General Information TOP

Product name: VantagePoint Trading Software
Initial Price: $2,900
Brief product description: 

VantagePoint's patented technology has been forecasting market trends with up to 86% accuracy since 1991. Using Artificial Intelligence technologies (artificial neural networks applied to technical analysis and intermarket analysis), VantagePoint finds hidden patterns and relationships between 25-31 related markets and the target market to analyze and forecast price movements for more than 600 global markets each day. The ability to examine the effects of markets on one another has become critical to successful trading in today's highly volatile, globally-interconnected markets, where single-market methods of analysis, particularly trend-following, lagging approaches, have become dangerously outdated. The latest VantagePoint Trading Software provides new options, customizability, and predictive technical indicators. VantagePoint's ProfitCalc feature displays the dollar value associated with the difference between prices. This feature makes calculating potential profits - and risk analysis - even easier. VantagePoint's Intelliscan feature is a time-saving screening tool that helps identify potential trading opportunities based on over 60 criteria which can be customized to suit specific trading styles. This makes it possible to perform sophisticated intermarket analysis on the markets in order to quickly identify the most profitable trades. VantagePoint now has additional predicted technical indicators including Predictive MACD, Predictive Stochastic, Predictive Relative Strength Index (RSI), True Strength Index (TSI) and VantagePoint's proprietary Neural Index. For clarity, each predicted indicator is displayed in a separate area and has its own associated heading and scale. VantagePoint predicts the True Strength Indicator one trading day in advance. The Predicted True Strength Index Indicator is a powerful momentum indicator that can help predict overbought or oversold market conditions, which is especially important given the current state of the economy and market volatility. Updated neural networks have also been included to accommodate changing market conditions and all markets now include retrained neural networks for the Predicted High and Predicted Low.
