Verified Investing Education Recensioni 18

I really find it hard to believe that Gareth has been trading for 20+ years and this is the system that he has come up with for making money in markets. It has got to be the most frustrating and backwards approach to it all. I have been a member for a little over 2 years now and I am just so over it. And if he wants to trade like this that's fine (seems like an awful idea after following his advice for a while) but how could he be presenting this as some learning experience and way to get ahead for retail traders. It is a guaranteed way to get your account blown up. Currently down over 50% on my account total and have already taken big losses on top of this AND had to add considerable money to even meet margin calls on my account to keep these positions. Wish I just bailed a while ago now. I am in a margin call basically daily. Gareth opened a new 2026 portfolio and just totally pretends like 2025 doesn't exist as far as how stretched the account is. Just opens a new 1 million dollar portfolio and starts new and brings up these same new positions over and over that no one who has been in his service the past year would have been able to even get into. We can't even survive with the trades we took never mind be all the sudden adding these big positions now out of nowhere. Like if that's the case then close out all your massive losses your sitting on for 2025 and put them on the books... its just so disingenuous and fraudulent to move on without staying in the thick of it with us. What's crazy is I even waited and had smaller positions and better averages on almost every one of these and I am still getting absolutely creamed daily. Just holds on to every loser forever as they go more and more out of the money. Now he's got this new system where is actually shows his profit/loss live on all his positions. Sure enough all the sudden he's going heavy into going LONG on stocks now. Granted the stocks are beaten down but we are sitting at all time highs on all indices basically and he was just shorting everything under the sun the last year but now once people can see his live trades and profit/loss he switches to going long stocks mostly all the sudden and when markets indices are at these extreme levels. Like what planet am I on... this is the guy that just "built his short positions" for the past 9 months hoping for a correction? Also for transparency he could have transferred over the stocks from 2025 so we could see how out of the money your portfolio is then. I don't want to hear about transparency and how he loves this new system now. Also usually we inch into every position like 1%, 2%, etc. the past 2 years. Now he's going long and starting with 5, 6, 8, 12% of portfolio. I'm just like blown away every day. Never addressed anything just completely flips the script. And since I have been following him I cannot take any of these trades because my account is so blown up right now. I seriously cannot have a winning day any more... if I'm in the green at all in the morning its almost certainly taken back by the end of the day its so insane at this point. I don't blame him for how the markets are right now but he needs to acknowledge this stuff or he will just churn people through his service constantly if this is his approach. Can't tell you how disappointed I am in the service overall. It will work for a short period of time or when he is going long on stocks for the most part but once he starts building those shorts... watch out. He won't stop and the account will get more and more bloated as he swears they will all come in. Also, he adjust the percentages based on how much the position is worth now. For instance... he had I think it was 8 or 12% of SOXS with an average of $8.73 (its $1.66). he recently adjust this down to now 2% because it has lost so much value. Like this should mean its actually taking up MORE of the account because thats basically lost money right now. This is not for retail. If you want to trade like this and have unlimited money apparently, that's fine but don't be recommending people to trade like this its such a disaster. The anxiety from waking up to this account going lower and lower every day and the margin calls is seriously the most stressful thing. I'd rather be in cash honestly, this is ridiculous. This isn't even taking into account that the course actually costs money itself which after seeing the last year is just unbelievable to me. Literally doing the opposite of these trades you would have made wayyyyy more money through this period. Any winners are usually a small % of portfolio and are unloaded at 10% for a small profit. The losers are massive and take up the whole account. It blows my mind that this is what he's come up with to make money and is all excited to do his videos every day with a big smile on his face when this is the product he's offering people. Totally insane... I've had it if you couldn't tell.

Great service and very knowledgeable. Great trades as well!

Worst investment you could make.. don’t waste your money! And do not trust these guys! I wasted a lot of money on gareth’s winning bulshit trader course which was my worst investment in trading… listen to my advice and save yourself the time and money!

