Excellent strategy. He consistently brings profit to his clients with good risk management.. Very good trader with very balanced mind set.

Very poor…lost 20 k… and no sense of stop loss.

Not good compared to other peers. Win rate is less compared to Loss. After paying the commission and fees not worth continuing.

Very good trader with very balanced mind set. He knows what he is doing.

Reduced from 3 stars to 1 star. No communication. Non existent stop-losses. Keeps doubling down on a losing short side bet and adds to losses.

Death by a thousand cuts, zero communication from trade leader. Look carefully at trade record to see how easy it can be with options to hide adding to losing positions.

The strategy works better in trending markets. It has not responded very well on this bumpy and volatile market now. It's becoming unattractive for small accounts (like mine , ~25k) with a monthly subscription of $98. It's unreasonable to me that strategy manager charges the same amount for 50 Plus and 500 Plus when clearly account sizes on those strategies will be different. I suggest to reduce monthly subscription for the 50 Plus for a better chance on small account owners.

Long entry points are good, but short entry points are not. The short side conviction and hence the position size's are larger creating big whipsaw's and drawdowns. It was a stable strategy before, but not anymore.

I lost so much money and there is no reliability in the strategy.

It's been a challenging year for most of us but although this one has had it's ups and downs, it's still sitting in the green overall. I can't complain when most of my peers are seeing 20-30% losses this year.

About half a year of subscription and nearly -5% on the account return, excluding 200$/m fee on top of this. So I lost a few thousand again, which is better than losing 20k, like the last time, I was subscribed to a system with a very steady-looking P&L. Whatever the statistics are telling you, do not believe, you must set stop losses and cut losing performers asap. This strategy cannot cope with the current market. Maybe it is better in a steady market, but so are many others.

I checked out a lot of the strategies on Collective2 and some of them look like they make a lot of gains but some trade small caps, so it doesn't really seem feasible.
Overall, I wanted to find a Strategy that could outperform the inflation rate and this one hasn't failed me yet.
The only thing that I would like to see improvement from this strategy would be allowing us to scale to 500%.

Nice consistent system traded as described. Profitable both long and short.

Struggling to find winning but let's see ... as of now 50/50.

Keep away... not a good strategy.

This trader DESTROYED my account. I asked him specifically about his trading strategy if he uses stop loss with each trade and his risk management. He said he uses stop losses and limit loss to around $3,000 per trade, but turned out he doesn’t . So he is a LIAR!! He holds his position against 3-4% market moves!! I texted him back and he doesn’t give a clear answers. I don't understand his logic. Look at the drawdowns and you will see. Look at his other strategies his profile history. He is a very dangerous trader that is NOT HONEST and obviously cares just to get paid and doesn’t care about his subscribers. I want to know why he doesn’t trade his own funds then? STAY AWAY from Mark Andersson and subscribe with other responsible traders. I have other 4 strategies that made profits and he made large drawdowns to my account because he is DANGEROUS and BAD TRADER.

he probably had something in June: he disappeared leaving a lot of contract expiring in 2 strategies (that however means trades hadn't the stop)

I've had the pleasure of trading the Stella Capital 50 Plus strategy since October 2021. During this period, my returns have been much higher with this strategy than with my own trading efforts. This speaks not only to the Manager's skills at reading the market, but also his/her trading philosophy, in which he/she emphasizes the fundamentals of discipline, risk management, and positive expectancy. Drawing on this philosophy and decades of experience, the Manager is very transparent and conscientious about his/her thought process, and does not hesitate to acknowledge and learn from losses when they occur. As such, I have learned an immense amount from the Manager's trading emails, which alone are worth the subscription cost.

As I approach one year of trading this strategy, and as we enter a bear market, I'm convinced that the Stella Capital 50 Plus strategy is poised to succeed over the long term, irrespective of market conditions. I have found no other strategy that combines such exceptional market intuition with time-tested trading principles to deliver sustained alpha to traders large and small alike.

Trend following 2X the S&P long and short. Easy to trade manually as trades are infrequent. Results to date have been strong.

Lost lot of money, will keep the futures overnight and over the weekend. No clear strategy .

No communication. No reply message. Trader not frequently logged in.

Not what I expected.

Not good so far. if you subscribe, make sure you set a reasonable stop loss

Great price, great performance so far.

