A position management model
When to buy more and when to take profit — by rule, not by mood
Symtick is a mathematical model for managing a stock position. You enter the current price — the service tells you what to do: buy, sell or wait, and exactly how many lots. And before your first trade, it shows whether your budget is enough.
You place trades yourself with your own broker. The service never has access to your money.

Why people lose money in a falling market
Decisions driven by emotion
Buy more now or wait? Sell on the bounce or hold? Without a rule every decision is a guess, and fear and greed are poor advisers.
Money runs out at the wrong time
The most common mistake is spending the budget early in a decline and having nothing left when the price falls further.
Grids and bots don't know your budget
Orders are placed in advance, but nobody checks whether the money will last through a deep drawdown.
How it works
Three steps. Nobody trades for you: the service calculates, the decision stays yours.
- 1
Check the stock
Enter the stock price and the amount you are ready to invest regularly. The service tells you whether the stock fits your budget.
- 2
Test it on history
Run the model through real crises — 2008, 2020, 2022 — or on your own prices from a broker file. See how much money it would have needed, and when.
- 3
Get your action
At the moments you choose — say, once a week or once a month — enter the price. The model answers: buy, sell or wait, and how many lots.
What the subscription includes
Step calculation
An exact action for the current price: trade direction and number of lots. Instant, unambiguous answers.
Does the stock fit
A two-way check: whether your budget covers the chosen stock, and which stocks fit your regular top-up at all.
Historical testing
Five real market crises plus your own price data. You see not just the outcome but how much money was needed at the worst moment.
What makes Symtick different
A strict rule
The same data always produces the same answer, down to the last digit. No “market feel”, no randomness, no hidden settings.
No leverage
The model never suggests selling more than you hold and never relies on borrowed money.
Budget first, not after
The key question — will the money last — is the first one the service asks.
Exact arithmetic
Calculations use whole numbers, free of the rounding errors typical of ordinary calculators and spreadsheets.
Tested on the real market
The model's key properties are confirmed by automated tests and by runs on real prices from the 2008–2022 crises.
Predicts nothing
Symtick doesn't guess where the price will go. The model reacts to what has already happened, so it needs no forecasts.
Honest about risks
We show the limitations up front so they never come as a surprise.
- In a prolonged decline the model may require significantly more money than at entry. That is exactly why the service calculates it in advance.
- Not every stock suits every budget: expensive stocks need a large capital. The check shows this before your first trade.
- The model does not protect against a company going bankrupt. If a stock stops trading, no rule will bring the money back.
- Broker commissions and taxes reduce the result. Commissions can be included in historical testing.
- Past results do not guarantee future returns.
Who Symtick is for
A good fit for
- Private investors who buy stocks for the long term and want discipline instead of guesswork
- People ready to top up their account regularly
- Those who want to know in advance how much money they may need
Not for
- Anyone looking for quick profits or guarantees
- Traders using leverage or short positions
- Those not prepared to sit through a long price decline

Frequently asked questions
Does the service trade for me?
No. Symtick only calculates the action. You place trades yourself with your broker; the service has no access to your account.
Which securities work?
Stocks and exchange-traded funds. Whether a particular stock fits depends on its price and your budget — the service checks that for you.
How often do I need to log in?
Your choice: once a week or once a month. The model doesn't require watching the market every day.
Does Symtick guarantee returns?
No. No model can guarantee that. Symtick gives you discipline and a transparent calculation, but the risk of loss remains.
How is this different from a trading bot?
A bot trades on its own, often by hidden rules. Symtick places no trades, always gives the same answer to the same data, and checks your budget in advance.
How do I pay for the subscription?
With a card from any bank. Payment opens at launch.
