3.  Please note: Hypothetical computer simulated performance
results are believed to be accurately presented. However,
they are not guaranteed as to accuracy or completeness
and are subject to change without any notice. Hypothetical
or simulated performance results have certain inherent
limitations. Unlike an actual performance record,
simulated results do not represent actual trading. Since,
also, the trades have not actually been executed; the
results may have been under or over compensated for the
impact, if any, of certain market factors such as liquidity,
slippage and commissions. Simulated trading programs in
general are also subject to the fact that they are designed
with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being
made that any portfolio will, or is likely to achieve profits
or losses similar to those shown. All investments and
trades carry risks.”

5.  The ROCK is a trading strategy that was extracted from the Checkmate
Trading System which utilizes the ROCK along with the M3, the Bearish
Butterfly and several other techniques to give you the ability to adapt
your trading to anticipated market conditions.
 The ROCK Trade is shown as a standalone position that may be used as
a regularly traded 30 day, concept based, market neutral strategy.
 The ROCK’s main purpose to give you most of the “mechanics” needed
to get you to a competency level where, you will be able to trade the
M21 Checkmate Trade.
 The ROCK is considerably more complex than the M3 trade, and it
requires previous knowledge of both the M3 and Bearish Butterfly Trades
 It is NOT for beginners.

6.  The most unique thing about the ROCK Trade is
that it utilizes multiple configurations and it
swaps back and forth between those
configurations as market conditions and DTE
change.
 The trade is actually 6 trades in one!
 Based on the results of a test, the trade will be
entered in, or adjusted to, the configuration or
trade that is most likely to give us a high
probability of a successful outcome.

7.  This program should be used only after both the
Bearish Butterfly and M3 Trade concepts are
thoroughly understood as it builds on those concepts
and adds multiple new concepts to help further our
knowledge of how complex options spreads react.
 Designed to bring us to a place of understanding
where we can get AWAY from rule sheets and think
on our own
 Prepares us for the next level where we will create our
own high probability positions with custom rules
based on what is happening in the market.
