| How to use the ETF Global Investor |
Timing the global markets and its various industry sectors 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 prices fall.
Opportunities abound. But only if you buy and sell at the right time. This is where we come in ... the ETF Global Investor specializes in finding the best ETF’s from around the world. It will tell you exactly when to buy and when to sell.
You can use ETF Global Investor for investing in various international markets and industry sectors. The ETF Global Investor will tell you exactly in which fund to put your investment dollars. Since ETF’s trade just like stocks, you can make these trades in any brokerage account. An online discount broker will work best because of their low commission rates.
The ETF Global Investor is clear, concise and easy to use. Yet it generates enormous profits when followed correctly and with proper discipline. Average annualized return for the last 4 years exceeded 40% with NO margin or short-selling.
The ETF Global Investor will be e-mailed to you every Monday morning before 6:30 AM eastern time. It will also be available as a PDF file on our website at www.ETFglobalinvestor.com. You must have Adobe Acrobat Reader installed on your computer to read PDF files. This can be downloaded free from www.adobe.com.
The different portfolios featured in ETF Global Investor are as follows:
| 1. | UNO: | holds only one ETF at a time |
| 2. | DUO: | holds two ETF’s at a time |
| 3. | TRIO: | holds three ETF’s at a time |
| 4. | QUAD: | holds four ETF’s at a time |
| 5. | PENTA: | holds five ETF’s at a time |
| 6. | OCTA: | holds eight ETF’s at a time |
| 7. | DECA: | hold ten ETF’s at a time |
The single ETF portfolio will be highly concentrated with the highest reward and also the highest risk. The ten ETF portfolio, on the hand, will be most diversified with the lowest reward and consequently the lowest risk.
Ideally, you should pick one portfolio that matches with your personal requirements of risk versus rewards. For a moderate risk/reward profile, the QUAD or PENTA will work best.
Please be aware that portfolios with large number of ETF’s (like OCTA and DECA), though highly diversified and consequently less risky, will require slightly more frequent trading than those with less number of ETF’s.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q. When is the newsletter published?
A. The ETF Global Investor is published every Monday and distributed to subscribers via email and the password protected area on our website (www.ETFglobalinvestor.com) before 6:30 AM eastern time.
Q. I just signed up. Am I too late for the signal? What do I do?
A. You have two options. Either wait for a new Buy signal for an ETF to initiate your trading or jump in right away in the current trade. There is a third option which is nice compromise between the two. Use half of your investment capital to invest in the present ongoing trade. Invest fully only when a new fund is purchased in the model portfolio of your choice.
Q. Which broker do you recommend?
A. You can use any online or offline broker of your choice.
Q. How do you select ETF to invest in OR why are you buying or selling a certain ETF?
A. Every week, we screen all the available ETF’s trading on US exchanges and look for those that have potential for spectacular price increases. The ETF selection is done using a rigorous proprietary system based on cutting-edge computerized quantitative analysis. This system ranks the funds according to their short-term momentum and relative strength. We list these in every issue of the ETF Global Investor.
Q. A certain ETF is down 10%. Are you still recommending it?
A. Since this is a weekly trading system, we request you to please wait patiently for your weekly update to see whether we are still recommending it.
Q. As a new subscriber, should I buy the ETF in the model portfolio, or should I wait till there is a new buy?
A. Either strategy is fine. The aggressive option is to go ahead and buy the fund in the model portfolio at its current price. This way you'll be fully invested instantly. Even though some of these funds may be up 20 or 30% since we bought them, it doesn't mean that they cannot go up another 30% or more from these levels. The more conservative option is to buy a fund when it is freshly added to the portfolio. This way, it may take you a few months to get fully invested.
Q. Why don't you have more explanations and analysis in the newsletter?
A. We believe that over-analyzing anything leads to paralysis and the investor fails to act on the opportunity at hand. Since all our recommendations are based on tested and proven computer models, more explanations are not relevant because they do not add to the bottom line. By giving you a 16-page newsletter full of words and graphs, we'll be wasting your precious time without making any difference in the investment performance.
Q. Why do you sometimes sell ETFs at a loss?
A. Nobody likes losses, but all ETF positions cannot be profitable. And there is nothing wrong with taking a small loss. All successful investors and traders take losses from time to time. If we perceive that a certain ETF is not behaving the way we expect it to, we'll not hesitate in selling and moving on to other more attractive ETF’s.
Q. How do I use the momentum ranking list?
A. If you don't wish to duplicate any of the published model portfolios, you can simply buy a few ETFs from the top of the ranking list. Sell them when they drop out of the top 50 or 75 or 100 (you can determine your own cutoff point) and then buy the top ranked ETF at that time. Use lower cutoffs (like 40 or 50) for more frequent trading and higher cutoffs (like 90 or 100) for less frequent trading.
