How Mercados Pro works
First: you can register for free. That already makes you part of the Sergio Ávila Bolsa and Mercados Pro community, with access to the open forum for community members — with no subscription required.
From there: Institutional Radar and the Investment League, explained from the inside — what you find on each screen, how each mechanic works, and which plan makes sense for what you want.
Institutional Radar
The market analysis dashboard. Used daily: you log in, review what has changed since yesterday, and decide with that.
1.1 How it is organised
Radar opens on a single screen divided into tabs. Each tab is a standalone panel focused on one question: how healthy the market is, where real strength lies, what is changing, how much risk is on the table right now.
There is no required reading order: you can move freely between tabs; each loads its own content separately.
1.2 What panels you will find
The Dashboard groups several dozen indicators. This is the map by category: which question each group answers, not the exact formula behind each one — that part is kept private on purpose.
Overview and market health
- Market health — a general thermometer of the context.
- Breadth and sentiment — how many stocks take part in a move, not just the index.
- Dollar / S&P 500 ratio, Macro risk — the underlying macro context.
- Seasonality — what has tended to happen around these dates.
- Participation, Relevant changes, Control centre — what is moving and an executive summary of everything above.
Strength and weakness
- Strength / Weakness — a ranking of which assets perform better or worse than the whole.
- Strength + Quality — crosses that strength with fundamentals.
- Long-term momentum / Value + Momentum — underlying trends, not two-session bounces.
Technical signals and rotation
- Cross / Avilas Bands — proprietary levels and crosses on each asset.
- Relative / Support / Supertrend / DM — different technical scanners, each with its own criteria.
- Confluence — which assets appear in several scanners at once.
- Rotation, Institutional trend, Strong/weak hands — where the money is moving.
Sentiment
- Social attention — which assets concentrate conversation on X/Reddit — context data, never a buy signal on its own.
1.3 The six strength filters, one by one
The most common quick screen inside the Dashboard, before looking at anything else:
Strength
Who leads today: what is outperforming the market.
Strength + Quality
The same ranking, filtering out strength without fundamental backing.
Long-term momentum
Separates real trend from two-session noise.
Dean Malone
Filters out structural losers before looking at anything else.
Avilas Bands
Proprietary levels to see whether an asset is in a value zone or overextended.
Technical crosses
The alert that something relevant just happened in an asset you were already tracking.
1.4 When the data is updated
Most of the Dashboard updates once a day, after the US market close. You do not need to refresh anything manually: when you log in, you already have data from the last closed session.
1.5 Live consultation
Live sessions exclusive to subscribers, with an archive browsable by year, month and day. Each session is recorded on video together with comments from other subscribers.
1.6 What only the Annual plan includes
SAB Quarterly Portfolio
Three model portfolios — USA, Europe and Mixed — reviewed each quarter against their benchmark. View-only, not editable: this is the portfolio Sergio follows.
Financial Advisor
A questionnaire about your real situation that returns an indicative profile to put your portfolio risk in context.
Annual Contest
Same simulated-portfolio mechanic as the League (10 positions, between 4% and 30% each) but with a quarterly window of 10 days.
Quarters do not pay out their own prize: they feed an annual ranking. 1st wins Institutional Radar — Annual; 2nd, Investment League — Annual.

Investment League
The monthly simulated-portfolio competition. It is not an analysis tool: it is a place to test your process against other investors.
2.1 The monthly mechanic
Each month is an independent edition, with its own portfolio from scratch. During the first 5 days of the month you can build or edit your portfolio; after that deadline, it is locked until the next edition.
2.2 How a portfolio is built
Simulated capital
Starting point for each portfolio, the same for every participant.
Exact positions
Not one fewer or one more — all different, with no repeated asset.
Weight per position
No position can be token or dominate the entire portfolio.
2.3 How an edition is played
While registration is still open, other participants’ portfolios stay hidden — nobody can copy anyone. As soon as registration closes, they are all revealed at once and the ranking updates every day, after the US market close, for the rest of the month.
2.4 Prizes
A minimum of 20 participants is required for an edition to run. If that is not reached, that edition pays nothing: your place automatically rolls to the following month, and what has accumulated is added to that next edition’s pot.
It is not your entry fee that gets paid out: the League guarantees a minimum prize from the first participant, and that minimum grows with each person who joins.
The top 25% ranked in each edition receive a prize — not half the field — in decreasing proportion, with cash prizes and annual Institutional Radar subscriptions. For example, with the minimum of 20 participants there are 5 winners:
2.5 History
Each closed edition is archived with its final ranking and every participant’s portfolio, available to any active subscriber — a way to learn by seeing real decisions from past editions.

Frequently asked questions
Is there a lock-in?
The Monthly plan (Radar or League) renews month by month and you can cancel renewal from My Account whenever you want. Annual covers a full year already paid; you can turn off automatic renewal at any time. Annual Radar instalments are 4 quarterly payments that must be completed.
Can I switch from monthly to annual?
Yes, at any time from your account.
Is this financial advice?
No. Institutional Radar and the Investment League provide information and analysis tools. Investment decisions are yours alone and under your responsibility.
Do I need prior experience?
It is not essential, although you will get more from it the better you know the market. The exposure and strength panels are useful from day one.
What if it is not for me?
Cancel renewal from My Account whenever you want and you keep access until the end of the period already paid.
Do you guarantee returns?
No, and be wary of anyone who does. Investing in financial markets carries the risk of loss.
