Collective2 rates every trading system creator in its database and assigns a score between 100 and 1000.
In general, a rating above 500 is good. A rating above 700 is excellent.
Collective2 Ratings are recalculated daily based on the entire performance history in our database. The exact formula we use is proprietary, but there are several key variables that go into the Collective2 Rating.
One of the most important factors is the length of time we have been able to observe the performance of the trader.
Another key factor is the amount by which the trader over-performs or under-performs the S&P 500 index.
Finally, the choppiness of the trader's results is taken into account. Certainly a more consistent system creator will be rated more highly than a system creator with erratic results.

Subscribed for 6 months. Well run system. Very good for anyone looking for steady growth of equity.
Sept 23, 2008 from AutoTrader
I've been following this system for a long time, and Mr Haines in fact treats SMA as if some of his family's money were in it. He is careful to avoid big drawdowns, investing in a conservative manner. Still, returns are pretty decent for the low risk. I would recommend this system for my own family w/o reserve.
System Description
This is a trading program I have designed for some of my family.
This signal will trade with a 50% IWM weighting 25% QQQQ weighting and 25% MDY weighting. The account trades with an account value plus 75% margin. All signals have a technical trigger with another confirmation trigger. When both are in the same direction a signal will occur. It can hold between 0 and 3 positions at a time.

We have not verified that this text above is an accurate system description. Remember there is a substantial risk of loss in trading. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Do not trade with money you cannot afford to lose.
There is a free trial period of 30 days before you are charged.
You may cancel at any time before this (we send you an email at least a day before, to remind you, so there are no surprises.)
Then, after the trial, you will be charged $25 per month. (That is, we will charge you every 30 days - not when the month name on the calendar changes. So it's okay to sign up towards the end of a calendar month. You'll still get a full 30 days.)
