My subscription is new but I have followed the success of the Gorilla for a long time. After my brother in-law bragged about his success over the past few years, I compared my own results and admitted that he was a smarter investor - so here I am.

The trades have been sound and yielded a profit for me (paper and real money). As a realistic investor, I am sure that there will surely be losses along the way, but they will pale in comparison to the profitable ones. I have also been very impressed with the notices and follow-through. The recommendations are clear and easy to follow. Keep up the great work Gorilla!

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 [email protected]. We would certainly appreciate your feedback! See you in the jungle!

I have been a customer for about 6 months so far and very happy with the service so far. The picks have been very strong and my account is up quite a bit. Not all picks are winners but more winners then losers. If your looking for a solid service like this I would give them a try.

The Gorilla gives you the pick. Nightly e-mails provide guidance so you're not on your own. Simple system that yields BIG results. It doesn't get any better. One trade will more than cover the subscription. Following the Gorilla is the best financial decision I have ever made. Try it and you will not be disappointed!

Honestly yes at first the name alone had me a little suspicious and every time I saw they would want me to try their free trial no credit card needed I figured why not just fill it out at the same time I was trying other trials so I really never ever gave gorilla trades an opportunity until my other trials ended " thank god" but at that time I had a week left to use the gorilla trade trial, I was shocked all in one week I recouped everything I had lost using all the other websites that claim they are the best well I'm telling u gorilla trades is the best by far just give them a try and u will be happy you read this review! Good luck trading or better yet forget the luck just jump on gorillas back and see your trades and profits add up like crazy.

Ive been trading stocks a very long time. While I certainly dont know everything, I can tell you that Ive tried many different stock picking systems over the years. The Gorilla, by far, is the best stock picking system Ive used. The daily Gorilla email is very easy to understand, and executing subsequent Gorilla stock purchases is a snap. In addition to potential stock purchases, the daily Gorilla email also contains a brief summary of potential stock buys, a Gorilla stock portfolio update, and concise commentary of the state of the market (which is actually interesting to read, unlike most of seen in the past). Most important, take a look at the Gorillas portfolio of stocks; the numbers speak for themselves; Ive made money with this system. Last, when I was new to the system, I had a question and emailed the Gorilla. The response was within 24 hours, and thorough. Happy investing!

Crisp and to the point market analysis and only the strongest stocks recommended for purchase. It can't be much simpler than this! The Gorilla's system has produced consistent results for me upon joining. Trust the process, be mindful of the stock's trigger price and stops and you'll be on your way. Some of the strongest recent examples: MU, ABBV, CRUS all within 10 trading days! The 30 day no obligation trial will help you see how it all works. Make sure to view the system tutorials for maximum understanding of the method. The special situation picks are icing on the cake and are value added to this already remarkable service.

I have found the Gorilla Trades service allows me a consistent way to make money in the stock market. No service is 100% on every trade, but my experience has been a very good one. Matching this service with basic technical chart watching is a powerful combination. Timing when to get in and out of the trade recommendations by watching a daily or weekly chart is a safety net. I highly recommend the service.

I have tried MANY services over the years, and I have found a few that were OK. But GT is the only one I have stuck with, and for good reason! When I first started using the system in the early 2000s, I tried to outsmart the system by buying picks in aftermarket or premarket to try to get ahead, leaving me with picks that quickly reversed course and produced losses. But after I actually started following the gorillas recommendations, I have never looked back. Look-not every pick will be a winner. LOSSES HAPPEN. I have incurred MANY losers over the years, but with GT my profits ALWAYS outweigh the losses. As a matter of fact, as I write this review I currently have 17 different stocks that gorilla recommended over the last 5-6months that have double digit profits. Hrg +14% aapl +17% incy +33% alb +11% tsem +25% dd+11% nflx +17% swks+23% lrcx +18% avgo+27% wal +33%. And more. If you want to fact these numbers, go right ahead they list all of their trades WINNERS & LOSERS for all subscribers to see

This is not my opinion, these are the facts. Truth be told, I only decided to share this post after my nephew was duped into trying some fool proof investment strategy, which advised him to bet big And ultimately, he lost big. Hopefully this review will steer a few traders away from the get rich quick programs that promise big returns and DONT follow through. GT works

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 [email protected] and we will be glad to further clarify any of your questions.

Dear Gorilla, I am sending you a banana bouquet,
Using The Gorillas price parameters
I designed a trade and purchased $112 06may16 call options at 3:55pm 0n 27april16 for $2.64 with the expectation that the Gorillas first target of $120.50. Would be met after earnings.
The announcement took place five minutes later at 4pm 27apr16. The stock immediately popped to $117.50, then climbed to $121.00 or so.
I sold the Call options around 10am 28apr16 for $7.66.
The Gorilla consistently delivers outstanding trade setups. I made enough from the trade to pay for a decade of service. Regards, Mark

My success with GT
April 18, 2016

I was using another service during the last correction on 01/2016-02/2016 and I lost a moderate sum of money, which made me sick to my stomach and gun shy trading for the time being I started using GT and I am happy to say I made up the losses I sustained. Plus I covered my subscription cost and maintained a reasonable return even though this is a tough market that seems to lack volume. This is an excellent simple service. I have made errors using the system. I let my emotion get involved and I was shook out of some positions that a week or two later reached their first target. I missed out on a considerable profit. I know now to trust GT. Just follow the tips, set your stops and achieve success with GT.
People who complain, I assume think every trade will be a winner, but that is unrealistic expectation. You will have many winners with GT as long as you follow the tips and use confirmed picks, but don't get me wrong, some will be losers also. The service is easy to use.
The education does not teach you how to trade with a broker, but it teaches you how to use the system. It is important to follow the guidelines.
I have used systems such as vectorvest (too expensive), action alerts (long term positions with no stops implemented), leaderboard (expensive and small number of picks), but I do like IBD. Out of them all GT is the simplest, get your evening email, research potential picks, wait until they trigger and confirm, sell 75% at your first target.
I love the service and I make more money with it than without it.
