so far so good. the system seem to buy every dip on ES, then if ES futures rebounds he buys STOXX50 because most likely EU market will follow US market. So far every dip in the stock market has been rally back, so there is never any draw down or loss yet. Don't really know how good this strategy is until the BULL market is over or at least when the stock market doesn't only go up after 1-2 down days. |

Fantastic system. I have been trading since August, 2016 in a different account. It is supposed to be purely algorithmic. It is long-only and IRA friendly, although it goes long and short via the ETF's it trades. It trades DUST and NUGT, which are not common investment vehicles on C2, and theoretically not correlated with VIX products and broad indices. Do I like it? Well, I am paying for two subscriptions... |

Before trading this, I was on R Option (the larger version) for a few months. All around, Mario is really helpful, and willing to chat about how best to approach his systems. So far, I am pleased with the results of the systems and the way in which risk and profit are managed. |

After about 2 weeks of subscription to Quant Models Volatility, the returns have been pretty good, only reason I have not given 5 stars is that I've been subscribed only 2 weeks. Any time I send a message to the system developer I get a fairly prompt response that is informative and to the point. I plan to stay with this system long term. |

Great start on C2, but still a young system. Trades futures on European and US indices, providing some diversification. Trades very selectively, so limited market exposure. Trade leader is responsive to inquiries. Hopefully outstanding performance will continue in different market cycles. Time will tell! |

I have subscribed many models since I joined C2 almost 2 years. I am very happy the way he manages his acct. He let the profit run and cut when there is significant pressure. He just manages his acct perfectly. Btw, u should prepare when the market against ur position but his risk n rewards are acceptable for my risk profile. Another thing, this is the example how the manager is making real money from his trade, not from his subscribers fee. I also like , he has long records since 2014 and never change his trading style. His style works in every conditions. In summary, I will keep his model for long term. Nice job |

My trades match his perfectly, no slippage. Consistent daily gains with Chris's algo. . 4-5 winning trades per day. 92% winning % & RARELY holds trades overnight. This is a real, daily income generator. Winning in up AND down days with XIV. Quick trades at the right time. I hope it continues to do well. The owner is very insightful & takes the time to explain how/why this strategy works. My favorite strategy right now. |

Even after the big hit we took in May, I plan on owning this strategy for years to come. Just look @ how well it did over the last 12 months. He handled the bump in April quite well. The owner makes it well clear this is a volatile strategy & you need to be prepared for some ups & downs. If you have a few years left before retirement, definitely consider investing a small portion of your portfolio in this strategy. |

I have no idea why I allowed myself to get caught up in subscribing to this one. Its performance is pure luck. It simply sells naked out-of-the-money UVXY calls and let's them expire. During the spike of 2014, I would've lost up to 4x my account value, depending upon when my position was closed by the broker. There is no hedge against that risk whatsoever; therefore, its performance numbers look great. This is why there is no free preview to allow you time to realize what you did. |

Clear disclosure of risk given excessive returns. Would like to see it back tested further to understand performance pre 07. Would like to understand risk per trade better, where the actual stop is etc because black swan event could wipe out completely. Remember can always get back into trade. Otherwise good let's make some moolah!!! |

This is a very good, consistent, conservative VIX trading system. Good #'s this year so far, low DD. At $99.00 , this would be a 4* review. At this time it is free, thus, it deserves 5* in my opinion. Excellent "value". Especially after it handled the recent mid-May XIV pullback. I hope this strategy continues to do well & the creator is able to get paid for his/her hard work. I plan on keeping it even when they start charging, as I like the idea of having several VIX strategies in my portfolio. |

Recently the trades are based on "cut the profits short, let the losses run and add to the losing trades" principle, which should be the opposite, in my opinion. You can see this from constantly decreasing profit factor. And I strongly believe the trades are not based on events as the vendor suggests. This is just another system started strongly but continues to perform poorly. Be careful with the risks involved (too many trades and therefore too many exposure, adding to losing trades, cutting the profits short etc.). |

