The platform is very well laid out and Dan has obviously put a lot of thought into it. The discord is very useful to get an insight into what others are doing and everyone is friendly.

Screener and Answers to questions

Just sent you an email on this subject. Text follows:

As a new user, I find some issues with your web-site. Perhaps I simply don"t understand.

First, in Q&A , I cannot open any of the answers to questions. I had asked one and received an email response with a link but I would have thought I could see all answers.

Second, your screener is a good concept, but reading your glossary I see no reference in the tool itself to Piotroski and Altman scores or Graham's number which seem to be useful metrics. Second, the results are displayed in seemingly random order and the order differs from search to search. Also your stocktrades numbers are displayed as "Total Stars"

Finally, the export tool does not work.

Still working through Discord and other tools but appreciate the information.

If it is operator error on my part I would be grateful for your advice on how to solve the issues.

Hi there. The correct communication channel for this would certainly have been email yes, because it often requires some feedback in regards to what browser you're utilizing etc.

In regards to Piotroski, Altman and Graham numbers, they're in the glossary yes. I suggest you have a second peek and you'll find them.

Great value for the money

So, I've been with Stocktrades a little over what was a challenging year in the markets. If you are a self directed investor, they give you excellent value for money. They are knowledgeable and give unbiased information. They are accessible to answer questions which was very helpful over this eventful year.

Automatic Credit Card Renewal

I signed up for the special one year introductory deal. After the one year was up I had no intention of renewing. But I just saw a $200 charge on my credit card for the next year. How can you guys be allowed to charge my credit card without my permission? You should have notified my and not renewed unless I responded.

Hey there. I'm sorry you're going through these issues right now. Our platform is a subscription based platform, which is highlighted at the top of the registration form when you sign up and inside the terms of service. Cancellation is available to anyone without even contacting us. In addition to this, we do send out reminder emails a week before a renewal. However, it is hard for us to guarantee the delivery of them, as your mailing provider could classify it as junk mail.

Feel free to send us an email and we can come to a resolution on this!

5 month update

5 month update - my experience has been all I hoped for…and much more.
Dan & Mat not only provide guidance, but explain the reasons behind their suggestions, in language that a beginning investor can understand. This has enabled me to have a much better understanding of what to look for in order to make a good investment decision. Thank-you so much for your help, and patience.

I'm willing to admit when I'm wrong and…

I'm willing to admit when I'm wrong and it's a good thing I did. I used to trade stocks the wrong way and never really made any money. Actually I did make a good chunk of money then proceeded to lose it all with the same risky trading style that made the money in the first place. So essentially in the end I never really made any money.

Since joining Stocktrades Premium my whole investment strategy has turned around and I would now consider myself an investor instead of a trader. I've only been a member for about three weeks and I've already bought stocks that are making money but the main strategy is to buy and hold fundamentally sound companies for the long term, so a short term gain or loss doesn't matter. I think the guys must have learned this from Warren Buffet but either way it's only one part of the equation.

The next part is where do you find these fundamentally sound companies? As I discovered while looking through the website they had done all the research I needed to make an informed decision.

The best part is I was able to get free access to everything for 14 days. That was more than enough for me to take a look at everything and decide if it was right for me. Now I don't know how long they plan to keep that offer available but it's still there as of this writing.

I'm not going review each feature because I can say that I am impressed with all of it. Plus you can see all of it yourself for free, but I do want to talk about the discord server.

If you're not a talker like me then you don't even need to join the discord server because everything you need is on the website. The other option is to simply be an observer. If you do decide to either watch or chat you'll quickly discover that both Dan and Mat are quite active there. I usually interact with Dan every few days and I see him there everyday chatting off and on with other people. I see Mat at least every second day sometimes everyday and if you ask either one of them a direct question they will respond. And if you plan to never use discord at all you can even ask a question directly on the website. Even with all of that they still manage to do all the research needed for the reports and portfolios on the website. So they are very active and involved in every aspect of Stocktrades.

These guys put so much time and effort into this I wonder when they manage to sleep. I think they're just highly motivated to be successful people and that correlates into them being highly motivated for you to be successful too.

BTW. Why only four stars? I never give 5 stars for anything because nothing is perfect so 4 is my best rating.

Stocktrades Family :)

The team at Stocktrades are absolutely fantastic and welcoming, no matter where you are on your financial journey. You can rest assured that the advice and research done by both Mat and Dan are as solid and honest you can come across. In an environment with such a large amount of BS and fluff, its truly a breathe of fresh air to come across such a great and honest group. Thanks again for all the help in getting me on my way!

Low Yielding Canadian stocks

While researching Dan's low yielding Canadian Stocks, I learned that I have to disagree with Dan's list.
Using my many other resources, Dan's recommendations are not only low yield, but very low capital. The charts showed $0.01 or $0.02 gains or fails.
For the dividend yield the common stock price was out of my price range.
I am also getting a lot of unwanted spam, from stocktrades.

Hey there. Sorry to hear you're not liking the platform. In terms of spam, once a user signs up for a premium membership, there is no promotional material sent to that e-mail address. There is a chance you have multiple e-mails in our database. Non premium emails will still get promotional material.

I'm not sure what you mean by the charts showed penny or two gains or fails.

Top Research and Suggestions

I like the research that goes into all the stocks on the platform, the practical ways given to put a portfolio together, and having suggestions for stock picks. The stock screener is also an excellent tool, and I'm also learning a lot from the Q&A section and the discord channel. I'm still learning, and I can say that this is an excellent platform to give me confidence on my stock picks.
