Automated Trading for Regular People
Collective2 lets regular humans use the same automated trading algorithms that are used by hedge funds and commodity trading advisors.
Just type in your brokerage account number, choose an automated "system," (or two, or three) and watch your real-time results as Collective2 AutoTrade technology places trades automatically in your brokerage account. Sort of like magic, but without the spandex.
What are Automated Trading Systems?
Automated Systems are computer software programs developed by programmers all over the world. These programs place trades automatically in your brokerage account, trying to make profits. In the old days, only hedge funds had access to "systems." Now, using Collective2, anyone can rent these systems for a flat monthly fee (typically about $100 each month).
Here is $100,000. Enjoy.
We'll give you a free, simulated broker account with $100,000 dollars in it. (Sorry, the money is not real, but the super-coolness of our technology is.)
Use the simulated account exactly like a real brokerage account. Turn on Collective2 "systems," watch results, make adjustments. You can switch to a real account if and when you are ready.

About the results you see on this Web site
Past results are not necessarily indicative of future results.
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.
In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk in actual trading. For example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program, which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all of which can adversely affect actual trading results.
Material assumptions and methods used when calculating results
The following are material assumptions used when calculating any hypothetical monthly results that appear on our web site.
- Profits are reinvested. We assume profits (when there are profits) are reinvested in the trading strategy.
- Starting investment. For any trading system on our Web site, we assume you will invest the amount that appears as the starting amount of that system's performance chart.
- All fees are included. When calculating cumulative returns, we try to estimate and include all the fees a typical trader incurs when AutoTrading using AutoTrade technology. This includes the subscription cost of the strategy, plus any per-trade AutoTrade fees, plus estimated broker commissions if any.
- "Max Drawdown" Calculation Method. We calculate the Max Drawdown statistic as follows. Our computer software looks at the equity chart of the system in question and finds the largest percentage amount that the equity chart ever declines from a local "peak" to a subsequent point in time (thus this is formally called "Maximum Peak to Valley Drawdown.") While this is useful information when evaluating trading systems, you should keep in mind that past performance does not guarantee future results. Therefore, future drawdowns may be larger than the historical maximum drawdowns you see here.
Trading is risky
There is a substantial risk of loss in futures and forex trading. Online trading of stocks and options is extremely risky. Assume you will lose money. Don't trade with money you cannot afford to lose.
