The Hedgeye process takes time and work for success
The Hedgeye process has definitely improved my results, but it takes time. Taking full advantage of the process requires you to think and act about things differently. I added products slowly, making sure that I understood and could use them fully before adding another. For me, the breakthrough came with increasing my initial position sizing. Before that, my choices were binary - hold or sell all. By increasing my position size, I could sell some while still taking advantage of further gains. And I've learned that I'm not great at short selling, so I limit that to what to me are the "best" opportunities (e.g. hedging long term positions).

Top Notch Firm for Experts Only
Hedgeye provides a plethora of great research and a wide variety of products for different types of investors. It is designed for full-time investors or traders. It's very hard to use their products if you're not dedicated or if you're intermittently monitoring your investments like most retail types. Keith wants to coach the hardest working investors and does a great job of it, but beware if you can't keep up and stay nimble.

Professional, honest with excellent customer service.
I dropped my subscription because I just don't trade that much anymore. Favorite program was the CALL. I paid for the subscription at least 5 times with profits in the retail sector alone. Certainly would recommend novice traders to give it a try if you receive a discounted offer!

Very comprehensive and you need to be…
Very comprehensive and you need to be reasonably informed on markets to get the most out of the subscription (S) it’s not a hedge fund that you blindly follow it’s a guide on a process to how you will build your own personal hedge fund. I’ve been in markets 30yrs and the quality of the research is as good as the investment banks I worked for .. My advice give it a go and be patient you will make mistakes but learn from these and become a better trader /investor … good luck!

Hedgeye Real Facts and Information
The information and facts I receive each day are very important and excellent. I no longer listen to many other sources ie CNBC NY TIMES WALL ST JOURNAL BARRONS ETC that I thought were reporting accurate facts. I think the call is very important and useful but I would get more,out,of it if Keith did not interrupt as much.I do love the service and I am a Macro Pro subscriber
Keep it coming

Data, data, date
In real estate we hear “location, location, location.” At Hedgeye it’s “data, data, data” and “rate of change, rate of change, rate of change.” However, the penultimate piece of data is the VASP.
As I enter my third year with Hedgeye, my “process” has evolved. Starting as a neophyte to active investing, maybe, just maybe, I have finally achieved beginner status. There is so much to learn, and so much to unlearn. However, the education process has markedly improved. If you are willing to put in the work and learn how to put it into action, what a phenomenal find is Hedgeye. If you are looking for a simple solution with mindless, dogmatic direction, good luck and keep looking. If you want to evolve and become a new version of your investing-self, step boldly (though cautiously) into the Hedgeye universe.
I live by the “Macro Pro” subscription. The money I have preserved and NOT lost is more than enough to cover the cost. “The Call, The Macro Show, Risk Ranges, CFTC positions with Z-scores, & IVOL/RVOL” start the morning. Then “Early Look” and the recently evolved “Portfolio Solution” get me past the “kiddie pool” into the noon hour. When the Old Wall goes to lunch, and I get to navigate for informed alpha.
I warn my friends that this may be the “Cult of Keith,” but it is a cult that has absolutely helped preserve my hard earned capital (a.k.a. pile). As long as the alpha rolls, I will roll with Keith (even though my family makes me put on the AirPods because they cannot stand to listen to him). My response to that is, oi (X).
IMHO, only a fool would not dive into Hedgeye University for free then decide. Worst case, play it on a “paper” account for 6 months comparing to your old ways. There is little doubt that if you have a process you will migrate to real money before the 6 mos is up. If not you likely have no discipline, are not suited to this approach, and you should go back to just winging it with moving “monkeys.” To those of you I say, “Good luck, and thanks for coming out. We thank you for playing.” We need more of you to contribute to our alpha.
Hedgeye is for winners who are willing to work for it. Game on!

Hedgeye has provided a Graduate level financial education. I have learned more about markets and investing by reading and watching Hedgeye than I could have imagined when I first subscribed. I won't say I have mastered the Hedgeye process at this point. I have not put the time and effort needed to fully execute on the process, but even with my lack of effort, I have successfully traded a Quad 2 and have minimized losses. Without Hedgeye, I'd have a 60/40 portfolio and pray every day that it wouldn't sustain a 45% loss like I had in 2008. Great people and great research.
