How It Works

The complete process from signal to exit

This page explains exactly what happens when you receive a signal, what to do when you get stopped out, and how the entire process works from start to finish.

1Receive a Signal

Every day, we scan global markets (US, Korea, Japan, Taiwan) for high-probability setups. When we find one that meets our criteria, we send you a signal that includes:

  • Stock ticker and market
  • Entry price or entry zone
  • Stop loss price
  • Position sizing guidance (how much to risk)
  • Setup type (Surf trade or Turf trade — explained in the Strategy page)

2Enter the Trade

When you receive a signal:

  1. Check the entry price — enter at or near the suggested price
  2. Set your stop loss immediately — this is non-negotiable
  3. Use the position sizing guide — this tells you how many shares to buy based on your account size

Important: Do not enter a trade without a stop loss in place. The moment you open a position is the most dangerous time (like a plane taking off). Your stop protects you from catastrophic losses.

3What Happens After You Enter

Scenario A: You Get Stopped Out

This is the most common outcome. Expect to be stopped out 60-80% of the time.

  • Do nothing. Accept the small loss.
  • Do NOT re-enter immediately.
  • Wait for the next signal.

Each loss is small (0.3-0.5% of account). These are "paper cuts" — the cost of doing business.

Scenario B: Stock Moves in Your Favor

  • Hold and wait.
  • We will send you a signal when it's time to take profits.
  • We will remind you to move your stop loss up to protect your gains.
  • Do not get greedy. Follow the process.

4Selling Into Strength (Taking Profits)

When a stock has a strong run (typically 3-5 days after entry), we send a signal to:

  1. Sell 1/3 of your position — lock in some profits
  2. Move your stop loss up — now your remaining position is risk-free or in profit
  3. Hold the remaining 2/3 — let it ride for a potential home run

The final exit of your remaining position is more discretionary. We will guide you, but you have some flexibility on when to close the rest.

5Repeat

That's the entire cycle:

1. Receive signal2. Enter with stop3. Get stopped out OR hold4. Take partial profits5. Wait for next signal

What to Expect: The Reality

Win Rate: 20-40%

Yes, you read that correctly. You will lose more trades than you win.Out of 5 trades, expect 3-4 to be stopped out and 1-2 to be winners.

60-80%
Stopped out
-0.3% to -0.5%
20-30%
Standard win
+2% to +5%
5-10%
Home run
+10% to +20%+

One home run can pay for 20-50 small losses. This is the power of asymmetric betting.
