Nasdaq 100 Performance Results

All Information within this page and performance numbers are calculated using the Nasdaq 100 Index. The signals that are produced by our model and the corresponding performance of these signals are based on the current market and economic conditions at the time of the issued signal. The hypothetical and actual signal performance may differ from future performance. The model may be adjusted to the current market and economic conditions at any time, and can continue to be changed until desired results are achieved. The performance of your individual investments may vary from ours. Please review our performance numbers and visit our whole website to get a better understanding of how our subscription service may be able to help you take control of your investment returns.

The performance data of Tacticaltradingsignal.com as shown below from 1997 to 2008 has been based on the Nasdaq 100 Index, and our benchmark calculations do not include commission costs, margin costs and taxes. Historical performance of Tacticaltradingsignal.com is hypothetical prior to the signal commencing on 4/30/1997. Performance after 4/30/1997 reflects signals, but does not reflect actual accounts. If you would like to see how other indices or funds would have done, just use our trade dates below to calculate the performance. For Cash positions, investment proceeds are kept in cash during periods where the signal is Sell, therefore returning 0% during that time (actual cumulative returns would be greater using a money market fund instead of cash). Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. See Assumptions & Limitations

Performance data quoted above is historical. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted. The principal value and investment return of an investment will fluctuate so that your shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. You cannot invest directly in an index. Returns are for illustrative purposes only.

The performance data above has been based on the Nasdaq 100 Index and it is our benchmark that we used to measure our model performance. The closing prices of the indices on the given dates above are used in calculating these performance numbers. The Benchmark Returns show how the indices have performed since the current signal was issued. The performance of the individual strategies are based on the Benchmark Returns and leveraged strategies are twice the performance of the Benchmark Returns. If the current position is Bearish, then the performance of the Short strategies will be the inverse of the Benchmark Returns. During a Bearish signal the Long strategies will have 0% performance due to the assumption that the investment is in cash earning no return. Our Benchmark calculations do not include commission costs, margin costs and taxes. Hypotheticalmodel performance returns for the Nasdaq 100 Index do not reflect reinvestment of dividends or other earnings.

 

Assumptions & Limitations: Our benchmark calculations do not include commission costs, margin costs and taxes. Since numerous investment vehicles exist to track the performance of the indices, all performance results we publish here are hypothetical and are calculated using the respective indices themselves as the investment. Calculations assume all trades are placed at market close, the day of a signal change. All datesabove are actual signal dates. Indexes are unmanaged, do not incur management fees, costs and expenses, and cannot be invested in directly. Hypotheticalmodel performance returns assume no reinvestment of any dividends or distributions that may have been paid with respect to the underlying fund. Performance results include a trailing stop on position basis rule of 3%-15%. Trailing stops are subject to change as our market volatility changes in the future.
