What is your problem, why you always go against the trend. The option flow can't be considered for future trades. |

Overall, the strategy is good, but the drawdowns also high, due to that profits are erasing fast, if the strategy owner think about it and implement the stoploss approach, this will be going to be best strategy for Futures, No doubt as per my analysis. Definitely I will return back after watching the strategy performance for few more months. Am not in loss after subscribing to this strategy. |

I subscribe to several C2 systems and this is the one I have the most confidence in. It is expensive, but well worth it. The strategy manager communicates well -- both in private messages and periodic subscriber announcements. Highly recommended. |

Uses higher Leverage than I am comfortable with. (Per statistics it is using average of over 10 times and max leverage over 30ish) |

I would rate -ve if there is an option. Please stay away from all RC trades. They are not a professional traders at all (they claim that they are). They always go against the trend thinking that they are the market drivers and burnt 70% of my capital. He comes back asks us to add some capital by telling that mistake that he did, it will not repeat. Just one or two days later, it repeats again. This shows his trading skills are poor than a novice trader. There is no stop-loss for any trade he takes. The successful trades are like $11, $50, $60.. may be a one in $$$ followed by a loss in $$$$, this one trade eats up all your again + capital. Waste of time, he is making fools that he is creating a second source of income for everyone but he is using our money to practice his trading skills. Better stay away! |

Trader is very responsive and knowledgeable. Communicates with subscribers often and gives updates on positions, profit targets and trade reasoning. Profitable trader. |

Trader does not use stop losses. This is inherently dangerous, much more with oil futures. He just hopes for the best. When inquired, he does not response. I would stay away clearly. |

SUBSCRIBE IF YOU WANT TO WATCH YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY VANISH QUICKLY. WHILE IT IS UNDERSTOOD THAT MARKET WILL ALWAYS NOT WORK AS PER ONE'S EXPECTATION, THIS STRATEGY HAS THE WORST MANAGEMENT, DOES NOT HAVE STOP-LOSS STRATEGY AND OR SENSE OF MARKET TREND. PROFITS ARE MINIMAL WHILE LOSSES ARE EXTREMELY HUGE. |

The manager is very careless with his trades. He has been making decisions based on his sentiments and not on charts or trends. He shorts futures on small accounts and doesn't bother closing it if the trade is not going in the right direction. I have had 2 instances when IBKR closed shorts in my account because of margin requirements because he let the trade go too long!!! Requirement was 30k to start but his bets required much bigger capital. I have chosen to walk away from this after seeing multiple bad trades for 2 months and loosing 13k of my hard earned money. Please don't blindly sign up with this strategy. This guys doesn't know what he is doing!!!! |

PLEASE DO NOT SUBSCRIBE!!!! HORRIBLE HORRIBLE MANAGEMENT. ALL HIS STRATEGIES ARE SUFFERING HEAVY LOSSES. Account is 50% negative in less than two months. His positive trades have very minor profits and negative trades have HUGE HUGE losses. All members are frustrated with his strategy over the last year in C2 and in the private telegram channel where he only shares trades with profits and hides the trades with losses. PLEASE DO NOT BE FOOLED BY HIS MESSAGES IN TELEGRAM CHANNEL. HE AND HIS TEAM KEEP TRICKING GULLIBLE SUBSCRIBERS TO JOIN. |

I personally believe this guy doesn't have a strategy, he was riding the wave, doing blind day-trading like I did (amateur) and lost money. I suffered losses due to the strategy operator's laziness as he was relying on auto-pilot in this volatile market. His results speak for themselves. He was buying at peaks and selling at bottoms, compare his position entries to TESLA chart, you will see yourself. Keep your money with you and don't let a lazy person burn your money for $80 per month + C2 monthly fees, you can burn it yourself better and you can let it out :) |

This is my first Strategy even on this platform and I already lost $900 in one month. Mostly orders are buying at higher price and selling at lower price with Auto trade in this strategy. |

The SuperProfit momentum trading model has been a very consistent profit generator for me. Profit range on average daily from $400 to $1,200 using 200%. Draw downs of concern are few and the trader manages the risk very well. Fits my comfort level unlike others C2 traders that I have tried, Well worth the monthly fee. Bravo! You might want to consider signing up with this SuperProfit money machine. The stats and the equity curve graph show the results. Beautiful upward smooth equity curve. :-) |

This is the worst ever strategy you could find. Drained over 57%(drawdown) of total account of 30K in within a month. All 5 of his strategies of this strategy manager are in heavy loss. He only shows success in his telegram channel (broadcast type) tricking the gullible subscribers to join |

WORST trader. I lost 12k (40% loss) within 1 month of using this trader's strategy. Stay away from this trader. There are plenty of very good strategies on collective2. Research and follow good strategies. I learnt my mistake very hard by following a bad trader. |

Doesn't appear to be managing stop losses very well. Losing lots of up and down swings while holding a position at big negative balance. Perhaps need to change to micro contracts until few profitable months so that averaging can be done. It us disheartening to sit in red even in 2nd month. |

6 weeks in and the results are overwhelming. It will not always go like this, but it seems the manager understands what she is doing. |

