Services has merit -- but please fix the live day trading and close out losing trades (i.e, stop converting to swing).
Overall, Gareth is a talented trading professional. While everyone makes mistakes in investing, Gareth over the last few years using the Swing Trading Service has gotten many key trades right and for good profit. Well done. My main concern with the service is the live "day trading" room. Many of the day trades are profitable however, it is bad that the team holds a number of trades that do not work (e.g., UPST, SE, etc.) for weeks on end. Firstly, they should simply "play it straight" on day trades and if the trade does not work out that day -- close it and take the loss: don't make it into a "multi-week" swing trade. That would help people really focus in and learn day trading -- and understand the true win/loss rate. Secondarily, holding the trades for weeks on end has been "disastrous" thus far. UPST we went in at $37; stock was at $29+ this morning. SE our basis is at $40.20: we have been as low as $35. This is not day trading. Further, this is "dangerous" as day trades held over tend to be more concentrated than a typical swing traders portfolio -- putting the subscribers at unnecessary risk. I have lost about $30K on those 2 trades alone -- and the risks could have been avoided had ITMS not turned them into long term swing trades. Overall, ITMS would be much better and avoid negative perceptions as a dubious offering -- if they play it straight here and truly day trade and not put subscribers at risk. Please play it straight. Thanks.
