While our core signals and process are built around higher-conviction, momentum-driven trading (often with a swing to medium-term horizon on Grade A assets), Vector Ridge also offers two dedicated products designed specifically for long-term investing.
These allow you to build lasting wealth with a more passive, compounded approach—complementing the trading side if you want both active alpha and buy-and-hold growth.
LONG TERM ALPHA
This product provides a curated selection of individual stocks chosen for long-term holding (typically years to decades). Each stock meets strict criteria:
- Fundamentally strong: healthy balance sheets, consistent profitability, competitive moats, and growth potential
- In a clear uptrend: price action is the primary filter (trend trumps pure fundamentals; we never buy strong companies in downtrends)
- Positive macro alignment: supportive sector themes, economic cycles, or policy tailwinds
Stocks are added when conditions are ideal and removed only if fundamentals deteriorate or the long-term trend breaks. The goal is simple: buy exceptional companies at reasonable times and let compounding do the heavy lifting.
HOW TO USE IT
- Review the current Long Term Alpha list in the app/product dashboard
- Allocate according to your overall portfolio goals (e.g., 50-80% of your investable capital for true long-term)
- Use dollar-cost averaging on new additions or rebalances
- Hold through volatility—drawdowns are expected in strong uptrends
- Combine with lifecycle investing principles (leverage younger, de-risk closer to retirement) for optimal risk-adjusted exposure
PORTFOLIO PRO
This is real-time, full-transparency access to my personal trading and investing portfolio—the exact positions, allocations, and decisions that have driven my audited World Cup Trading Championships results (3rd place finisher in 2025). You get my World Cup Championship trades in real time, as they happen.
You'll see:
- My complete current holdings across stocks, commodities, currencies, and other assets
- Real-time asset allocation (e.g., % in equities vs. gold vs. cash)
- Every new decision as it happens: entries, exits, adds, trims, and the full reasoning (macro view, technical setup, risk considerations)
- How I blend the algorithmic signals, Grade A filtering, and discretionary macro overlays in practice
HOW TO USE IT
- Mirror the portfolio directly: copy positions and sizing (adjusted to your account size and risk tolerance)
- Learn by example: study why I enter/exit, how I manage drawdowns, and how I adapt to changing market regimes
- Use it as your core portfolio or as a benchmark to compare against your own ideas
- For serious investors/traders: this is the fastest way to "stand on the shoulders" of a proven, audited process without building everything from scratch
Portfolio Pro is especially powerful for those who want to:
- Achieve similar returns to my competition results
- Shorten the learning curve dramatically by seeing real-world application daily
- Blend long-term holds with opportunistic trades—all in one transparent view
Both products integrate seamlessly with the broader Vector Ridge app (research tab, market notes, signals) so you can see how trading opportunities fit alongside your long-term positions.
WHICH SHOULD YOU CHOOSE?
If your primary goal is wealth compounding over decades rather than frequent trading, start with Long Term Alpha for simplicity.
If you want to learn directly from live, high-performance decision-making (and potentially replicate championship-level results), Portfolio Pro is the premium choice.
Whichever you choose, the philosophy remains the same: focus on quality over quantity, respect trends and macro, and let time and discipline turn small edges into substantial wealth.
