Financial Survival Plan Surges 31% for August
7 September 2011
We believe that a large measure of the success of the Survival Plan comes from it's diversification. It is composed of 3 programs trading 13 commodities markets and in 3 different time frames. The S&P day-trading program broke even for August, the median term Currency Basket closed out profitable positions in the Franc and Yen which were both trends to the up side since June. Both currencies were used as safe havens by global investors who were steering away from the US dollar and the Euro because of debt issues. The program picked up on these trends on a break out signal and exited with trailing stops. The net profit for the Currency Basket for the month was +$16,931.66.

The medium to long term Diversified Commodity Basket captured nice profits in the Crude of +$8,154.34 trading the market from the short side. The Sugar market made a nice up move and we made a profit of +$3,500. Not all trades are winners but the Survival Plan cuts losses short and lets profits run. Losses in the Copper and Soybeans cost us a combined total of almost -$2,800.

The Survival Plan holds 30% of the required margin in gold or gold futures. We continue to believe that paper currencies will be further debased in the coming months and years. A 33 ounce mini gold increased +$6,649.96 in open trade equity in August.
We invite you to take a look at a compelling video produced by the Chicago Mercantile Exchange on how the addition of managed futures programs like the Survival Plan can lower risk and increase profitability to the standard stock and bond portfolio.
