Need Some Help Choosing

the Best Service For You?

This page will compare & contrast key differences between our service offerings… aiming to help you pick the best one (if only one is enough) for you. Here are features & benefits BOTH services have in common:

Novice-friendly, "just read them to your broker" email alerts are sent to all subscribers when it is time to take action. If you've already tried one service, you'll easily grasp the other one. Download Free Samples to see for yourself.

Currently Open Positions & Recently Closed Positions tables make it at-a-glance simple to keep up with current status of all trades.

Both services are bull & bear market agile, meaning they can make money BOTH ways (shorting recommendations capitalize on falling markets).

Both have average holding periods from as little as 1 day to as long as about 30 days. An occasional trade may hold longer than 30 days.

Each has its own, education-rich, Subscriber Q&A feature for all service-specific questions.

Each has its own, unique New Subscriber Guide, covering all of the details to help new subscribers get up to speed ASAP.

Our industry-shaking, 100% total satisfaction guarantee, so you can try either or both services with complete confidence.

Sal directly involved in ALL trade selection & educational features, ongoing real-time monitoring of open positions, and supporting features. That's nearly 40 years of bull, bear & flat markets experience making FINAL decisions on EVERY actionable recommendation.

And here’s how they differ from each other…

8 Most FAQs About Our Services

Questions below open & close on clicks. Click the question of interest to reveal the answer…

  • 1. Do people buy both services?

    Of course! Each is entirely its own service- like buying 2 books or 2 cars. Each service offers distinct recommendations, tracking tables, Q&A, investor education, bonus features and so on. People buy more than one service because they want more trade recommendations and/or more subscriber-exclusive education from Sal and our team.

    Both work very similar, so if you have been a subscriber to one, the other will feel quite familiar.

  • 2. Why do number of recommendations each month have the approximate symbol in front of them?

    Because we won't force out less-than-stellar picks per our methodologies & indicators... which also means there could be periods of weeks with as few as ZERO new recommendations and then short periods of time with MANY.

    On average, we expect to share the approximate number of new recommendations shown in the table. But the goal is always QUALITY over quantity/quotas. Nobody wants anything less than the very best trades, so we won't force out trades that don't meet Sal's highest standards.

  • 3. Why "up to" in front of profit target info?

    There's no fixed target in trading. Sometimes a trader is trying to scalp a small, quick "base hit" and then they swing for the fences in another trade. There are times in investing where going for a series of smaller wins is better than sitting on the sidelines or swinging for big hits every single time. We find our customers tend to favor winning often vs. winning big on a lone home run at the expense of many strike outs.

    Sal & team are more concerned with overall success, which can be measured by relative account growth vs. what you might have netted if you parked the same cash in an index fund over the same time frame. Our primary objective- aligned with yours- is to help you make MORE money than other options. You reward success with that by renewing your subscription.

  • 4. Does holding period mean that all trades are held about that long?

    No, trades are held until they either automatically trigger their profit target or stop and close... or we opt to manually recommend an exit due to some changing condition. Holds can be very short (days, sometimes just hours) or long (up to several months).

  • 5. Should new subscribers enter existing trades that are still open?

    Subscribers are free to do whatever they want as they use our service. However, our general suggestion is to NOT buy into existing trades in the Currently Open Position table. Why? The drivers of what made us recommend them at a specific point in the past will be different now... and some may be close to closing out and thus not have much real opportunity left in them.

    We believe it is generally best for each new subscriber to start fresh with the NEXT recommendation that is released. That means you would enter the new trade at the ideal time instead of well after that time... and when everything we foresee about the trade is still ahead instead of somewhat to mostly already realized and/or facing headwinds that meaningfully alter our view of the opportunity.

  • 6. Why only 1 open position in the pricier service?

    Our flagship service- Sal's Private Trades- is sometimes internally referred to as the "everything but the kitchen sink" service because it can offer a bit of all kinds of recommendations and has more general activity & a broader mix of educational features. Many subscribers think of it as our core service.

    Our other service- the Swinging SPY Futures Express- is generally focused on being "always invested" and plays market momentum. Subscribers are always in because just about every recommendation manually closes the current position and enters a new one. It's a market momentum service because it is jumping on the best bull and bear opportunities in the S&P500 index, traded with either a specific "just read it to the broker" futures trade (the ES contract) or an almost identical stock ETF trade (the SPY ETF). A subscriber can choose to trade either the ES or SPY to take advantage of the core bull or bear idea.

    The primary value in this service is not about quantity of trades but quality of result. Subscribers are basically leveraging Sal's long-term experience to short-term trade S&P500 index positions. You move in and out... bull & bear... as Sal foresees best opportunity. He's using very liquid, broad index positions to minimize downside risk via their built-in diversification.

  • 7. What are the differences in the free bonuses?