It's a strategy left to chance. The trader does not respond to the message.

I will give 5 stars to the strategy manager. He consistently brings profit to his clients. In a few cases, although his drawdown was higher, he knows how to bring the trade close to breakeven or profit.

I was looking for a little more activity to take advantage of the market volatility. Ended up cancelling.

Manager MISSING! Does not support the Strategy. He left the futures positions open despite these EXPIRED!!!!! A Fool.

The best i can imagine

NO RISK MANAGEMENT- NO COMMUNICATIONS -STAY AWAY

I love C2; easy trading and can make money! Play with "The grid" and find out what meets you investment objective.

Terrible strategy. No risk management whatsoever.

Terrible strategy. Doesn't have any risk management.

This was a really good strat until they blew up the account. I liked the short trades that made it's profit then walked away. I hope they come back with a similar strat, and figure out how to use a stop loss. I would definitely sub to new strat if these guys make another try.

Terrible. Poor risk management . I don't think this strategy has any chance to succeed in the long term.
I understand that there are good days and bad days but one important part of any day trading is risk management and this strategy has none..

Strategy seemed to be really solid right up until it wasn’t. That was about when I got in and then out. I hope the manager gets it fixed/more robust and re-launches. Happy to try again.

Top notch communication, and top notch results. I sleep sound with NQ Quickie.

This is an excellent strategy. It is a trend following strategy to the long side so there are some paper cuts during down cycles as it will test for longs, but there are good stops and for the most part it stays in cash down cycles, like we've had in Jan - May 2022.

Really bad ...

Whilst the poor performance speaks for itself. I find the Trade Leader's poor communication even more astonishing. Blowing up the account and just disappearing is terrible form. I've learnt a costly lesson: it is better to spend time finding good Trade Leaders who can communicate what they and their strategy are all about. Returns mean nothing if the Trade Leader can blow up your account and disappear. And WOW even had the nerve to charge a $300 monthly subscription.

This was a good little money maker for me until it blew up the account. Maybe in the next strategy the trade leader will figure out how a stop loss works.

2 bad days, blew up my account. Thanks for that

I would have expected a 20 k profit by now but I see a potential…

Looking forward this month to make a 20% profit this month.

This strategy trades the ES futures once per week (currently). A long or short position is taken early in the week...usually on Sunday. Stop-loss and take-profit orders are placed at the same time. It has a fixed risk/reward of about 1:1 with a win rate of about 70%. The position usually closes the next day.

The strategy manager understands risk and works to manage it. He sends out frequent communications and is responsive to private questions.

Initially I misunderstood how to scale the strategy. I scaled based on the current value of the account on the strategy's home page (which is ~$28K as of May 10, 2022). However, the scaling needs to be based on the strategy's notional value (which isn't visible) but according to the strategy manager is about $50K.

Thus if I had a $30K account, I might have assumed that I should scale at 100% (to match the home page value). But the correct sizing would actually be 60%.

In March 2022, I started by trading the strategy in a simulation account. After a few weeks, I was motivated to go live. In the past five weeks of live trading, there have been four wins and one loss. I am pleased with the results.

Excellent strategy. Nice consistent profits with good risk management, few large draw downs or volatile fluctuations. Strongly recommend if you're looking to diversify in FX trades.
Thank you, Michael. Great job.

I don't like strategies without clearly defined position sizing where the trader's decisions appear to be subjective. When the trade leader goes from the usual few contracts to 41 and happens to have a bad day, your account will have a terrible day. I prefer strategies with more structure where I know what a bad can look like, and more importantly, profits and capital are not wiped out with one bad day. I don't care so much about the profits as these take care of themselves. It's the downside that concerns me the most. I am not sure how a trader leader can be down over 30% in one day and call their strategy robust. I think this market will shake out a lot of strategies that may have performed well during the bull market. I hope the trade leader doesn't have two bad days in a row.

Results look great, but I have a couple reservations: inconsistent sizing of trades is confusing to me, and the inability to leverage makes this a strategy that I can't easily fit into my bullpen.

Didn't make money the month I subscribed but clearly a thought leader in volatility strategies. Algorithmic execution, thoughtful systematic approach, and appears to constantly be working to better the strategy.

