He’s also a public speaker and teacher and has presented over 2,000 financial seminars and workshops in all 50 states in the U.S. and other parts of the English-speaking world.

And that’s why he started the…

The Grail Investing membership site

This is your opportunity to learn what works in the world of investing and trading. You will not be sold expensive courses. You will not be sold expensive coaching. You will not need an expensive financial advisor or planner.

You will learn how to use profitable investment and trading strategies taught by someone who has spent decades learning — not only by trial and error — but from some of the most knowledgeable financial experts in the world.

In other words, you will have an experienced professional show you the way for a fraction of the money you would have to spend to get that kind of personal attention elsewhere.

Does that sound better than reading books or subscribing to expensive one-size-fits-all investment web sites? It should sound a lot better.

Here’s a brief overview of the profitable investing and trading strategies we’re currently using…

The COT Strategy

The Commitments of Traders (COT) strategy is based on the weekly Commitments of Traders reports released by the U.S. Commodity Trading Commission every Friday (except holidays) for positions as of the previous Tuesday.

It’s based on the theory that big commercial participants in futures markets are the “smart money.” They are the ones “in the know.” They tend to have bullish futures positions when markets are relatively cheap and they tend to have bearish positions when markets are relatively expensive.

The idea is to buy when the smart money is historically bullish and sell when they are historically bearish. The time frame for this strategy is a period of a few months to a couple of years.

The Long Term Timing Strategy

This strategy is based on a white paper written by Mebane Faber of World Beta. The idea is to only be in the stock market — or any market — when it is in a long-term bullish trend and to be out of the market when it is in a long-term bearish trend. It keeps you out of market disasters such as the one we saw in 2008 and ensures that you will be in the market during great times like we saw during 1995-2000.

It is great for  retirement plans like 401(k)s and IRAs, or if you prefer to keep at least some of your money in long-term investments.

The time frame for this strategy can be as long as several years.

The RSI Reversal Strategy

This strategy is based on the theory that markets tend to trend over the intermediate and long-term, but revert to the mean over the very short-term. So we look to buy an oversold security within an upward trend. And then we sell on the bounce. This is a short-term strategy with an average time frame of about five or six calendar days.

A word about performance

The cumulative total return and compound annual growth rate (not considering taxes and transaction costs) of each Grail Investing strategy is prominently displayed on the right sidebar of this site. Returns are updated at least weekly and sometimes more often that that.

We don’t play games with performance. In other words, we don’t cherry pick investments that have done particularly well and display only them while ignoring the ones that haven’t done as well. We show you what the performance is during good times and bad.

We have faith that you realize that web sites and services that claim unrealistic performance numbers are just that — unrealistic. We want members to stay around over the long haul. And the only way to achieve that goal is to shoot straight with you. You can count on us to be truthful.

How much does it cost to be a member?

Your membership fee is a very low…

$12/month

Or if you prefer to pay annually you can do so at a discounted fee of…

$110/year

(a 24% savings equivalent to a little over $9/month)

And if you join now your membership fee will be $12/month or $110/year as long as you’re a member.

Fair enough?

And to make this easier for you here’s our unconditional, ironclad, no-questions-asked guarantee…
