Step 1:  Choose a Trading Portfolio

• Do It Yourself: Review the available list of Trading Strategies for information on system developers and historical performance. Once you have decided on the strategy you want to use, go on to Step 2.
• Broker-Assisted: An industry professional can advise you on the selection process. He or she can help you tailor your portfolio of strategies to best suit your investment needs.  Click here to ask for the assistance of one of our licensed representatives.

Step 2:  Lease a Portfolio

Step 3:  Execution and Monitoring

Execution: Trading Systems reside on Strategy Runner servers in the Clearing Firm’s data center. Once you have leased an auto- execution system, that system will be enabled on your SR Console residing on your desktop. But that does NOT mean it is activated for execution. You choose when to activate or de-activate each strategy and it can be done at any time. Since there is no retransmission of trading signals from outside of the Clearing Firm’s data center, delays and interruptions are virtually eliminated.

Monitoring: Your SR Console enables you to track results and control your portfolio in real-time. You can follow the trading activity of each strategy and review trading history at any time. Your Clearing Firm also provides you with an online account summary of all relevant information on your account. If you are working with a representative, he can also help you track each system’s activity and how each system is performing within your portfolio.

Step 4:  Control & Money Management

• Self-Directed Trading: daily profit and loss can be controlled automatically by specifying money management rules on Strategy Runner Pro.
• Broker-Assisted Trading: ask your broker about value added services that he can provide you.
• Transparency: the Strategy Runner Pro platform allows clients to monitor their systems' performance in real-time. In addition, all portfolio paper trading results are published throughout the trading session on paper Live Trading providing tick-by-tick transparency of the daily performance.
• Reallocation: based on real-time information, investors can choose to reallocate their portfolio using systems from various research groups.
