WHAT IS THE iDayo™ SYSTEM & WHAT'S IT GOING TO DO FOR ME?
It's a unique subscription web site that provides you with unique financial content about stocks almost every week. Correct stock picks can make you a winner regardless of market conditions. Top
WHEN DO I BUY THE STOCKS YOU POST ON THE SITE & WHEN DO I SELL THEM?
We suggest that you buy the stocks within the first week of when they are posted to the site. Then sell them after 16 weeks. Place 20% stop on each stock as soon as it is purchased. Therefore, you should plan to invest the same amount of money weekly into each stock (usually 3 to 5 individual stocks) for a 16-week period. Please note that the iDayo™ system may not have a portfolio every week. Top
HOW MUCH SHOULD I INVEST EACH WEEK INTO THE MARKET?
Because we are not registered stock brokers, financial planners, money managers or a registered investment advisory firm we can not tell you how much to invest into each stock weekly. However, the historical performance of the iDayo™ system is based on investing the same dollar amount of money each week into every stock. As an example, if a subscriber decided to invest $100 a week into each stock listed on the iDayo™ system, and there were 3 stocks listed on the Indicator that week, they would invest $100 into each stock. Likewise, if there were 5 stocks listed on the Indicator the next week, they would invest $100 into each stock. Therefore, the number of share purchased in each company will vary, but the dollar amount should be the same. Top
HOW DO I FOLLOW THE iDayo™ SYSTEM WHEN I BUY AND SELL MY STOCKS?
Go to www.iDayo.com and click SUBSCRIBER LOGIN. After you enter your User Name, you will be taken to the Subscriber Page. As you scroll down the page, the current 'open' portfolios are listed. A portfolio is the name given to any group of stocks recommended by iDayo™ for each week. An average of three new portfolios are posted each month. An 'open' portfolio is one in which the stocks are still being held by iDayo. Once the stocks reach the 16th week, they are sold, and now considered to be 'closed' portfolios. You can view all the closed portfolios back to 1998 by choosing 'closed' from the drop-down menu.

When you log in any time after 9AM on Monday, you will look at the list of open portfolios to see if there is a new portfolio for this week. The date listed beside each portfolio will be the previous Friday, because the stocks are chosen using Friday's closing data. Just click on the portfolio to see the new stocks that have been posted. There will be 3-5 stocks. Print that page out and proceed to your broker's website.

What you'll do now is determine how many shares of each stock you want to buy. We suggest placing 2.5% of your portfolio in each stock. This will ensure you won't run out of money to buy stocks over the 16 weeks. (You will hold an average of 30 - 40 stocks at any given time). Assuming a total portfolio of $20,000 that will be used to invest in iDayo™ stocks, 2.5% of $20,000 is $500 that would be invested in each stock. Then you'll want to divide $500 by the current price of the stock, which is listed on the sheet of paper you just printed off. When you've done this for each stock, you'll have the data you need to go to your broker with: stock symbol and number of shares. If you are using an online discount broker you can then place your order.

When you login to your broker, you are really telling your broker four primary things:

  1. I want to BUY;
  2. I want to buy XYZ stock;
  3. I want to buy ## shares of XYZ stock;
  4. I want this order to be good until cancelled;


There really is only one other thing the broker will want to know:

Is this a 'market' or 'limit' order? Market order means 'buy the stock right now, whatever the price'. This is what I do 99% of the time because I'm not day trading. A limit order is where you say, "I will buy XYZ stock at or below $5.50 a share". Using iDayo™ there is really no need to enter those limit orders when you are buying.

You enter the appropriate order for each stock. As soon as you own all the stocks (a matter of 60 seconds or so), they will be listed in your balance of assets. Now you want to enter the LIMIT orders to sell the stocks. This is your downside protection. For example, if the stock is currently at $10, we recommend selling if it ever reaches $8. The way a STOP order works is when the stock reaches $8; the order is entered automatically as a MARKET order. That means you may sell for $8, for more than $8, or for less than $8. This is the type of order I use. I do not try to squeeze the pennies out of the order because for me it is not worth risking staying in the stock just to get $8 instead of $7.99. If you want to define the price you will sell at, you will use STOP LIMIT order, which works like this; "I want to sell this stock if it ever reaches $8, and I will sell it for as little as $7.75". This prevents your order from getting sold at some dramatically lower price, something that is theoretically possible but has never happened to me. So, you'll either enter a SELL STOP order and enter $8 and the number of shares of the stock, or, you'll enter a SELL STOP LIMIT order, in which case you'll enter $8, then $7.50 for the LIMIT price, and the number of shares of stock. By doing this for each stock you just bought, you're protecting yourself in the event a) we're wrong, b) the company announces some disaster, or c) the market moves down over the 16 weeks and the stock goes down 20%. The only other thing the broker will want to know is how long your order is good for; you'll choose GTC or Good Till Cancelled, which simply means to keep the order on the books until you cancel the order!