I personally don't like his trading style. I prefer traders that trade in a limited number of securities; I believe he trades in way too many markets. I am letting my subscription lapse and wish him the best. |

I don't think the owner gives himself enough credit. He constantly warns of potential losses someday and reiterates this is a "long-term" strategy, but then turns what could've ( should've ) been an April loss into a 29% gain? At $99 a month, this is still a bargain. I plan on having this strategy be part of my portfolio indefinitely. They say the "big drop" will happen again someday in the VIX, but if you've been lucky enough to own this strategy since the beginning of the year, you are already $ ahead in my opinion, your investment has doubled. This guy KNOWS what he's doing. |

Seems a robust volatility strategy, backtested from 2004 so we can see the satisfactory behavior during 2008 crisis. 4 stars only because of an abnormal trade which caused a bigger loss than expected recently and because there is no progressive position entry or output. |

Careful with this one - it is volatile. Wide intraday swings as this is an "all in" system utilizing most all the strategies capital using 3x ETF leverage. Scale down early rather than later. |

Seems like a good system and CJ has a professional attitude towards his work and provides good information on market conditions affecting the system. The recent drawdown of 25% has spooked some customers, but it's typical os volatility systems doing over 70% yearly. |

Hello, I think I was extremely unlucky with my timing! When I became a member the strategy dropped considerably. Lost 4 of the 5 thousand in a matter of two weeks or so. But I'm still following the strategy. Believing and hoping the system will recover my losses! |

This system is one of the best kept secrets on C2. It trades infrequently and holds the positions for a short amount of time, thereby providing very little exposure to market risks. The win rate is super-high without any Martingale. I simply trade it with high scaling and a safety stop to provide decent returns. |

Must stay away from this system. Low return high DD, can blow out ur acct. 100% true. U can win $100 but lost over $10000. Check his history if u don't believe me. If u are current subscribers, turn off this model now while u still have funds in ur acct |

I've already sold OTM option to get premium, and the trades made here seem very sound: the strike is well chosen and the trades are followed up, closed sometimes before expiration if risk arises. But it's not a long time enough since this strategy exists to have a very relevant opinion, and the developer already proposed some fickle strategies by the past... |

Unfortunately I had signed up during the recent DD period which happens. but, I was disappointed in the fact that the trader seemed to have changed his strategy to a more aggressive one during and after this period. He began to executed trades that held more lots and wasn't done in the past. Also, the execution of simultaneous trades was problematic for me to keep up with the leverage requirements. |

Tim's parameters are clearly very good. (Wish I knew what they are). And Tim has been good about taking the time to answer my questions, and promptly, on how to be a participant. I also admire his decision to grandfather-in current member fee rates, and notifying everyone of coming fee increases beforehand. |

After a fantastic start it turned out that it was a fluke and the developer himself doesn't trust his system. After a DD of 15%, that in itself for a robust system is not unprecedented, he closed all (losing) position and switched to a new system, broadcasting that the DD will be bigger, the risk will be bigger, the margin requirements will be bigger but we should trust the system, because the results backtested for 3 whole months (!!) [not published, btw] are very promising. Subscribe at your own risk, but one thing is for sure: the published trades and statistics are NOT relevant to the current system. |

I share the sentiment of previous reviewer about latest draw down letting happen when it could have easily been avoided. Trading can be so simple if you have infinite draw down, eventually the market will turn around one day.. but that is not responsible trading for us who have our investments in the system. Hopefully System provider turns his risk down and creates a better risk / reward for future or this system will fall down fast. |

Was good until yesterday (fed day). Small profits, but large draw downs being allowed, not sure why. Entire profit of 2 months down in two days. But I still want to be in. Hope for the best. |

This is a grid system which tends to make small profits per trade. The system adds equal lots to losing trades in a narrow range. I've seen this style of trading before and it can be dangerous if a pair moves against the trade and doesn't return - which happens in forex. |

