How the Automated Profit System Works:

Mainscale APS™

  • Uses scale trading for any market condition
  • Portfolio management takes just 15 minutes per day
  • Pre-established entry, buy and sell positions
  • Scale bottom multiplier determines the number of shares to trade
  • Diversification maximizes investment potential

Mainscale APS™ is a revolutionary investment system developed to profit from the short term gyrations of an individual stock regardless of the longer term trend of the stock or market. Simply place the initial buy order for each stock at the price stated in the newsletter. Once an order is executed, place the additional buy and sell orders exactly as instructed…it's that simple!

By using Buy and Sell Limit Orders GTC (Good 'Til Cancel) your orders will remain entered for days and weeks until the stock reaches the specified price. Only then do you enter a new limit order GTC. This allows you to make money investing in stocks without being tied to a computer screen all day…it’s total freedom!

Scale trading is an investment discipline in which one buys and sells a particular equity at predetermined levels. Buying typically begins at the bottom of a trading range for selected stocks. Additional purchases are made at predetermined buy points if the stock continues lower. Using a last-in / first-out sell method (LIFO) allows you to begin selling your cheapest position first as the stock begins to rebound. You are always in position to profit from a stock moving up from any level when you sell your cheapest buy position first …it just makes sense! ~ Marc Barhonovich

Mainscale APS™ uses proprietary algorithms to select companies trading at or near historical levels below the norm. Factors considered include book value, cash on hand, BETA(a measure of a stock's volatility), relative strength compared to other companies in their industry, insider buys and/or sells and much more. The Mainscale APS™ is not unlike targeting value buys on oversold stocks EXCEPT we don't buy and hold. The Mainscale APS™ buys and sells and makes money on our stock selections regardless of the stocks overall direction…even if the stock ends up trading lower then when we set up our initial purchase position…it works in any market!
