March 26, 2021

I made my 1st gorilla trade 5/24/20 and just closed #24 on 3/24/21. Overall return on my account is 15%, plus I incidentally picked up an additional $1295 in dividends while holding my trades. A nice bonus the gorilla hasn't mentioned. By the way, I started out using the free trial and made enough money during the trial to pay for the subscription. Their best advice is to always have an exit strategy. Regards, Anthony

None Better
November 29, 2020

Praise be to GorillaTrades. I have been trading stocks with GorillaTrades for about a year, now. Ken Berman and his staff have built a stellar business model that is second to none. The Gorilla has the subscribers best interests at heart, always, with his transparency and forthright commentary in an effort to keep his subscribers on track to enjoy bigger and better gains. He isn't going to present any old recommendation. When the Gorilla makes a recommendation, chances are it will be a very good one. I recommend signing up for a GorillaTrades trial subscription. You won't regret it. Happy trading.

Gorilla Trader Works!
February 22, 2022

Gorilla Trader is a unique investor system. Based on principles of value and momentum analysis, it provides a straightforward manner of investment. Subscribers receive frequent and clear communication. Over the 5-6 years I have been with the system, I have learned a lot about making controlled, disciplined decisions which is the great advantage of Gorilla Trader. The system succeeds both in growing and in protecting assets. I highly recommend trying the system for a reasonable period of time so you can decide for yourself.

I have been using Gorilla Trades for a while now and have been very pleased with the research as well as the market commentary. The content on the website is full of ideas that will make you money if you follow the rules that the Gorilla has developed. In fact, during my 30-day free trial, I invested in a company that was covered and have made enough profits to cover the next 20 years of my subscription.

Gorilla Trades covers all of the critical things you'd want out of a trading service. It is rare to find a service that makes public their track record from day one! Gorilla Trades does that. Communications? Gorilla Trades gives a mid-morning update, a daily after the close report and a weekend update. Anything that happened to one of their recommendations gets discussed, not hidden and forgotten. There is also a text service that notifies you of any actions taken on their recommendations. Their initial recommendation will provide the entry price, the stop loss price, where to take first and second profits. Adjustments to these levels are clearly stated when made. Their money management strategy is just one of the things that sets Gorilla Trades apart from the rest. If you have any questions, an email gets a fast reply. Gorilla Trades covers all the bases thoroughly.

I started using Gorilla Trades on 1/21/2021 after trying the free trial they offered. I have been extremely pleased with the quality of the picks offered. I have a very small trading account and only buy options. This is not recommended by the founder, Ken Berman, but it is what works for me. I have found that if I go out several months this strategy seems to work. I have noticed even during some of the recent volatility these stocks hold up. I don't look for big gains but 50% to 100% in 1 to 4 weeks is OK with me. I do miss out on some big winners but the gradual increase is fine with me. I don't mind reentering a trade either due to the low fees charged. I have done both straight options and vertical call spreads. Always a little buyer's remorse when a stock spikes and money was left on the table. I have been totally impressed so far. Ken's daily recap and advice is a great benefit……... Joe P.

Amazing Service
January 22, 2021

I've been a subscriber of Gorilla Trades for many years. The service is amazing. Very easy to use and the stocks picks are spot on. The cost of the annual subscription is worth every penny. One trade pays for it many times over. I love the simplicity of the Gorilla Trades process. Every pick comes with a full analysis of the company, risks and rewards. Each pick comes with an entry, stop and two targets. The website is full of information to help you make money. The Gorilla app is awesome as well. I love this service as it helps me make money and save time. Highly recommend Gorilla Trades. Awesome Service!

My brother introduced me to Gorilla Trades. It has been fantastic. It provides advice for WHAT companies to invest in, WHEN to invest in that company, and WHEN to get out. Gorilla provides charts of the performance of stocks they recommend. The head man provides video answers to questions from subscribers on a weekly basis. Subscribers get weekly emails with new recommendations and stocks that are strong enough to desire additional investment. They also provide adjusted target prices and stops when conditions are right for the stocks they recommend. In addition, on a yearly basis they provide new subscribers and current subscribers package savings on the subscription price. I really appreciate what they provide and how they provide it.

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.

