What is it exactly that you do and why should I care?

We specialize in the design and analysis of algorithms that forcast the short term behavior of the stock market. Our algorithms monitor over 2,000 stocks and ETFs on a daily basis so you don't have to. Without giving away our recipe for success, our algorithms essentially work by taking advantage of market overreactions caused by other investors' emotions and ignorance. So that you can also capatalize on these profits, we offer a subscription based service that allows you to receive the output of our proprietary algorithms on a daily basis (assuming at least one buy/sell signal is produced). As a result, you can purchase and sell the same stocks we do and realize similar gains to what our firm has been enjoying.

How do your emails work?

By 2:00 PM Eastern Time (or earlier) on every trading day that our algorithm produces a trade signal, we will send you an email to the email address you provided when signing up for our service. The email will contain a list of buy/sell orders that our state-of-the-art algorithm calculates as being optimal. A sell signal for a particular stock is only appropriate if you have previously purchased that stock immediately after receiving a corresponding buy signal from our algorithm. Warning: A sell signal does not mean that you should short sell a stock. In addition to sending you an email, we will also post the recommendations in the subscriber only section of this website.

Due to the short term strategies that we use, there will be some days that no signals are produced, and therefore, no emails are sent. You should nevertheless continue to monitor your email and/or our website on a daily basis so as not to miss any of our algorithm's buy/sell signals when they are produced. We have run into situations where no recommendations have been made for several days at a time. Please be patient during these times as our algorithm has made a decision that current market conditions are poor and do not favor any trades.

Why should I be interestested in short term trading?

In short, because it makes a lot of money and produces greater returns than traditional long term buy and hold strategies. We typically hold onto a stock for anywhere between one day and six months. The length of time to hold a stock is a bit of a tradeoff. By holding it longer, you have a higher probability of realizing a gain; however, the longer you hold it, the lower your APR (annual percentage rate) will be and the more likely it will succumb to a catastropic event (bankruptcy, downsizing, etc.).

What is an ETF and why should I be interested?

An ETF, or exhange-traded fund, is a pool of stock positions that either moves with or against a particular market (domestic and foreign) or a particular sector. ETFs allow you to bet against the market without the need to initiate short positions in a stock or buy put options. Another advantage of ETFs is that they not quite as volatile at a stock. A stock can can go to nearly zero overnight. While we won't say this is not possible for an ETF, it is highly unlikely. At Cowboy Dream Investing, we are primarily interested in the 3x leveraged ETFs, which give you more bang for your buck.

Is it true that you donate 5% of all your proceeds through this service to charity?

Yes! We donate 5% to various charities such as St. Jude, the American Cancer Society, and others. We focus exclusively on non-profit organizations that specialize in medical research geared towards children. We have big hearts and it is our philosophy that one must give in order to receive. By subscribing to our service, you are also giving to a good cause.

How do I know that your algorithms do what they say they do?

All our algorithms are extensively back-tested against years of historical stock data as well as more current daily data. Each algorithm that we utilize in the public domain has been proven to significantly out-perform randomized trading strategies (e.g. strategies that perform much like the Wall Street averages). That being said, neither we nor any other trading analytics firm can guarantee positive returns. The stock market is never without risk. If you want a riskless investment, bonds or a certificate of deposit may be a better choice.

Why not use a mutual fund instead?

Simply put, we generate better results and don't charge as much. Take a look at this link and compare their performance with ours. Mutual funds are for those seeking to make perhaps 10% or so per year while sitting idle (and that's if you're lucky). While the use of our service does involve a nominal amount of daily involvement (i.e. checking your email and filling any buy/sell orders), this activity will take less time than taking a shower and brushing your teeth. Why not devote five minutes of your time every weekday and generate 30%, 40%, 50% or more per year?

How many years of experience do I need to be able to understand and use the Cowboy Dream Investing Analytics service?

Our service is designed to meet the needs of the first time investor as well as those of seasoned investors and investment firms. The only skills you need in order to take advantage of our service is the ability to check your email and then log into an online brokerage in order to purchase/sell stocks and other financial instruments as necessary. Your online broker should be able to provide assistance with the latter step if needed.

What kind of annual returns can I expect to receive?

This is a difficult question since your APR can vary drastically from year to year. We have averaged over 50% APR over the last three years. Moreover, despite the rough market conditions this summer, our algorithms have produce an APR of more than 30% this year.

How do I get started?

Please visit our subscription page and take advantage of our 7 day free offer. Once you register and select a username and password, we will begin sending you emails within the next two business days (most likely one business day if you don’t subscribe at some random time in the middle of the night). You will be able to see our BUY/SELL signals right away by logging into the subscriber only section of our website. In order to make the best use of our service, you will concurrently need to set up a brokerage account with some online broker if you don’t already have one: otherwise, our signals will be meaningless. For out stock and ETF forcasting products, a cash account will be sufficient.

Does your service track my results?

No! This is a service that your online broker should offer you. Additionally, there is plenty of software out there (a lot of it is free) that allows you to manage your portfolio. We are not in the business of re-inventing the wheel. We focus our time and energy on developing novel trading algorithms that generative massive returns. We do, however, track the results of our BUY/SELL signals and collect and publish statistics regarding their performance.

Your algorithm told me to buy/sell the stock ABC. It did not tell me how many shares to buy/sell. How many shares should I trade?

Unfortunately, we cannot tell you exactly how many shares to buy/sell as this depends on each user’s portfolio and account balance. Doing so would constitute giving individual financial advice and we are not financial advisors. As a general rule of thumb, you want to buy enough stock so as to minimize the effect of commission. On the other hand, for the sake of diversification, you don’t want too much of any one stock. Generally, upon a buy signal for a stock, one should try to buy at least $1000 or more worth of the stock. In the case of an ETF, you should shoot for $2500 so as to offset commission costs that will be associated with your trades. Please see the user manual for more details.

Should I invest all my money into one stock or should I diversify?

Our algorithms are correct approximately 80-90% of the time. In other words, every now and then, we will make an incorrect prediction. If you offset one bad position with nine good positions, then you will still make money. Unfortunately, it is impossible to be correct 100% of the time in the stock market, however the risk can be mitigated through diversification. You should always try to hold positions in at least 5 or 10 stocks. You should never invest all your money entirely into one stock.

Do you have technical support?

Yes! You can email us and we will respond to any questions within 24 hours.

Can you sell me any stocks directly or give me personalized financial advice?

No! We are neither stock brokers/dealers nor financial advisors. We are algorithm developers who allow you to subscribe to our proprietary algorithm’s buy/sell signals. We do not offer any individualized advice and recommend that you speak to a registered financial advisor if you are unsure about what you are doing.

Which broker should I use? Can you recommend one?

We do not currently endorse any one particular broker; however, your broker should be online, be capable of processing buy/sell orders instantly or within a few minutes, and charge a minimal amount of commission. There are brokers out there that charge less than $5 per transaction. In addition, many brokers offer a certain number of free trades per month if you maintain some minimal account balance. Before selecting any one broker, be sure to review all the fees that they charge to make sure that they won’t affect your bottom line. In algorithmic trading, brokerage costs should be kept to a minimum.

Can I unsubscribe if I’m not happy with your service?

Yes, you may cancel your subscription with us at any time and for any reason. We will no longer charge your credit/debit card or Paypal account after that point. Any charges prior to your cancellation are non-refundable. If you wish to unsubscribe, please use the Unsubscribe button on the subscription page. However, we are confident that you will not want to cancel once you start making money with our system.
