Dear Traderade family,
First of all, we would like to thank you for being a valued subscriber. As a young company, you took a chance on us and for that we are very grateful for your support.
We are always looking for new ways to improve your experience. Over the last few months, we have introduced a number of different features and modules that we hope have greatly improved your journey.
As part of our new initiatives, we will be rolling out “Traderade Ideas” - where we will organize our ideas for stock picks and potential opportunities in other asset classes. We are not registered investment advisors, so none of this would investment or trading advice. However, the ideas would be carefully researched and we propose the following framework.
Investment Process - How Ideas are Chosen
Macro & Industry
Company Fundamentals
Technical Analysis and Event Catalysts
Investment Time Frames
Trade - Up to 3 weeks - Based mostly on Technicals and Catalysts
Swing - Up to 4 months - Based on Macro, Fundamentals and Technicals
Investment - Long-term - Based mostly on Macro and Fundamentals
Estimated Investment Risk Level
High Risk - More volatile, larger moves expected. Less certainty of outcomes. Potential for the trade to go against us. Smaller positions sizes are recommended.
Medium Risk - Medium Volatility with more tempered moves. Trades may have more certainty that high risk.
Low Risk - Lower Volatility with assets that move slower. Although large prices may be experiences on occasion, they are not as likely.
Please note: this is just an estimate and we may move an idea between categories, if there are catalysts
Idea Category
Strong Buy
Buy
Neutral - On the watchlist
Sell
Strong Sell
Framework
New ideas for Medium to Long Term will be added on a monthly basis. Short-term ideas may be added at any time. All ideas will be presented with analysis and insights on why it was chosen.
A weekly monitor of assets will be posted. The monitor will highlight any changes and relevant news updates
Ad hoc important updates like adding and removing ideas and news
We are of course, open to suggestions and would love to hear your feedback in the comments section. We wanted to start tracking our ideas so that there would be a unified approach, and members will be able to see all our ideas in one go every week.
We may or may not take positions in the ideas that we have recommended. We will disclose this to the extent possible. However again, our positions should not be construed as trading or investment advice.
We also want to reiterate that we will provide a framework, but risk management of your portfolio should be something you should consider before making any trade or investment.
Once again, we thank you for staying with us and we hope that this would be a service that would provide you with additional value. We hope to roll this out in the next couple of weeks as we screen and research potential ideas.
