.....The Index portfolio trades the NASDAQ
100 exchange traded fund - QQQQ - either long or short based
on the trade advisory of our AlphaKing Trading indicator,
which is shown and updated in our daily summary. The strategy
aims to be long the NASDAQ 100 index (QQQQ) during bull-runs,
and short the NASDAQ 100 index (QQQQ) through the bear
corrective phases, with 401K invertors and those electing a
more conservative approach moving into a money market fund
during the sell periods. This Index approach is perfect as a
well-diversified stand alone trading strategy for those
traders looking for stock market exposure without the hassle
of buying and tracking multiple stock positions, as well as
the 401K investor looking to diversify the risks associated
with the buy/hold/hope approach commonly used in such
retirement accounts. The average number of trades per year is
3.1 since 1973, though any one year can be significantly
higher.
The Alpha King GrQ/4 ETF
portfolio trades either long or short based on the trade
advisory of the AlphaKing Trading indicator, with current and
new positions shown and updated each day after the stock
market has closed. While our research shows that shorting
stocks and ETFs when the stock market is in bear-corrective-mode leads
to higher profits overall, our research also shows these gains
are much more difficult to achieve than trading long-only and
moving into a money market fund during these sell periods.
Only those traders and investors who understand and accept the
added volatility and risk should consider trading stocks
short. We believe most investors should be trading long only,
though how you use the information we provide is entirely up
to you.
The Alpha King GrQ/8 Hedge Fund

The Alpha King GrQ/25 Small
Cap portfolio is a larger, more diversified version
of the GrQ/8 Hedge Fund portfolio that trades the small
capitalized stocks meeting the rigorous AlphaKing fundamental
and technical quantitative screening process. This portfolio
trades small cap stocks when in buy mode, and shorts the market using inverse Index ETFs when in sell mode.
Our research shows that this beta
leveraged product is one of the optimal ways to take full
advantage of the Alpha King screening and timing system during
bull markets and intermediate term advances. GrQ/25 was
entered into the investment competition run by
Marketocracy.com - who are looking to find the best investors
and investment strategies in the world - with the portfolio
achieving a return of 206% since mid-2001 through to
3/29/2006** - without margin -
turning $10,000 into $30,600, during one of the worst bear
markets in history! - with this strategy routinely placing
near the top of Marketocracy's longer term, 3, 4, and 5 year
rankings, out of 70,000 competing strategies. See performance
chart below.
401K Investors
should use the long only version of the Index portfolio to time entry and exit of positions within their retirement accounts, moving into an Index mutual fund when the AlphaKing Trading indicator turns positive, and into a money market fund when the AK Trading indicator flips into sell mode......

.....It is rare for competing
financial websites to provide trackable performance profiles
to help gauge what indicators, signals, and opinions a trader
or investor should be following. AlphaKing strongly believes
in results driving all investment decisions, and returns for
the stocks in our portfolios are shown and updated every day,
with profitable positions highlighted in green, and
unprofitable ones highlighted in red.
In addition to the
current positions being updated daily, overall performance of
the portfolios is highlighted in the 'Performance' section
located directly beneath the 'Trade' summary box. These
performance stats highlight the portfolio returns including
all current open positions, as well as all closed trades for
the current trading year, as well as past results.
We also show a
performance chart of the GrQ/25 small cap portfolio, which is
tracked and provided by Marketocracy.com. We believe that
chart speaks for itself.
One potential drawback to active trading of larger
portfolios is the costs associated with buying and selling
larger numbers of stocks. To counter this problem we have
partnered with the on-line stock broker, FolioFn, so that all
trades in the AlphaKing portfolios can be executed for a total
commission cost of $290 per year. That is a substantial saving
over traditional discount brokers, saving as much as $1,400
per year (with $10.95 commission charge trading the GrQ/25
portfolio 3 times per year.) Click on the link provided to
visit FolioFn to learn more.....
