I have subscribed to IBD for over 30 years. IBD has progressively moved toward an unapologetic money mill constantly urging benign upgrades and now limiting news feeds emplying the carrot and the stick marketing technique. William O'neil at best was a mediocre fund manager who decided to sell the oil lamps with the CANSLIM (can'tswim) investment method that has proven ineffective time and again. to wit the FFTY, a fund that tracks the IBD 50, has performed abysmally since its inception. If this an etf that tracks the performance of IBD's methodology and ideology than doesn't it tell something about the methods employed? The proof of concepts is failing. The center cannot hold and pretty sure William O'neil is either dead or suffers from dementia. The information provided is good however some of the data is incorrect as they don't always reflect the true revenues or debt held by the equities covered because they fail to update. They are on the west coast so they are a bit out of step with Wall Street too. Some may take this as a welcome different point of view but their methodology admittedly has a small influence on the market as a whole; their writeup and selections do very little to advance the volume of any stock they list or promote. They also are shameless in their excessive advertising using popups for discount brokers who advertise heavily on their website. This reflects their bias toward rapid selling and buying which the Discount online brokers enjoy but few who trade often ever make money. So if you can stay away from their voodoo methodology and just use their data as a starting point then you might be able to uncover some gems but remember you have to wade through all the noise and sputum thrown at you to get to the good stuff. I still use it but the quality is progressively becoming more mercantilist and limited with a large ambiguous bias: We are not telling you to buy this stock but it sure looks pretty. The Big Picture will give a nice snap shot but if you follow the market it will just echo what the talking heads are saying. Lastly they are very heavily biased toward the NASDAQ, even though they lag it in performance and most certainly lag against the S&P 500. Also rising interest rates and any hint of a bear market will crush your performance but don't be fooled in trying to time-- timers never win. At IBD you might find some gains on an updraft of a bull market but will lose the death of thousand knives that all rapid cyclers die of. The idea of cutting loses short has been proven time and again to be flawed against a simple buy and hold strategy of good equities some of which you might find in their pages only if you can resist their urging to churn your portfolio with the blessing of their advertising discount brokers.

Swing trader not worth the price. Terribly dissatisfied and disappointing. IBD is just one endless sales pitch...bombarding you with emails and pop up ads. I believe you could just flip a coin, pick a stock and trade it yourself....50/50 chance. Honestly, I actually did the opposite of what they suggested, bought put options when they suggested buying and I made money. 90% of their recommendations were taken as entries early in the day, stock would sell off and I'd be in a losing situation right off the bat. Save your hard earned money. Please.

Terrible SwingTrader department/app. You pay money to follow their picks with alerts and you will watch your money evaporate time after time.

I have been a user of swing trader for nearly two years; I will canceling given that the service is unusable without captchas. This is sad, but literally you can not do the trades. The team could fix this problem if they wanted, but they are actively avoiding this tasks. The team at IBD does not care about this issue, and they do not want to fix it. If they fix it I will re join. I think many people feel like me given the reviews that can be seen on here. PLEASE FIX THE PROBLEM. THE SERVICE IS NOT USABLE! MAKE THE CHANGES NEEDED.

Swing trader is almost impossible to get filled at the prices they announce, thus their "gains record" is based on an "ideal" entry price. Us retail investors is very difficult, if any, to get those prices. I paid for the founders membership $7k for one year. Ended up losing - Moved to Zacks - way different and more satisfying experience. However, I still use the Marketsmith tool - lots of information! This tool I continue to be subscribed. But not to any of the other services

2021 is the choppy market when the Mark Minervini's term "squat" has been flipping us back and forth. But the stock pick of swingtrader has really been a disappointment. Some great winners indeed but overall it's utterly frustrating. I have developed a habit of "doubting" the suggested tickers, to only participate in very few suggested trades, but whatever i've had gained, the next few trades take all back, and even cut deeper to make my portfolio turn negative. Please please I know you guys are working hard to help us make money but I dont wanna pay monthly fee to lose money anymore.

The IPad App only allows your wasted TV/Pod cast. I am deleting my App for IBD. Impossible to get the information they claim to provide you.

i am very dissatisfied with the current update to swing trader, the bots are getting all the trades. you guys made the problem worse not better; i am considering cancelling becuase i just can not get filled at your guy's entry prices. i think many people feel this way; you guys should actually fix the problem; not just not cheap fixes that do not actually address the problem. several ibd clubs are also disappointed with this new ibd that doesnt fix problems. please fix the issue at hand more directly. do not use swing trader until they fix the issues at hand: you will loose money. i get chris and justin are working hard on the trades, but you can not actually do them so please fix that team; you could make a proper captcha set up to get the trades or something similar

After signing up for swingtrader and buying 3 of their swing trade stock picks at their recommended buy prices and losing big on each trade, I have determined this service is a good deal if you need tax losses against your portfolio.
