Holds and Buys positions for months, No Active trading. This strategy is expensive for the activity happens in it. |

Long term this strategy seems to do ok, although imho they do not trade often enough. I have seem the holdings go up in value, no action, then drop significantly loosing the profit, yet to repeat the rise, no sale and drop again. Long term they do extract some value but it could be better. |

Not worth for the money charged monthly. Buys ETF's and holds them for weeks/months until they go up. We can do ourselves same thing. |

Very disciplined and consistent system. Excellent results and good control of risk. Noteworthy, the manager offers a prompt support to the investor. |

So far so good, at least this strategy didn't star loosing money when you subscribed like most of the other. |

The system manager sends long emails explaining the technical which may be a good thing except its rarely ever useful. The main point of following ( and paying for) a strategy is to make money ( or loose less than the market does ). IN my experience of last 12 monhts or so - this strategy has failed in doing so. He also is not very good in responding to questions. Overall i will give it 2 stars. |

You'll see this strategy has pretty impressive track record in the long term, but I started autotrading 6 months ago, and I'm only up 5%. Guy doesn't know when to take profits, he relies too much on his rules based system. Will sell TQQQ at 65 the end of one day, only to buy at 70 the next day. This screws us on wash sales and taxes. Shame on me for not selling myself when we were up 30%, but then again the whole point of this site is to not have to trade ourselves! Shame on me, I know no returns are guaranteed, but I'm really disappointed with the results. |

Not sure where to begin with this. I guess the good is that I did make a little money with this strategy. Now the bad. It has been said that he is a good communicator. I would say that he is a frequent communicator but you can only believe about half of what he says. The strategy makes great money in ascending markets because of the triple leverage he often employs. However, he does not use stops and there is nothing more frustrating than seeing good profits vanish and turn negative when the markets head south. I started turning off auto trade when I was sitting on a good profit but this defeats the whole purpose of C2 does it not? I no longer want to sit at my desk and monitor the markets. There is too much golf to play! Having said all of this I would advise those interested in this strategy to take a look at the "strategy activity details" of Mr. BlackBoulderTrading. They are very telling. It appears as if he got lucky with this particular strategy for the time being, unlike many of the other strategies that he has "killed." This guy seems to be nice but I am not sold on this strategy. My inexperienced daughter with no knowledge of the stock market could make money in a bull market. Due diligence..... |

I have been following this strategy for almost a year. Luckely I made some profit by the end of 2023, But 2024 so far (Jan-July) is not convincing at all. As long as the markets were climbing slowly the strategy made profits, but all the profits made in the last few weeks/months got lost again within a few days, when the markets turned around. It's a mess. Last year the trader wrote to the subscribers that the strategy would make tons of money in 2024 when markets are bearish, but so far the strategy still went long when the markets were falling in April and July. While other strategies quickly went short and made money. So for me in 2024 this strategy was a waste of time and money. |

I have to look at the overall trend of this system and not the current trade. Started in January this year and LET has made me good money so I can't complain. It's never fun to have a trade well in the money then deep in a hole but I'm sticking with it. The daily briefings are informative and times like today reassuring. Sticking with it. |

Started having tons of losses going down about 50 percent and then raises price 10 times the amount. Not worth anything. |

Total joke of a trader. Needs to learn stop losses and when to take profits with trail stop. Has created a system to sucker in fees and promise subscribers millons of profits but recently has disclaimer that trading risky and nothing guaranteed. All he does is baghold trades long so occasionally in profits, but then he loses those profits and goes into major negative. Total fraud trader has sucked in majority of c2 subscribers with this pyramid scheme. Beware has no real skills to protect gains or limit losses. |

Good overall strategy withconsistent returns so far. Could be existing losing trades a little bit earlier and staying in winning trades a bit longer would be my only suggestion for improvement. I would recommend to anyone looking for a consistent winning strategy. |

I quite liked this system - mainly because of the tight control of drawdowns by letting the winners run and cutting losses short. So when the market explodes ( in either direction) this system can really profit. I also liked the use of well-capitalised stocks minimising any slippage and bad fills. I didn't like being in the market 24/7, resulting stock churn, and paying the resulting trade and interest fees ( for margin accounts), which drop proportionally the larger the account - but for smaller accounts can impact the net profit. Allow for exposure to at least 12 open stock trades (excluding futures) and watch the T margin if you're using a margin account. Overall one I may come back to with a larger account size. |

Strong trader. One of my select top favorites on C2. Think he should stay away from short trade swings and just focus on his long swing strat trades. Performance would be even better if so. |

I am not keen on systems which consistently add to open losing positions, as it inevitably leads to massive position sizing as the trade is chased further into loss. Average in by all means, but keep the position sizing constant to allow for fair comparisons and appropriate account management. Far better to wait and get better entries using fixed position sizes, thus avoiding so many trades with open losses. |

Very disciplined, always places stoploss and limit closing orders, and always flat at the close (no overnight holds.) I have been with this strategy since January 2023 and am very satisfied. |

Typical c2 scam strategy fluffs up fake very large lucky gains over short time period but slowly crash and burn becomes apparent due to no stop loss. Anything that looks to good in short term usually is. |

