We do not see the other companies who provide the same service as competitors. We are thrilled there are more out there, with the same vision as ourselves, who are also providing a proactive service for people to utilise professional strategies enabling them to profit from the financial markets. As other companies may have differing strategies we believe the consumer just needs to take the time to find the service that best suits their own personality style, and who will best assist them to achieve their investment goals & objectives.
UnEarthed identifies with people who wish to simplify their lives and reduce the complexity & added pressures of today. We understand most people have become caught up in the whirlwind of societies demands but desire to spend more time with loved ones and more fulfilling activities. We know the stock market is certainly a vehicle that, paired with the right tools and strategies, can provide the flexibility, and freedom many people seek.
We have also identified that most people fall under one of the following two categories;
They are an inexperienced investor who feels overwhelmed and is finding it hard to identify what is important and what is not with the masses of market information.
They are an experienced investor/busy professional who does not have the time to monitor markets regularly therefore misses many investment opportunities.
With all this in mind, our goal for purpose is to provide the completeDirect Share Investment Solution for both types of investors to gain a leg up into the investment world and leverage off our market expertise. We have removed the unnecessary time wasting 'fluff' and reduced our reports down to the bare minimum to reduce complexity & stress in our members lives as much as possible. Share investing can be almost be a 'passive income' (where there can be great returns for very little effort), so this is the cornerstone of our product development. Our members are given the essential details to competently invest by a Trading Plan which achieves a 'passive income', and does not become another 'job'.
Another benefit we pass onto our members is that we charge subscription fees monthly-in-advance, (rather than annually-in-advance). Therefore our members can put more money into the market to work for them rather than into our pockets. And if at anytime you wish to stop your subscription you can do so with no questions asked.
Q What markets does UnEarthed specialise in?
We said we wanted to keep everything simple, so we decided to combine our services to provide a single Report for the first 6 months of members subscriptions. So members will receive 2 reports for the price of 1;
The Blue Chip Investor Report specialises within the blue chip companies (top 100) of the major global exchanges. Currently reporting on the Australian market, branching into the overseas markets, which will be available towards the end of 2007. Strategies are suitable for Shares and CFDs.
PLUS...
The Global Trader Report specialises in the main World Indices, some currencies and commodities. Strategies are suitable for CFDs and Futures markets.
Q What is UnEarthed investment philosophy?
Our philosophy is to keep share investing simplistic, so that the inexperienced with no or limited knowledge, right through to the 'time poor' busy professional can still include shares as an integral component to their investment portfolio.
We don't want to create extra unnecessary work for our members, especially with the existing pressures of today's hectic schedules. So reports are kept concise, specific, easy to understand and implement, to ensure subscribers are supported to live the lifestyle they choose.
Some people hold the belief that to invest in the share market you need a lot of time to sit in front of computer screens all day. This is definitely not right. There are many ways to make money from the market, one investor can profit trading a 15 minute chart and so can another investor who buys and sells on average every 15 months. What we ask, is who has the better lifestyle? Our Trading Plans keep investing as close as possible to what could be considered a 'passive income', (meaning minimal effort for return), without being a buy and forget investor.

Q How do I get started in the stock market?
UnEarthed provides its members with the complete all-in-one direct share investment solution. To complement our Stock Reports we teamed up with some industry experts and created a 'Share Market Starter Kit' that gives investors a leg up into the investment world through our knowledge and expertise. The Kit provides them with the essential tools and guidance to make sense of the maze of information out there.
Decide if the Stock Market is the investment vehicle for you.
Know what type of time frame of investing would suit you (2 days, 2 mths, 2 years, 20yrs).
Decide upon how you will make your decisions? * Make them yourself, after educating yourself; * Subscribe to a professional Recommendation Report; * Give your money to a fund manager; * Don’t invest at all.
Decide upon a Broker.
Open a trading account.
Q Isnt the stock market risky? Isn’t it gambling?
Well it depends on what your definition of gambling is.
Putting your money into any new business or venture without knowledge or set of strategies (business or trading plan) is definitely gambling.
Investing into any investment vehicle whether it is a new business, the share market, real estate etc, without a tested set of strategies which include specific guidelines of money and risk management is definately gambling. Successful business practice and investing results from having a set of guidelines (a Trading Plan) to invest by that takes out the guesswork. Guidelines that let you know when to buy, when to sell, and when to do nothing at all. They enable you to relax and wait for the right time where you need to do something.
There are many strategies you can use within the Share Market that can make it predictable and safe. Such as sticking to quality Blue Chip Stocks (companies that have generally been around for a long time with large market capitalisation), diversifying across different sectors, never risking too much of your capital on any one trade, ALWAYS trading with a Stop Loss (knowing your worst case scenario exit price), all these minimise the risk you are exposed to.
These are just an overview of what the professionals use that enables them to succeed through the various market conditions.
Q What makes an individual a Master Investor?
