| How to use the Swing Timing Alert |
Market timing has long been one of the greatest secrets to investment success. In all markets, in all times. All investments have their cycles -- periods when prices rise and periods when they fall. The idea is to buy before prices rise and sell before they fall. Opportunities abound. But only if you buy and sell at the right time.
This is where we come in . . . the Swing Timing Alert (STA) specializes in timing as the market swings from one extreme to another. It tells you exactly when to buy and when to sell depending upon prevailing market conditions. The Swing Timing Alert is designed to make money during both bull and bear markets.
You can use STA to time all US index funds, market indices or index ETFs. The Swing Timing Alert is clear, concise and easy to use. Yet, it generates enormous profits when followed correctly and with proper discipline.
The Swing Timing Alert, is e-mailed whenever a new buy or sell signal is generated. The new issue is also posted on the website as a PDF file.
The Swing Timing Alert features 3 model portfolios :
- Conservative
- Moderate
- Aggressive
All 3 model portfolios use different swing timing systems. The Conservative portfolio looks at longer-term market swings, the Moderate portfolio views intermediate-term swings while the Aggressive portfolio changes signals based on short-term swings.
The Conservative portfolio buys an index ETF on a BUY signal and exits to a money-market fund (cash) on a SELL signal. It is designed to make money during bull markets and protect capital by remaining in the safety of cash during bear markets.
The Moderate portfolio buys an index ETF on a BUY signal and an inverse index ETF on a SELL signal. It is designed to make money in both up and down markets.
The Aggressive portfolio buys a 2X enhanced index ETF on a BUY signal and a 2X inverse enhanced index ETF on a SELL signal. It is also designed to make money in both up and down markets but with a beta of 2 so that it always moves twice as fast as the underlying index.
Each issue of the Swing Timing Alert will also show you the Best ETFs and Best Stocks under current market conditions. No exits are given for these and you should use a 15% trailing stop to exit these ETFs and stocks.
The Swing Timing Alert is always on a buy or a sell signal. When it is on a BUY signal, we buy the Ultra QQQ ProShares exchange traded fund (symbol QLD). This is an index ETF tied to the Nasdaq 100 index. It has a beta of approximately +2, meaning it moves twice as fast as the Nasdaq 100 index, both up and down. Because this fund has a positive beta, it moves in tandem with the Nasdaq 100 index, gaining in value when the market goes up and losing in value when the market goes down.
When the STA system goes to a SELL signal, you simply sell QLD and buy the UltraShort QQQ ProShares exchange traded fund (symbol QID). This is a reverse index ETF tied to the Nasdaq 100 index with a beta of approximately -2 (minus two), meaning it moves twice as fast as and inversely with the Nasdaq 100 index. Thus, the fund gains in value when the Nasdaq 100 index is falling.
Obviously, we want to be invested in QLD when the stock market is rising and in a money market fund (CASH) or QID when the stock market is falling. The signals generated by the Swing Timing Alert, though far from perfect, will help you accomplish this goal.
The Swing Timing Alert concept is simple. First identify the trend of the market – whether it is up or down. Then invest your money in the appropriate ETF – either QLD if the trend is up or QID if the trend is down. When the trend changes from up to down, or vice-versa, simply switch from one ETF to another.
Best of all, you can buy and sell these ETFs at any discount broker and pay minimal commissions. If you already have a brokerage account, you are all set to trade these ETFs. Otherwise, just open an account at any online discount broker like TD Ameritrade (www.tdameritrade.com), Scottrade (www.scottrade.com) or Fidelity (www.fidelity.com), etc.
With the Swing Timing Alert, you can get started at any time. You don’t have to worry about the market being too high to buy or too low. This highly profitable timing service will notify you of any changes instantly. The model portfolios consist of index ETFs, which can be easily bought or sold through any broker.
Please remember ... patience and discipline are the two most important cornerstones of successful investing. Don't expect miracles or think you'll get rich overnight. Also, don't let the day to day market volatility and ups and downs bother you. That is all part of investing in the stock market. Focus on the longer-term. Look at the bigger picture. Think where you want to be 3, 5 or 10 years from now.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q. When is the Swing Timing Alert (STA) published?
A. STA is published and distributed via e-mail and our website www.swingtiming.com, whenever a new buy or sell signal is generated by our computerized trading system. Whenever there is a signal change (from buy or sell or sell to buy), the STA will arrive in your inbox by 6:30 a.m. EST telling you exactly what action you need to take.
Q. I just signed up for the Swing Timing Alert. Am I too late for the signal? What do I do?
A. You have two options. Either wait for a fresh signal to initiate your trading or jump in right away in the direction of the current trade. There is a third option which is nice compromise between the two. Use half of your investible capital to invest in the present ongoing trade. Jump in with both feet only when a new signal is transmitted.
Q. How do I use the Best ETFs and Stocks?
A. Instead of buying an enhanced index ETF tied to a broadly diversified index like the NDX, you can elect to buy the Best ETFs which are tield to narrow sector indices. These are higher-risk ETFs which can provide a big reward within a very short time. Similarly you can also use the Best Stocks which can also provide a huge reward within a very short time, but can also be volatile. No exits are given for these and you should determine your own exit points or use a 15% trailing stops for these positions.
Q. Which broker do you recommend for buying and selling these ETFs?
A. If you already have a brokerage account just use them to buy & sell these ETFs. Otherwise, just open an account at any online discount broker like TD Ameritrade (www.tdameritrade.com), Scottrade (www.scottrade.com) or Fidelity (www.fidelity.com), etc. Just perform a search for “best online discount broker” on Google.
Q. How does Swing Trading Alert determine its BUY and SELL signals?
A. After years of research and testing, we have created a timing system that removes all the guesswork, speculation, and human emotion … no more relying on “gut feelings” or second-guessing as the market swings from bull to bear and back. The Swing Timing Alert uses an advanced non-linear mathematical model that observes the underlying trend to trigger a buy or sell signal. All 3 model portfolios use different swing timing systems. The Conservative portfolio looks at longer-term market swings, the Moderate portfolio views intermediate-term swings while the Aggressive portfolio changes signals based on short-term swings.
Q. The Dow was down 250 points yesterday. Why is your system still on a BUY signal?
A. One day of market activity, especially in a narrow index like the Dow Jones Industrial Average, does not make a trend. We are not day-traders. Instead we look at trends that last at least a few weeks. That way you stay on the right side of the market trend virtually all the time and make money with minimal switches between the bull and bear funds.
Q. The Dow was up 250 points yesterday. Why is your system still on a SELL signal?
A. Same as answer to previous question above.
