A fully rules-based system means all of the buy and sell decisions are pre-determined and based on extensive historical market testing. There’s no gut feel or subjective analysis – the system contains all of the rules to make the best decisions possible.

There are many benefits of fully rules-based trading:

• Decisions are based on real research and extensive testing of historical markets
• 100% discipline, the system always executes flawlessly
• No emotional biases
• The strategy is easily measurable and can be enhanced over time

What makes Lamorak extra special is that it was built by a trader first.

Evan’s market observations and live trading for over a decade are at the core of Lamorak's decision making process. That means Lamorak is not just applying random and impossible to explain mathematical theory, instead, it’s a simple system based on how markets really work.

No, absolutely not.

We’re doing all of the heavy lifting and number crunching for you. Internally, we have the Lamorak algorithm running in real-time measuring and monitoring markets and systematically producing signals.

As a subscriber, all you need to do is log in to your Trade Risk dashboard each night to see what the trading system has generated for signals. You can follow along at your own pace and place orders with any broker of your choosing.

Lamorak is a long/short algorithm that takes advantage of volatility when stocks have moved too far and too fast in one direction. It is unlike most trading strategies because it doesn't need strong healthy uptrends to make money. This is a tactical swing trading system that does best during sideways markets and high volatility. 

Lamorak trades large cap liquid stocks in the Nasdaq 100 and S&P100 indices. All signals are generated using daily closing prices. That means you won't have to watch markets throughout the trading day. You can place all of your Lamorak orders after the market closes and be fully prepared for the next session.

Lamorak has a smaller edge per trade relative to our Merlin trading system, but since it turns over trades much faster, it's able to complete nearly 3 trades by the time Merlin finishes one.

The strategy has been backtested and validated across thousands of individual stocks with careful considerations not to data mine or overfit. Lamorak is the newest strategy in our line up, running live since 2020.

Yes and no.

When you become a Lamorak subscriber, you'll learn about our easy to follow position sizing guide, which you can easily modify to make sure you don't use any margin in your account.

However, since Lamorak shorts stocks, which requires margin, you will not be able to participate in short signals if you're trading in a retirement or cash settled account since shorting (margin) is not allowed. 

Lamorak is a professional trading strategy that focuses on producing strong risk-adjusted returns. It’s designed to scale and handle large account sizes. 

Account minimums are a personal decision and will vary greatly from trader to trader depending on your circumstances, goals, and risk tolerance. As a general guideline, Trade Risk has found account sizes that are $50,000 or more will get the most out of a Lamorak trading membership.

We offer a fourteen day $1 trial to our trading system so you can take them for a test drive to make sure they live up to your expectations. There are no auto-enrollments or strings attached. The trial will end automatically after fourteen days.

We recommend all new users start with the $1 trial.
