“Consistent”

Anthony M.

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

“Outright theft and they just ignore you.”

They literally stole money. About 1k off my account. A female on a power trip. Watch out. Wolf in sheeps clothing. Stay away from this broker. Outright theft and they just ignore you.

Sehr einfache verständliche Empfehlungen. Nicht jede Empfehlung und auch die Parameter stimmen, aber zum größten Teil ein sehr guter Dienst und zum weiter empfehlen.
Bewertung: weitaus empfehlenswert.
Und durch Weiterempfehlung kann man bei GT auch etwas direkt verdienen bzw. Sparen.
Großartig.

Gorilla Trades is the best stock investment web site I have encountered, although it is not as impressive as the Gorilla would lead you to believe. Let's review its actual performance from June 1,2021 to the end of August. During these 63 trading days, 52 selected Gorilla picks triggered and 38 of these also confirmed. Of the 38 triggered and confirmed picks, 17 reached their first targets, 14 hold unrealized gains that average 1.18%, and 7 of the 38 dropped below their stop loss prices.
Of the 14 that triggered but have not yet confirmed, 7 dropped below their stop loss prices while the 7 others remain active in the current Gorilla Trades portfolio with a "Not Yet Confirmed" classification and unrealized losses that average 0.13%.
However, if one looks at the end-of-August Gorilla Portfolio only 38 of the 52 triggered Gorilla picks are present, the 17 that confirmed and reached their first targets, the 7 that confirmed and hold unrealized gains, and the 7 that triggered but have not yet confirmed. Some have mistakenly assumed that these 38 "active" stocks are the only ones that were picked by Gorilla Trades from July through August, an erroneous assumption that substantially enhances the Gorilla Trades performance.
What the Gorilla's portfolio cleverly (some may say deceptively) omits are the 14 triggered stocks that dropped below their stop loss prices, 7 of which were confirmed. What is true in this case is that in the 63 trading days from June 1 to August 30,17 of 52 triggered Gorilla picks have reached their 1st target prices thus far, while 14 dropped below their stop loss prices. The remaining 21 remain in the portfolio with slight positive average gains, but an uncertain future, especially the longer they remain.
Although the above observations do not support the "explosive" upward moves the Gorilla expounds for his daily picks I believe the overall performance of Gorilla Trades is still impressive (and potentially unbeatable) because investors can and do avoid the purchase of unconfirmed picks and the retention of confirmed picks with unrealized losses.

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!
