What are Leveraged ETFs?

Today, I can officially announce that VantagePoint now forecasts for two Leveraged ETF Sectors, one Bull and one Bear. Together, these new sectors provide over 80 leveraged ETFs all forecasted with an accuracy up to 86%. Read the full announcement here >>

This means that no matter if you’re experiencing a bull or bear market, trading these leveraged ETFs allows you to capture trends in standard ETFs, but at a profit of 200% to 300% through their leveraged counterparts.

In addition to doubling or tripling profits, the Bear Leveraged ETF sector allows traders to capitalize on the down markets by trading an inverse ETF. Inverse ETFs trade just like a stock or ETF but move opposite of the market or industry it follows. In cases of a down market, traders can still trade to the long side by buying an inverse ETF. It’s a win-win situation.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is a game changer and your chance to DOUBLE or even TRIPLE your trading profits regardless of the market direction.

Fintech Awards

My Appearance at the Fintech Awards

As I’m sure you’re aware, one of the things I’m passionate about is sharing the power of VantagePoint with everyone I meet. The AI capabilities of the software are truly astounding. And as we help more and more traders achieve success in the markets, more media outlets are taking notice… including Benzinga.

I’m currently in NYC attending this year’s Benzinga Fintech Awards where they are celebrating innovation from the world’s top companies. I’m happy to say we were honored for our groundbreaking contributions in the field of Artificial Intelligence with our patented VantagePoint Software and how it relates to the financial markets.

Here’s a video from last night in the middle of Times Square.

I sat down with Kevin Harrington, original shark on “Shark Tank”

VantagePoint, the artificial intelligence (AI) trading software that forecasts stock market trends up to three days in advance with up to 86% predictive accuracy, received an endorsement from renowned investor and entrepreneur Kevin Harrington, calling the software “incredible.”

“I’m quite adept at identifying opportunities that could really hit it out of the ballpark,” Harrington said in his filmed endorsement. “I want to share my enthusiasm for a trading software program called VantagePoint which was the first commercially available fully trained AI-based market forecasting tool in the world.”

Harrington, the successful investor, widely known for his role as an original “shark” on the blockbuster TV show “Shark Tank”, says the stock market offers the potential to make enormous profits if traders can pick the right stocks to buy and sell — at just the right time. With two patents protecting its proprietary AI technologies applied to global market data, the VantagePoint Software has become recognized as the most effective analytic tool that serious traders and investors can use to make more informed and smarter trading decisions based on VantagePoint’s highly accurate market forecasting capabilities.

“AI is an extremely hot topic that’s already disrupting and reshaping entire industries through the use of AI’s machine learning, or artificial neural networks, modeled after the human brain and how it processes information,” Harrington said. “Neural networks can find hidden patterns and relationships in global market data and make highly accurate short-term price and trend forecasts based on those patterns. That’s really incredible if you think about it.”

Throughout Kevin’s famed business career, he has evaluated many trading software products, and finds VantagePoint’s AI capabilities to hold true, unique value above the rest.

I am so proud to have Kevin Harrington’s endorsement of VantagePoint because he carefully scrutinizes businesses he associates himself with and protects the trust the public puts in him, Kevin’s reputation is on the line which is why he’s so selective about products that he endorses. His acknowledgment of VantagePoint’s value is the latest proof point of our company’s leadership position in the application of AI to stock market forecasting.

TBBJ Best Place to work award

Best Place to Work by Tampa Bay Business Journal

This is some exciting news I wanted to share. My company was named a winner as one of the Best Places to Work in Tampa Bay by the Tampa Bay Business Journal. The Best Places to Work award recognizes companies with the best morale, engagement and retention. Listees are chosen by the top overall scores of anonymous surveys completed by the employees at each organization that was nominated in the state of Florida.

Market Technologies employees scored the company on several different areas that make up the overall culture of the company. The consensus was that the company cultivates an environment that fosters innovation, personal and professional growth and a place that the employees like to call their second home.

I’m proud to say that the company provides several fun perks such as free breakfasts every Friday, occasional free lunches, 100% paid healthcare and frequent themed events at the office. And even though the costs of the company-covered healthcare plan significantly increased at the beginning of this year, I decided to continue the generous initiative.

A lot of paint and a little bit of sweat

I wanted to quickly share a video from the Paint Your Heart Out charity event me and the VantagePoint team participated in a few weeks ago. It was a great cause for a great lady and I’m so happy Ms. Josephine loves her newly-painted home. Sure… we were up early. Sure… we spilled some paint in my hair. But it was worth it!

