The Online Investing AI Blog

In yesterday’s post on utilizing Trend Following to start your own personal hedge fund, we discussed that one of the allies of the hedge fund manager and one of the enemies of the self-directed investor is time.

A hedge fund manager has all day to watch the markets and conduct research. Most self-directed traders don’t have that luxury. They have a job–or two–that keeps them from intensive trading activities. And, after staring at a computer screen all day, the last thing they want to do is to examine charts and graphs.

Recent technology is changing this. Independent investors and traders can use a complete menu of Automated Trading systems to augment, or completely take over, their trading activities.

Just an update: I was checking on what is basically our beta investment system on Collective 2. (You can go to that site and search for Online Investing AI… it should come up.)

We had some spectacular gains our first month, a low second month, and a current recovery this month. All told, this is exactly what we expected for our first system. Here are some key successes for us–and for our clients:

* AI Learning. The system seems to be “learning” the market. Our trades are improving.

* Learning. We can make this system better and we can use what we learn to make other systems better.

* Expanding. We believe we can expand the possibilities of using advanced technology to other forms of investments (like forex, commodities, options, etc.) and strategies (intraday, long-term, short-term, etc.) and make our clients rich.

* Innovating. We can add new ideas to make exponential gains possible.

So, there’s a lot to look forward to. One other thing. It’s important not just to compare the naked returns of the system, but to look at these results in comparison to the rest of the market. The market has sunk 20 percent or so, with much of that drop coming in the last couple months. Our worst month was only off 3 percent. In comparison, then, the Online AI returns are much better.
