Reviews of Bender's S&P Emini crossover

Bender's S&P Emini crossover

Craig has had some good runs but unfortunately he seems to trade with an ego problem (e.g. never admit he is wrong). Winning trades are cut short quickly, losers are allowed to go on and on. In his latest $20,000+ drawdown trade he violated many of the principles stated in his system description, showed a huge lack of discpline. Look at the history of this system and decide for yourself if you can tolerate his style of trading.

I subscribed to this system for a month and have to say I also was very disappointed. The money management was ATROCIOUS....he would make a point but quadruple down when he was down 7 points...definatley not my style of risk/reward. His general sense of market is good, but like i said..look at his drawdowns and losses and look at winner and you be the judge. I will agree, Craig is great at emailing subscribers and letting them know he is still alive and communicates with all, but i cant stomach the lossess personally . Also..a lot of his big winners occur in the evening...disregard those and you have a lot of pain and very little gain...also see the Forum on his system and comments there.

Craig still is the hardest working vendor on C2 and continues to manage multiple legs diligently, but the best intentions can only go so far - the initial accuracy of the signals is poor and losses are not managed well, as the system is discretionary, with no stops, and Craig's "just average up/down and close your eyes tight and pray" method will blow up every once in a while, so be ready for that. Also, the system SAYS that it gets out EOD, but today it held into the overnight to escape a loss. Not good. Expect a net return of around 5%-10% a month of account size, all things considered, including a 20% blowup every so often.

Craig has consistently proven that he will make profits with his system, getting in and out of positions with exceptional precision. If he can keep drawdowns to a minimum as stated, this will be a long term keeper. Well worth the fee as his is likely the best futures system on C2. Let's keep those winners coming!

Initial manually traded with results positive. The system entries are realistic and exits timely for short quick trades with limited loss risk. Sometimes slight delay has permitted an even better entry point, but the markets have not been trending strongly since I have tried the system. Consistency will be the key.
