This section gives a general overview of the AID signup process. If you need to know how AID gets its signals,
click here to go to the signals page.
Signing up for AID is a three step process. The first step is to enter your contact information. The second step is to specify the payment method. You can pay by credit card, debit card or by bank draft/check. The third and final step is select the investment class(es) you are interested in and then specify how you want the signals for those investments class(es) delivered. You can get your signals three ways: (1) Web dashboard, (2) email, (3) text message or any combination of the three. You get Web dashboard by default. Signals delivered by e-mail come as text file attachments, with CommoditySignals.txt for commodity futures, CryptoSignals.txt for cryptocurrency signals, and StockSignals.txt for stock signals. Signals for commodity futures, cryptocurrency and stocks all come with a subscription. You can choose at signup time which ones you want. You can also add or delete them later.
An example of a stock signals file is below. This is the attached file StockSignals.txt that comes attached to an email. The Web dashboard and text messages will look similar.

There are five columns: Date, Ticker Symbol, Limit Order Type, Limit Price and 95% Confidence Interval (Lower, Upper). The Date column gives the date the signal was generated, the Ticker Symbol column gives the ticker symbol for the investment. If the investment is a commodity futures contract, there will be a commodity name. The Limit Order Type column gives the kind of limit order you enter (buy or sell). The Limit Price column gives the price of the limit order you enter. The 95% Confidence Interval (Lower, Upper) gives a 95% confidence interval for the limit price. The 95% confidence interval for the limit price is an interval over which you can 95% sure that the limit prices will fall into. This is because the limit price is actually a prediction for tomorrow’s price. That prediction is subject to random error and the confidence interval gives you an idea of how much random error is in the prediction. Signals are generated after New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) close (4 PM Eastern Time).
The basic idea is come home in the evening after NYSE close, enter your limit orders, then check those orders the next afternoon after NYSE close and compute your profit(s) or loss(es).
The reasons for doing this are twofold. First, it gives you time to do something else besides following markets. Second, market price predictions beyond one day out are difficult to do. The signals are good for the day they are generated and up to just before NYSE opening the next day (9 AM Eastern Time). The price that is predicted for the next day is the midpoint or the high price plus the low price divided by 2. This is for reliable limit order execution. Please set your limit orders to good until canceled plus extended hours. If the option for plus extended hours is not available, set the limit order to good until canceled.
Limit orders will occasionally fail to execute. This is because the limit prices in the signal are predictions for the next day. The predictions are fairly accurate, but not perfect. Occasionally a prediction will not fall between the actual high price and actual low price for the next day. This can cause limit orders to fail to execute.
If this happens, your response will differ if the signal is a buy signal or a sell signal. For buy signal, if the buy limit order does not execute, simply wait until the next day and see if the buy limit order executes. If it does, all is well. If it does not, cancel the buy limit order and wait until the next buy signal.
For sell signals the response will differ from buy signals. This is because you need to sell. If the sell limit order does not execute, wait and see if it executes the next day. If it does, all is well. If it does not, set your sell limit price to a reasonable profit or to breakeven. Then amend the sell limit order to the new sell limit price and wait. If the order does not execute after two days, cancel it and wait until the next sell signal.
