Q: What makes ITTI’s approach to
systems trading unique?
A: As all experienced traders know, there is no perfect
system that will consistently make profit. Countless factors
contribute to market changes: price, volatility, news,
shortages, wars, interest rates, etc. Some systems work in a
bull market, some in a bear market, while others do best
during a choppy market. We believe that in a constantly
changing market, your system should be able to change too.
ITTI has created multiple systems that accommodate a wide
variety of different markets and conditions. ITTI enables
you to smoothly and easily change from one strategy to
another.****
Q: How does an automated trading system work?
A: The system is constantly factoring hundreds of market
variables, as well as account size and risk tolerance level;
by utilizing this information, the system identifies the
most statistically desirable trades. The system dynamically
selects and executes trade orders in the financial markets.
Q: Who will manage my account?
A: You will. We do not have Power of Attorney (POA) over
your account. We give you automated tools (strategies) to
manage your own account "hands free.*"
Q: How do I choose a system?
A: We publish a list of the Monthly Top 5 Trading Systems
as well as the Top 5 Yearly Trading Systems as a guideline
to help you determine the system that will work best for
you. We do not make any trading recommendations, but instead
let the hypothetical results of our systems speak for
themselves. Based on account size and risk tolerance level,
you may choose one or several systems to trade from this
list, and change the system(s) on your account as often as
you like.**** You make the final decision as to what trading
system works best for you.
Q: How often does the Top Systems lists update?
A: The Top Monthly Systems are updated weekly on Sunday.
The Top Systems of the Year are updated once a month.
Q: How many automated trading systems does ITTI have?
A: We currently have 60+** systems available, and are working
to create even more.
Q: What is the minimum account size to trade using ITTI
systems?
A: $4000 - $5000.
Q: How much is the maximum drawdown?
A: Every system on our list is different: they trade
different markets, have different risk/reward ratios, and
require different account sizes. You can manage and set your
daily account risk to any reasonable level. Remember, the
general rule: “The higher risk you take, the higher
potential for profit or loss.” However, we highly recommend
that you set a daily loss and monitor your system on a
regular basis.
Q: How do I run the system within my trading platform?
A: The Global Strategy Trader and Strategy Runner platforms
have a built in feature that allows you to set and run any
chosen system on the platform indefinitely. If you would
like to run a system on a DEMO platform, you can call our
office for help.
Q: After I start running the system on my platform, what
else do I have to do?
A: Nothing. After the trading strategy is running, the
system automatically takes you in and out of the market,
creating a “hands free*” trading experience. We suggest that
you check the system’s performance once per week, and adjust
the systems on your account based on the current week
recommendations.
Q: What if my own analysis is different from the system?
A: Our systems have been designed to be easily turned on or
off, in an instant, so you will always be in control. You
may, for example, in one click, take profit/loss on your
current strategy position, and then allow the strategy to
resume, creating new trades and positions.
Q: What if I don’t have time to update my system
regularly?
A: You can send us a request using this form and we will
automatically update to your desired system(s). We offer
dynamic automated system management for the price of
discount service!
Q: What if I like your systems and want to share this
opportunity with others?
Do you have an affiliate program?
A: Yes, ITTI offers both. For our affiliates and business
partners we offer up to 40% payouts. Click here to become
our affiliate.
Q: What if I need help setting up my systems? I’m still
confused what strategy to trade. I don’t know how to
allocate my money among the strategies.
A: We have futures/forex brokers as well as a registered
Commodity Trading Advisor available daily during trading
market hours to provide FREE consultations to all of our
clients and prospects: "Customer satisfaction is our top

In fact, there are frequently sharp differences between

One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results
is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of

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 account for in the preparation of hypothetical
performance results and all of which can adversely affect
actual trading results.
International Technical Trading Institute, LLC has had
little or no experience in trading actual accounts for
itself or for customers. Because there are no actual trading
results to compare to the hypothetical performance results
customers should be particularly wary of placing undue
reliance on these hypothetical performance results.
