LOS GATOS, CA – 29 Jan, 2016 – eRacks Open Source Systems, a leading California-based provider of high-performing, state-of-the-art rackmount open source systems introduced its innovative eRacks/QUIET3 server series this month utilizing the latest technologies in liquid-based CPU cooling and fanless-design computer systems.  The all-new exciting QuietByDesign™ line of products by the company, including the eRacks/QUIET series as well as the eRacks/STUDIO series, bring a totally new class of products into eRacks Systems’ already extensive line of open source products and services.

Just in time for 2016 music industry’s most important trade show NAMM (National Association of Music Merchants) that took place 21-24 January in Anaheim, California, eRacks Systems introduced its new line of high performing eRacks/QUIET3 rackmount servers.  These QuietByDesign rackmount systems make perfect solutions by nature for the music and recording industry due to their ability to operate in near total silence.  The thin design of the unit is perfect for music racks, touring rigs, and would fit on almost any rack in any recording and music studio.

eRacks/QUIET series are a great compliment to company’s STUDIO series line of products, making way for an all-new and advance generation of QuietByDesign family of rackmount and desktop computers offered by eRacks Systems. The eRacks/STUDIO is delivered fully installed with open source  UbuntuStudio, KXStudio, Planet CCRMA (Stanford), AVLinux, LMMS, as well as with Bitwig, Ardour, or your choice of other Linux DAW & Studio software for audio and video applications.

As the most versatile member of rackmount QUIET family of products, eRacks/QUIET3 is perfectly suitable for any type of noise-restricted environment from simply a quiet office all the way up to very noise-sensitive workplaces such as recording and music production studios.  This 3U unit supports many different internal configuration options to hold 2.5 inch, 3.5 inch, hotswap, and slim optical drives.  The unit is configured to operate quietly most of the times, unless when it comes under heavy workload, in which case a temperature sensor will automatically raise the CPU fan speed to protect it against extreme heat.

The test for quietness is very straightforward according to eRacks’ CTO and founder Joseph Wolff, “If we can’t tell it is on without looking at LEDs, then it meets our ’Quiet System’ standards.”

The eRacks/QUIET2 model, released earlier, is a 2U rackmount system which is also an ideal performer in noise-restricted environments.  Like all other eRacks’ products, the eRacks/QUIET servers are delivered fully installed and preconfigured according to customers’ preferences and choice of open source operating system and software.

eRacks Systems offices are located in Hayward and Los Gatos, California.  Customers can contact eRacks Systems by phone number (408) 455-0010 or email at info@eracks.com

Company’s website https://eracks.com is available for further information on all Open Source solutions provided by the eRacks Systems.

LOS ANGELES, CA – February 1, 2016 – Press release distribution companies often make bold claims of how many journalists, in the hundreds of thousands, their newswire reaches. As the consumer, what matters to you is how many of those journalists from those media outlets actually pick up your news story as well as the quality of those media outlets.

Press Release Jet offers standard press release distribution at the low cost of $25 and this includes guaranteed placement across over 150 media outlets. The premium press release at $75 offers the best return on investment with everything in their standard package along with guaranteed placement across over 350 media outlets and guaranteed placement on premium media outlets such as ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC and CW.

PRWeb offers a standard press release distribution at $99 but as noted from an independent research, this package nets around 75 media sites. PRWeb’s premium press release distribution at $369 and averages around 150 media websites. Unfortunately, PRWeb does not provide a guarantee on the number of media sites nor the specific media outlets that will pick up your press release.

eReleases resells a provider called PR Newswire. eReleases can provide a cheaper rate than going through PR Newswire directly so you are looking at $399 for a single press releases instead of $775. While this is a significant savings from going through their reseller, the caveat is the quality of the newswire is no better than Press Release Jet’s premium press release distribution (around 80% of the media sites are the same) so you are looking at still a more than $300 difference in price.

Conclusively, the press release distribution service with the best ROI is Press Release Jet. The price is a fraction of what the competitors charge and the quality of delivery is second to none!

PALM SPRINGS, CA – 1 Feb, 2016 – DiMora Motorcar will be exhibiting two of their stylish, limited-edition DiMora Vicci 6.2 Emperor Convertibles at the 16th Annual Palm Springs Modernism Show & Sale, February 12 through February 15. The distinctive 430-horsepower rolling art on wheels is the result of a unique collaboration between American automotive designer Sir Alfred J. DiMora and equally influential Totemic Energy Artist Master Lee Sun-Don of Taiwan.

