1. How Does SafeMoneyMetrics™ (SMM) Optimize the Positive Potential of Managed Futures?
SafeMoneyMetrics™ reveals risk that normally remains hidden. Concealed risk can cause ill-fated loss. When the cause of ill-fated loss is eliminated, physical loss cease to exist.
First read the Value Offered page, it quantifies how financial loss is unknowingly caused by erroneous analytical applications. SafeMoneyMetrics™ can reduce and at times prevent ill-fated loss several ways. Examples are:
a) An advisor trades 28 markets, loses money in 20 yet their composite returns "look good". Another advisor produces the exact results, however they trade four markets and lose money in one. The second advisor probably has less capital waste built into the strategy.
b) Two advisors each have $1M account minimums. They both accept minimum funding of 25% or $250,000. Advisor one uses 10% of the $1M as trading margin, Advisor two uses 15%. They both produce equal returns however Advisor one bills a management fee on the entire $1M account size, and Advisor two has no management fee.
c) Two advisors have the same required account size, and funding levels. By tracking a Net and Funding Level Ratio, SafeMoneyMetrics™ can evaluate risk/return relative to leverage used under variable market conditions. Link to a demo CTA-Report. Read explanations under the charts and tables.
SafeMoneyMetrics™ Client Risk Management Services analyzes the "return process, rather than the return" and integrates a semi-automatic process of creating lower risk decisions. Less risk does NOT necessarily mean choosing an advisor with no management fee.
If private label SafeMoneyMetrics™ services are selected, we can track profitability and correlation of each market traded within a strategy over specified time frames, SafeMoneyMetrics™ reveals early warning of strategy imbalances and gives you time to reallocate assets before a large draw down alleviates you of hard earned profits!
The complete value of SafeMoneyMetrics™ needs to be understood
In conclusion, SafeMoneyMetrics™ removes all superfluous information from the environment, so that vital elements causing returns can prudently be evaluated. Nobody can predict future returns. Too much can happen. Too much will always remain unsaid and unknown. SafeMoneyMetrics™ allows you to comfortably live in the unknown because of it's ability to "perceive" strategy imbalances that precede composite losses. It gives you time to take prudent action.
2.What are My Investment Risks Without SafeMoneyMetrics™ ?
To respectfully answer this question, you and I need to be like minded when defining risk. There are multiple risks to consider. A short and incomplete list is: a) People risk - you and other people. This one primary risk will increase or decrease the derivative risks, such as: b) Market and investment risk: c) Risk of making poor choices based on erroneous beliefs rather than facts: d) Allowing incomplete and misleading information perpetuated by mainstream thinking to permeate your mental environment: d) Capital risk is the scorecard. If all of the above are prudently managed our capital scorecard is profitable.
Nothing else is possible!
SafeMoneyMetrics™ combined with Alternative Thinking maximizes damage control caused by risks defined above.
Alternative Thinking is a risk management strategy that brings attention to erroneous, conflicted beliefs and thoughts that cause self inflicted loss. If we are internally in proper order, our proper world order follows!
You can learn more about Alternative Thinking by reviewing the benefits of Profit and Peace of Mind in Managed Futures, one of four investment guides currently available.