Aggressive contrarian trading style in daily futures contracts which is often profitable in the end BUT the strategies come with considerable large overnight or longer drawdowns. That was my experience. You must be considerably patient and control yourself during those nerve-racking spikes at times. Too much stress for me! If you are suited for the rock-n-roll trading gyrations, Trade Detector is eventually more often profitable and may be right for you. Good luck! |

I had had high hopes for this strategy but have finally come to the realization after losing a great deal of money on many of these C2 strategies, that this concept just does not work and is very high risk. You do not know these people or their real intent or capability. I would have been better off losing money in this down market in a mutual fund. |

Fantastic trader. Excellent gains so far. Highly recommend. Disciplined approach with stop losses. Helped me to recover big losses from many other C2 traders to date. Looking forward to gains in 2023 going forward with only the best C2 traders. No more bagholders on C2, who lose it all and more, and have fake results over the long term. Thank you! |

Over the last 18+ months, I've lost 15%... Potentially worth holding onto longer term. Switched management shortly after I subscribed, which makes it difficult to continue holding (although the original manager is still in touch with the current manager, according to a conversation several months ago). Unsure whether it will ever return to its best years, but still seems to avoid massive losses ... Just not seeing the gains. Hmmmmmm..... I'm on the fence! |

I subscribed to this strategy about a month ago. At that time it was ranked #15 in the C2 system and it is now at #1. First the positives. I doubt that there are many strategies on C2 that have a trade leader with the expertise and experience such as this one. I could be wrong on this but I did my homework on the creator and came away very impressed. The monthly subscription fee is relatively low compared to some others and he keeps the number of trades fairly low as well....at least not an exorbitant amount. The trades he does make are 75% profitable. He uses very little leverage and gets great returns. Over the 6 months this strategy has been active there has never been a month that was not profitable. As for the negative aspects, there have been a couple of periods where I was not comfortable with the drawdowns. Also, It is sometimes hard for me to get fills on some of the trades because I trade with less than the recommended capital and at a reduced scale but also because IBKR is unable to find shares available. Because of these negative issues I would give it a 4.5 rating....still an excellent score. |

Strategy developer seems to have changed many of his strategies., over the last week. Another futures developer that is about to crash and burn because the developer changes everything and seems to be experimenting, and with very little communication?? Be careful. Warnings and major red flags. It is not the same system, and he changed it-with little explanation or follow-up to the bad trades. Seems to be taking a lot more risk on. Very erratic trading and seems drastically different based on concerns derived from slippage and market orders. Sent a message prior stating if 'performance doesn't improve' he would soon 'shut the strategy down'. That is not a good, at least warning us. His LucidMNQSwing-you would think that he would be trading only MNQ contracts--today it traded an actual NQ contract causing a significant loss to the system. Trades prior all MNQ and then this week, it starts randomly trading NQ contracts. Then, he creates another strategy with no explanation and starts charging $300, we have seen this before. Time to jump off the train before he runs his strategies into the ground. Would be nice to get feedback from him, which might help, but this last 2 weeks, so different now. This could end badly. Developer needs to message the subscriber ASAP to provide great details to what is going on. I would love to think this strategy survives and does well for everyone, but look at some of the actual trades, particular his MNQ swing--not cool and dangerous to subscribers that weren't expecting to have such increased risk to switching to NQ contracts, that is someone that doesn't value his subscribers. |

I have followed this strategy for 3 months now, and I am still don't feel fully confident about it. It seems Strategy Manager changes trading strategy every 2 weeks and is difficult to evaluate efficiency, besides the feeling of high risk involved by changing strategy without proper backtesting or confidence if it will work well. Sometimes I feel strategy has good entry points, but fail a lot to find the optimum exit points. Communication is poor, I wish he/she could improve it. |

Returns look good when you review the strategy but I didn’t get the same returns as I rarely got the fills for the orders by the brokerage - the strategy shorts micro caps that are hard to borrow. Strategy traded on choppy CPI day and lost heavily on both the long and short side! |

Initially I thought he knows his game and he made good amount. But he has no plan in case his trade go against him. I lost more than 40-50K . please don't trade with him. |

this trader had a lucky start, however, he insisted to short the USD/JPY again when he almost blew up the first time, since then he had gone against the FED, JCB, big trend and leveraged to the neck but give up totally on his stops, praying the JCB would intervene again to save the trade. I had liquidated since he moved the stop second time... |

This is a diversified portfolio of algorithms trading futures. Good risk management, every trade has a stop loss, and all trades are closed by 4:00pm. These are mostly breakout systems, so they can get stopped out in a choppy market, but they are highly profitable when the market makes a big move. The developer is responsive and helpful. Highly recommended! |

Got spanked today. The system kept averaging on a losing trade. Down $37,000 on one trade. This is the prescription for a blow up; The only reason I gave two stars is I have to take some responsibility for choosing it. |

Terrible strategy. Appeared to be a skilled forex strategy when was up 200% and when stated past years results. Quickly discovered that trades are way oversized even with small account size 15k used/recommended, and trader users averaging down on losers which is in general bad trading unless trend is certain. Past results were likely falsified. Trader lost all gains quickly and more with several poor risk management trades. I was fortunate to realize poor skill and risk management was apparent and only lost 25k instead of my whole account. It's also believed that trader also posts false reviews to get customers as all he cares about is the fees, He couldn't care less about blowing up account. Congrats another C2 scam trader. Stay away from ARK anything. |
