Frequently Asked Questions regarding Auto-Trade
| Q: |
What is Auto-Trade? |
| A: |
As an account holder using our Auto-Trade Execution Service, you are authorizing
TradingBlock to execute the trade recommendations from your select
financial newsletter automatically on your behalf, in completely unbiased fashion.
TradingBlock and the financial newsletter services are unaffiliated,
separate companies.
|
| Q: |
How does Auto-Trade work? |
| A: |
TradingBlock receives a trade alert from a financial newsletter
specifying what specific stock, future or option to buy or sell. Our trade desk then
enters the recommended trade as a group trade for all TradingBlock
clients subscribed to the financial newsletter.
|
| Q: |
What financial newsletter is the best? |
| A: |
While TradingBlock works with several prominent financial newsletters,
we do not recommend any publisher. We do not have access to financial newsletter
track records or historical performance data. Our only suggestion is to inquire with
three or more newsletters to ensure that your financial goals are in line with the
newsletter you choose. Any reputable newsletter should be able to provide any
historical information that you request by contacting the publisher directly.
|
| Q: |
Once my Auto-Trade is set up, how can I make changes? |
| A: |
If at any point you would like to make changes to your Auto-Trade settings, such as
changing newsletters or the dollar allocation per trade, please contact
TradingBlock's Trade Desk. IMPORTANT: Auto-Trade changes can only be
accepted in writing via email, fax, overnight courier or US Mail. A phone call is not
sufficient to make any change in Auto-Trade settings.