So far I am happy with the results of this system after couple of months with good and less good trades, I believe the developer is doing a good job and has good risk management. It has given me small but consistent returns overtime. I would recommend it and hope ConservProfit continues to be true to its pledge. After seeing its actions I trust this FX trader better than other systems (that have lost me money trading Futures). |

Pros: trades often - finds many opportunities, reasonable timing of entries. Cons: averages down significantly when trades enters a loss. The stop is very large in relation to the typical profit and it sometimes get pulled back. Some trades are held over the weekend. Track record looks super and the fees are very low - the big question is how will the system handle a large adverse move that arrives after averaging down. Personally I don't like the way risk management is done here. If you trade it, better keep it small. |

Ryan and his team have a very nice set of models available, he is always responsive to messages, and is working very hard to monitor and always improve his services. Recently for example increasing the numbers of algorithms working in particular systems to increase diversification and potentially reduce draw-downs. Subscribers will need to realize that back-tested results can never be 100% reliable, they are created with a preexisting data set, and their profitability with regard to out of sample data can never be assured. Nevertheless, if his models get only 50% of the profits suggested indicated by back testing, I for one would be delighted. Also, his live trading results so far give every confidence in the validity of the back tested results. I'm very happy with the new Gold Day Trading system, as its nice to not be exposed to overnight volatility, and you can make use of the 4x day trader margin available to IB users. Basically I love Ryan's systems and wish we could be subscribed to all of them! |

Stay away from this strategy unless you know what you are subscribing to. This strategy is day trading TF and is closing all positions before close of trading day, which is good. The negatives are: 1. Wide stop loss (similar to that for swing), 2. Counter-trend trades 3. Late day trade (opening trade within last two hours of trading day, not giving enough time for trade to develop). 4. Forcing trades when market is sideways while this strategy would work only in trending market just like its name. I lost over USD 3000 within 5 trading days plus USD 200 in subscription fee. Definitely not for me. |

This is one of the better strategies in the Forex Space. The manager of this strategy uses auto trading and manual trading very well with reasonable discipline. Forex is prone to GAPS such as the GBP flash crash etc, so I can only give this a 3. This isn't a reflection of the manager, its really the volatility associated with Forex. The highest I would give any Forex Manager is 3 out of 5 stars. |

I've been using this system for 2 years and few months, I feel quite confortable with the system, it never have had big moves against us and performance talk by itself. I dont give 5 stars because the owner dont give a lot of comunication about the system, but the true is that its a mechanical system that do what it has do do, system owner is responsive if you write him. |

The strategy shows very good results, but running it live i see things that i do not like. The trader is taking a lot of risk and is using very high stops. He holds losing position for a long time and also pays back a lot to the market when he is in green. I am about to unsubscribe from this system because i think it will not be profitbale on the longer run. |

Is this a good system? Hard to say but I suspect it is. The system is discretionary and the developer traded infrequently (at least in the period i've subscribed for). The one issue I have with the system is that it suffers hugely from slippage. I suspect this isn't a broker issue but rather to do with transmission of orders from C2 to subscriber's broker accounts. The impact on profit and loss is signification which is why I can't continue to subscribe to this system until C2 can resolve it. |

This is one very risky strategy. I have to agree with the other negative comments. There is no risk- or money-management, huge drawdowns, no stop losses, no exit strategy. Just gambling. After January 2017 one has to wonder if the trader want's to loose money deliberately. Going long for 6 weeks on UVXY is one crazy trade. Even a beginner wouldn't make a mistake like that. I'm just glad I got out in time. Don't get fooled by the TOS. The trader doesn't care about capital preservation. Avoid also his other TOS strategy "VolatilityTrader", same foolish volatility trades against a very strong trend. |

I am only 3 weeks into a Russell Trending subscription. This system had a very strong start during last 2 months of 2016, followed by an ok Jan 2017, but the last 3 weeks have been flat, after several losing trades followed by a few gainers. The developer has indicated some changes are needed due to # of subscribers, however it is hard to shell out $299/mo for subscription +autotrade and watch days go by with no trades at all. This system use to trade daily with an average holding period of less than 1 hr, so it is hard to fathom that no trade opportunities come up during any trading day. Some of the days have been trending some have been a saw, but they all appeared to have short-term trade opportunities. I'm hoping the developer has not become gun-shy, This market is tough with black and white swan tweets but still tradeable and this developer has shown a good ability to trade in this environment in the past. I will be patient but not forever. |

