Dr K Market Direction Model

I am interested in knowing more about the MDM service. What knowledge do I need to possess and how much time is necessary to achieve positive returns?

Q: I am interested in knowing more about the MDM service. Right now I have classic investment type strategy with a portfolio that has equities, bonds, international, some exposure to commodities. Plan for retirement type of view. Generally stayed away from speculation and marketing timing as I don't have the knowledge to do it right.

What I would like to do is perform beyond these markets indices that rise and fall in a herding effect.

What does the MDM service provide and how does it actually work? Do you provide a list of ETFs that I buy using my available capital from my preferred brokerage then add to my portfolio. Then you tell me when to get in and out of them?
