NEWS from the HYIP World

GOLD PRICES fell BIG since last week. Looking over the 1 year chart I could make a case for support in the $390 an ounce area. Below that I would for sure be out of an long positions in Gold at least short term. I think we could get a bounce from there. I would of liked to stay above $400 an ounce but that didn't happen. I think the next 2 weeks will give us a much clearer picture of where it may be headed.

Nasdaq Profit Trading Update

We ended the month with 2 losers on the Nasdaq Profit Trades. However still managed a very solid 5 wins and 3 loss record for January (62.5%). Anything over 60% over a 3 month period can make a person very good money. We have 1 win and 1 loss already for February. Our yearly subscription service is no longer available however our month to month option is. Any purchases by February 29th will receive the March trades. October, November, December, and January have been winning months! We will see if we can continue that streak in February.

The trades have been very solid and anything over 60% a person can make some good money if they have solid money management.

These trades can be placed through Betonmarkets, a Futures broker, or spread trading account.

Each month we will be offering on average 6-8 trades that have a past performance of up/down days of 63% or greater.

If having another way to profit is something that you are interested in please READ the website for ALL THE DETAILS. (I do have to limit the membership)

When you trade yourself you control your $$$$, if you are tired of HYIP's that change the rules after you invested, or just plain disappear you may want to look into trading for yourself.

Retire Quickly

The Retire Quickly Business is booming. People are really impressed with Retire Quickly. The products are truly life changing! EVERYONE wants Financial independence and that is what our products can deliver. Even if you have no interest in the business opportunity, it is the products that will change your life. Using your money a more effective way can take you to retirement much quicker?

Did you have dreams 2-5 years ago that you would be better off today than you really are? I know I did. And actually I am better off financial today than ever before and the reason is I now have the KNOWLEDGE of how to use my money most effectively. Their is NO DOUBT in my mind that over the next 2-5 years that I will become a virtual millionaire. (Virtual millionaire is someone with no debts and a passive-near passive income equal to $60,000.) No debt = Mortgage paid in full, No credit card debt, No car loans, etc... No debt at all! When you have that you have true freedom! All your income can go to buy and do things that you really want to do instead of most of it going to pay your bills.

Where will you be 2 years from now? I know where I will be and that is amazing feeling. The products with Retire Quickly make me successful.

I would love to invite you to take a look at our business. I truly believe anyone that has the desire to build their business will have great success.

Another added benefit is the Tax Savings especially if you are located in the U.S. Taking a quick glance over my taxes I will be able to save $1,000's of dollars because of the Retire Quickly business. I will have the final figures probably in month or two. That is REAL money staying in my pocket due to the Retire Quickly business.

MY GOAL IN 2004 IS TO GET YOU TO RETIRE EARLY!

If you are interested in the business opportunity of Retire Quickly...Check out the Quick Retirement Seminar. (Have your speakers on)

HYIP PROGRAMS

Netpay's website has been online and offline for the last week. I am not sure if they are going through another DDOS attack or not. Hopefully they will fix everything soon.

It looks like their is more fallout from the Nova-lights closing. Their is an investigation on going by some of the big investors. As of right now it looks like they have been pyramiding some of the deposits. If their are refunds it doesn't look at this time that they will be FULL refunds.

A lot of the HYIP community is pretty quiet besides the Nova lights info. Some people are looking for Due Diligence and wondering what the fallout will be. Which I wrote about last week. I see many other people just leaving the HYIP's altogether they are just fed up.

FEBRUARY CONTEST COMING NEXT WEEK!!

HYIP DUE DILIGENCE

It is finally here!!!

Each company will be in a category. I personally will only invest in the companies that Pass DD.

I will be fazing out the $200 Test section of the Newsletter and going just to the HYIP DD section.

Who is in the HYIP DD is up to YOU!!! Their are 100's upon 100's of HYIP's and their is no way I can cover them all. So if you know of an HYIP that you would like DD on you can forward their e-mail and website to me so I can send them an e-mail.

MANY HYIP DUE DILIGENCE WEBSITES HAVE FAILED IN THE PAST THIS ONE WILL NOT AS LONG AS YOU FOLLOW SOME SIMPLE RULES.

1. NO DAILY PAYING PROGRAMS ALLOWED. I don't care if they have lasted a year plus. I don't like Daily payers and will NOT do DD on them. If a program offers daily, weekly and monthly they are still NOT ALLOWED. I will not deal with Daily payers at all. SO DON'T FORWARD THEM TO ME. The only type of daily payers that I will do is ones like daily trades where they tell you the exact trade they placed and if it wins you win if it loses you lose.