“I love cars and I love art, so I set out to collaborate with world renowned artists to create the first true limited-edition production rolling art. The Annual Palm Springs Modernism Show & Sale is a magnificent event and we look forward to bringing two of our Vicci 6.2s and one of the original Master Lee pieces of artwork to the show,” said DiMora.

Upon purchase of each DiMora Vicci 6.2 Emperor Convertible, the buyer also receives the original one-of-a-kind painting by Zen Master Lee that is replicated onto the automobile. Each large-scale painting in the Great Treasure Gate series pays artistic homage to the rare door knockers created during the Ming Dynasty (1368 to 1644) by incorporating an actual Ming Dynasty doorknocker into the canvas painting. From that, the skilled artisans at DiMora Motorcar invest no less than 750 man-hours to reproduce the artwork onto the hood and side panels of the car, right down to hand laying 24-karat gold leaf as a final step.

DiMora has been in the automotive business for nearly 40 years, having owned Clenet Coachworks. The Clenet was named the “American Rolls-Royce” by Fortune magazine, so there’s no doubt that his equally stunning DiMora Vicci 6.2 is commanding the same level of respect.

“We have been very selective with every aspect of building the DiMora Vicci 6.2, so when it came time to choose the first artist series collaboration, not just any artist would do,” shared DiMora. Master Lee Sun-Don’s popularity worldwide continues to make him a highly sought-after artist. His artwork is currently showing in galleries around the world, including Beverly Hills, Hong Kong, Shanghai, and Taipei, to name but a few.

In an industry where quality and performance matter, the sporty and artistically stimulating DiMora Vicci 6.2 Emperor Series spares no expense with its distinctive hand-built craftsmanship and DiMora Motorcar’s lightweight carbon DFD technology. The limited-edition Vicci 6.2 combines 1930s Art Deco style with 21st Century technology. Each 1.2 million dollar limited-edition production rolling art has aesthetically pleasing features that showcase the DiMora brand’s originality, where creativity sees no limits and offers up a driving experience that is unmatched.

The event is slated to take place at the Palm Springs Convention Center (277 N. Avenida Caballeros, Palm Springs, California) and is presented by Dolphin Promotions. Proceeds from the popular event benefit Modernism Week. Sir Alfred J. DiMora, Founder of DiMora Motorcar, is also scheduled to be on hand at the DiMora Motorcar exhibit to answer questions.

“Modernism Show & Sale benefitting Modernism Week has made a name for itself when it comes to offering unique and desirable artwork,” said Rosemary Krieger, President and Owner, Dolphin Promotions. “We are thrilled to give visitors to this year’s event a glimpse at not only the brilliantly designed DiMora Vicci 6.2, but also one of the original pieces of artwork from the limited edition series.”

The 2,820-pound car has: gold and gold leaf strategically placed throughout the automobile; an aluminum radiator; a 6.2 liter aluminum engine; a Bosch Hydro-Boost Power Booster; state-of-the-art electronics; wire wheels; racing suspension; an aluminum drive shaft; Italian leather; and English Wilton Wool carpet to add to the luxury ambiance. Accompanying the 430-hp engine is an aluminum 4-speed or 6-speed along with a posi rear end. The DiMora Vicci 6.2 also comes in a 556 horse-power Supercharged engine option, but with power like that, it’s definitely not for the faint of heart.

About DiMora Motorcar

Based in Palm Springs, California, DiMora Motorcar excels in providing distinctive, limited-edition transportation solutions. The DiMora Neoclassics series of luxury automobiles includes the Vicci 6.2, now in production, and the Adina, now in the prototype phase. Sir Alfred J. DiMora co-founded the Sceptre Motorcar Company, whose Sceptre 6.6S received Best-of-Show honors at the 1978 Los Angeles Auto Show. DiMora also founded the new Clenet Coachworks, Inc. in the 1980’s to continue designing and building the Clenet series of automobiles. When President Reagan declared 1986 the Centennial Year of the Gasoline-Powered Automobile, DiMora’s Clenet was selected as the Official Centennial Car, resulting in honors for DiMora and the Clenet at the Automobile Hall of Fame in Michigan.

PHOENIX, AZ–( Feb 2, 2016) – Tombstone Exploration Corporation (OTC PINK: TMBXF), a fully reporting company (BERLIN: UDNA), announced today that Mr. Robert M. Hughes has been appointed to the TMBXF Board of Directors. 

