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.

GBA good resource A good resource. I admit I don't use the service to its full potential and am still learning how to read charts. I feel more confident in buying a particular stock if my opinion matches the Gorilla but always defer to him as the professional. His opinion always outranks mine. I don't buy all recommended stocks (lack of money) and with the ones I've bought I've lost money more often then I've turned a profit. I question the accuracy of the 'profitability' claims made but don't follow the trades closely enough to make a definitive decision in this area.

GBI have used their newsletter but after… I have used their newsletter but after paying $499 for 2 years its been not worthy of it. I did make some money initially but after a while you mind as well be trading on your own. The stuff you need is not there but for someone who needs something to read I guess if you have $499 then spend it. I prefer more hands on approach to trading.

GBVery poor service, you won't learn anything Firstly, it's not surprising that most of the people who've given this service 5 stars only have 1 review to their name. (Also, if you look near their review title, you'll see the word 'Invited' which means that the company, Gorilla Trades, actually asked these people to write a review.) Secondly, I joined in Dec'20 and can say it's been a complete waste of money. There is nothing to be learnt here. You get signals to enter trades, and the few I tried made losses or small profits. It just feels like a bit of a lottery ticket. Thirdly, I was excited to join as they had a 'forum' and I had visions of lots of posts, comments, sharing experiences from the other trades etc - nope, it's like tumbleweed drifting along the dessert. Hardly anyone posts there, the 'management' are not active on the forum to answer any questions. The whole 'service' is lacking and pointless. Avoid.

GBWonderful Resource, Excellent Ideas The ideas presented and the information is concise, the stocks advised are often reaching or near 52 week highs and they go higher - the Gorilla is solid, got some Jesse Livermore to him. The option advice has been very good this year, and if one will follow rules as explained, you will be successful. Thank you Gorilla Trades, the subscription is well worth the cost. M Davis
