Title: Other sites similar to SSP Post by: Accruer on October 12, 2010, 10:55:55 PM Are there other sites similar to SSP, focusing on Canadian stocks? I don't think I've seen even one site, other than SSP, where they show you all the historical stock picks and past performance up front. They always wanted my email address (hello spammers) or wanted to charge a subscription fee (no confidence in their own system?).

Title: Re: Other sites similar to SSP Post by: garilou on October 29, 2010, 03:01:49 AM Accruer,
I don't know why you come here to ask if there is another one that would better suit your needs. I am not a big forum hunter: apart from here, I am a member of a programming forum, a gardening forum, an equestrian forum: I have never seen a request like that, and it bothers me a little bit. So, exactly what you were looking for? Good for you! Like Bryan said, very (I would say somewhat) similar to SSP, cheeply built with Yahoo site builder, (and I would add similar to http://www.superstockscreener.com/ for American stock created also by one of our SSPs.) They also have a TSX timing, but just BUY and SELL. They give suggestions for shorts, which I might like, but only when the signal is "SELL". You buy their suggestions and hold until the signal falls to "SELL". No "Sell" orders in between. No system to help you choose which level of risk you are ready to take. I did not see that they send email alerts, which is not so important: visiting the site once a while is not so difficult. If you read the section "Our thinking", you might want to think twice... And I have not seen that you can communicate with the site owner like you can here! The main common point is that it is free! But Accruer, unless you have your own portfolio building system to decide how many shares to buy from each stock, you could try to study the SSP system. It is not easy, but worth it! I know that not too many people here use it strictly, but it does make a difference! Disclosure: I am NOT mandated by SSP to defend their site, I have had arguments with them once in a while, but it is their site.

I'm rather surprised that you were bothered by my comment. I'd understand if this was a pay site and discussion of commercial competitors wouldn't be allowed. Actually I do have a portfolio strictly following SSP v4+ starting this year, with the proper allocation and all, and I'm very happy with the results. In fact I'm impressed with this kind of systematic trading which takes emotion out of the equation. I couldn't help but wonder if more (freely published) systems exist out there. Title: Re: Other sites similar to SSP Post by: garilou on October 29, 2010, 04:57:09 PM Sorry if I did not understand your: "Exactly what I was looking for." properly.
For me it was not a matter of paying or free, allowed or forbidden. The only thing that are not allowed here are posts strictly promoting other sites, porn, and (sorry I still have a small "dropping on the heart" :translation from French, ) a few words of French in an English forum... like to congratulate some one. Maybe I replied to fast, without reading your previous posts before. I have previously been very active on this forum, but not at all since many months. Whish you good luck with your SSP portfolio: I do not think so many of us do use it strictly. Bravo (this is not French but Italian so I guess it is allowed) if you make it! Louise |