2. I will ONLY accept programs that pay on weekly, biweekly or monthly basis. Which means no daily payers and no programs that take more than 1 month to pay out.

3. The program that you forward to me must have a paying track record of at least 90 days! If it doesn't than don't forward it to me.

4. NO Batch games or coin flip stuff.

5. You may forward me companies only to alleycatdd@yahoo.com

Why all the rules you ask? Well as I said in the past 98% of all HYIP's are scams or will eventually fail for one reason or another. I put in the rules to eliminate a good portion of the HYIP's out there that fail. (Maybe you think 80-90% fail, bottom line most do and I want to eliminate as many off the bat as possible)

You won't see hundreds of HYIP's listed in the DD section that just isn't going to happen. As I have said many times most HYIPers have less than $2000 to play with which means you shouldn't be in more than 5-10 MAX. anyway. Hopefully over time we will find some solid programs to add to the HYIP DD section.

A note on DD. DUE DILIGENCE DOES NOT EQUAL THE PROGRAM WILL LAST FOREVER. All DD does is weed out some of the scams. People that really want to scam people in HYIP can make false information available via DD etc.. SO NEVER INVEST MORE THAN YOU CAN AFFORD TO LOSE!! JUST BECAUSE IT PASSES DUE DILIGENCE DOES NOT MEAN ALLEY CAT NEWS ENDORSES THE PROGRAM. WE DO NOT ENDORSE ANY PROGRAM.

HYIP Programs which we have DD on

1. Steady Growth Traders.

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/steadygrowthtraders/

They trade in the forex market each week. Past recent returns have varied between 0-5%.

------------------------------------------------------------------

HYIP Programs that REFUSED DD

These companies were all contacted by me with a request that they provide DD so that we could check them out and put them into the Newsletter. These companies SAID NO to DD for one reason or another. THESE ARE COMPANIES I WOULD AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!! REMEMBER 98%+ OF ALL HYIP'S ARE SCAMS WE ARE TRYING TO FIND THE 2% THAT ARE LEGIT!!

1. APXPRO

2. CASHBUILDER

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Those are the programs so far. Again if you have a program that you would like to know if they would provide DD please contact me at the above email address. The HYIP DD section will be as good as you the reader want it to be. My goal is for people to look to the list and view the programs that have refused DD and avoid them. Hopefully over time that will bring more solid programs to the front of the pack.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

2004 can be the year of Financial freedom if you want it to be. But you need to be a smart/informed investor.

2004 will be our BEST YEAR EVER! Whether your goal is to make $500 a month or $5000+ Alley Cat would like to help you achieve your goal. Our goal is for you to retire early.

Please remember Alley Cat News NEVER Recommends ANY program even if we do get the DD on them. This is for INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. We do invest in some of the programs BUT ONLY IF WE GET THE DD FROM THE COMPANIES. If we can't get the DD from the company we pass on investing in them. We feel that in order to get our hard earned money they need to show us they are for real with the DD. WE ARE NOT SAYING that any program that doesn't provide us with the DD is a scam however we feel it is wiser to only invest when we know the DD of the company. If there are other HYIP newsletters or sites that have the DD we mentioned on the company and are willing to release it if the company has problems that is another bonus to HYIP investors.

Your comments on this question are welcome at alleycatnews@aol.com

I know we have MANY NEW readers to Alley Cat as our subscriber list continues to grow. For information on daily programs and other interesting HYIP news please review our past issues of Alley Cat HYIP News at our website. You can find the Past Newsletters under the tab of "HYIP Newsletter"

http://www.alleycatnews.net

The average HYIP investor who has $2000 or less to invest shouldn't be in more than 5-10 different programs to start off. And there are enough of those good programs out there that will allow Due Diligence, actually trade/gamble/pool your funds. I mean if your really looking to make money in the industry why mess with the scam programs. If you don't want to trade yourself, at least pick decent programs that ACTUALLY Invest YOUR money.

Alley Cat News NEVER RECOMMENDS AN HYIP PROGRAM. The only program Alley Cat News ever recommends is IPS, Nasdaq Profit Trading, and Retire Quickly.

However Alley Cat performs Due Diligence on programs and will let our readers know of programs that have had a decent track record. In these cases we have personally spoken with the Program Admin., and will have the personal contact information available as well.

WE DO NOT RECOMMEND ANY PROGRAM. YOU INVEST IN HYIP's AT YOUR OWN RISK. ALLEY CAT CANNOT BE HELD LIABLE FOR LOSSES THAT INCUR DURING YOUR HYIP INVESTING.

You can always find the current issue of Alley Cat News HYIP on the website under HYIP Newsletter.
