GBUnderperforms S&P Index Strategy I subscribed for the past year. During this time the service materially underperformed a basic S&P Index strategy. The daily emails and trade alerts are helpful clear. It is relatively easy to follow and implement the trades. The reason it underperforms seems to be focused around reward to risk ratios. The 1st target where they recommend selling 75% usually has reward to risk that is < 1.0 while the 2nd target is < 2.0. The targets can move before being hit, but the math behind this money management suggests that a high win ratio is needed to make the numbers work. When the market drops stops do protect which is good. But it is hard to make up the losses when the targets are so tight. Additionally, after stock prices drop causing stops to be hit, the new buy signals do not happen fast enough to allow an investor to get back in to capture the next round of profits. No question they have some winners, but the overall performance is not as strong as a set it and forget it index strategy.

GBTeaches Discipline I first became aware of GORILLA TRADES from the weekly Investors Business Daily newspaper. After testing and continued following, I subscribed. The charts and the data provided allow for discipline while making a profit. The tutorial is excellent. Keep up the good work!!!

GBThe might sounds of the Jungle I've been in Gorilla Trades for almost two years now and was disappointed in the beginning, since the Market fell and Gorilla Trades also took some hits, but since the Market has headed back north, Ken has been doing an admirable job with his Gorilla picks, with nearly every pick that I've bought showing gains. It's just a matter of staying the course and riding out the storms. David Lubin

GBSatisfied with the Gorilla Stock analysis is great, but spread option suggestions not so much. Appreciate the emphasis of risk considerations, setting exit plans for investments, and the overall approach Gorilla Trades takes with stocks. With suggested option trades out up to 2 months in the future I'd like to see follow up offered on them prior to expiration along with suggestions for exit if price moves in the opposite direction.

GBBasically very pleased.... Basically very pleased.... I wold like to see that when one of your stock remommendations reaches a sale objective but shows potential for additional upside strength based on technical as well as the fundamentals of the stock, then why don't you suggest to us to sell a portion and reestablish (up) the stop to protect some of the gain still remaining in the remaining shares of the stock.I just deplore after the fact of having ileft a substantial amount of profit on the table in a stock with strong momenum. I personally do this on my own but I would like some assurance from the Gorilla that the stock indeed has plotential for continued strength....Thank you, Joe Palmer, retired 3 years ago after a successful 45 year career as a financial advisor in Scottsdale, AZ.
