I have been using Vestorvest for a number of years and once you set your trading strategy. Vectorvest is instrumental in success. I use Munger's "Value Investing" based on company value and the notion that shares tend to drift to their asset valuation. I use Vector to give me valuation and the math that I need to assess that then the VST to identify shares. In doing I I identified Gold then sell, Then Iron ore, and sold when the VST on Fortescue said sell. Vectorvest combined with a good strategy is invaluable as said 30% per annum...

This an excellent platform that provides strong tools with daily commentary to support your trading success. They post an excellent weekday post market update with analysis of the days events and the impact on the market and the timing and direction of the market. If you follow the market commentary you will optimize your ability to get in to the market and when to get out. I have been a member for 8-9 years and taught some classes and attended an excellent member group whose objective was to answer questions and train individuals to learn how to optimize the platform and build effective strategies. The best charting system I have seen. I will say I have been trading and investing for 40 years and wish I would have had this system my entire career as an investor. I have had a very successful investing career but it has become even better with the Vector Vest Platform.

I just received my Visa bill to find I was charged $895 for an annual renewal. I stopped using Vectorvest 7 months ago because it did not meet my needs. Upon calling Customer Service, they said I agreed to auto renewal in the sign up process a year ago. I said I would expect a notice before they would auto renew something so expensive. They said they are not obligated to provide notice. Customer Service said they would prorate a refund with an additional 4% fee. Since the Visa posting process creates a delay, the bill for the prorated time and the 4% penalty amounts to $185. This is a complete rip off for something that I have not used for months nor found very helpful.

Fred H must work for vector vest... I don't know one serious investor that uses this site. Vector vest claims that "Dr. Diliddo" knows how to time the market... trust me when I tell you, theres not one person on the planet that can time the market,, especially not this crook. Do some research before you sign up and save yourself the headache!

Sleazy Sales
June 1, 2022

I attended a webinar, where I did not learn much about options trading. I could see through the juicy bits that may entice you. The host made a hardsell towards the end of the hour to buy a $2000 value options course for $495, and then suggested buying it for $295 with full money back if we buy RIGHT NOW before the end of webinar. Great, I was almost convinced, so I did a hygiene check on Trust Pilot.

Holy cow! These guys DO NOT ALLOW CANCELLATION on email or online? Read and repeat that once more. You need to call (where some desperate sales association on commission pleads with you to stay on), and the options trade software after the course is $295/mo.

So you cannot cancel, you need an expensive software (which apparently is buggy and not very reliable), and customer service simply does not exist, unless you post a negative review on trust pilot. No thank you!

I am simply writing this to alert other prospects to do their homework before giving in to sleazy sales tactics. I almost did.

Oh also, they send a ton of emails.

I use it with IBD. I find that the combination of IBD and Vector Vest excellent cell phone app can't be beat. The app is great for following a portfolio so that you know where you are with a stock and also setting up watch lists. I get most of my stock picks from IBD. Best thing to do is turn off all VV emails.

It's not bad for a paid service, but I feel that price is a bit too high. If the price were better I would probably have left 4 stars. To their credit they offer a trial so you have the chance to test it out

Computer Program works most of the time. Support is spotty at best and the support group at VectorVest rarely answers email except for an automated email that tells you they will respond - which they don't. Phone support is best to use but be careful of who answers the phone. Some people are absolutely GREAT - other people are a total waste of time. They are ALWAYS trying to sell more courses no matter if needed or not!

On a whim vector vest charged me after I called several times as it did not work.
Vector Vest on a whim charged my American express for nothing. Nightmare
After talking to several employees that I did not want Vector Vest to get a credit!
I am almost seventy years old and never had a good company try to keep a customer happy.

OK, But not great
April 6, 2020

It seems OK but way out of time with the real markets. During these crazy market swings I found it way behind the curve. On APril 6 the Down exploded and Vectorvest saif Hold or Sell on almost everything. I did not follow their guide and bought 800 shares of MSFT and sold that afternoon and made $9152. If I had followed Vectorvest I would have missed out on that and more. It does not react to market changes fast enough. So, not for me.

Phone app is great
November 3, 2019

I love the opinion I get from their tools. For the money, its a great "big Brother" to have in making a decision. I read the negs above and hope they have changed their exit fine print. I am glad to have app - for sure.

Bait and switch
May 11, 2020

Tried the service for 2 months, not very good at all especially the derby, the guys don't have good suggestions, and the trading styles are not effective. Others in the derby also commented on it not being effective as noted by the fact that the narrator even read it to the group. Called and canceled effective the end of the month and they still billed me an extra month and refused to refund the extra billed amount of 167.00 dollars. You can get all of their features in the Think or swim platform except the derby and robo trader, so not really worth the investment

VectorVest helps you know when to hold, when to sell, when to buy, and if you follow their instructions, you'll do pretty well in stock market. It is very easy to learn and to use VectoVest tools and softwares. They provide country based stock anlysis software. You can use softwares based upon your country location.
