BIOGRAPHY OF MARK SHINNICK

Mark Shinnick, President of Market Timing Systems, Inc., first began developing mathematical models describing Stock Market behaviors well before his first market investments at the age of nineteen. His interest in the markets became engaged at a early age; "I recall regularly hopping into my mother's new 1966 Ford Mustang parked in the driveway as a 7 year old, switching on the radio and listening for stock market news...anticipating what the market might have done that day. My grandfather had admonished that, to be a successful investor, one had to be a student of the market. In fact, for me, the markets have been a life-long study.”

By 1984, Mr. Shinnick had modeled and traded thirty-five different commodity markets and stock indexes and developed an extensive stock market-oriented statistical background while he developed his unique technical analysis indicators and risk management strategies. By 1992, Mr. Shinnick had modeled over 1250 mutual funds.

In 1986 Mr. Shinnick began incorporating these strategies into his proprietary real-time market timing software models, which are the evolutionary basis for the current
MASTERTIMER™ model. Mr. Shinnick's MASTERTIMER™ models now span over 480,000 lines of computer codes, believed to be unique in the industry.

In 1989, at the exact height of that real estate market, Mr. Shinnick liquidated the last of his developments which he had held since the deep real estate market lows of 1981 and 1982. He then devoted his full time to modeling, investing in and trading stocks, options, and commodities for both personal and client accounts. Mr. Shinnick began trading mutual funds on a full time basis in 1992 using his personally developed software program codes. Mr. Shinnick's version of
MASTERTIMER™ software remains a on-going product of observation, insight, development and careful testing, which first began running on computer in 1986, and has been doing so continuously since 1989.

In 1983, Mr. Shinnick was credited with the saving of the lives of a couple upon finding them incapacitated inside their automobile, which was almost engulfed in flame. Mr. Shinnick is also credited by his former neighbors for helping to evacuate one family, and then saving a total of 7 custom homes (including his former one) during the Malibu firestorm of October 1993, which killed 2 of his neighbors as they attempted to escape the flames. Since 1997,
FIRESTORMER is the automated fire defense system for custom homes being developed by Mr. Shinnick in his spare time to help prevent similar future threats to losses of life and property.

From 1994 to 1998, assisted Collier Award (Voyager, 1986) winner Dick Rutan in high altitude human physiologic testing, systems and component design, fabrication and testing, flight preparation and in-flight operational support of the Hilton Hotels' Global Hilton around the world balloon project vehicle, launched January 1998.    DickRutan.com
