A Personal Message From Steve Primo

Dear Trader:

My name is Steve Primo and I am the Director of Education for TradingMarkets and a former 9-year Specialist on the Pacific Stock Exchange.

I'm happy to announce a new trading methodology which in simulated trading has achieved the highest gain per trade of any strategy we have published to date.

How many countless numbers of times have you witnessed the following setup?

A stock drops (often on bad news). As the public sells, the professionals and specialists step in and buy large blocks of shares.

Then, the stock makes a surprising reversal to the upside and the public then tries to re-enter the stock.

The stock explodes and the professionals and specialists exit.

Have you ever wished that you had the knowledge to enter the stock along with the professionals and specialists?

During my nearly three decades in this business, I had never seen nor heard of any trading methodology that systematically buys these short-term over-reactions and then rides the strong, rapid up-move that often ensues.

Today, I believe that such a methodology exists. It is called Raptor II.

With average gains per winning trade of 15.27% and annual simulated portfolio gains that have averaged 94.12% over the past 11+ years, Raptor II is the only model-driven methodology in the world that I am aware of that buys into strong, sometimes explosive reversals that immediately follow extreme drops in individual stocks.

Then, after entering the position, you exit at a specific, defined level. And Raptor II does this over and over again...identifying stocks, quickly getting you in and then quickly getting you out...about 8 to 10 times a month.

Here are are some examples of recent Raptor II trades.

Gains of this size don't occur every day,
But I nave not seen any systematic method that approaches
Raptor II's average winning gains per trade of 15.27% since 1995.

REDF triggers a Raptor II buy signal at 15.75. 5 days later, you exit the Raptor II signal with a gain of 20.19%

Here's another recent signal in Rambus (RMBS).

Raptor II triggers a buy signal in Rambus (RMBS) at 26.90 after the stock has dropped over 20% in the past week.. RMBS reverses and Raptor II exits the stock at 29.69 with a gain of 10.37% in only four days.

And here's a great move in Panacos Pharmaceuticals (PANC)

Here's a great example of how Raptor II was able to identify a large move ahead of time. Raptor II triggers a buy signal in PANC entering at 5.93. The next day after Raptor II enters the trade, the company announces a merger. 3 days later, the stock explodes and Raptor II exits with a 102% gain.

Since 1995 Raptor II has had double-digit gains in 52% of its trades.
Overall, we don't think you'll find a trading methodology that gives the kinds of
potential opportunities that Raptor II has given.

What is the Raptor II Method?

Raptor II was created by Connors Research Group, led by Director of Research Cesar Alvarez. Cesar has quantified the characteristics that are common to stocks that drop rapidly and then snap back to the upside. I'll tell you more about Cesar's background below, but here's the main point (which is backed by over 11 years of statistics and test results).

Raptor II's rules enable you to find the stocks for tomorrow's trading that have the very same characteristics of many thousands of stocks that overreacted to news and then fell too far and too fast...resulting in an explosive reversal.

Raptor II allows you to unemotionally and systematically buy moves in individual stocks that do the following:

1. A stock drops, often on negative news.
2. Raptor II, along with the professionals and specialists, step in and buy.
3. The stock reverses higher.
4. The reversal fuels more buying from the public.
5. The stocks explodes higher.
6. Raptor II exits, taking advantage of the strong snap-back.

Up until now, there has been no systematic, quantified way to predict when a stock in rapid free-fall will turn back to the upside.

For the first time, Raptor II solves this problem and enables you to enter the phase of the move that exhibits the fastest, strongest action. It tells you clearly when to buy and it tells you when to exit.

That's good news if you are a swing trader, especially if you have been frustrated trading pullbacks that seem to always whipsaw you out of trades. Now you can enter well ahead of the pullback trading public.

That's good news if you are a portfolio-driven investor who has woken up too many times to find that overnight news is sending your stocks lower. Now, you'll know when these short-term over-reactions become buying opportunities.

That's good news if you trade low-priced stocks and are looking to trade some of the the largest percentage movers in the market.

And this is good news if you are an options trader who has seen far too many options expire worthless. Raptor II is designed to find stocks that exhibit the fast moves that many long call buyers are searching for.

How Does Raptor II Work And What Are The Results?

Raptor II waits for stocks to drop substantially and then buys once the sellers have been washed out and the professionals move in.

