Using a Day Trading Robot for Huge Portfolio Gains?

By Sally Bancroft Frank Bramson Perry Tandough Jack Dodington

If you are not familiar with the term Day Trading, let me fill you in very quickly. It is the process of buying and selling stock positions within the same trading day. Typically the objective is to capitalize on market volatility either moving up or down in the effort to post quick substantial portfolio gains.

There is also the strategy of swing trading. This lies between day trading and trend following, both intended to create big profits in a short amount of time. Swing trading usually is executed within one day or extending to a couple of weeks. Momentum is the key play here, along with strong technical analysis or some kind of market worthy news.

Now, what the heck is a stock trading robot? Is it a Jetson like droid that waked up early to capture the opening bell for the dreary eyed profits? Well, not exactly. A good day trading robot is a unique blend of programming software combined with specific instructions to analyze data. When thousands of fields of data are imputed, the trading robot will output data in relation to its specific algorithm.

How can using a Day Trading Robot give anyone a stock trading advantage?

Just like a good team is nothing without a great coach, a swing trading robot is nothing without a winning formula. A "winning formula" is created by the portfolio manager, thus defining specific parameters that the software will read financial data. Great portfolio managers with a scientific knowledge equals outstanding outputs (stock picks) by the robot. The formulas are closely guarded secrets and extremely highly valued.

There is such a robot, and his name is MARL. Only letting public two recent stock picks, MARL has proven to be quite a valuable collection of code. With two day gains of more that 353% on one pick, and a four day profit of more than 50%, MARL has created quite a commotion.

MARL the day trading robot now works for the public trading sector. He has since retired from the corporate world to sow his seed of opportunity. Like the local Sunday paper boy, MARL now delivers his weekly stock pick on Sundays. Investors are now treated to an email alert containing their next winning short term stock.

Jason Kelly and Dr. James Holt are the software brain child and trading platform designer behind the day trading robot. They have been commended in the past for many achievements that were thought to be impossible. It is very curious what the future may hold, but I can guarantee that many thousands of people will be anxiously waiting by there computers for the next email alert.