On 9th Jan, ILMN-Stock jumped 30% after market closure. Beeing on the short side was bad luck, no blame about that. But shorting SVXY and going long on TVIX for over a month? Sorry, I don't get it! Other volatility traders on Collective2 are succesfully trading just the opposite for a long time. Against all odds, the first few days SVXY & TVIX trades were in profit, but nothing was done to secure those profits. After that, the trades turned into a loss, and after realizing the mistake, those trades were still not closed by the trader. So after over a month we are still like sitting ducks and watching the huge losses incrasing daily. The Trader is surely very knowledgeable, but after Jan 2017, I totally lost confidence in the strategy. I couldn't see any proper risk management, no capital protection, a huge (unecessary) drawdown, and no exit point. That's why I'm not going to risk my own hard earned money with this trader any longer. And I can't really recommend this strategy to anyone anymore, despite the TOS and a good 2016 performance. |

Good system. No fake stats here. Only thing I would say is it is a little expensive. However, if he keeps generating returns like he has been in the recent past, I would gladly pay the signal fees. |

It's been only a few days of trading with this algorithm and i had one week of trial. The trial period came with a loss but the live trading brought some profits. I have no reason to give less than 5 stars but beware that i only had 1 week of trading with it. C2 favors algorithms makers by asking people to review the algos shortly after the subscription, before the bad things happen (and they will) |

Very disappointed. Can understand some poor performance, but all gains wiped out in very short time. Much worse for recent subscribers who did not participate in initial gains. Plus the developer, FXWeapon has not been online for 9 days, nor has he provided any updates or explanation. Significant to note that he has 2 earlier systems that commenced well then suffered big losses and appear to have been abandoned. Admin at C2 should investigate |

I would give this system 5 stars but I'm waiting for the inevitable huge draw down (and how ConservProfit handles it) which will occur sooner or later. To the vendors credit, he has cautioned of the coming DD and to position accordingly. Having said that the system has preformed extremely well in all sorts of market conditions. |

I have tried a lot of Systems, this is my first review and I am excited to recommend this system if you want a good money manager. There are some that just trade without the human element, but this system brings both to the table. He doesn't let you loose too much and he is positive at a very high rate. I will subscribe to more systems from this man and let my account grow. |

I feel these review requests need to be sent out 6 months or more after we start a new system, 1 week is too early to say much! From what I can see however the system trades tightly and conservatively and I have felt confident during the recent changeable market conditions. There can be quite a few individual buy and sell signals through the day (selling and buying back parcels of VXX) so the cheap commissions at IB are very helpful in keeping costs in check. Owner seems very responsive, committed and professional. Obviously performance is exceptional based on the short Collective history and longer back tested results. |

This system had a great start which attracted a lot of money. Unfortunately it's been losing since I subscribed. I wonder if the strategy, which uses limit orders, still works when there is a lot of money following it. There are a lot of contracts now sitting at the system's key levels in limit orders and I worry that has effected how the market acts near those prices and how the system performs. Hopefully it's not a problem and the system continues up soon. It is a disciplined system with stops and well defined levels that are followed. Upside before I subscribed was incredible and downside has been low for how much upside so far, but I'd like to see some upside myself. |

I have been subscribed to this system for a month. During this time the system performed 10 trading operations, 7 at a loss. DD is not very high because stops are tight, but the subscription fee does not reccomend additional tests. Communication is poor. |

Strategy is good. Developer is knowledgable and keeps everyone informed. Conservative trader that uses stops. Slippage is bad. IB needs to address this matter. 2 stars due to slippage issue |

I've just started, but the system looks good. I've followed the trader for a long time and I know he is very serious about his work, so I have high expectations. |