Paint your heart out

We Painted our Hearts Out!

I love to give back to our community. I feel very strongly about philanthropic giving, whether it be monetarily or by volunteering my time. And I have the pleasure of working alongside the VantagePoint team who’s equally as passionate about giving back.

A few weeks ago, we partnered with Paint Your Heart Out, Tampa Bay. They are strictly a volunteer effort aimed at painting the homes of the low income, elderly residents of Tampa The program receive any local, state, or federal funding, but rely solely on private contributions such as cash and in-kind donations. In-kind donations include paint, paintbrushes, rollers, scrapers, ladders, and just about everything you need to paint a house.

The VantagePoint team gathered together early one Saturday morning to paint the home of Ms. Josephine. Teamwork makes the dream work!

My Big Announcement

I’ve always been one to work hard and try my best. I firmly believe that a strong work ethic can build character and drive an individual to achieve greatness no matter what obstacles they face.

As I’m sure you’re aware, my company is family owned and operated and has been since 1979. My dad, Louis Mendelsohn, literally came from nothing in a true rags-to-riches story. I’m thankful (and fortunate) that he had the vision and dedication to build our company to what it is today. You can learn more about our nearly 40-year history right here >>

My career with VantagePoint Software started in the mid-1980s when I joined my dad. I’ve worked in every aspect of the business. This gave me first-hand experience that I’ve used to grow my career. And through the years I’ve experienced the growing pains of being a part of the family business… but I’ve also experienced the joy and triumph we’ve achieved as a company by helping traders achieve success with VantagePoint. We have truly changed the lives for members of our team, our customers, and those in the community who are in need.

Today marks a new chapter in my life. I’m proud to announce that I’ve been promoted to President of Market Technologies and VantagePoint Software. You can read the official Press Release here>>

I’m incredibly fortunate to take this next step in my career and I look forward to all the exciting initiatives on the horizon for the VantagePoint team and our customers.

Dunk Tank

Sometimes… I can get a little wacky

Look… it’s not all business at Market Technologies. Yes, we are empowering traders daily with VantagePoint. But, on other days, we like to get a little crazy and let off some steam. I don’t know exactly why I decided to do this (seriously… I have no idea) but I rented a dunk tank. It seemed like a good idea at the time. At our quarterly meeting, I threw on my bathing suit and gave any VantagePoint Team Member who’s been with me for more than 10 years the opportunity to try and dunk me.

Not everyone had the best aim, so there might have been a bit of cheating involved. None the less, a lot of laughs were had by all!

TBT Award

Market Technologies Named Winner of Tampa Bay Times Top Workplaces Award For 2018

Exciting times at Market Technologies! My company (you know… the one behind the world-renowned artificial intelligence trading software VantagePoint) announced it is recognized as a 2018 Top Workplace by the Tampa Bay Times. The award, based solely on anonymous surveys completed by employees, places Market Technologies in the top 10 out of 50 companies with less than 150 employees.

Everyone at Market Technologies is excited about this award because it recognizes that employees value having an employer that offers a meaningful and beneficial place to work. Together, we’ve built a culture where people enjoy coming to work and know they can support their families at a company that cares about them and the community we all live in.”

The recognition is based on employee feedback gathered through third-party research company Energage, LLC. The anonymous survey was completed by 35,925 employees across 186 companies. Any employer — public, private, nonprofit or governmental — with at least 50 employees in the area was eligible to participate.

Almost 40 years ago, my father started Market Technologies with the dream of helping people create life-changing wealth. We’ve grown to be a multi-million dollar, Inc. 500, trading software company with customers in more than 120 countries. We could not have created this success without the dedicated employees who have stuck with us. Giving back to them has always been a key to the company’s longevity and prosperity.”

Market Technologies is Featured in The Neighborhood News

It shouldn’t come as a surprise that my company is a family company. It was first started by my dad, software pioneer Louis B. Mendelsohn. Then I started and worked my way through the ranks eventually becoming president. But outside of the family lineage, I have my work family too. Many of whom have worked alongside me for many years. And as we continue to build the company to greater success (due to VantagePoint, the incredibly accurate AI software), more and more media outlets are taking notice.

We’ve just been featured in the local Neighborhood News here in the Tampa Bay area. Take a closer look at what makes Market Technologies so great.