This type of market action has existed for many decades, but until Raptor II, no one to our knowledge has developed a method to trade these fear-driven moves in a systematic way. Raptor II uses a well-defined set-up to identify when to buy. And it uses an well-defined set-up telling you when to sell. While there have been different systems that have traded oversold conditions, we do not believe that any of them have had test trade results that Raptor II has.

And, Best Of All, Raptor II Can Be Traded In These Three Ways

We have not seen any other trading methodology that is as flexible as Raptor II. In addition to trading stocks individually, you can also apply it in a structured portfolio, or to apply it to trading options.

Questions & Answers About Raptor II

Who is Raptor II designed for?

Raptor II is for individual traders (sorry, no hedge funds) who are looking for a simple and easy to way to systematically trade powerful short-term moves in the market. It's for individuals who want to quickly create a list of trades each night and place their orders for the next day in less than 10 minutes...using a method that has over 11 years worth of test results behind it.

Who created Raptor II?

The main researcher behind Raptor II is Cesar Alvarez, Director of Research for Connors Research Group. Cesar was a senior designer of Excel in the 1990's helping Microsoft create Excel. For the past 6 years Cesar has been a professional investor, researcher, and has been in the forefront of stock market research, having developed a number of successful trading systems now used by numerous investors and fund managers in the United States and internationally.

Will all of the rules of Raptor II be fully disclosed to me?

Yes. All of the rules will be clearly explained to you on the day of your internet class with me. Absolutely nothing will be held back. I will explain what Raptor II is, how it works, why it works, and then walk you through multiple examples.

To make applying these rules simpler, we will also provide you with Tradestation and and Amibroker software code that will allow you to automatically scan thousands of stocks each night.

And to ensure your complete understanding, you will receive The Raptor II Guidebook which provides you with all the rules, concepts and examples in a detailed and easy-to-understand printed format. Use this as your quick reference guide every day as you trade the method.

Will I be able to use Raptor II for trading options?

Yes. Please be aware, however, that options trading is a highly risky form of trading. We can make no guarantees about performance. That said, we are pleased to announce that Raptor II has identified stocks that exhibit the rapid and immediate moves that options buyers look for in underlying optionable stocks. If you are looking to buy options, Raptor II can help you find stocks that move substantially in very short period of time. During your Internet Raptor II class, I will show teach you options strategies that you can consider applying to your own trading.

Can I use Raptor II to trade stocks individually, or does it use a portfolio structure?

You can use it both ways if you like. For maximum flexibility, you can use Raptor II as your main swing trading system and focus on entering and exiting individual positions. If you prefer an approach with structured risk control, use the portfolio version of the system. In this case, position sizing and the number of positions held is dictated by the methodology. In my class (details below), I'll teach you both approaches.

Can Raptor II trade low-priced stocks?

Yes. In a substantial number of the stocks that are contained in Raptor II's universe of high-liquidity stocks are stocks trading under $10. This is where you'll find some of the biggest percentage movers in the market.

Do I need to be in front of a screen all day?

No! In just under 10 minutes each night (or before the open) you will be able to perform your complete scan and place your buy or exit orders for the next day. Then, let your broker do the rest as you go about your day's activities.

How do I receive the daily set-ups?

We will provide you with Tradestation and Amibroker code which contain the complete rules of Raptor II. Each evening your software will scan through thousands of stock in search of the ones that are able to meet its strict criteria.

Also, we will provide you with one year of full online access to the Raptor II signals that we generate in-house.

How do I place my orders?

You will place your orders for the upcoming day before the open. Most orders will be limit orders and you can find out anytime during the day or after the close whether or not your orders were filled.

What will my day look like?

Each evening after the close, you will identify the Raptor II portfolio signals for the upcoming-day. You can either scan for them yourself or you can get them from a privately protected password web site which you will have free access to.

You will then place your buy orders and your sell orders for the upcoming days open. Once you're in your positions, you can monitor them during the day if you so wish. After the close, you will again run your scans using the software code we provide to you or come to the private website to determine which stocks you will be exiting and which stocks you will be buying on the upcoming days open. It really is that simple.

How easy is Raptor II to learn?

We believe that you will find Raptor II to be very easy to learn. There only 8 rules and they can be learned in under 30 minutes. You will most likely be up and trading by the next trading day.

Is Raptor II similar to the previous version of Raptor which reached its ?

The answer is no. These two methods are different and their focus is on different stocks using a different set of rules and different time frames. And as good as the first Raptor was and still is...we believe that Raptor II is even better. And we have not seen any other quantified trading methodology that can show comparable results on an individual trade by trade basis.

