ODDS Index Trader ™

Index Trader™

ODDS Index Trader is a stock index advisory service created by Don Fishback. While the advisory service is new, the system is not. The service is based on an intermediate-duration directional trading system that Don Fishback began developing in 1993. The indicators used in this system were first shown to the public, and have been in constant use since January 1994. For more information on the methodology, click here.

IMPORTANT RISK DISCLOSURE INFORMATION: PLEASE READ!
ODDS INDEX TRADER Subscription Agreement 1) RISK DISCLOSURE STATEMENT: ODDS INDEX TRADER (THE .SERVICE.) IS OFFERED BY FISHBACK MANAGEMENT AND RESEARCH, INC. (.FMR.). THE SERVICE PROVIDES BULLISH AND BEARISH RECOMMENDATIONS ON STOCK INDEX PRODUCTS. DON FISHBACK, WHO IS THE AUTHOR OF THE SERVICE, USES THOSE RECOMMENDATIONS TO TRADE INDEX FUTURES. SUBSCRIBERS ARE FREE TO USE THE INDEX PRODUCT OF THEIR CHOICE. FOR THOSE SUBSCRIBERS WHO CHOOSE TO TRADE INDEX FUTURES, PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPH CAREFULLY: FUTURES TRADING INVOLVES SIGNIFICANT RISK OF LOSS. FUTURES TRADING IS NOT SUITABLE FOR ALL INVESTORS. YOU MAY LOSE A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF MONEY IN A VERY SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. THE AMOUNT YOU LOSE IS POTENTIALLY UNLIMITED AND CAN EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU ORIGINALLY DEPOSIT WITH YOUR BROKER. THIS IS BECAUSE FUTURES TRADING IS HIGHLY LEVERAGED, WITH A RELATIVELY SMALL AMOUNT OF MONEY USED TO ESTABLISH A POSITION IN ASSETS HAVING A MUCH GREATER VALUE. IF YOU ARE UNCOMFORTABLE WITH THIS LEVEL OF RISK, YOU SHOULD NOT TRADE FUTURES CONTRACTS. 2) OTHER INFORMATION SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT: Receipt or use by the subscriber of any material provided by FMR, at any time, distributed via any method, is subject to this Agreement. 3) PERSONAL TRACK RECORD OF THE AUTHOR AND USE OF HYPOTHETICAL TRADES IN BACK-TESTING: Don Fishback follows each and every recommendation provided in the Service. A copy of his month-to-month performance record is contained in this agreement. In order to give you additional historical perspective, FMR uses hypothetical index futures trades when displaying backtested performance figures. ALL OF THE HISTORICAL EXAMPLES PRIOR TO AUGUST 2005 CONTAIN HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLES FOR TESTING AND ILLUSTRATION PURPOSES. The CFTC provides an excellent description of the limitations of hypothetical trades, therefore we strongly suggest you read the following statement. HYPOTHETICAL RISK STATEMENT: THESE RESULTS ARE BASED ON SIMULATED OR HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS THAT HAVE CERTAIN INHERENT LIMITATIONS. UNLIKE THE RESULTS SHOWN IN AN ACTUAL PERFORMANCE RECORD, THESE RESULTS DO NOT REPRESENT ACTUAL TRADING. ALSO, BECAUSE THESE TRADES HAVE NOT ACTUALLY BEEN EXECUTED, THESE RESULTS MAY HAVE UNDER-OR OVER-COMPENSATED FOR THE IMPACT, IF ANY, OF CERTAIN MARKET FACTORS, SUCH AS LACK OF LIQUIDITY. SIMULATED OR HYPOTHETICAL TRADING PROGRAMS IN GENERAL ARE ALSO SUBJECT TO THE FACT THAT THEY ARE DESIGNED WITH THE BENEFIT OF HINDSIGHT. NO REPRESENTATION IS BEING MADE THAT ANY ACCOUNT WILL OR IS LIKELY TO ACHIEVE PROFITS OR LOSSES SIMILAR TO THESE BEING SHOWN. 4) SUBSCRIPTION TERMS: ODDS INDEX TRADER is a subscription service delivered electronically. The subscription term is one year. It begins immediately upon completion of the purchase transaction, unless stipulated in writing by FMR. 5) REFUND POLICY: ODDS INDEX TRADER HAS A MONEY-BACK GUARANTEE. IF THE TRADES PROVIDED TO YOU OVER THE COURSE OF YOUR ONE-YEAR SUBSCRIPTION PERIOD RESULT IN A LOSS, YOU ARE ENTITLED TO A FULL REFUND OF YOUR PURCHASE PRICE. THE PROFITABILITY OF THE SERVICE WILL BE BASED ON THE PERFORMANCE OF THE SERVICE'S MODEL PORTFOLIO, WHICH IS BASED ON THE ACTUAL TRADING ACCOUNT OF THE ADVISOR USING AN EQUAL NUMBER OF E-MINI S&P 500 FUTURES CONTRACTS. IF YOU VARY THE NUMBER OF CONTRACTS TRADED, YOUR RESULTS MAY VARY FROM THAT OF THE MODEL PORTFOLIO. IF YOU UNDERFUND YOUR ACCOUNT AND EXIT A TRADE AT A LOSS BEFORE WE GIVE RECOMMENDATIONS TO EXIT, YOUR RESULTS MAY VARY FROM THAT OF THE MODEL PORTFOLIO. IF YOU TRADE IN A MANNER THAT IS INCONSISTENT WITH OUR TRADING RECOMMENDATIONS TO YOU, YOUR RESULTS MAY VARY FROM THAT OF THE MODEL PORTFOLIO. IN ORDER TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR A REFUND, YOU MUST FOLLOW THE TRADES TAKEN BY THE ADVISOR SO THAT YOUR TRADING RESULTS REASONABLY MATCH THAT OF THE MODEL PORTFOLIO. YOU AGREE TO PROVIDE TRADING RECORDS SO THAT THE ADVISOR MAY VERIFY THAT YOU PROPERLY FOLLOWED THE RECOMMENDATIONS PROVIDED TO YOU. YOUR ELIGIBILITY FOR A REFUND WILL BEGIN ONLY AT THE END OF THE 12-MONTH PERIOD. 6) PARTIAL PAY/SPLIT PAY: If you have been granted permission to make payments, the terms and conditions of your subscription are slightly different than subscribers who made full payment at the inception of the subscription. If you fail to make subsequent payments, your subscription will automatically revert to a pro-rated subscription term. For instance, if you pay half now and fail to make subsequent payments, your subscription duration will revert to a six-month term. The guarantee, however, will not change. The guarantee will be based upon the performance of the model portfolio over a one-year time frame. Refund eligibility will begin one year after your subscription term begins. 7) RENEWAL: This subscription does NOT automatically renew.