Mr. Hughes is the CEO of Hughes Relocation Services Inc., a company engaged in local and interstate transportation of private residences and office and industrial establishments as agents for United Van Lines and Mayflower Transit. He currently also serves as a Director on several corporate and local boards in his community. Mr. Hughes received his Masters Degree from George Washington University in 1976.

Alan M. Brown, President of TMBXF, stated, “We would like to welcome Robert to TMBXF’s Board of Directors. His experience and expertise in business includes building very successful companies, one of which was the second largest PODS franchise servicing New Jersey, Delaware and Eastern PA. 

Tombstone Exploration Corporation is finalizing the next phase of its exploration plan for the Stardust Property. The Company will be focusing on a zone of intense fracturing that was determined to exist across an area of approximately 700 meters in length and 250 meters in width as the high priority drill targets. This was recently identified by the completion of a ground based geophysical program performed by Zonge International that has identified multiple Gold drill targets on the property. This zone of fracturing is seen in a magnetic signature and is indicative of destruction of magnetic minerals from the possible introduction of hydrothermal fluids. The next phase of exploration including drilling will be to confirm and expand on a initial report showing a resource of approximately 2-3M tons with average gold values of 0.06-0.20 opt.

Tombstone Exploration Corporation is a gold silver copper exploration company based in Phoenix, Arizona. The Company’s goal is to maximize shareholder value through focused exploration, testing and development of high quality mineral targets in the prolific mineral producing areas in S.W. USA. This goal will be achieved in part through the application of the best mineral exploration practices and techniques available to the Company’s experienced exploration and management team, including adherence to the highest possible standards of corporate responsibility, governance and conduct.

British crowdlending platform, Sensible Lender introduces a new fixed interest lending model. All new loans will be issued at fixed interest rates set by Sensible Lender. Under this new model, Sensible Lender will set the interest rate based on risk band and loan term.

Sensible Lender is not the first lender to abandon auction listings for a fixed rate model. Many European marketplaces took this step before and the long term goal of this is that in future borrowers may have their loans pre-approved before they are even listed and have them closed instantly once filled.

Launched in 2012, Sensible Lender aims to help British borrowers struggling to access mainstream sources of finance, while providing individual investors with a good return on their money. As an investor, you have your money allocated automatically using the Auto-Matching model to match lenders proportionately to every single loan available.

Since launching, more than 200 UK borrowers have accessed finance through Sensible Lender, across 230 loans. Loans with this company are secured, so the lender is protected against default. If any of the borrowers miss payments, they risk repossession of the asset used as collateral.

Investors in Sensible Lender have passed a milestone for the peer to peer lending sector after loaning more than £50m to commercial and residential property owners in the UK. The group said its backers, who earn an interest rate on their loans of about 4% per month after fees and bad debts, were on track to lend a further £50m in 2016.

The average saver is around 50 and has around £5,000 invested – although many start with rather more than that, for example splitting £30,000 into 3-, 6-, and 12-month investments.

By bringing together industry leading risk management and cutting edge technology, Sensible Lender’s proven marketplace model enables real estate owners to access finance in days compared to weeks with a bank.

The UK government, including Harriett Baldwin, economic secretary to the Treasury, has encouraged the growth of peer to peer lending as an alternative to conventional bank lenders, especially the larger high street banks which have been hit by the greater regulation that followed the financial crisis.

They have created an application process that takes fewer than 10 minutes. Borrowers can access financing up to a maximum of £2,000,000. But unlike other lenders, Sensible Lender is not promising money in an hour. Instead, the approval process can take up to five days. However, in exchange for waiting, borrowers can receive much lower interest rates than many competitors.

The forex market is the biggest in the world, and never closes, and thanks to binary options trading is also the most accessible market for individuals to begin trading on. This has made it a popular target for broker software providers to offer platforms, but unfortunately not all these are cut from the same reputable cloth. ForexBonus100.com, a site that regularly reviews forex brokers, broker bonuses and binary options robots recently became the #1 resource on the web for busting open a potential scam concerning Ultimate4Trading.

Regular readers who allege that they have been scammed by the Ultimate4Trading platform and associated broker EZTrader, started to flood the comments board on ForexBonus100 alleging a scam, with a broad range of these comments matching key details and corroborating one another’s claims.

Shortly thereafter, that page shot up in the search results and has inadvertently become the go-to repository on this breaking scandal. Trader after trader has shared their story on how they have been scammed by Ultimate4Trading.

