1. What is ManusRisco ™ ?

 ManusRisco ™ is the only money management software which manages trading activity similar to a successful business, using proven business management models.

 ManusRisco ™ uses the following methodology to provide you with the information required to trade  professionally, confidently and profitably :

  • Create a Business Organization which segregates trading performance into meaningful  “businesslike” enterprises (Profit Centers ) which reflect your trading methodology.

  • Update the Business Organization with each day’s completed trades.

  • Produce Analysis Reports which contain key money management statistics for the Business Organization.

  • Use the Analysis Reports to

    • Identify positive and negative expectation situations as well as their trend.

    • Capitalize on trading strengths and strive to eliminate trading weaknesses

    • Establish and manage the Reward / Risk profile for new trades

    • Utilize a professional and structured money management methodology to engender confidence, foster trading discipline and increase the probability of achieving long term profitability.

    • Return to the second step ( Update the Business Organization ....) and start the process over again.

For those of you who have any type of business experience, you will probably recognize that the above steps are performed by every successful business, whether it’s a large corporation or small mom and pop corner grocery store.

In essence, the above money management methodology is the framework for the operation and management of your trading activities as a successful business.

The ManusRisco™ Business Organization consists of Profit Centers which can be custom designed to monitor your particular style of trading. The Analysis Reports are then run on the Profit Centers to provide the information required to make confident, disciplined and educated trading decisions.

ManusRisco™ is designed to not only monitor your trading performance, but also manage your trading business in such a manner that you will be able to make more educated and confident trading decisions.

Without a structured money management framework, it is  very difficult for most traders to achieve long term profitability in today's difficult, volatile and highly competitive trading environment.

 

2. What ManusRisco ™ is not !

  • ManusRisco™ is not a trading system or a program which develops and back tests historical price data to develop trading systems

  • ManusRisco™ is not a real time data feed or real time trading system

  • ManusRisco™ is not a brokerage type accounting program which calculates complex trading Account balances, tax liabilities incurred by trading activities, margin requirements or other back office accounting functions.

  • ManusRisco™ is not a trading system which determines what futures or stocks to trade

  • ManusRisco™  is not a program which scans thousands of futures or stocks, looking for profitable trading opportunities

  • ManusRisco™ is not a portfolio management program which keeps track of various positions you may have in the stock market.

  • ManusRisco™ is not a program which pays your bills, balances your check book, keeps track of your financial investments,  etc.

  • ManusRisco  Inc, or any of its principals, do  not manage funds for investment or speculative purpose, do not provide financial planning services, do  not provide trading advice, do  not sell any form or type of trading system or methodology and do  not recommend the purchase or sale of any type of security or trading instrument.

 

3. What are the benefits of using ManusRisco ™ ?

There are three disciplines every trader must master to achieve long term profitability playing the trading game :

  • Trading methodology

  • Psychological development

  • Money management

Most traders emphasize the trading methodology component of speculation and constantly search for new and exotic trading techniques or systems.

Unfortunately, in the long run, the trading methodology you utilize will not be the determining factor in deciding whether you will be a success or a failure at the trading game.

You must be able to integrate all three of the above disciplines into your personality in order to achieve long term trading success.  ManusRisco ™ primarily addresses the discipline of  money management, however diligent use of  ManusRisco ™  will also advance the trader up the trading methodology and psychological development learning curves.

As you proceed through the Trial version and Manual, you will begin to realize how the ManusRisco ™ Business Organization model and Analysis Reports are designed to engender a professional, businesslike and disciplined trading environment.........leading to more confident and profitable trading decisions.

ManusRisco ™ is designed to analyze your trading methodologies and pinpoint the trading strengths and weakness of your trading systems.......as well as provide the information required to make confident and educated trading decisions.

The end result is a trader who is better able to master the financial and psychological challenges confronting him on a daily basis in the highly competitive trading arena.  

 

4. Which Exchanges, futures and/or stocks can be used with ManusRisco ™ ?  Can ManusRisco ™ be used with FOREX trades ?

Any future, Index or stock traded on any Exchange such as the FOREX, NASDAQ, GLOBEX, NYSE, DAX, FTSE etc can be entered into ManusRisco ™

Using ManusRisco's easy to use Symbol screen, you are able to add the Symbol of any future, stock or Index traded on any Exchange. The Manual explains how to enter a Symbol traded on the FOREX.

 

5. Can options be entered into ManusRisco ™ ?

Only simple options trades such as buying calls or puts or selling naked call or puts can be entered into ManusRisco ™ since those trades are handled exactly like buying or selling the future or stock.

Complex option trades such as straddles, spreads, covered calls, covered puts, etc can not be entered into ManusRisco™
