Please note: Hypothetical computer simulated performance results (“Backtesting”) are believed to be accurately presented. However, they are not guaranteed as to accuracy or completeness and are subject to change without any notice. Backtesting has certain inherent limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, backtesting does not represent actual trading. Since, also, the trades have not actually been executed; the results may have been under or over compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors such as liquidity, slippage and commissions. Backtesting in general is also subject to the fact that it is designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any portfolio will, or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown in our backtests. All investments and trades carry risks.