In response to the overwhelming allegations, ForexBonus100 has also set its own team of investigators, who will begin reviewing other binary options trading robots like Dow Jones Focus Group and many more, to ensure the same doesn’t happen again.

A spokesperson for ForexBonus100 explained, “We have been taken aback by the overwhelming flood of attention this issue has received and we are looking to respond to this accordingly. Having quickly become an authority on the scandal and a place for people to share their stories, we are now creating a team that will investigate these claims on behalf of our members and look to expose the truth about these growing accusations. The presence of scammers in the forex market is nothing new – new traders are the easiest to fool – but the scale of this scam is definitely something new, and something we don’t want to see repeated.”

About ForexBonus100:

Since 2013, ForexBonus100 has become one of the leading authorities on the web for breakdowns on the latest forex broker bonuses, rebates, contests, as well as reviews of trading robots and broker platforms. The website is regularly updated with the latest news, trends and strategies that enable individuals to succeed in growing their fortunes.

There are many dark sides to commerce, but one of the most damaging elements of the internet for many lies in its shades of grey. It can be almost impossible to tell legitimate businesses from fake ones, as the fakes have gotten very good at presenting themselves well online. Rip Off Report is a website aimed at exposing the fakes and helping people take action if they have been wronged by these companies. The site has just published a new report on Best Price Evaluations, accusing them of Medical Marijuana Doctor Fraud.

In their research, they have discovered that over 50% of the medical marijuana doctors’ offices that are opened in California are fraudulently run and need to be investigated. Best Price Evaluations is the first of these that the site has tackled head on.

The owners of this corporation are Gregory Hamilton and Inga Gefter. They own a fraudulent medical marijuana doctor’s office that prescribes fake marijuana recommendations to its patients. So far they have issued over 300,000 fake recommendations to patients and collected over $4,000,000 via these fraudulent methods. 

They hire physician assistants, when the law clearly states that the marijuana recommendations have to be issued by a licensed physician.  The law also states that it is illegal to employ doctors unless you are a doctor yourself. This creates an illegally owned corporation run by unqualified people who hire fake doctors.

Best Price Evaluations processes many of these requests through its website at bestpriceevaluations.com. If any patient who gets arrested with one of these fake recommendations, they will go to jail because it will not hold up in court.

A spokesperson for Rip Off Report explained, “There are people out there right now who don’t realise they have been scammed and are at risk of being imprisoned all because this company is hiding the way they do things. We want to shed light on this rip off and ensure the media knows the names of those involved, so we can begin to see justice being done.”

About Rip Off Report:

Rip Off Report expose fraudulent companies in order to help the people get their money back for paying for fake services. The site allows people to be armed with the opinions, comments and experiences of others like them so they can determine for themselves if they want to do business with certain listed companies or individuals.

According to recent research published by the University of Bath, funeral costs are on the rise. Families have seen an 80 percent increase in funeral costs across the UK since 2004, and they are only expected to spend more as time goes on. The average funeral in the UK costs well over 3,000 pounds, which does not include flowers, a plot, or a memorial stone.

It is with these numbers in mind that Insurance Hero is announcing its mission to help people find affordable life cover. Right now, people across the UK can get a free, no-obligation quote that will help them locate the best life insurance policy for their current needs at www.insurancehero.org.uk/types/police-officers.html

Simon Jones, a representative of Insurance Hero, stated “Most people don’t like to talk about the realities of life insurance. However, whether it’s expected or unexpected, death is a reality for everyone. With the costs of funerals expected to continue rising, it’s now more important than ever for people to find the right life insurance cover that will take care of those expenses and provide for their families should the unthinkable happen. Fortunately, Insurance Hero UK makes this process easier than people often think it is.”

Jones goes on to say, “People can simply go to our website to get a thorough education about life insurance and what to expect from the process of buying a policy.

Once we receive a person’s enquiry, our team goes to work on finding quotes for their ideal policy, analysing numerous insurers to locate a good match.

Foothill Ranch, California – February 3, 2016 – Springboard Equity, Inc, today announced that ZALEA, an innovative start-up that addresses the needs of the growing cosmetic and aesthetic treatments industry by bringing web and mobile applications to the masses, has launched on the Springboard Equity fundraising platform. 