Hard Road successes came b4 I subscribed - strategy was down 20%+ the month I subscribed after previous max drawdown of 7%. Needs work on volatility management.

Good Analysis and only invests when having a proper direction.

Good Analysis and only invests when having a proper direction.

No proper Strategy. looks like investing with gut instead of proper analysis.

Does lot of trades in a day, but will work out to advantage at the end.

Very Effective and balanced strategy.

Terrible strategy. Only goes long and in a market like this you should be able to go both ways. Also holds over night and not good in a volatile market currently. Gets too many contracts and tries to double down and ends up losing more. If you want to make money go elsewhere. If you want to blow your account stay here.

worst possible strategy. stops are very large. drawdowns are huge.
worst possible trader with no conscience for others money
no recovery strategy

Very stable, well balanced and disciplined strategy. Recovered my losses from other strategies.

Not only does this strategy do very well and have great returns, but the trade manager is very communicative with lots of updates and is humble in his emails. Definitely recommend!

Been with Ark1 for a couple months now, the returns are predictable and very strong. Very happy with the performance - drawdowns are limited as well, it's not super volatile of a strategy compared to others.

I have followed this strategy since early on and also follow ARK 1. The returns have been great and drawdowns tolerable. After you are on C2 for a while you can tell who the disciplined, consistent traders are and this is one. This year it has been especially nice to diversify with a market that doesn't correlate with the S&P. Highly recommended but stick to the recommended capital requirements because trades tend to draw down a bit before they trend. Management fee on the high side, but so far it has easily paid for itself to say the least.

Worst strategy on C2 I've tried to date.

Very impressive and the strategy is making money as suggested by the hypotheticals. I am running it off and on but looking to have it turned on permenantly. Have noticed that currencies are being traded but I only have a futures acc so can not accomodate that at the moment.

worest

Excellent so far keep up the good work. Sometimes drawdowns are bit huge but overall positives and good returns which is great. Strongly recommonded strategy.

Excellent.

Very well balanced trader. He knows what he is doing. Very happy with his trades.

very huge stop losses
my account is down 30% since i started following the strategy

To see how this system stands out, try doing a "Grid" search on all C2 Stock systems with a Sharpe ratio > 2 and an age greater than 600 days. One system comes up (as of 4/6/22) -- this one. It's expensive, but worth if it you have enough trading capital.

Awesome strategy

The result has been exceptional, very consistent. I have high confidence in the strategy manager, but $300/mo may be too expensive for someone following with same trader account size (~11,700 usd at time of this post)

Very aggressive strategy

Good one

Awesome strategy????????????

Would advise staying away from - new strategy and the losing trades are often double the size of the largest winning trades, showing poor risk management. Lost money overall.

Awesome Trader.. one of the best Strategy in C2 for sure.

Liked the strategy

One of the best strategies. Very happy with ARK

Good Strategy

Like the strategy.

Bit complex strategy

Ok Strategy

Consistent Results

Great Strategy and diligent on how and when it places the trades

Very good and cautious

they are so good

Consistent Results

Very good Strategy.

Strategy doesnt handle the volatility. This strategy is good for few mins scalp if market is directional. Complete gambling but it works if market is stable or directional for few hours atleast. If the market is volatile then this strategy gets into loss as the manager doesnt have patience to hold the trade or hedge it as well. Good luck to others.

Since he activated his new strategy, he was not consistent.

He does his home work before start of every day trade. He comes up with analysis with when to get in and when to get out.
He has excellent knowledge about trading , he gives so much confidence that even if he places bad trade , I am confident enough that he will get back the loss in next trade. I have no stress or worries when he is trading .
He is master of analysis , he goes with analysis , rather then emotions.
Lucky to know him and to subscribe to the strategy

Super Good.

Rocking and rolling. This has been solid so far. Three months in.

The system is level played with hard stop and deciplined with sustainable growth, suited for a volatile market trading range. Looking forward for the long term.

Very balanced trader. Very happy with his trades so far.

VERY POOR . NO RISK MANAGEMENT . STAY AWAY

I really like it.....

After the trader let the stop go for a more than 100pts later, he tried to average down which leads to a 13k loss with 2+2NQ. Next 2 days the trader went wild which leads to a total loss of 45k of the whole account. I was lucky to cut the loss and stop auto trade immidiately when he missed his stop!