Now, you're done for the week. Next week you'll repeat the same process. If you don't end up doing it until later in the day on Monday, or even Tuesday, it's no big deal. This is a 4-month trade, not a one-day deal, and one day hasn't shown to make a difference.

Now, assume it's week 16. When you log in, you'll notice that the portfolio that is first (at the bottom) on the list in your iDayo™ backoffice is flashing/blinking. That means it's time to sell. Click on that portfolio, and print the page. You will then take this to your broker to sell your stocks. When you log in, you'll do one of two things. Either you'll cancel the open sell orders (the STOP or STOP LIMIT orders you placed when you bought them 16 weeks before), or you'll edit those orders to sell them at the MARKET price. I do the second. I edit the SELL STOP order to SELL MARKET order and click submit. The stock will be sold in a matter of seconds and you're done.

Don't forget, you may have stocks to buy this week as well, which means the money, which had been invested in the stocks in week 1, is now ready to be reinvested in week 17; the stocks you just sold are funding the purchases of the new portfolio and you're keeping that money in the market.

After a few months, assuming profitability, you'll want to re-evaluate your portfolio, and see whether or not you need to increase your purchase size. For example, let's say your portfolio is now up to $25,000; instead of buying $500 worth of stock, you'll want to buy $625 worth of stock. By doing this you will compound your returns and advance the speed at which the money will grow.

WHY DOES THE INDICATOR METHOD WORK?
It's such a rare event to find a BUYING CONSENSUS among the funds. Typically, in any quarter only 40 stocks out of 10,000 will have a STRONG BUYING CONSENSUS. These stocks are the proverbial "needle in a haystack". Because these stocks are being HEAVILY accumulated by the mutual funds and private institutional funds, they are strong candidates for a sharp rise in price, as can be seen below in our annualized returns. Top
HOW DOES THE INDICATOR FIND STOCKS?
We analyze the net buying and selling of individual stocks held by over 6,000 mutual funds and private institutional funds. By crunching all this data, we are able to find the handful of stocks that many funds are buying and few are selling. Top
ISN'T ONE GOOD EXPERT OPINION ENOUGH?
How about all those experts and professionals on TV with their opinions? Well, one person's opinion is interesting but is not good indicator of demand for a stock. In contrast the Indicator tracks where the experts are ACTUALLY PUTTING THEIR MONEY. Top
WHY DO I NEED ALL THESE PROFESSIONAL OPINIONS?
  • The Bible says in Proverbs 24:6, "In a multitude of counselors there is safety."
  • First of all, you will rest easier knowing that numerous professionals are behind you when you invest in a stock.
  • Secondly, if you could poll all the funds to find out what they are buying and selling you would essentially have 6,000 professionals working directly for you.
  • Lastly, you get a REAL BUYING CONSENSUS in seconds. It's a rare occurrence for the fund professionals to actually agree and come to a BUY SIDE CONSENSUS on a particular stock.
Top
HOW MANY STOCKS GET VERY HIGH RATINGS?
Only 75 stocks out of the thousands that trade on the U.S. exchanges have a STRONG BUYING CONSENSUS in any given quarter. We post the best of the best, or about 3 to 5 stocks, on the site almost every Monday morning by 9AM. Top
WHAT DO I GET WHEN I SUBSCRIBE?
  • A successful system that has worked for over ten years - regardless of market conditions.
  • The stocks that are posted on the site almost every week.
  • View the iDayo™ system rating and historical ratings on stocks of your choice. We rate over 10,000 stocks.
  • View the performance of all our posted stocks for the 16 week time frame vs. the performance of the Nasdaq, S&P 500 and Russell 2000 indices.

WHAT ARE THE DETAILS OF THE ANALYSIS?
The iDayo™ system uses a proprietary formula that takes into account the importance of each institutional change in position, assessing factors such as:
  • The number of shares of the stock bought or sold during the latest quarter.
  • Whether the fund's position in the stock is new, increased, unchanged, decreased, or eliminated.
  • The size of the position change relative to the size of the fund.
  • The rank of the stock within the fund.
Top
HOW LONG WILL A RATING LAST?
Once a stock is posted, you should hold it until the suggested 16 week holding period has passed. Once iDayo™ has a positive breakout rating on a particular stock, it is so significant that neutral or bearish ratings in the following quarters are not usually an indication of weakness. Top
