Gap Fade Portfolio
Performance is the sole factor on which all investment strategies should be judged. Furthermore, an investment strategy is successful only if it has the ability to consistently outperform the market over the long-term. Unfortunately, those particular types of strategies are few and far between. Our approach is to present our subscribers with several simple and disciplined approaches to investing which have resulted in consistent success over the long-term.

Here at Crowder Investment Research, LLC, we have an unconventional method of trading gaps in the Nasdaq 100 (QQQQ). Back-testing this particular method shows a win ratio which has exceeded 78% over the last twelve years. Furthermore, the strategy had a win ratio of 79% during the bear market of March 2000-September 2002. Take that win ratio and add a disciplined approach to trading the strategy and it's easy to see how successful this unique strategy can be. Basically, the Gap Fade strategy consists of short-term trades utilizing calls or puts that last a maximum of two days. The strategy typically trades one to three times a month, thereby limiting exposure to the market.