How long will it take me each evening to set-up my day?

We'll officially say 10 minutes. But in reality, it should take you under 5 minutes to get your stocks and place your trades with your broker.

Why have the set-ups using Raptor II shown so much success?

There are several reasons for this, but the main one that Cesar Alvarez and the Connors Research team were able to quantify characteristics that are common to stocks that drop rapidly and then snap back to the upside.

To find these stocks on a daily basis, Raptor II applies 7 filters using trend, volatility, maximum excursion (what we also call "stretch"), liquidity and other key characteristics. While each one of these filter provides a potential edge, we believe the statistical edge increases exponentially when all 7 are present in a stock.

You will then place your buy order for next day's trading. These buy orders use a proprietary entry level which brings the potential edge to the optimum level. Raptor II then enters the stocks whose buy orders are triggered.

Altogether, there are a small handful of simple rules for you to follow each evening. With average gains over 9% per trade and 15% for the winning trades (the highest gains per trade that we have ever published), the results speak for themselves.

If I need additional help will you provide me with ongoing assistance?

Yes. I, as the head of Education for TradingMarkets, am here to answer any questions you may have. Also, our Raptor II Consultants are here daily (Monday-Friday) from 9:30 am-8:30 pm (ET) to help you in any way needed.

What will you learn...

My Guidebook and teaching session are designed to give you the same personalized learning experience that you would have if we were together in person. You'll see charts, tables, and all of rules and explanations clearly laid out. And I will walk you through numerous trades from beginning to end, exploring every possible "what-if" scenario. During the four hours, I will teach you:

• All the rules of the method. You will learn how to properly execute Raptor II's eight proprietary rules. I believe you will find that these rules are simple to learn and easy to learn. And to ensure that you apply them correctly, I will take you through many dozens of examples that have occurred in the recent market. The rules I teach you will enable you to trade a method that has:
  

  	Has averaged since 1995 over 7.43% Gains Per Trade (over 15% per winning trade), the highest gains per trade of any system that we have ever published.
  	Has had an average compounded annual return of 94.12% for over 11 years (from 1/3/1995 through 04/1/2006).
  	Has been profitable for nearly 88% of all months during this time period.
  	Has had double-digit gains in 52% of it's trades, the highest of any system we have previously published.
  	The first and only systematic vehicle for trading long call options that we have ever released (just buying calls...no complicated spreads).

• All the logic that is behind the rules. As we get into the guts of the rules, I will teach you how and why it works. Most importantly, you will see how Raptor II allows you to enter steep drops at the same time that specialists and professional traders are buying. You will see, as I now do that price movements that were formerly scary situations actually become well-structured opportunities. It's all the in numbers that'll I'll show you.
• How to select your stocks each evening. I will teach you and then drill you through a simple series of steps that you will follow on a nightly basis. This should take you 10 minutes or less each evening.

These professional guidelines are designed to help you maximize and maintain smooth equity growth while keeping risk under control.
• How to enter and exit trades. All your initial trades can be placed on the open. You will then wait for a sell signal to exit the position (also on the open). I will also teach you techniques to scale out of positions intra-day if you wish to be more aggressive. Many times, Raptor II has large gains and you have the option of taking profits instead of waiting until the next day (this will be a personal choice of yours and I will teach this to you).
• How to trade options with Raptor II. Because of the high gains per trade (over 15% per trade) that Raptor II has had over the past 11+ years in simulated trading, Raptor II is a great vehicle for options traders. I will show you the best ways to enter, exit and control your risk.

P.S. Don't put off registering. The first Raptor was taken off the market forever. In order to maintain the potential edge, this one will likely be taken off the market too once it reaches its threshold.

Important Notice: Except where otherwise specifically stated, all trades are based on hypothetical or simulated trading. Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain inherent limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, since the trades have not actually been executed, the results may have under-or-over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated 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 those shown. Commissions, fees, and slippage have not been included. This is neither a solicitation to buy/sell securities or listed options.

How the results were obtained:
The simulated returns looked at a universe of over 6000 stocks. The data was obtained from outside sources which we believe are reliable but we cannot assure their complete accuracy. The tests were run on an open-to-open basis from January 1, 1995-March 31, 2006. One cent commissions were charged and cash balances assumed 3 month t-bill rates. Any dividends received along the way were not included in the test results.

* Please note that the results presented here are hypothetical and not actual trades.
