It is time to protect your retirement money – invest in commodities and out of stock market including ETFs

It will not be easy to save your retirement fund from evaporating in this economy. You need to get out of stock market and invest in commodities.

But investing in commodities is not easy. Most of the commodity Trading Advisors (CTAs) lose money or at best make 3 to 5% a year on the long term. The basis of the private equity funds and hedge funds is inside knowledge, which is illegal and is not sustainable.

Buying commodity ETFs is the worst. It is like holding commodities for the long haul like stocks. Commodities go up and then down. The charts look like mountains. You just cannot buy ETFs, close your eyes and hope money will multiply.

What you need is a strategy of risk management with futures and options on futures. Buy the future, sell the calls and buy distant puts. Monitor the cycles and commercial interests. Risk management bring steady 100 to 300% profit every year with little risks on the downside.

The biggest problem is that most of the managed futures program make less than 30% per year. Their average is close to 5%, which you can make in a CD from a bank.

It is better to learn the arbitrage techniques reading some books and making some dry run trades, The knowledge you gain will not only make you rich, you will reel safer for your retirement.

Beware of one thing commodity brokers are primarily failed traders. Those who make 100% per year on a long-term basis do not offer brokerage service.
