe to. Multiple day trades that make it look like the developer knows what he's doing but subscribers never receive the same. These systems don't trade the same way after they have subscribers. The results in reality are different from the results in simulation.

ZMC L2

No money management! Trade on margin and stay till the profit happens, if a bear market stay for some days they will lose all. Insane system.

Emerging S

I have reviewed C2 stock programs and found Emerging S is the best because: 1. High winning % - 86%. 2. Low draw down - 4.2%. 3. It has back tests upon request, with the max down around 13% during the Bear Markets. 4. Low cost. I have asked the back test numbers for the last 2-Bear Market and last 5 pull backs. I know in Jan this year, the market was down more than 5% but Emerging S was up. Please tell if I said anything wrong here or you find a better stock trading program. Yulin

TBS Absolute Return

I’ve subscribed to the system for about half year. So far, I’m profitable. The system trades very infrequently. It’s pretty suitable for people who have a regular day time work. I believe the developer has some edge in picking winning stocks, while it is obvious to confirm that will take longer period. If some short-term trading techniques could be incorporated into the system, it will be more attractive. I’m looking forward to a consistent performance.

In a month of virtual autotrading at 10% I "made" $16 and spent (no quotes) $100. I give it a "fair" because other systems lost me a lot more money... By the way. I've been looking at Collective 2 for 10 years now, lost a few tau. Is anybody making money?

2d

Consistently high number of winning trades results from adding to losing trades and closing winning trades early. If the number of trades, stop loss, or percentage is reduced, the results are dramatically reduced. If traded at full size, a few bad trades may result in large drawdown or loss wiping out a lot of equity.

RBgold Supra

Very good. So far an exceptional rate of return with no knock your socks off draw downs.

RBgold Supra

!00% win months so far. Banking some good coin which is better than most systems I have subscribed to in the past. Exceptional rate of return if it continues .

ES Trend Follower

Hopefully the developer has not lost his touch. The most recent trades losers have been larger than the recent trade winners. With the win% in the 60 percentile this is unacceptable.

Optimized Partners II

I've been using this system for a few weeks and I have nothing but losses at the moment. The two other stock trading systems I subscribe to are up nicely over this period. I didn't like that the trader hedged his long positions with inverse ETFs. At one point the inverse ETFs were nicely profitable but he chose to let them go negative before closing them out. Stop loss/trailing stop anyone? Not impressed.

Killed Gold System 2

I like all the Goldmetre systems. This system started off a little flat but has since taken off with great returns. I highly recommend the whole Goldmetre family of gold systems.

Killed Gold System 1

Very nice return on this system even though it is young. Developer communicates well. March and April gave exceptional returns and May is already up 2.6%.

RBgold Supra

It's a young system, and it's had a good run so-far. There were some issues that prior reviewers mentioned, but since then the system has run smoothly. The system developer offers good communication. If it can maintain reasonable and sustainable levels of growth for a longer period of time, I'll happily change my rating of RBgold Supra to five stars.

Kingda Forex

Not worthwhile at all. Several small wining trades that makes lots of commissions and some huge lossess that wipe out all gains in a while.

Blue Iron

Be aware that this is a Martingale system, trade at your own risk!

Futures Growth Fund

Just another "lucky run" system. 52.5% return for the first 11 months and then flat performance for the last 11 months. Nothing special.

Whats a Matta u Test

Using the following criteria, I found that this fund is the best among all Collective 2 programs, so I put my money there. 1. Low draw down. 2. High positive trade %. 3. Max gain trade is higher than max loss trade. 4. More opportunities using different future markets. 5. Using high volume future market such as ES so he can handle more accounts without worrying move the market and slippages. Please tell If I wrote anything wrong, and any better programs you found in Collective 2. Yulin