ZALEA’s mission is to bring transparency to cosmetic treatments through social commerce, delivering engaging content that trumps what currently exists in the industry. Featuring expert commentary by doctors and social feedback from customers and industry enthusiasts, ZALEA brings greater clarity to the industry, while making it easier for consumers to navigate this otherwise complex and often confusing marketplace. 

The company has already completed funding of its $2MM Series A investment round through a network of “power investors,” savvy industry experts who are confident that the company will be the leader in this space. The current round launching on Springboard is for ZALEA’s Series B raise of $600K, which is expected to sell out quickly. 

“We’re very excited to support Lou Scafuri in the launch of ZALEA’s fundraiser,” Lyle Martin, chief executive officer of Springboard Equity, said. “The industry experience of the executive team, investors and advisors is very promising for strong financial returns.”

Martin added, “We are featuring ZALEA in a live 30-minute Shark Tank-style pitch webinar on February 18th at Noon (PST), and expect a full audience to attend. This deal is slated to fund very quickly.”

ZALEA to become the trusted voice for the Global Cosmetics and Aesthetic Treatment Industry 

The cosmetics industry has not seen the type of transformation with social commerce in the way the restaurant industry has with Yelp or the home improvement industry with Houzz. As a result, ZALEA presents an untapped opportunity for both investors and people seeking cosmetic treatments. 

“While most industries have already experienced a modern growth in transparency through social commerce and online services, the aesthetic and anti-aging industry remains virtually untapped,” Lou Scafuri, founder and chief executive officer of ZALEA, said. “We’re bringing together the brick and mortar world of cosmetic service providers into an online, social community that amplifies transparency, improves product and provider selection, and drives business through social-proof, community discussions and consumer incentives.” 

Springboard selectively vets the companies it works with on its funding platform. ZALEA made the cut due to its strong potential, backed by existing funding success, a solid business plan and opportunity, and the powerful team of industry leaders that are running the company at all levels.

ZALEA has partnerships with such leading organizations as The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, Concentrekgroup.com and Webadvanced.com

It is estimated that the overall success rate of binary options traders is about 50 percent. Unfortunately, this isn’t nearly high enough for them to win at binary options. However, as with trading of any type, having the right information is key. Those who do have a higher success rate are usually achieving that success with the help of a professional trade signals service.

For many traders, finding the right binary options trading signals provider can be tricky. A quick Google search for the term “binary options signals” returns over 39 million results. It is with the mission of helping traders solve this dilemma that WinAtBinaryOptions.com, a premier website and go-to resource for binary options comparisons and reviews, is highlighting the competition between signal providers in the binary options space.

Adam Teen, one of the experienced traders behind WinAtBinaryOptions.com, stated “With the introduction of binary option contracts came the rise of the brokers, new online trading platforms, and an entire supporting industry such as binary signals providers. All professional binary traders rely on some type of signal. While professional signals can help traders find better success and more profitability, it’s vital to understand how the signal providers work and what they offer. That is our primary focus.”

Teen goes on to say, “I’ve been following the binary signals market for over 3 years, and I feel that despite many signals being advertised there is still room and the need for reliable services. However, reaching consistent wins of at least 75 percent is not easily done and only the experienced traders can build a service that can deliver. Binary options should not be treated like a gamble and played on luck or emotional intuition like a roulette in a casino. We’ve tested out many of the most popular as well as up-and-coming binary signal services, and based on user experience we write reviews on a list of signal providers and share our opinion as to whether or not a provider is worth looking at.”

“In addition to many independent traders who started their own services, there are now many brokers who also offer binary signals as a way to entice more traders to use their trading platforms. This has led to a fierce competition between brokers, as well as third party signal providers. Brokers usually have deep pockets and can spend a lot of money advertising their services, but many individual traders at home prefer to use binary signals from independent providers as they are less biased towards a particular trading platform.”

About WinAtBinaryOptions.com:

Win At Binary Options is a binary options comparison and review site born after a few like-minded traders decided to review binary options signals and share their experience.

Figures recently released from the real estate industry reveal less than 18 percent of homes sell within the amount of time current owners anticipate. Though properties typically remain on the market for an average of 30 days under ideal circumstances, this stint could last six months or longer depending on a number of factors. With this contradiction in mind, Guillermo Coronado of Fast Cash Offers has launched the Houston-based home purchasing company’s Fair Fast Cash Offer initiative.

