Frequently Asked Questions
What’s a Dynamic Stop?
Dynamic Stops is a cutting edge platform focused on long term capital growth & preservation
through quantitative analysis. We empower our clients with unbiased guidance on
when to “Buy” and “Sell” in the market. Over the long term, our system consistently
outperforms a “buy & hold” strategy for virtually all securities in the market.
When are Dynamic Stops calculated?
Dynamic Stops are calculated nightly with end-of-day data.
How often will I receive a tracking alert?
For subscribers, tracking alerts will be sent once one of the securities listed
in their portfolio changes status. To ensure email delivery please make sure we
are listed on your contacts list.
When do I take action?
Our signals are calculated after market close. If you receive a tracking alert,
it’s best to take action the next business day.
What about stock splits?
Stock splits will be reflected and adjusted in the historical data.
How do I know what stocks to buy?
We do not make suggestions on what to buy but subscribers can utilize our stock
screener to find securities that are on the move. It’s optimal to buy within a few
days of the trade signal.
What should I do if I want to buy a security in the middle of a trade?
We recommend that you err on the side of caution. Entering a position in the middle
of a buy or sell trade signal is usually more volatile, so in this case we would
recommend that you only invest a portion of your initial capital on your first trade.
Does Dynamic Stops guarantee that I make a profit?
No. Dynamic Stops is a tool to help you make investment decisions. We divulge the
historical performance of our system for all securities that we cover. However,
there’s no guarantee that past performance will guarantee future performance.
Is Dynamic Stops a “get rich quick” scheme?
No. Dynamic Stops is geared for long-term investing - this is not a day trading site!
Our signals are emotion-free and average out to be profitable over the long-term
for most securities.
What information does Dynamic Stops use to generate its signals?
Dynamic Stops is a quantitative based model that uses proprietary market-based information
and algorithms to generate its signals. The model is completely objective and neither human emotion
nor “judgment calls” figure into the equation.
If a current signal is losing money, should I sell?
No. No investment approach is 100% correct all of the time. Some trades may even end up losing
money when we close out a trade. However, if you exit a trade before it ends, you
will usually look back and wish that you had stuck it out. It is important to keep
your focus on the longer term and evaluate the performance of the signals based
on how the trade(s) perform from beginning to end.
Over the long term, you should see that the signals are slowly building your wealth
at a quicker, and with less risk than the general market. The most important thing
is to have the discipline to stick with it. If you are always second-guessing your
approach and making decisions based on emotion, you will almost certainly end up
losing money.