I use gorilla trades service side by side with Investors Business Daily. I just started to use Gorilla trades for less then a year, but I have made money on all 5 of the sites recommendations. I do not know how good the performance is in a bear market because we have been in an uptrend for the past 6 months. Highly recommend, you will pay off the subscription in 0ne trade

I've been a Gorilla trades subscriber for quite a while and decided to start trading options again after not doing so for a couple of years.

From June 16 through August 20, I won on 8 of 8 Gorilla Trades option ideas, plus 3 of my own and more than doubled my account in 9 weeks! My only mistake (regret) was not trading the LULU options recommended by Gorilla Trades because they would have been winners too!

The cost of Gorilla Trades annual subscription is a drop in the bucket compared to the return I've been able to generate.

Thank you, Gorilla Trades!

Actionable information!
November 25, 2020

I've told many people about The Gorilla service.
Instead of promising unattainable pie in the sky, the service sets realistic goals backed by sensible reasoning.
For those who do not want a "set it and forget it" strategy and don't have the time or knowledge to do their own research, the service is perfect. They arm investors with actionable information and then they can pick and choose to be part of their investing process. I am very pleased with the service.

As stock picking services go, this has to be the worst. I signed up and in less than 60 days after following all the picks provided I lost over $3000. Every pick but 2 went down dramatically with most of them hitting the recommended stop loss. Please stay away from this service, they have no idea what they're doing.

Steven, we are disappointed to hear that you were not satisfied with your GorillaTrades experience. After a review of our communications, it appears as though we did try to resolve your issues by extending your free trial at no cost, reemphasizing the importance of fully understanding the GorillaTrades system before investing, as well as reiterating the market’s performance and how that should factor into your evaluation. However, during the time frame in question the Nasdaq fell by 2.3%, the Dow fell by 2.5%, while the S&P fell by 3.6%. Please note that during this same volatile time period, there were a total of 28 losing transactions averaging approximately 8.2%, while there were a total of 44 winning transactions averaging approximately 9%. Thus, not fully adhering to the Gorilla’s advice can certainly result in losses, especially in pursuing the most aggressive strategies during such a volatile period. But if you followed the Gorilla’s recommendations, any losses incurred during this time period should have been minimal. Additionally, if you owned any positions outside of GorillaTrades’ recommendations, we are sure that you felt this market decline in these positions as well, as this decline was not exclusive to GorillaTrades’ recommendations. With that said, the Gorilla strongly believes in the importance of removing all emotions from investing. As any good investor knows, losses will occur. The key to investing is to minimize your losses while riding your winners, and we believe we have been successful in doing just that. Please note that even after we repeatedly attempted to fix the situation and offer our personal attention to address your concerns, you continued to send in vulgar and offensive emails to our staff and refused to acknowledge any of the facts presented or any of our suggestions. In any case, feel free to contact us directly at thegorilla@gorillatrades.com and we will be glad to further clarify any of your questions.

Ill admit at first I was skeptical having a primate picking my stocks for me but after giving the gorilla a shot back in 2007, I have been a loyal subscriber ever since. I have made money hand over fist following the gorillas rules of the jungle. The key is to follow their system and dont let your emotions get involved! Pretty easy! Thank you mr. Gorilla for making the past 8 years profitable ones!

Pleasantly Surprised...
January 25, 2018

After a few bad experiences with other sites, I can say the Gorilla has overall met my expectations. While all stocks chosen are not winners... their success rate is better than average. But what has really exceeded my expectation are the option picks. There have been some very nice recommendations. My only hope would be that they would offer the same type of communication via text for options as they do for the stock picks. Or at least offer a specialized options service

S Y, thank you for sharing your experience as a new GorillaTrades subscriber! We are sorry about your previous poor experiences, but we are pleased to hear that you have had such success with the Gorilla's Options recommendations! Regarding your suggestion, text alerts are only sent for stock recommendations. The Gorilla does not want to mix in this very aggressive strategy with our normal GorillaPicks, as not every GorillaTrades subscriber actively trades options. With that said, we look forward to being your financial service of choice for many years to come, so if you have any other suggestions or improvements to recommend please contact us directly at thegorilla@gorillatrades.com. We would certainly appreciate your feedback! See you in the jungle!