Coronado elaborated, “Most of our clients end up needing to sell their homes quickly, but they’re not always able to do so through conventional channels. An entire array of elements completely out of their control can easily leave them in a less-than-favorable situation waiting months for a buyer to come along, only to receive an offer well below fair market value. With our Fair Fast Cash Offer, we ask sellers to give us their address and contact information and answer five simple questions. Then, we generate an all-cash offer within 24 hours.”

Condition factors into the amount of time in which a home sells with those needing repairs often being passed up for properties of more suitable status. Location is also a primary issue as those in highly sought-after areas are more likely to sell within the expected 30-day time frame. State of the market at the time of listing plays a role as well with aspects such as surrounding property values, change in local employment opportunities, interest rates and the number of other homes for sale in the region all affecting selling time. 

According to information found on the Fast Cash Offers website, www.fastcashoffers.com, sellers are also often forced to contend with additional issues when selling a home in the traditional manner. Among these are routine improvements to increase property values and marketability, as well as fees and contracts associated with real estate agents. Due to the many variables involved, closing can take an additional 30 to 45 days, further lengthening the process.

Concluded Coronado, “The costs and procedures involved in selling a home have a way of taking time and money sellers don’t have, and this is where we step in to offer an alternative. We provide Fast Cash Offers on Homes regardless of their condition or the circumstances surrounding clients’ reasons for selling. In most cases, we can close on a property in less than a week. We hope our Fair Fast Cash Offer initiative will encourage homeowners in sticky situations to turn to us for help, and potential clients are never obligated to sell us their homes after we make them an offer.”

CHICAGO, IL – 05 Feb, 2016 – Eric Hays and David Garside, co-founders of SportsFyle, LLC  are actively working on what could be the “Next Big Thing” in social networking. SportsFyle will provide an online player scrapbook and sports community platforms.  They (with the help of their friends, family and a lot of cups of coffee) have created a onlin platform that will focus exclusively on sports.  Eric and David, recently have announced their KickStarter crowdfunding campaign on February 16th, 2016.  The proceeds will be allocated towards the development of SportsFyle’s mobile solution and addtional features to enhance the user experience.  In the last two weeks alone their Facebook page has seen 25,000+ engagements and their Twitter account almost has 2,000 followers now.

David Garside one of the co-founders and CEO of SportsFYLE said: “Players can then develop their own unique virtual scrapbook and sports identity called their FYLE. Our SportsFYLE Connect platform offers a different kind of focused experience designed to get player’s history organized and get them socially connected to their sport.”

Eric has a personal story that helps fuel his passion for this idea.  “When I was a teenager living in Canada I wish I would have had a SportsFYLE solution when I was trying to market myself for a football scholarship.  Instead I had to build my own sports resume.”  Well, Eric succeeded and got a scholarship playing for the Northern Illinois Huskies.  Rather than play in the Canadian Football League (CFL), he pursued his family and professional interests.  

Several years later he was employee number twenty four  and he helped to build the network infrastructure for Orbitz.com

The founders of Sportsfyle also aim to highlight their trademark of the word “FYLE”, which represents an online profile. Sport’s aficionados will want to have their own fyle to tell their story and affiliation to their respective sport.  They have released HockeyFyle.com as a concept community and they have also launched FootballFYLE.com, SoccerFYLE.com, Softballfyle.com, BaseballFYLE.com and BasketballFYLE.com to help introduce their sports community idea.

They are looking for the support of the crowdfunding community primarily the one’s that enjoy sports and athletics. They have developed a variety of different sports related incentives.  The funds raised will help to bring their networks to life. It is free to join and early adopters are encouraged to sign up and participate in what could be the next big thing in social networking.

ITHACA, NY – 08 Feb, 2016 – You are considering investing.  You have received an inheritance, saved a substantial sum of money, or you are beginning your career and you understand the importance of planning for your future.  Regardless of the reason, you will likely need a financial advisor to help you develop the right investment strategy.

“A successful investment strategy is multifaceted. A number of factors must be taken into consideration,” says Bill Winters, Senior Vice President and Managing Director for Tompkins Financial Advisors in White Plains, NY. “It requires setting goals and answering a series of related questions to inform a sound investment strategy.”

What do you want to achieve with your investments

Make a list of your goals. The list might include purchasing or building a house, establishing a college fund, starting your own business, and saving for retirement. Try to associate a cost for each goal. While it may be hard to project the amount of money you should contribute to your child’s college fund, you may have an idea of what it will require to buy property or what you will need for a comfortable retirement. Your financial advisor will be able to help you with cost projections, but it’s good to have a starting point.

