+ NOTES: While there are no management or incentive fees associated with WorldCupAdvisor.com leader-follower AutoTrade programs, monthly subscription fees do apply.

Performance shown on this report is based on end-of-month cumulative account balance. In order to realize the same percentage gains/losses and drawdowns as the lead account going forward, you must fund your account with an amount equivalent to the lead account's balance at the time of entry into the program (Matching Funds). We recommend that you open your account with Matching Funds. An up-to-the-minute Matching Funds total is available on the WCA Net profit Calculator. Net profit calculated reflects advisor's initial investment of $21,383.60, WCA subscription rate of $250.00 per-month per-unit and standardized commission rate of $29.98 per round-turn (includes estimated Exchange, Clearing and Transaction fees of $4.98 per round turn). The actual amount of fees may vary with each specific futures contract traded. Accounts are available through any authorized AutoTradeTM trading service broker.

Trade quantities and frequency in the Jürg Diemand account do not fluctuate with changes in account equity, and Matching Funds may not be needed to meet and maintain margin requirements. If you fund with less than Matching Funds, your investment is considered "notional" and your account's performance, good or bad, will be accentuated on a percentage basis. Conversely, if you fund with more than Matching Funds, you will be de-leveraging your investment, and your gains/loss and drawdowns will be less than those experienced in the lead account on a percentage basis. The Letter of Direction you are required to sign before participating in any WCA program contains a chart that illustrates how notional funding can dramatically affect your investment. Please refer to this chart before notionally funding an account.

** The drawdown begins in the month listed as start. The length in months of the drawdown is listed under length. The recovery begins in the following month, and the length of the recovery period is listed under recovery. The date listed as end is the month that the program recovered from the drawdown.

$250 per month per account

Please note that the monthly performance numbers, ROR and Drawdowns are based on end of month values and are not reflective of intramonth volatility.
