The Risk-Managed Energy Model is a longer-term low-activity Model whose goal is to identify and invest in longer-term uptrends in Energy, while managing the risk of investing in this highly volatile market by identifying and avoiding its longer-term downtrends. Trends are identified by the proprietary Energy ASTROTREND. When Energy is in a downtrend, funds are invested in a non-Energy model.
When the Risk-Managed Energy Mode's ASTROTREND is positive (above zero), 100% of funds are invested in shares of XLE, an energy sector ETF. When the Energy ASTROTREND is negative (below zero), 100% of funds are invested in the DELTA-V+Calendar model.

The strategies employed may involve technical trading techniques such as trend analysis, relative strength, moving averages, various momentum and related strategies. Technical trading models utilize mathematical algorithms to attempt to identify when markets are likely to increase or decrease and identify appropriate entry and exit points. The primary risk of technical trading models is that historical trends and past performance cannot predict future trends and there is no assurance that the mathematical algorithms employed are designed properly, new data is accurately incorporated, or the software can accurately predict future market, industry and sector performance.