After reviewing all the available backtests on www.quantimer.net I decided to subscribe to Quantimer VIX-L just after its launch. The system uses stop-loss and trailing-stop, so losses will be kept low. There is no adding of positions during a drawdown (no martingale). The max. drawdown was about 30% in the past 6 years of backtesting, while profits could raise up to 20%-40% a month or 200-400% a year. Quantimer VIX-L is leveraged on the short side; so it is a risky strategy. Therefore be sure to not invest all your money in one strategy only, I prefer to use it as diversification with other Collective2-strategies. The recommended 25K are OK, but 10K will also work very well. So far this is one of my top favourite strategies on Collective2. The developers are very friendly and do answer quickly to questions. In the long term this could become a strategy with awsome profits. So I hope it will be available on C2 for many many years to come. |

On the positive side : Fairly conservative system, every trade starts with a defined stop loss and gain in place. No Martingale beaviour. Easily scaled up. Small entry capital. Low DD, Steady gains. On the negative : Pricey. Little communication from the Author, regular (weekly or bi-weekly) broadcasts would be helpful to the subscribers. |

This trading strategy involves buying at closing, which to me isn't a good trading habit. In my opinion, you should end the day with no position for day trading. There have been too many times where the position that was bouhht at closing opened negative double digits. |

Great risk/reward for almost every trade. the creator has clearly put a lot of effort and time into creating and managing this strategy. |

I haven’t been much of a review writer here lately, but seeing Mr Money Tree get its first negative review made me pick up my pen to try to set the record straight. The review I feel is very unfair, a purely emotional response to the system’s 7% drawdown this month (it began to recover nicely on Friday). Like the previous reviewer, I’ve also lost some money in December -- but looking at the system’s entire history, a drawdown in the range of 7-11% will happen from time to time and is nothing to get shaken up about. Not when the equity always recovers and goes on to new heights in a very short period of time. The system owner seems to be a mature individual with a steady hand and a conservative approach. Positions are never carried overnight, and there is no Martingale to be seen in any of the 104 trades to date. Even though the equity has doubled in only 5 months of existence (363% annual return at the moment), the owner still commits only a single contract per trade and has stated that is his intention for the foreseeable future. Contrary to the previous reviewer’s theories, the owner does not use Bollinger, RSI, or any type of mean reversion strategy. His approach is simple, repeatable, and gives me confidence that the results we’ve seen thus far will continue. |

No swinging for the fences here, just solid investing which is something C2 should do more of. Great communication with dependable picks both long and short so feel secure when the market sells off. The returns speak for themselves. Good job, keep it up |

I am trading this strategy for 2 weeks. The trader has good experience. He knows how to manage risks and take the high probability trades. So far, I am impressed by his performance. |

This system appears to be an intra-day mean reversion system. Entry points don't appear to be placed at any major support or resistance levels, so I assume they are mathematically determined ala Bollinger, or RSI, etc. The enemy of this system type would be a trend day, which have been occurring frequently as of late, hence the current drawdown. I suspect it's way to soon to predict long term performance since the system has only been around for a few months. The system developer does not seem to be willing to supply any backtest results nor appear to be overly communicative. Most decent systems with an edge will converge on a yearly profit percentage of roughly twice the max yearly drawdown, so until a solid track record is laid down it's wise to proceed with caution and not be overly leveraged. On the plus side, there always appear to be reasonable stops in place and no hint of martingale pyramiding shena***ns. |

Slightly less than 1 month into Mr Money Tree subscription, I am at breakeven with a 50% win rate and 1.2:1 profit factor. While the full history of this model is better, it has not done so well in the Trump rally with several "no trade" days which was not typical of this model. This model seems to work better in flat moderate volatility markets and not so well in rising but low volatility markets since the long or short limits are not met. Developer does keep losses to a minimum and always has limits and stops. |

So far, so good. Developer has done everything he advertised he would do. Conservative trader, uses stops, doesn't carry positions to the next day, and has good communication with participants. He had a bad couple of days, but that is to be expected. I will write another review in the future once I have more experience with the system. |
