I’m Rachel Bennett, 39, and I’ve been a freelance web designer for over a decade. Let’s be real, I’ve always been wary of investment communities. A few years ago, I got burned badly in a so-called “signal group”, and that loss made me deeply skeptical of any “surefire strategy”.
About 2 years ago, someone in a designer group mentioned ABL and their CV system. I instinctively rolled my eyes, but curiosity kept me from dismissing it outright. So, I did my homework: read the whitepaper, checked public reviews, and ran backtests and paper trading locally. CV didn’t rely on overhyped promises. It broke strategies into clear, understandable components: entry conditions, risk levels, suggested position sizes, and exit points. For someone like me who isn’t a professional investor, that clarity was crucial.
I didn’t dive in headfirst. My approach was cautious. Starting with CV 1.0, I used only about 5% of my investable funds for live testing, set strict stop-losses, and capped position sizes. I logged every trade’s decision logic and outcome, then cross-checked my results against others’ reviews in ABL-TRTE to spot any missteps. As CV upgraded to 2.0 and 3.0, I gradually refined my execution but stayed disciplined, never chasing highs or panic-selling.
The results weren’t overnight riches, but they were meaningful. Based on my records, over roughly 1.5 to 2 years, my test account showed steady growth, around a few dozen percentage points, though exact numbers vary by person. Those gains let me pay off some high-interest debt, build up an emergency fund, and create a buffer for future education and living expenses. The real win though, wasn’t the money. It was how I handle risk and volatility now. I used to freak out over market dips but now, I check CV’s risk ratings and exit suggestions first, then factor in my family’s cash flow before deciding.
I want to stress one thing: ABL and CV are tools, not magic bullets. The community is great. Some share successes, others post failures and lessons learned, and that open accountability helps me a lot. The system simplifies complex information into actionable steps, but I still decide position sizes, capital allocation and life priorities myself.
Now with CV 5.0, I see it as a “navigator”, guiding me, flagging risks, and keeping me disciplined. I’ll keep investing a small portion of my funds, reviewing regularly and using the profits to strengthen my family’s finances and career.
This is my honest experience, neither hyped up nor sugarcoated. If you’re thinking about trying a system like this, do your research, start small and carefully assess your risk tolerance.
