Current Open Positions

* From November 2007 monthly performance figures are from a RTT limited partnership fund account. 2008 performance for this account was 5.7 % (vs S&P -38%), net of all fees. For an Excel spread sheet of monthly data of my actual trading results for the past 5 years, please email us.

For those with smaller accounts and who are more aggressive, check the Real Time Track Record link and see actual brokerage statements of how, using my system in 2003 (a very good year for stocks) I took $14,000 to $33,135, a gain of 137%.

The "secret" besides good stock picks, is money management - controlling risk and downside!!

8/13/08 You know Russ, if it weren't for the trading philosophy you engrained in me there is no doubt that I'd be down a TON of money this year. Very happy to be mildly up and not down 10-20-25% like everyone else. I really appreciate the work you do especially during these choppy difficult times. Toby (posted on our private forum)

I've been burned trying to simply buy low and sell high for some time. A friend who is a hedge fund compliance officer recommended you highly and sent me to your site. After reading through it I think I understand that you are not trying to buy low and sell high in the conventional sense, but instead predicting potential breakouts and then using tools to position yourself to get in at the beginning of a breakout, if it happens, while aggressively mitigating your risk. Frankly, its been a epiphany. Tobin

"It is not always about making money, but rather about not losing it, so that when others are digging out of a hole we are making new highs in our accounts. That makes a huge difference in performance at the end of the year and over time. " (no date, always applicable) Russ (RTT)

It sure feels good to be sitting in cash while the market took a big dive. Your methodology and conservatism sure paid off. This is the second storm I have weathered successfully with you. Thanks. Barry. The old adage goes "Those who know don't say, and those who say don't know." You're one of the exceptions. I wanted you to know that I appreciate the generous haring of your knowledge and experience on your site. Be well. Jeff

First, let me thank you for the service and advice you’ve been providing (and I’m looking forward to your new Forum). This recent downturn/correction (whatever it is) would have, in times past, caught me as a ‘bagger’. Now, with your guidance, I am almost all in cash with most of my gains this year protected. Mark I am really enjoying being a member of your group. I am learning a lot -- while making money. This is great! Regards, Barry

Must say I've enjoyed trading your "signals" while trying to learn and come up with a few on my own. I feel like I'm learning something I will be using the rest of my life. Thanks! Ric I have been trying to trade stocks for quite a while, but not very successfully. I have never followed a trading system like yours. I am very pleased with my success here. Don

Now I just need your mentoring as I've decided to margin my account pretty soon and trade for a living!!! LOL Just kidding. MMMmmm, may be not! LOL Grazie amico mio e Buona notte. Corrado

Just wanted to send a quick note about how much my wife and I appreciate your service. We tried the trial a few weeks ago and now we are monthly. We started a Scottrade account with $29 K now it's up to $46 K. Small stuff for you, but we have just started trading. There is no way we would have done as well alone. We had tried various newsletters but were disappointed. Robert & Carol

Commentary - August 21, 2005

For over 2 years, I have been posting for free my daily commentary (less trade signals, changes in stops and specific information about stocks the system has had buy signals elected.)

This commentary had been followed closely by an increasingly large following, as it was very insightful, and probably more importantly, has called every major turn and most minor ones in the markets as well as many in crude oil. (If you wish to take any significant turning point of the Naz off a chart, email me the date and I will email you back my archived daily commentary for the 5 days prior to, and after, the turning point.)

This daily commentary had become an important resource on sentiment and the markets' direction, was used, quoted and became much more valuable to many than the system buy/sell signals. I posted it for free for over 2 years, but it has become increasingly clear that it was not fair to paying subscribers to continue. Now it is only available to paid subscribers.

I will continue to post the current open positions table each day to show prospective subscribers every trade, which will allow them to track performance to prove for themselves the value of subscribing.

I do NOT recommend that you piggy back on top of these trades, if for no other reason that the best ones may be overextended and the worst ones may not be working and will fail. Also, you do not have he stop loss or trailing stops and thus do not have know my risk in a trade, nor know at what price I plan to take profits.

Good trading,

Russ

The System's Portfolio will show all open positions and their entry price. I do not run a hypothetical profit and loss on all closed positions, as many of these stocks I may not have actually bought and sold. I will not insult your intelligence with hypothetical results.

It is important to realize that the system I use generates many trading signals, and the composite of all open positions (the System Composite ) from the system can vary from just a few stocks to as many as 40, depending on market conditions. You will see the system’s actual buy and sell prices when you become a paid subscriber. What you will only see here is what the system’s price was to buy the stocks, on some previous trading day. Many buy signals cannot be taken in my real time accounts because often I am fully invested and, therefore, there is not enough money in my accounts to buy all the stocks from the system. (Read Building a Trading Model, for a full explanation of how I trade.) As a paid subscriber if you choose to use the system’s buy signals, you will also find yourself in the same position. Thus, your account will not necessarily exactly mirror my performance, or the total performance of the System Composite Portfolio. This will, at times, be to your advantage or disadvantage, depending on what stocks you decide to buy and the number of shares. I too outperform or under perform the System Composite Portfolio at various times. One more note, if the buy signal on XYZ is 6.50 and I actually buy it and get filled at 6.52, the actual fill price of 6.52 (and not the 6.50 buy stop) will be used in the System Composite portfolio. If I did not actually buy the stock, then the stop price is used in the System Composite Portfolio.

The following paragraph is part of the Disclaimer. It is very important that you read the entire disclaimer!

Subscriber’s who choose to trade the system’s posted signals should realize that there is a potential conflict of interest in that Russell Mascieri may also be trying to execute trades at prices that are advantageous to his account. There is a direct conflict of interest in double signals for the same stock. This occurs when the system gives a second buy signal on a stock and Russell Mascieri already owns the stock in one or more of his accounts from the first (earlier) buy signal. When the system gives another buy signal for the same stock at some subsequent later date, Russell Mascieri is placed in a direct conflict of interest in posting the new buy signal for a stock he already owns. This can have the effect of increasing the price of the stock and thus directly increasing the value of his position in the stock.
