In February 2012, we merged the individual stock picks of the former MTG Stalk Sheet newsletter with the ETF picks of The Wagner Daily newsletter. Therefore, Wagner Daily performance figures prior to that date are based on ETF trades only. However, the MTG Stalk Sheet stock picks newsletter had a very similar track record to the ETF picks, which you can view by clicking here.
Below is a performance summary of all trades since inception of The Wagner Daily in October 2002. Note that the returns for the most recent quarter may include the "marked to market" value of all open positions as of the last completed month of each quarter (shown in the last column). The difference in actual closing prices for open positions will be adjusted when positions are closed in the following month.

NOTE: Model account size was $25,000 prior to August 1, 2005, then $50,000 through the end of 2011. In 2012, we began using two separate $50,000 model accounts that are added and averaged together (one for swing trading stock picks and one for ETF picks). Despite the changes in model account size over the years, the percentage gains and losses remain accurate because trade size was always adjusted to reflect current model account size.

Hypothetical results - The performance results and share sizes reported are hypothetical and for educational purposes only. The goal is for a trader to learn how to properly manage risk in their own accounts. Unlike the actual performance record of the Morpheus Capital hedge fund, these hypothetical results do not represent actual trading. Realistic execution prices are used, but trades have not actually been executed. Therefore, results may vary due to market factors including lack of 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 account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those reported. Morpheus Trading Group may or may not have actual positions in the ETF and stock trades it presents to subscribers. Similarly, the Morpheus Capital hedge fund is typically positioned in many more trades than are actually presented to newsletter subscribers.
