VectorVest Australia

[nevieboy]

Hi.
Just received an email from Aussie Stock Forums regarding
VectorVest Australia.
VectorVest claim its the smartest, fastest and easiest to use
share analysis system.
They are offering a 5 week trial for $9.95 plus some bonus gifts
(books and dvd).
Has anyone heard of or had dealings with this mob?
Cheers.

My mate is an electrician and one of his customers uses VectorVest and trades full time. My mate went back to his house and he sat him down and showed him what he does and how he does it and apparently this guy makes a fair quid from it and reportedly made a killing during the credit crisis.

I'm pretty interested in sussing it out myself so I'm organising to get my mate to take me with him back to this guy's house to show me personally how it works.

Will post again with my findings soon hopefully.

I tried Vector Vest for 5 weeks paying $9.95.
My observations are :
They have an excellent data base and comes out with very good analytical tool with buy/sell or hold. The readings are often conservative and IMO it is your call and strategy to accept the call or make your own call. Nevertheless analysis is factual and make your own judgement.

Their buy/sell / hold recommendations are however very dynamic. I have bought ISF based on their buy recommendation just to find out the recommendation and stock listing disappeared from their data base

Having said that I bought TNE on their recommendation and encashed the dividend gain for a short term hold.

They do reply your emails seriously (not like Alan Kohler, Charlie Aitken, Marcus P or Small Cap I where it is the sales guy who fields your queries or never responds at all).

They run apparently free seminars at Brisbane, Sydne and Melbourne. No one cares for Perth except Labour Government to suck the tax from hard working miners like me

IMO $9.95 is less than an MYO Lunch with drink and salad and less than a pint of Belgian beer in a pub. So it is best to fill curiosity with a trial run and judge yourself.

hi

I am in Brisbane and On Saturday 31st July went to VECTORVEST Workshop at Novotel Airport. I signed up for the $9.95 5 week trial

There was approximately close to 100 people

They feed all of us light lunch worth more than the $9.95

I was about to ask about this outfit as well. In NZ they have a training session once a month held by a customer over Skype. I rang this rooster and asked him what he thought of it. His reply " It is hard work but you can make money out of it." He has 50K invested and uses his portfolo in the training session. His motivation is to get the programme working the best possible way by collective input. Looks like only a handful of investors in NZ so I am keen to get as much feedback from here as possible.

i am using it and one HUGE problem is that it is behind in that the OZ markets are open monday and its still showing friday and cant be refreshed

example is CDU was still rating as a buy and it had crashed 55% on the OZ markets and this is UNACCEPTABLE in anyones books

Another example is MML is a buy and then when it updates its a sell or a looser

I have emailed them several times and no answers

I think i can plug the gap using my new software where i can do CONDITIONAL trades myself and at less than 10 dollars too

Bottom line is that if they are marketing software and using an Australian DB then it should be able to be refreshed to todays time and date
otherwise its probably good for longer term trades only

lets see if VV respond
