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

disadvantaged youth to the wilderness environment. 16,000 such
youths visited Alpine Meadows Camp in 2000. When the most recent
new expansion construction is completed, 25,000 to 28,000 such
youths per year will be accommodated. Please consider
supporting this valuable and humane expansion with donations of
cash, appreciated stock, aircraft, real and other personal
