When COVID Crashed the Market 34%, Our System Lost 4%.

Wallace Nichols, MBA, JD, CFPĀ® built an automated investment system designed to grow your wealth in good times and protect it when markets fall apart. 30+ years of experience. Real results. As seen in Bloomberg.

Here's What Keeps Retirees Up at Night

You've spent decades building your nest egg. You did everything right — saved, invested, planned.

Then a crash hits.

  • 2020 COVID crash: the S&P 500 dropped 34% in weeks

  • 2022 rate hikes: the market fell 25% over months

  • Your advisor's response? "Stay the course." "It'll come back."

Meanwhile, you're watching your retirement shrink in real time.

Here's the brutal math nobody tells you: A 34% loss requires a 52% gain just to get back to even. That can take years — years you may not have.

Most financial advisors don't have a plan for crashes. They have a platitude.

There's a Better Way to Invest

At Asset Guidance Group, we built a rules-based automated trading system that does two things:

1. Pursues growth when conditions are favorable Our StormBeacon strategy identifies strong investments using proprietary criteria refined over 15+ years of active trading.

2. Protects your portfolio when conditions deteriorate Our BeaconGuard system monitors risk indicators continuously and shifts to defensive positions automatically — before the damage is done.

The Results Speak for Themselves

This isn't a robo-advisor. This is a system built by a human with 30 years of financial planning experience and a law degree — someone who understands your whole financial picture, not just your stock picks.