I joined (IntheMoneyStocks) now Verified Investing back in 2022. Following Gareth Soloway shorting a Bull Market with no stop out for 2 years now. I have lost 75 percent of my 100k portfolio. It is allegedly true that Gareth is making his money off selling you Technical Analysis videos. Beware of this con. Nick Santiago use to work for Inthemoney Stocks and he was an honest Pro Trader who gave damn. If you buy anything then from Verified Investing then buy Market Mastery taught by Nick. It has finally taught me how to understand the market.

Double charged for a service, refused a credit.
Paid for another service, but all services were turned off after disputing the the double charge for 1st month, giving me NO ACCESS to services paid for, not even honoring 1st 30 days on the services paid for, smh.

in 2023 I paid $5000 (yes 5k) for Gareth's education course. This was sold as a lifetime course. My access to this lifetime course has now been removed. I am one of many that have lost access and feel we have been scammed yet again by Gareth and his company!

Please save your money and find other ways to learn how to trade.

This service is completely misleading and dishonest. Here is a simple analysis, you will see 80%-90% "win rate" which is a pointless metric without knowing the total return. Then you see "Portfolio Return" and it says "Based on a conservative average portfolio allocation of 4% per swing trade." Now ask yourself, if the profits outweigh the losses, would they really use a conservative average? No, they would show the real data because it's so great. They have every single metric. What this is doing is hiding the massive losses which Gareth holds for multiple years to avoid lowering the "win rate". Do the Open positions show current Profit/Loss? Of course not, you need to calculate each one manually to understand how massive the losses are. Next, if you check Closed positions you'll be amazed that the position size is not displayed. They've successfully hidden any reasonable measure of long-term profitability to confuse and mislead people with their "win rate". I watched the "master trader" short tech stocks in a raging bull market for 2 years while holding losers beyond -300% because "they will correct eventually". This is the most reckless, non-disciplined trading strategy. The worst part is watching Gareth in his videos contradict what he's doing in the portfolio.

It is hard to fight market , bull market has been in two years , still going strong , but verified investing has been shorting market for two years . Hope next year big bear market

I agree with most of the comments on the 1-star review. As a current member of Gareth's services, I don't think "scammer" is the correct term. I appreciate Gareth and his knowledge; he is a GURU in his field. However, his services are currently not performing well- IMO it has to do with the way his stracture of buying selling was built.

To elaborate further, I was a member of his day trading membership back when he ran InTheMoneyStocks.com with Nick. I can attest that Gareth excels in communication and market analysis, especially for long-term strategies. but moving it to results in the field, he was and still is in a learning curve of finding the formula to be profitable.

While he has had many wins (which I also profited from), he doesn't highlight his losing positions, which aren't being sold.

*** Each end of year he will get you ready 2 weeks before saying that since we are profitabe (not sure how he came to the math- calculating all trades)
he will sell the loosing positions (which I'm affraid it might be NVDA this year)- to "balance and reduce the tax payment"

Currently, we have many losing positions in his portfolio. One of the biggest is NVDA, which constitutes about 12% of the portfolio (and as far as I know - most traders will probably be in 30-50% of position with NVDA due to Margin calls or other reasons (which Gareth should take in consideration after many years of trading an as he knows- members not always go with the 1% of protfolio when he does- it's not OK of the memebrs, but he knows it for years and still doesn't do much to elaberate on how important it is- you can't ignore human reactions, you can teach them to be much more disiplane (Which I became 3 years ago and still am in a huge loosing position by following Gareth
s protfolio), with an average price below $40 (NVDA!!!). This position started over more then a year ago and has significantly impacted many members (still holding it).

I could elaborate more, but it's clear to those who review the portfolio that it's in a significant losing position. Gareth's market insights and analytics are impressive- and honestly IU think he is a talented and unique person, but even a few losing positions can make the overall portfolio a loss. and worst part is not talking about them, and not educating his members- I burned 95% of my life investing on my first 2 years with gareth (probably due to me being emotional after loosing 40% and more in day trading after following Gareth's trades) and gave it a second chance which I'm ready for it mentaly and emotinoaly but bottom line- I'm in a loose postion and luckily I don't hold most of Gareth's huge loosing positions, and only huge one is NVDA, the rest of his loosing postiton are smaller )7-15%) which I'm pateintely waiting for more then 9 months to get back on track/

I believe Gareth is incredibly knowledgeable, but the system he has in place is JUST NOT WORKING. I've stopped following most of his advertised positions and now wait for 2-3 opportunities (that he is in as well) that I believe have huge potential, which has been the best decision for me since I'm no longer holding his losing positions.

