Frequently Asked Questions
There are many trading services on the Internet. Some provide you with a weekly newsletter
telling you what you should buy or sell and at what price, leaving you with having to make
no decision (and often no money) at all. Some just sell books, some just advice,
some...well...something else. So you are going to have questions that need answering. I
want you to be able to make an informed decision. So I put this FAQ page together in the
hopes of answering questions you may have.
A. DTDs and WTDs are the dates listed on our weekly posted FDate Report. These FDate turn dates are generated using our suite of proprietary applications (called the FDate Suite of Applications) that apply Geometric Mathematics and Cycle Extraction Protocols to historical price data in order to extrapolate into the near future the dates when the market is most likely to reverse (change direction). The DTDs are for the DAILY time frame charts and the WTDs for the WEEKLY time frame charts.
A. From the time FDates burst onto the trading scene back in 1997 as offered here by this membership, we've seen the FDates averaging an accuracy of 81%+ for a swing top or bottom to confirm within +/- 1 price bar. This percentage is for outright swing tops and bottoms (major/minor trend changes). If you include the PAUSE formations that also provide us with excellent trade setups and are also forecasted by FDates, this accuracy rate jumps well into the 90+ percentile The accuracy rate may fluctuate slightly from one market to the next and from one period in time to the next. These are averages as a whole (all the markets on the report).
A. Sometimes, although generally we simply watch the direction price is going as it arrives at the turn date in order to expect the market to then change direction. The report does not specify whether a future date will be a top or bottom and has been found to be unnecessary.
A.Access to our FDates Market Forecasting membership site. Within this site, you gain access to our weekly FDate Report, updated weekly. The FDate Report contains both weekly and daily turn dates for the markets we cover. You have access to our training videos and tutorials, our Cycle Envelope charts, and my market forecasts. If you are a Premium Member, you will also have use of our special Previsions Charting application that provides powerful tools to use along with the turn dates.
A.You do not need to purchase any additional items. Access to price charts is highly recommended.
A. A list of the markets currently covered can be found by clicking here.
A.Only those listed here are currently offered on the report. What some members have done is to purchase a license to the FDates Suite of Applcations software program(s) for personal use. These are the applications used to generate the FDates for the weekly report. However, these applications are not for sale to the public and only Premium Members with several months of membership time may inquire about the possibility of licensing for personal use and the fee involved.
A.This has been a bit of frustration for us for many years. Without the basic training of what to look for on a price chart in relation to FDates, looking at older reports is meaningless. This is why we DO NOT provide older reports by request. Instead, we have made available the Introductory (4-Report) Membership available with a 14-day money back guarantee. This way, you get access to the training materials as well as 4-Reports (one per week) to help you evaluate the membership.
A.This service is not about producing trade alerts with specific buy and sell calls. This service is about providing the member-trader with highly accurate market turn dates so that important tops and bottoms can be anticipated and potentially traded. Members must make their own trading decisions. We simply provide you with the information you need to pinpoint market moves as early as possible for low-risk and high-profit opportunities.
A.We do not provide specific trading recommendations. This is an information based membership. Members trade what they want, when they want. We provide the informational tools to help our members pinpoint market bottoms and tops. There are no statements, hypothetical or otherwise that would be relevant.
A. YES WE DO! We offer an INTRODUCTORY 4-REPORT plan (First-time members only!) at a very low introductory rate. We guarantee that if you do not feel that FDates are right for you within the first 14-days, simply contact us and ask for a complete refund. All we ask is that you take full advantage of our training materials and ask questions if you do not understand something. If still not satisfied, simply email us and request a full refund within the first 14-days. This guarantee is only valid with the INTRODUCTORY (4-Reports) MEMBERSHIP plan.
A. At the top of this page you will see a link that says SERVICES & PRODUCTS. That will take you to the Membership Plans we currently have available. Hope to see you aboard!
A. The membership expires when you receive your final report. The 4-week Membership, for example, would mean that your membership is good for 4 FDate Reports. Premium and Paypal Memberships never expire unless you chose to cancel. The FDate Report is posted prior to the beginning of each trading week, usually on Friday or Saturday.
A.The programs used to generate the weekly FDate Report is called the FDate Suite of Applications. Ceppro and Prognos are simply names given to updated versions of the original FDates program, although the name has reverted back to FDates in the most recent version. These programs are not available for sale to the public and only in rare cases to Premium Members who request to purchase a license. Members are not required, nor do they need to use these applications as we do all the calculations in-house and publish the results each week on the FDate Report.
THE PREVISIONS CHARTING SOFTWARE
A.While you can use any charting software or charting service you like for trading FDates, we do offer a charting program to our PLATINUM and GOLD Premium members to use called Previsions Charting. This program was developed specifically for FDate traders. While it is not required to use this application for FDate trading, it does have some pretty powerful analytical tools to help you make better timing decisions.
A. To name a few, it has a special OB/OS tool (shades the overbought area on the chart in green, the oversold area in red, based on Gann), a Time/Price squaring tool, and a Seasonal Data Report tool. When you are expecting a market bottom or top based on a FDate, it helps to apply some of the tools found in Previsions Charting to further deduce the potential for a trade off the expected turn. In addition, you have have the current FDate turn dates displayed on the chart. While Previsions Charting will not calculate FDates itself, it can read the FDates file available by download from the membership site each week.
A. You will find a link for Software Registration-Key Request found on the navigation menus at the right side of some of the sites pages. Or you can simply click HERE to go directly to the Registration-Key Request form.
