MIPS offers stock market timing models that use applied mathematics, hundreds of tried and proven technical indicators, pattern recognition, and artificial intellegence in its quantitative models to help you make money when the stock market trend is up (by being long) AND to protect and grow your nest egg when the market trend is going down (by being in an all cash position or by being short like hedge funds). The fundamental concepts of MIPS (Market Inflection Points Signals) are to identify "Inflection Points" where the market changes direction; and then to follow the new trend. 

For serious investors, this website explains:
    (a) why investors need a market timing system like MIPS,
    (b) what MIPS is,
    (c) how MIPS works, and
    (d) performance of the MIPS models (from TimerTrac.com "verified" since Nov 2005). 
If you follow the MIPS stock market trends and timing signals, MIPS should be the only trading system you will ever need to protect and to grow your investments.

MIPS is a tried and proven stock market timing system whose signals have been verified by TimerTrac.com for 12 years.  MIPS is an ideal model in that it has handily beaten buy-hold in ALL up and down market periods during that time. In fact, MIPS3 is the top ranked model (#1) on TimerTrac.com since 2007.

Inflection Points - Where trends change direction.

And yes, it really is as simple to use as 1-2-3. 
After Subscribing to MIPS under the main menu "Subscribe" tab , you will:
     1.) Receive "Signal Change" emails from MIPS (Long, Cash, or Short).
     2.) Place your trade on the next opportunity (usually the next day's market open)
     3.) Hold these positions until the next "Signal Change" email from MIPS.  
Repeat steps 1-3

MIPS3  (2016 - 04/05/2019)
(Trading SPY+SSO 1.5x Long / SH 0.5x Short)
Blue Line 1.5x Long / 0.5x Short...  +54%
   Red Line - SPY Buy/Hold  ............  +43%

Our MIPS3/MF model is the #1 Ranked Timing Model on TimerTrac.com since November, 2005
- Thus, the signals and graphs used below are verified by TimerTrac.com
- Our new "Blaster Series" models have better performance, with lower drawdowns (next section...)

Performance Graph - Buy-and-Hold vs. MIPS3 (original model)
Blue Line  ---  MIPS3.org  2.0x Long and 0.00x Short (Long Only)   -  Best Performer
Gold Line ---- MIPS3.org  1.50x Long and 0.50x Short (leverage)    -  MIPS Favorite
Green Line --- MIPS3.org  1.00x Long and 1.00x Short (leverage)   -  MIPS Standard
Red Line   ---  Buy-and-Hold

In the Market Crash of 2008 our MIPS3 timing model was "live" and it performed extremely well trading SPY 1.0x Long and SH 1.0x Short (no leverage).  MIPS3 was up 130% while the SPY was down 40%.  All MIPS3 trade signals and performance results below are "verified"  by TimerTrac.com.  Also, the backtested performance of our MIPS.org models show that they would have done well in the previous "real" market crashes (1987 and 2000).

GREAT NEWS FOR MIPS MEMBERS !!!
- Blaster Series Models were released in 1Q'16

We spent 15 months developing new quantitative algorithms that resulted in some of the very best market timing models on the market today. We call this version of our models the "Blaster Series".  The main contribution from Blaster is how our trend following models now handle "flat markets" (aka sideways trading patterns, consolidation patterns, etc.) that change direction every few days, but go nowhere.

The results*** are a developer's dream:
   1) the CAGR of the current Blaster models are 65% higher than its previous version, 
       and it's apporximately 2.5 times higher than our original version;
   2) the Maximum Drawdowns have been reduced by about 35%; and
   3) the average number of annual trades remained about the same as before.

Nothing on this website should be considered to be a recommendation to buy or sell securities. We are not financial advisors and do not offer investment advice. Our members should contact their financial advisors or accountants for said advice. Visitors must read and agree with our "Terms of Use" agreement and "Disclaimer" document prior to subscribing to our stock market timing service.

Most individual investors are taught to simply buy and hold, even in down markets. They are also told that (a) no one can time the market and (b) they should never consider short trades. And somehow, the SEC made it illegal for "retail" fund managers to execute short orders in their portfolios. But, everyone must have forgotten to tell the hedge fund managers this, as they have been making billions of dollars for the last 35 years.

MIPS Timing Systems, LLC, was formed to provide stock market timing signals for individual investors to help them make money in both bull markets and bear markets like the high-profile professional money managers do (that is, like hedge fund managers that can trade long and short as they see fit).

The MIPS Timing Systems models analyze the stock market and provide information to our members when the models issue buy, short, and/or cash "signals". The MIPS trading system uses the S&P 500 Exchange Traded Fund (ETF), the SPY Index Fund, to represent the market and uses SPY in one of its index trading strategies. MIPS is not for high frequency online trading or for day traders.

Most of the information regarding the stock market direction provided herein is derived from quantitative models and algorithms owned and developed by MIPS Timing Systems, LLC. These are made up of numerous technical indicators, some of which are published and some of which were developed in-house. These technical indicators are looking for new stock market trends and the exact time that the market changes its trend line from up-to-down or vice versa (i.e., an "inflection point" in the stock market trend line). This provides our members with new tools for timing the stock market and to better manage their stock market investments.