    The NASDAQ Index-Based Alert service (trading QLD)- the QQQ Ultra Wealth Builder- is much like our other email alert-oriented service (Swinging SPY Futures Express), except it will issue only approx. 4-6 or so trades each year (and thus be in cash for portions of the year). It is designed to capitalize on relatively short-term, BULLISH-only moves in the technology sector.

    This service will eventually spin off and become its own service, likely priced at $1K-$2500/yr. Sal's Private Trades subscribers can enjoy this valuable bonus for free until it becomes our third service.

    What is QQQ? It is an ETF by Invesco that represents the entire NASDAQ index. QQQ buyers are buying the entire basket of stocks in the NASDAQ in ONE transaction. In other words, it's just like buying a share of stock but this "stock" is ALL stocks in the NASDAQ index.

    What is QLD? QLD is the Proshares Ultra (leveraged) QQQ, so investors in these trades are basically trading the entire NASDAQ index with 2X leverage. What is 2X leverage? When an investment in QQQ yields $1,000 in gains, the 2X QLD yields approx. $2,000. Very simply: 2X leverage means that gains and losses are multiplied by approx. 2 in this kind of trade. A quick sizable gain in QQQ would be about twice as sizable in QLD. It's a fantastic way to make big, exciting profits investing in the entire technology sector as a whole.

    The Swinging SPY Futures Express service comes with an exclusive special report called The Secret Wall Street Buy & Sell Points, which ties directly into the kind of trading done in that service. This report is similar to our other special reports available in the Investing Education menu... except this one is ONLY available to subscribers of this service.

  • 8. Can you summarize how the services work?

    Yes... primarily and very simply through email:

    1. subscribers receive timely email from us when it is the day & time to take action.

    2. A click of a link in the email brings them to a detailed recommendation on our website... which is formatted with completely-novice investors in mind, so they can basically just “read it to their broker."

    3. All key information is in that alert except the one thing only each subscriber can- and should- decide: how much money to put into each trade. As a publisher, that detail is none of our business, nor are we permitted to offer any kind of personalized advice along such lines.

    To quote a famous insurance company tagline... "even a caveman can do it"... IF Grog knew how to read… AND has a brokerage account with some money in it for investing. So if you are at least as sharp as Grog the caveman, you can do it too!

    WHAT ABOUT EXITING TRADES?
    Getting OUT of our trades is as easy as getting in:

    In Sal's Private Trades, most exits are triggered by some automatic orders placed when your broker confirms each new trade is filled. In short: once they are entered, you don't even have to think about the trade again as it will automatically close when one of those orders execute.

    In the Swinging SPY Futures Express, the exit- which is actually a "swing" to the opposite bias (bull position becomes bear or vice versa)- arrives via followup email alert. So both IN & OUT of this service is mostly about watching for new email and taking action.

    The main idea here is that subscribers to our services are not left hanging on when to exit trades. We very clearly convey when we think it is the most opportune time to exit… either to take a profit or cut a loss moving in the wrong direction short.

    AT-A-GLANCE TABLES FOR QUICK CHECKS AT ANY TIME
    The services include 3 super-handy tables to make keeping up with all action insanely easy. The:

    1. Recommendations table summarizes ALL current recommendations and other types of information stacked up by date published, most recent first. This is the “landing page” for subscribers when they click the link in the email alerts. The new trade is at the top of this table. You click to open it and see the trade details. If you like the recommendation, you can place it with your own broker.

    2. Currently Open Positions table summarizes all officially-filled recommendations, also stacked up as most recent activity first.

    3. Recently Closed Positions table is the most recent, officially-closed positions, stacked up by date each closed, most recent closes first.

    These tools exist to make being a subscriber as easy as possible. With quick glances, every bit of action is summarized for even the busiest subscriber.

    EDUCATIONAL FEATURES EXCLUSIVE TO EACH SERVICE
    The services also include 2 key educational features beyond select education built into the recommendations and related issues themselves:

    1. Subscriber Questions Answered is similar to the Investor Questions Answered feature in the Investing Education menu, EXCEPT it is focused on questions and answers only subscribers should see… such as questions about current trades or educational concepts shared with subscribers. Subscribers ask questions and we post them with detailed, informative answers for the benefit of ALL subscribers. It's a great way to learn on-the-fly. Most questions are about timely things happening at the time, so the education feels towards real-time, considering whatever is going on in the world at that point in time.

    2. New Subscriber Guide is THE Quickstart Guide for EVERYTHING anyone wants to know about each service. Think of it as a comprehensive handbook. It is created from all the questions we’ve ever been asked by subscribers related to using and making the most of the service. Just about anything a subscriber wants to know- including more details about each of the features referenced above- are covered in the NSG. When we are rarely asked something NOT covered there, that topic and a solid answer is likely to be woven into an updated version of the NSG. The goal is to eventually cover every topic in one complete guide.