Seeing the whole market go up for such a long time, while we (Gareth's members) are going down each and everyday), is not fun and I undestand we need to wait for the upcoming correction, but overall- bad timing of entrance and not admiting a lose and not selling- will defintely harm his business and moving for a reliable TA to same as other services where advertisment will bring more and more members, but they will not last for long, which as knowing Garteh- it's not what he wants to achive, he cares more about his legacy and reputation

When my one-year subscription ends, I will not be renewing unfortuntley

A note for the new Verified Investing team:

When writing a response, fully understand the issue and identify any flaws in your system.

- Consider exiting positions with significant losses sooner (e.g., NVDA could have been sold 9, 6, or 3 months ago).
OR
- Talk about the loosing positions, with your memebers on daily/ weekly or monthly - don't forget that they are hurting and need the support and knowledge of the "MASTER" and his team, it calms down and make gareth "GREAT AGAIN"

Reduce the number of trades and implement better portfolio hedging - when a 500,000 protfolio becomes $300,000 or less (expecially when the whole market had a huge run and being in opostive position you would have doubled the protfolion) is not fun

- Be more edcuative and add some "Menta" help, discussions, or videos to calm the members

- I think Gareth has an amazing team (I wish Nick would have joined on the "ASTROLOGY" pan and forcsat with long wsing dates of market moves)

- Try to focus on keeping the memers, and approch each personaly to hear the goods and bads in the service

Was a member for three years. Like everyone says…there’s nothing special to his “TA”. He just doubles down at every major level whether it’s a long or short position. Anyone can do that, you don’t need a paid service for that. His use of probabilities are just guesses. Believe it or not i was actually doing really well using his services when I first started. However his call on the bitcoin correction at the end of 2021 was an anomaly I guess. That really put him on the map and now he’s chasing a similar call with his “2008 crash and dotcom bubble thesis”. He’s been soo stubborn to accept that that is probably not going to happen anymore. He has not been transparent about some of these position that are open that are 10+% of the recommended portfolio. These have been well in the red for the last year and some of these at leveraged etfs. He won’t follow any of his stop losses and just continues to double down. He leaves losing trades open so it doesnt affect his win rate. Let me repeat that. HE LEAVES LOSING TRADES OPEN SO IT DOESNT EFFECT HIS WIN RATE. He is a used car salesman with a man bun stay away! Hes been way more wrong than he has been right. If he wasn’t so stubborn about a huge crash coming his members would’ve had soo much more money right now.

Gareth is DEEP in the red shorting a historic bull run on 85%+ of his positions. No stop losses. And MARGIN CALLS incoming (he even admits it on his Daily Analysis Videos for members).

So why on earth would you want to take any of his “education” courses?!

Gareth is a salesman, not a “master trader” as he claims. He wouldn’t bother peddling all these courses if he was. Read the 1 star reviews on Verified Investing Education and InTheMoneyStocks (same company just different name) - his members are RECKT.

So, picture this: I've been stuck in Gareth's rollercoaster ride for nearly three years now. Strap in, folks, it's a wild one. When the market gets a little wild itself, his strategies sort of work... kind of... decently. But most of the time, it's like trying to navigate through a calm sea with a leaky boat. Gareth, bless his heart, insists on shorting the strongest stocks like it's his full-time job. And let me tell you, he's committed! He'll cling onto those sinking ships like they're the last lifeboats on the Titanic. Remember 2023? He was short on $NVDA all year, riding that wave of losses like it was the new cool trend. Now, here we are, down about 50% on a 12% position. And it's not just $NVDA taking a nosedive, it's like he's got a vendetta against every stock that's ever shown a glimmer of hope: $MSFT, $AAPL, $SMH, $GE... you name it. My portfolio? Let's just say it's gone from "champagne dreams" to "tap water reality" real quick, losing about 20% of its sparkle. Gareth's mantra? "Hold on tight, it'll bounce back... eventually... probably." And boy, does he hate stop losses more than a cat hates water. Why cut your losses when you can keep the suspense alive, right? And don't even get me started on his sales pitch. He'll charm you into his education courses faster than you can say "market meltdown." Master trader? More like master manipulator. Sure, he's got the gift of gab, but when it comes to trading, he's about as average as a soggy sandwich at a gourmet deli. Save yourself the headache and the heartache, folks. There are better ways to learn about the markets, and Gareth's rollercoaster ride isn't one of them. Trust me, you'll thank me later. #verifiedinvesting #garethsoloway

