39.5% annulaized is a number most broad-beased mutual funds would give their eye-teeth to show the public.
potential subscribers will of course do the math on the fee versus return to make sure they deploy a large enough account so that fees don't put them into a negative return.
for example a $10,000 account would only break-even or worse after paying fees.

Nice smooth equity curve and trades lasting only 1 day. Potential subscribers would want to carefully do the math on fees VS annulaized rate of return. Example $10,000 account could go up $4,000 per year and $125 X 12 months = $1,500 in fees per year.

Then you want to do the math on trading commissions. This system shows 643 trades as of 12/30/10. At $10 per round trip (buy-sell) that could be $6,430 in commissions.

This is a nice and steady performing system with 50% annulaized results. It goes without saying that 1,800 trades is a substantial amount of brokerage fees and C2 users will want to slowly and carefully asses both trading fees and the 99 per month cost over 3 years results.

The bottom line will be how much money will you need to get good results after all those fees.

As with any and all systems, your own diligence will determine your end result when costs like those are involved.

Nice rising equity curve. Prospective users would need to look hard at the returns versus monthly fee and perform diligence on the true bottom line.

For example a $10,000 account could gain $4,900 per year based on the existing track record but fees would be $3,240 based on $270 per month.

Potential subscribers would of course run the numbers down to net of fees against some other popular system like ETF timer. Last I looked he was showing 100%+ per year in the grid section and roughly 1/3 the fee of Vt 26.

Only your net bottom line matters.

nice returns at 27% annualized. During the same period there are basically no broad-based mutual funds who have done as well.

free pricing is intriguing but as always potential users need to see what else is out there and do the math for themselves.

for example ETF Timer costs $97 per month and does over 100% annualized acording to the grid section. One might say yes but 'what about that fee'. Analysis below.

Lets say you had a 10K account, it increased 10k per year and you had to pay him $1,200 (rounded) in fees.

Net of fees is a return of $8,800 or 88%; now what did Broadsword get you fees or not. At the displayed rate you made $2,700 from Broadsword VS $8,800 (net of fees) for ETF Timer.

The above is just a generic example of user diligence, understanding net return.