What is the time horizon for each of your goals

Your time horizon is the length of time you have to actively invest.  Visualize the horizon as an arch and draw it on a piece of paper. Add your goals and associated costs along the arch.  You might write: purchasing a home near the beginning; starting a business towards the middle; buying a vacation property at the ¾ point; and retirement at the end. You might also add your current age at the beginning and your projected retirement age at the end, and the ages when you wish to achieve other goals along the way. This will help you visualize the arch of your investment life and the time needed to realize each of your goals.

What are your sources of income and how much can you invest

List your sources of income, household expenses and other financial obligations, such as college loan payments. One you have a picture of your revenue and expenses and how much you need for personal cash flow, you can then determine how much and how often you can realistically contribute towards your goals.

What is your risk tolerance

While your investment advisor will plan a strategy to mitigate loss, investments fluctuate. How comfortable are you with the possibility that you could lose some of your investment principal? Are you prepared over the long term to ride the ups and downs of the market or are you risk adverse?  Your answer will be directly related to your goals and time horizon. Your level of tolerance will inform your advisor’s suggested investment strategy.

What are your liquidity needs

Perhaps you plan to buy a house in the next few years. If this is the case, your advisor will suggest funds that have a high growth potential, and can be easily liquidated for a down payment and closing costs when the time comes. If you need reserves for an emergency, perhaps part of your investment will go into a money market account or publicly-traded stocks that can be also be easily liquidated. If you already own a home, and have cash reserve, then your liquidity needs may not be as great.

Answering these important questions will take some time, but will be worth the effort. Along with defining your goals, you will have a clearer picture of your finances, how much you have to invest, your time horizons, risk tolerance and your liquidity needs. All are important considerations for creating a sound investment strategy. Now it’s time to make an appointment with your financial advisor and get started on realizing you financial goals.

Ziezmariai, Lithuania – February 8, 2016 – Rimantas Petrauskas, creator of the well known application called Local Trade Copier, was pleased to announce the release of the latest version called “Nanga Parbat”, named after one of the eight-thousander mountains. Since 2010, hundreds of retail traders and account managers have been using LTC to manage tens of millions of dollars. Several new features have been added to LTC, but the most important point to mention is that LTC was improved significantly for working with brokers that have FIFO restrictions.

Local Trade Copier is a special software for the MetaTrader 4 platform. It was created to help retail Forex traders and account managers duplicate trading positions between multiple accounts so they won’t need to repeat the same trade operations on each MT4 platform individually. Local Trade Copier, (LTC), is a robust software application that doesn’t require users to be expert programmers. Users can start copying trades in 5 minutes, as it is designed in such a way that it can be used immediately without learning all its 100+ configuration options. While it has a wealth of options, users only need to know a few to start using it and duplicating trades between MT4 accounts.

Local Trade Copier – Version 2.8 “Nanga Parbat” has a series of updates. The company reports the following updated areas: Improved authorization mechanism, Improved LTC work on brokers with FIFO restrictions, Protect funds by allocating just a portion of a client account for trade copying, Set custom trade comments from the server side, Copying trades between different user profiles on the same computer, Delay trades when account equity is below X, and hide input boxes from the chart.

User testimonials are indicative of just how much they enjoy using this software application. Take a look at what Tobias Bolle, of Germany, has to say: “I was looking for a solution to copy trades from a smaller account into a larger one – fully automatically. With LTC I found a solution which made it easy and uncomplicated to achieve this goal. A really good solution to copy trades in a very easy and reliable way.”

Modern Living with kathy ireland presents an exclusive interview with Ignite Funding’s President, Carrie Cook.

LOS ANGELES – February 9, 2016 – Modern Living with kathy ireland announces an exclusive feature story about Ignite Funding, a company offering Americans crowd-funded investments secured through collateralized real estate.

Kathy Ireland interviewed Ignite Funding’s President, Carrie Cook, to learn more about their services and solutions.

Ms Cook commented on why so many investors steer clear of the real estate market during the segment. She said, “I would love to know the answer to that. Why would they? Real estate is a part, and should be a part, of everyone’s portfolio. It’s not just stocks and bonds and mutual funds. Real estate is very, very important.”

She continued by speaking on what her company is doing to mitigate the risks of investing in real estate. She said, “Mitigating the risk is making sure that you are underwriting and the valuation of those assets are done diligently and efficiently and that you walk all of the properties. Also, making sure that you do not lend 100% to anybody. Who would do that? So lending 75% of what the value of that property is, mitigates the risk for an investor if you have to take the property back, if you are foreclosed on.”

