Most advice takes a percentage. This is a flat price.
Both books are 1 450 CHF a year, about 121 CHF a month, whatever the size of your portfolio. Or start with one at 850 CHF. The price does not grow when your money does, and your money never leaves your own account.

By January 10, that adviser has already collected a year of StandPoint.
A good adviser also does tax, estate, and talks you out of selling at the bottom. I do none of it. If you want your money managed, hire someone. If you want a second opinion with a record you can check, this is it.

The second product
Your list, the week you join.
An aggressive list of about fifteen names, built the week you join and held a year, with the S&P Book. It swings about one and a half times as much as the index, with fewer names, so it does more in good years and loses more in bad ones. The year is shown in full, the bad one included, on its own page.

Before you pay: six things worth knowing.
For everything else, there is the help and guide.
Do you manage my money?
No. StandPoint is a publication, not a manager. You hold everything in your own brokerage account and place every trade yourself. I never have access to your money, and nothing here is personalized advice.
What does a free account include, and what do the books add?
A free account takes an email, no card, and does not expire. It has every tool: the screener on every name in every book, levels and fundamentals on any ticker, the themes, a watchlist, your own book X-rayed, the archive of every closed position with its thesis, the feed and Levelset, our connector for Claude and ChatGPT. The books add the calls: every position the day it opens with its target and stop, the Overdrive list of the week you join, the live model portfolios and the morning brief.
What does it cost? Is there a minimum?
Both books are 1 450 CHF a year. One book is 850 CHF a year, or 245 CHF a quarter. The price depends on how many books you take, not which. There is no minimum portfolio and no fee on your assets, and you can cancel any time from your account.
How is the model portfolio's return measured?
From adjusted closing prices against a published composition, since the day it went live, beside the S&P 500 over the identical window. No member capital sits in it, there is no window to choose, and the worst drawdown is shown next to the return. The performance page sets out the method in full.
What is a book, and which one do I start with?
A book is a market I cover, and everything I publish about it. Most people start with the S&P Book: the large American names, and it carries the model portfolio and the nightly screen. Adding the Nasdaq Book later costs exactly what adding it now would.
How are the picks different from the model portfolio?
The model portfolio is the core: index funds, held, rebalanced about every four months. The picks are single names around it, opened when the setup earns one and held about a fortnight. They are measured differently, and the two numbers are never added together.
