Proof of success is relative. During the time when the markets have been down almost 40%, the Fission track record never went down more than about 3%.
Married puts in general are neutral to bullish strategies, this means that during a bear market, they will not return positive numbers.
We focus first on limiting risk – at the front end, then worry about getting returns.
Regarding the Track Record shown on the site…What’s notable, is the average return across all of those trades is still 2.32%, even though you see many losses. The trick is, the losses are many but small, the gains are few but large.
When you average the gains, average the losses, figure a probability of a loss, you can examine how 100 random trades handled “RadioActively” MIGHT turn out for you.
We provide the Trade Simulator tool to do exactly that.
If you enter the data from our track record into the Trade Simulator tool, you get favorable results, as you run the simulation over and over, by pressing F9, you can see that if we can keep the numbers comparable, the net change to the account is always positive.
Of course, there is no guarantee that you and we can keep the numbers as they have been, but we certainly hope to do at least this well, possibly even better in the future.
The IMPORTANT lesson to garner from our track record and the Trade Simulator tool is that you must limit your losses and let your gains run, otherwise over a lifetime of trades, you may not be able to grow your bottom line.