JL Haber, the show’s Vice President of Programming, added, “I have often wondered why people are so sacred of investing in real estate and Carrie answered my question. It is great that she is changing the game for real estate investors and investments.” 

Tune in to see the Ignite Funding feature story on E! Entertainment as sponsored programming on February 11, 2016 at 6:30am ET/PT and Bloomberg International as sponsored programming on February 14, 2016 at 7:00am GMT, 10:00am D.F. and 2:30pm HKT.

CLAREMONT, CA – 09 Feb, 2016 – Herd mentality, fear-and-greed – call it what you will, but the perils of attempting to time the stock market and chase performance are thoroughly documented.

Indeed, research and consulting firm DALBAR found in its 2003 Quantitative Analysis of Investor Behavior that the S&P 500 returned 12.2 percent annually in the roughly two decades between 1984 and 2002, one of the longest bull markets in U.S. history. In contrast, the average mutual fund investor earned 2.6 percent annually during the same period.

Why such a high disparity in performance? Investors are their own worst enemy; by trying to capitalize on the “hot, new thing” the average investor is too often left holding the bag.

Enter trend following, an investing concept that – far from enabling the self-defeating behavior that sabotages even the best-laid investment plans – seeks to minimize the emotions that lead to poor decisions. Relying on technical analysis of market direction and certain pre-determined signals, financial practitioners of the strategy make buy and sell decisions based on what they see; for instance, “when a 50-day moving stock market average crosses the 200-day moving average.” While it might sound foreign to the average investor, it’s something trend following professionals immediately grasp.

The strategy isn’t new, existing in one form or another for almost as long as market trading itself. How it’s implemented varies depending on the financial professional’s system. It’s also a strategy that’s constantly evolving, driven by the increased volatility and hyper-connectivity markets are experiencing.

While not new, it’s nonetheless timely, as baby boomers, the largest generation in United States history, head for retirement. The Social Security Administration reports that 10,000 baby boomers retire every day, averaging one every 8.6 seconds. What happens if these pre- and post-retirees get it wrong?

It’s not an irrational fear. The recent Allianz Life Insurance Company “Generations Apart” study found that two-thirds (67%) of both Gen X and baby boomer respondents said they still feel the impact of the 2008 market crash on how they live, work, save, and spend.

“Investors in general do see that a buy-and-hold approach will give them the gains of the market, but it will also put them through some really challenging periods,” said Nino Pavan, President of Financial Designs Corporation, a financial advisory firm in Claremont, California that implements trend following strategies. The firm has been around since 1981, and the trend following strategy they’ve developed was implemented in 2000, proving its worth in multiple investing cycles since.

Part of the discussion he’s having with his retired clients is that, while they may have been able to absorb a market shock while working and adding to their retirement accounts (often with a company match to boot), they’re now spending down accumulated assets, a situation that’s often exacerbated in market downturns.

“The money simply won’t be there in the recovery, because it was withdrawn for day-to-day living expenses,” Pavan added. “In retirement, ensuring the money lasts becomes as high of a priority as getting a good return.” Trend following means not only identifying what might be happening in the stock market at a given point in time and reacting appropriately, but also why it’s happening, something Pavan concedes.

“If the reasoning behind what’s seen in the market is something that’s short-term, it’s best not to act,” he explained. “However, if it looks like something that has some sustainability and legs, either on the upside or downside, then it will cause trend-following investors to take action.”

“Take action” might mean moving clients out of the market completely if the situation is dire enough, and he’s willing to risk sacrificing some of the market’s upside potential to ensure against its downside danger.

It’s no doubt controversial in some financial circles, but again, for those tempted to dismiss such a strategy as a glorified attempt to time the market, consider the following: During the financial crisis, Financial Designs’ trend following signals told them to exit the market in August 2008 and to re-enter in April of 2009, which subsequent events proved to be about as good as it gets.

“It’s not about helping investors to get rich quick, it’s about keeping them from becoming poor,” he diplomatically stated. “The strategy is a systematic, disciplined approach that’s not trying to guess the bottom of the market. It’s about protecting what they’ve worked hard to save over the last 30 or 40 years. Yes, there are going to be good times, but there will also be times when protection is needed. A good offense is great, but a great defense is needed as well.”