Q. Do you send out intra-week sell signals or updates?
A. The ETF Global Investor uses a longer-term investment methodology using weekly data so that our subscribers do not have to indulge in unnecessary and wasteful trading. Since it’s a weekly investment system, there are no intra-week sell signals or updates.
Q. I expect the market to have a correction. Should I sell my ETF’s?
A. Consult your crystal ball first. Since nobody knows for sure when a correction is imminent, don't sell your funds based on what you hear on TV or read in the newspaper. Over the long-term you will be amply rewarded by following the model portfolios, using a strict method of discipline and patience.
Q. Can I call you with questions?
A. We are not in a position to give individualized investment advice. The purpose of this service is to tell you when to buy and when to sell ETF’s. The subscription price does not include telephone consultation. You should consult a financial planner for your specific needs. However, if you have a question about the service itself, please email it to us at support@ETFglobalinvestor.com and we will answer it promptly.
Q. Is there a minimum amount to invest?
A. You can start with $5000 or even less, but try to invest at least $1000 per ETF. For example, you'll need at least $3000 for investing in the TRIO portfolio and $5000 for the PENTA portfolio, etc.
Q. How many ETFs do you follow? Do you follow the Short and UltraShort ETFs as well?
A. We track all ETFs trading on US exchanges, more than 600 at last count. These include all inverse ETFs like SDS, SKF, QID, etc. The top ranked 100 ETFs are then published in every issue of the ETF Global Investor.
Q. Each weekly issue of ETF Global Investor arrives between Sunday night and pre-market open Monday morning. If a new buy or sell is recommended, when do you buy or sell? Are the returns based on opening price on the day of a signal?
A. For accounting purpose and for showing the gains or losses in the weekly newsletter, all buys and sells are assumed to have been made at the closing price of the first trading day, usually a Monday.
Q. I have a PENTA portfolio, so I have allocated 20% to each of the 5 recommended ETF's as you suggest. What is inevitably happening however is that over time, I no longer have a 20% allocation for each ETF. Because of differences in performance, some are now more than 20%, and some are less. Should I be concerned about this inevitable phenomenon? What if anything should I do to try to maintain an equal 20%/ETF allocation in my PENTA portfolio?
A. This is normal and there’s nothing to be concerned about. A few percentage points here and there does not really matter. When we sell and buy a new ETF, at that time you can rebalance, so that the newly purchased ETF is at roughly 20% allocation.
Q. In your service, do you ever consider and recommend inverse ETFs which go up when the associated sector or index goes down?
A. We track all inverse ETF's in our service as shown in the ETF momentum and relative strength rankings.
Q. Do you advocate that I use stop losses of at least 8% to minimize losses in a sharp market downturn?
A. No stop levels are used because our testing has revealed that the use of stops, while psychologically beneficial, does not improve the actual performance of these ETF portfolios. Therefore, we do not use specifically ask our subscribers to use stops. However, you are of course free to use the reasonable stops for your personal holdings but if you get stopped out, it is up to you to figure out how to get back in.
Q. Do you provide a strategy for a bear market, or a severe drop in the overall market?
A. During bear market either non-correlated commodity ETFs or inverse ETFs can be employed which move up when the market goes down.
Q. Do you ever recommend trailing stop losses to lock in profits in a sudden downturn?
A. After extensive testing, we have concluded that trailing stops simply create whipsaws and reduce performance for our particular investment model which is designed to automatically sell an ETF once its performance starts lagging. Therefore, we do not employ any kind of stops in our strategy.
Q. How often are switches made? How many in a year? Do you manage money? Do you have independent confirmation of your trading results?
A. We don't manage money and independent confirmation of our trading results can be obtained from TimerTrac.com. In a portfolio comprising of 5 ETF's, there are an average of 8 trades per year. For a larger portfolio comprising of 10 ETF's, there are an average of 15 trades per year. A buy & sell together constitutes one trade.
Q. It would appear that the portfolio consisting of one ETF (UNO portfolio) had a significantly better return with fewer trades that any of the other portfolios which had more than one ETF in the portfolio and traded more frequently. If that assumption is correct from the 01/01/2003 to 12/31/2007 period of time why would anyone complicate a simple system and invest in numerous ETF's and trade more frequently incurring additional commission expenses? Am I missing something?
A. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results and most people would be too nervous putting their entire portfolio in just one ETF. That's akin to putting all your eggs in one basket. So, for those who would like to hold a diversified portfolio of ETFs, we offer a number of choices. Some folks are comfortable holding just one fund while others find solace in diversifying their portfolio over a number of different funds.
Q. Can you recommend any Brokerage firm for trading these ETFs?
You can use any discount broker of your choice that suits your requirements. Some possibilities are listed below:
www.Fidelity.com
www.Scottrade.com
www.Ameritrade.com
