Key Trades Performance - Seven Days Ahead

Calculate your performance: Key Trades

Key Trades Performance 2006-10

This is a record of our Key Trade recommendations sent out by email with detailed technical and macro reasoning. The performance calculations assume notional trading positions whose size is adjusted so that the same proportion of trading capital is risked with every trade. Risk is judged to be the difference between the opening trade and the initial Stop Loss.

We believe these returns fairly represent the actual returns subscribers might reasonably expect to achieve trading our recommendations given their frequency and the liquidity of the markets. Returns on uninvested funds are not included so the actual returns would be materially higher.

To discover the performance you could have enjoyed each year using Key Trades, enter your trading capital and the proportion you are willing to risk on each trade.