There a hundreds of Trading Plans that return brilliant results, but they aren't worth a pinch of salt if the investor doesn't follow it with patience & discipline. You can have 2 different people using the same Trading Plan but obtain two very different results. Why is this?
The reason for the different results comes down to the mindset of the individual (investment psychology). The fundamental qualities that every Master Investor possesses is patience & discipline to follow their Trading Plan, focus, the ability to make quick decisions, the ability to disconnect from others view points, have great emotional control, is very risk adverse, takes full responsibility for their actions, and treats their share investing like a business.
A great Trading Plan and Investor Psychology go hand in hand for SUCCESS in the share market.
Q How much money can I make from the market?
Some people have unrealistic expectations from the market, where they think they can become millionaires overnight, and unfortunately do something silly that causes them to lose money, where they then blame the market and tell everyone that the market is for 'gamblers'.
The market certainly has virtually unlimited potential. Figures quoted say it transacts anything up to $50 trillion dollars every single day.
Now to consistently obtain and retain a portion of this, Investors need to firstly have reasonable objectives with a proven trading plan (with consistent results) where strategies are followed with patience and discipline. Huge profits can be made, but lost just as quick for the impatient investor. It is important to be patient, consistent and disciplined to follow your trading plan/recommendations. Market conditions can change quickly so it is crucial to be adaptable and not get too elated and emotionally involved. (When an investor abandons their trading strategies in Fear, Hope, Greed or Ego they can quickly become undone). Leave your emotions at the door.
Q What about losing money?
Losing money is a guaranteed part of the process when making money from the Stock Market. It is perfectly comparable to the 'expenses' of running a business. And like in any business, minimising this component is important to remain 'in business'.
In the stock market a good trading plan can be identified by it's Win:Lose and Profit:Loss ratios. (For example; if a trading plan had a 4:1 win:lose ratio, then you could expect that for every 5 trades, 4 would be winning and 1 would be losing.) These ratios are determined by the critical risk & money management strategies of the Trading Plan.
Q These returns look too good to be true, why aren't the Fund Managers getting returns like this?
Fund Managers most certainly are getting returns like this. However, are only sharing up to a 15% pa return with their members (and that is in a good year!). The majority of people don't expect anything more. But remember they are doing all the leg work.
Investing in direct shares enables you to take the steering wheel, but will require some effort on your part especially in the early stages until you get an understanding of the processes and get yourself into a routine of monitoring your portfolio, (which should take no longer than 30 minutes each week).
Q UnEarthed uses Technical Analysis with quality Blue Chip Stocks, so what is Technical Analysis?
UnEarthed has its own unique Trading Plan using a select group of technical analysis tools with quality blue chip stocks, which are generally fundamentally sound companies.
Technical analysis is a method of evaluating securities by analysing statistics generated by market activity, past prices, and volume. Technical analysts do not attempt to measure a security's intrinsic value; instead they look for patterns and indicators on stock charts that will determine a stocks future performance.
Technical analysts believe that the historical performance of a stock is a strong indication of future performance. The use of past performance should not come as a big surprise, people using fundamental analysis have always looked at the past performance by comparing financial data from previous quarters and years to determine future growth.
The difference lies in the technical analyst’s belief that securities move with very predictable trends and patterns. These trends continue until something happens to change the trend, and until this change occurs, price levels are predictable.
We like to describe the markets as a battle between two sides. Bulls vs Bears! After investors have digested all the information they possibly can...everything boils down to two actions…BUY or SELL.
If there are more buyers than sellers, the market will move up……likewise if there are more sellers than buyers, the market will move down. This is known as the supply & demand theory.
Only a chart can show us who is actually providing this driving force, through trends, volume & other indicators and only a chart can show us where to buy and sell securities….otherwise known as entry and exit points.
This is the all important key to successful investing whether for short term gain or for long term growth.
Q Do I need a computer or charting software?
Charting software or to own your own computer is not required to competently use our reports. However, access to a computer to print off your weekly emailed reports is suggested (at an internet cafe etc), so that you can review your portfolio weekly, as we suggest.
Some people like to view the charts which give a visual representation of the stock price movements. Our Free "Fast Track to Share Market Success" kit gives new subscribers a 2 month free trial of one of the most sophisticated charting software programs available.
Q How much time do I need to spend each week?
Initally, like anything, you may need to spend a little more time to set up your trading account and porfolio of shares. Once you have your portfolio established reviewing the UnEarthed Report and making any adjustments to your portfolio, if required, should take you around 30 minutes per week, on a Sunday evening or Monday morning.
Disclaimer: Trading is not without risk. Trading involves risk in the form of financial loss. While there is opportunity for incredible wealth building, there is also the risk of losing even more than you invested. But informed traders are the best traders! Past performance of any security or derivative is not an indication of future performance. Authorised Representative of AFSL 309743 www.kineticsecurities.com.au
