Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about getting started, trading, and our strategy
Getting Started
How do I access my dashboard?
After signing up, you'll receive login credentials. Your dashboard shows active signals, your trade history, and performance metrics.
How do I receive signals?
Signals are delivered through the dashboard. Check your dashboard regularly for new signals.
How many signals will I get per day?
This varies by market conditions. On active days, you may get 2-5 signals across different markets. On quiet days, there may be none. We only signal high-quality setups.
Trading
I got stopped out. What do I do now?
Nothing. Accept the small loss and wait for the next signal. Do not re-enter the same stock immediately. Do not try to 'make back' the loss.
Can I adjust the stop loss?
No. The stop loss is calculated based on the setup and is part of the strategy. Moving it further away breaks the risk math. If you want a wider stop, reduce your position size to keep dollar risk the same.
What if I miss the entry price?
If you're within 1-2% of the suggested entry, it's usually fine. If the stock has moved more than that, wait for the next signal. Don't chase.
Can I trade stocks that aren't in the signals?
You can, but we recommend following the signals first until you understand the system. If you trade independently, use the same risk rules (max 0.3% risk per trade, tight stops).
How long do I hold a winning position?
We will send you a signal when it's time to take partial profits (usually 3-5 days after entry for strong moves). The final exit is more discretionary and we'll guide you.
What if the market crashes?
We monitor the overall market trend. If conditions turn bearish, we may signal to exit all positions. The market trend model takes priority over individual stock setups.
Risk & Money Management
How much money do I need to start?
You can start with any amount, but the strategy works best with at least $5,000-10,000 to allow proper position sizing across different stock prices.
What's the maximum drawdown I should expect?
With proper position sizing (0.3% risk per trade), even a 10-trade losing streak would only cost about 3% of your account. This is by design.
Can I increase my risk per trade?
We don't recommend it. The 0.3% risk is calibrated for the strategy's win rate and payoff profile. Increasing risk doesn't increase your win rate — it just makes drawdowns more painful.
Should I use leverage?
No. The strategy is designed for cash accounts. Leverage amplifies both gains and losses and can lead to margin calls during normal pullbacks.
Strategy Questions
Why don't you diversify?
Diversification protects against big losses but also caps big gains. We prefer concentration with tight stops — one position at a time per market, with a stop that limits damage to 0.3% of your account.
Why buy stocks that are already up so much?
Momentum persists. Stocks up 5x-10x on the year have institutional backing, strong catalysts, and self-reinforcing trends. Our tight stops protect us if the momentum breaks.
How do you pick which markets to trade?
We scan US, Korea, Japan, and Taiwan daily. We trade wherever the best setups appear. Sector rotation and market strength guide our focus.
What's the difference between Surf and Turf trades?
Surf trades are pullbacks to moving averages in an existing uptrend. Turf trades are breakouts from consolidation when moving averages clump together. Both are valid — Turf trades tend to have wider stops but higher conviction.