I had high hopes for this system but unfortunately the reason systems traders has so many systems is because the entries and stops on similar trades are completely random so all they care about is if a few systems occasionally win short term but eventually due to stats and trade randomness the systems all do poorly over time. Biggest c2 scam ever if trader has multiple systems beware! Stay far away! |

This strategy statistically is terrible. They get a couple big lucky wins, but then eventually due to stats and overtrading they lose everything. I don’t know why everyone thinks this trader is amazing. They are not. |

Ben is a good trader especially when it comes to preservation of capital. The equity curve could be very volatile since he is daytrading futures exclusively. So the best way to subscribe is to step back, have some faith, let him do all the hard work, and collect the $$ at the end of the year. |

If you like seeing all your money blow up and averaging down at the top in a downtrend this is definitely for you. It’s too bad all the people who joined didn’t join for the ride up in a rare bullish year, just the ride down. Get out now before you lose everything you’ll just keep averaging down losers, and he’s convinced the market will always go up. Stop losses are too wide and eventually he’ll lose everything. Stay away! |

This guy has to be the worst trader and communicator of all time. I can't believe that i did not see the early signs and stayed with him. Has costed us over 15 k in loss and does not curtesy to even send a message. Lesson learned - never ever trade a system that is not TOS. |

"Found It" had a great run for a while, but starting around mid-January, increased leverage a lot. I experienced multiple margin limits and therefore autotrading results were much worse than the model results. Future subscribers will need considerably more than the recommended balance to match the model results. Also, Found It started using NQ contracts rather than MNQ, so scaling doesn't work. I recommend avoiding Found It unless it returns to the small contracts and lower leverage. |

The Strategy manager needs to limit/manage the size of drawdowns. The drawdown was too large for me. A tight stop would minimize the loss (if the market would have continued down.) Preservation of capital is critical on every trade not a convenience. Luckily this time there was a market bounce ( this time. ) |

Huge drawdowns. Got lucky in January when large drawdown reversed but now the bagholding in February doesn’t seem to be working. Dangerous strategy as high excursion ratio risk vs profit. |

Leveraged ETF Trading and Black Boulder Traading's track record speak for themselves. While I'm a bit frustrated that he didnt take profits when we were up 5% on the month afer the first week of February and now we are down 4% for February I'm confident in his strategy for the long run. Rather than selling you smoke and mirrors and swinging for the fences, he lives by the goal of 6% monthly gains, which he has averaged over the strategy life despite this down month. His communication with subscribers is top notch, as he sends out a nice summary/outlook after each trading day and responds to private messages promptly. |

One of the worst, more like it. Nearly destroyed my entire portfolio with one bad trade. And in the midst of it, I reached out for support, no response. Do you like paying $250/month to lose $40k? I don't. |

Seriously? You really rescaled the strategy down, to force subscribers to upgrade the auto trading platform to Standard Plan (up to 3 strategies)? I don't see any other reason. These are not good practices. I will quit once my subscription is up for renewal. Business need to clear and candid |

Absolutely phenomenal strategy. The results speak for themselves. I've had some bad experiences with C2, but Black Boulder is the real deal. From what I understand, his system has been developed over 20 years of trading, and you can tell this is a passion project for him (he literally spends time on weekends pouring over charts!). He trades his own strategy, he sends regular analysis updates, he's responsive to messages, and I genuinely believe a big part of his mission is to help those of us with little accounts grow to over $1 million over several years. He charges one of the lowest fees on C2, and has one of the best track records (if not the best) on C2. I can't recommend this strategy highly enough. Of course, do your own research. You might like to check out what other reviewers have said of his sister strategy, 'Leveraged ETF Trading.' |

The strategy looked good, but not anymore after a 20% drawdown within a few days in December. And it is still unclear whether the drawdown will become even larger. A 7-10% account loss in one day is possible. This happened 3 times in December. Once the daily loss was made up for by a profit a few days later. To me, this strategy takes unacceptable daily risks, which is clearly evident in December. After this realization, I definitely no longer use the strategy. |

The huge drawdowns cause account to become below broker PDT requirements. You have to deposit more money to keep trading. And then you just lose more money. I do not know how the profit numbers are calculated as shown on C2., I lots 80 % of my investment in 12 months, I kept thinking it would get better but it did not. I had to close my account due to the huge losses. |
|
|

Looking forward to some solid returns, based on this team's track record with their original strategy "LUCIDMNQ". |
|
|
2023-11-10
|
Recent developments made me stop this strategy. The scaling was different on my account, and the max draw down was over 10%. Also keep in mind that the "all time change" is not a real number, you have to deduct transaction costs and the costs to follow this strategy. All in all for me not a profitable strategy as a follower |
|
|
2023-11-09
|
Not getting results showed by C2. The position sizing seems to be critical to mirror 100% as the strategy seems to change in approach week to week, entering and exiting various size positions in sequence. So, it's challenging to figure out how to mirror w/ partial positioning. Even at currently 2/3, I'm not able to duplicate the results. |

This manager totally lost it today. Usually does 1 and 3 lots resulting in small losses or gains. All of the sudden, lost discipline and started firing off 10 lots of mnq and then a 3 lot of nq resulting in over 4000. of losses in less than 2 hours. Don't touch this. |