I was with the service for almost 3 years. Some of their methods can work decently when the market has volatility. However, most of the time, the market simply goes up and the service encourages you to recklessly short the strongest stocks. If you follow the trade alerts, you will end up with very large short positions in all of the strongest stocks. In 2023, member's portfolios were short the strongest stocks in the AI space and magnificent 7 while they continued higher and higher. Many members even received margin calls and were forced to take massive losses. Some positions in the portfolio were down as much as 200%. My portfolio lost about 20% of it's initial value but it would have been much more if I had not gotten out when I did. They will tell you to stay in these massive losing positions for years and tell you how they will eventually come in. Often they do, after years, of holding onto dead money and paying the short dividend out. They also refuse to abide by the stop losses so that they can keep their win rate elevated and sell their services to more people. They will also pressure you into taking the education courses, and call themselves master traders. The only thing they are is master salesmen and very average traders. They have very poor risk management and understanding of overall market trends. The day trading service is a bit better but even there you need to be careful not to end up holding a "day trade" position that they decide to turn into a swing trade so as not to affect their win rate. There are much better ways to learn about the markets and Verified Investing does not consistently beat the market, in fact they usually underperform significantly in most years, even providing negative returns. You may have some initial winners, but overtime you will fall into these massive losing positions and be stuck in them for a long time with significant losses. Stay far away. Don't fall for the promises made by this service, the stress, frustration and losses you will inevitably encounter are simply not worth it!

He plays connect the dots on the charts and just keeps averaging into his biases. Compounding losers and not stopping out, flexible stop losses and moving his stop to maintain his 90% win rate.
Mainly making the service looking better then it is because he does not show his position size on his trades just the % gain or loss. So he could have 3 10% winners but only on 2% of his account while 1 10% loser of 10% of your account would rinse all the gains. Would be a honest service if he showed his sizing on his track record.

My goodness me, please do not waste your time and money. This is not education, it is a bunch of useless tips and tricks to get subscribers. What a waste!

This is just a re-wrapped version of In the Money Stocks

RUN for the HILLS!! I have put ALL his trades for 2023 into a spread sheet. If you started with 100,000 and took every trade with the percentage he had. You would be up about 15% (15K)....sounds great right?

WRONG - THE SPY is up 20-25% Year to Date!

Double WRONG when you add in his massive bag hold trades he still has opens. These are from THIS YEAR....
Doing the math with just (NVDA 12%, QID 10%, GE 7%, SMH 5%, AAPL 8% of portfolio) you would be up roughly 2% (2k).

TRIPLE WRONG - Once you add in the yearly cost of 1200 (99.99 a month) you are not even up anything.

Fact is he blocks everyone who post the TRUTH, ask him questions, etc. His real money comes from members and day trading.

His day trading is okay but you can never make as much as him cause you have to be careful as you use leverage day trading.

Simple fact is to run for the hills or do the exact opposite of him and really make money

Ok, does Gary Soloway know some stuff about investing, yeah, sure he does. Here is the issue and why you shouldn't touch this product. He doesn't acknowledge losses. He has positions on SOL and AVA that hit their stop losses and he just ignores them like they're not losses. Not only did they go well over their Stop Losses, but they were both the biggest positions. This recommendation has taken my portfolio down by a substantial amount. I can accept losses in investing, but lying about it is BS and that's what he's doing. You can't claim 97% wins or whatnot if you just flat-out ignore your losses, big losses, both the biggest positions. Give me a break, that's unbelievably dishonest. That's scam-level stuff. IF he was honest about these losses, you could recommend it, but it's all a lie if not.
