I've traded off-and-on since the early 2000's. With the explosion of "online" particularly YouTube, the growth of grifters has increased exponentially. People want to make money, easy money, which makes them vulnerable to stock market trading hustlers. I've seen them all. That's why I can tell you that Verified Investing is the real deal. If you want to learn how to make a watch - they have the tools for you to do so. If you just want to know what time it is, you can get that too. Their courses, trading and investing information, much free, is where anybody can find what they need - from novice, to analytical, to strategist - you will be well served at VerifiedInvesting.com. I have.
I am compelled to issue a follow up review based on recent actions by this service. As the reviewer below correctly states, they have erased open losing trades from the site by parking them in a remote corner that even I couldn't find as a subscriber. These hidden open positions amount to many hundreds of thousands of dollars of open losses and thus make what they claim to be profits a falsehood. They claim they moved them to "enhance the member experience". This is a patronizing unserious comment on their part. They hid them because the losses are devastating. Pay attention to the one star reviews. These people are dangerous. They will try to say they can't find me as a subscriber, but I've provided Trust Pilot with proof of my subscription more than once, which is why they publish my reviews.
I am learning many things, specially about methodology
I am learning many things, I see honesty in Garreth ( might be wrong) I like he is so obsessive. Sometimes the App is not working and I get some information late.
I have been subscribed to the Stocks and ETFs service since September 2025. Gareth seems like a great guy, but I think it’s important that i provide my honest opinion that give potential customers heads up. My experience matches some of the recent low star reviews below. In short, the service is not as effective as advertised and losses have been hidden. In September 2025, I joined the service because of the impressive over 90% win record. However, once you become a member, you are able to see all open trades and there were over 10 trades opened as early as 2024 that were making heavy loses but not closed and therefore, no in the books as a loss or advertised. For example, a NVDA short in 2024 was still open. Each of these trades were about 100% loss each, and I’m being conservative. The reason I can’t remember is because as of recently, they’ve all been removed from VI’s books even though they were still open. I elaborate more below. I understand it’s based on probability and therefore not all trades go the right way, but it gets worse. I followed the service into a couple of trades shorting the semis when they were flying and got wiped out because of the lack of risk management. VI do not use stops or give an indication of when to. I didn’t cut loses because I’m following experts, it got so bad that, for example, I was margin called out of the WDC short because I was at a 330% loss. Multiple times, I wanted to ask (not criticise) if there was a plan of action, but comments are disabled and there is no way to connect with the team. I watched the daily videos, but there were no mentions of the elephant in the room, and therefore I was stressed for months. Transparency would have kept me assured, but instead I was in the dark. When I mentioned my experience to a professional trader in my area, he was shocked. Worst part and icing on the cake was that there was a recent update to the app, and all the trades that are pre-2026 that were stil open and making heavy loses, are ERASED. Like I mentioned, there were at least 10 trades making about a 100% loss each, which I’m unable to validate. Furthermore, there was no guidance of what to do with those holding these older trades with losses (including myself), although happy to be challenged with evidence if I missed this. Below is a sample of a couple of personal loses that I experienced that VI had never closed but are now been wiped from their ecords. Disclaimer that the loss % is when I pulled out because I had no view of what the strategy was. Although still losing, I understand some of these have dropped since. I may have held on if there was transparency. - WDC - short - 330% loss (margin called) - STX - short - 60% loss - LITE - short - 80% loss - ZSL - short - 73% loss - and shortly after this loss, Ben closed the service that was leading this trade but fairness, he left a video of his recommendation of how to proceed. - SOXL - cannot remember exactly but big loses in 2025. In the 10 months I’ve been with the service, I’ve experience a net loss of $20k, which is large considering my largest single position trade was about $1200 (I’m learning and conservative). In conclusion, It’s not the loses the upset me, it’s the lack of transparency. The list above are only my personal loses. Like I said, there were at least 10 more trades that were still open, some since 2024, and were loosing in the hundreds of %. I cannot trust this service and cannot support it any further. I’m removing my subscription regardless of how successful they are. I notice that VI are consistent in replying to reviews. Very open to hear your side of the story.
Verified Investing is great on the front end and the back end. When I had trouble signing up for a service they responded immediately and assisted me through the process. I have done well trading with Gareth's Smart Stocks & ETFs service and just signed up for the Commodities service. Thanks for the service offerings.
Ive been a returning customer of VI for a while and I’m very satisfied with the service. They offer quality trade signals and valuable insights into the market, especially in a time like this.
Gareth is an amazing Trader. Gareth has a $1M cash day trading account that currently reflects a $900,000 open loss on an MU short position. Despite being down over $900,000, Gareth entered two additional positions at $1M each 6/6 on GOOGL and 6/6 on NFLX on June 22, 2026. Isn't that amazing?!?! Unfortunately Gareth realized a $12K loss on NFLX. But that is OK because a $12K loss is better than a $900K loss.
THEY ARE PAPER TRADERS They claim that ALL TRADERS are trading their OWN MONEY...NO WAY each of these traders have their on 1 million all you ever need to know is this....NOWHERE on their website do they claim to be trading REAL MONEY in the live day trading room. Even if they reply to this. THEY WILL NEVER CLAIM it is real MONEY. NOWHERE do they tell you that the figures are based on 5 traders, trading a 1 million dollar account each and that the figures shown on the website that says (ONLY if you read the TERMS of SERVICE is deep in there) "STARTING ACCOUNT BALANCE: 1 MILLION" is a hypothetical account NOWEHRE will you read that the PROFITS of 559,231. (as of 16/7/26). Is a Hypothetical example of what a 1 million acount. NOPE you are left to believe that they are trading from a SINGLE ACCOUNT that starts with 1 million and is UP 53% year to date. NOWHERE on the site will you see that in the LIVE DAY TRADING room. They have OPEN TRADES that at certain points have been down as MUCH a 900K (micron short, TME long). NOWHERE on the site will you understand that if this was REAL MONEY the account would be NEGATIVE on the year IF you started with a 1 MILLION account and did EXACTLY their trades. BUYER BE AWARE they protect themselves as it is "EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY" the name verified investing is JUST a NAME!! it isn' verified by ANYONE, or ANYTHING
I am a home trader and only income for me is from trading. I saw some Gareth Soloway youtube videos and looked like he knows what he is talking about and I checked his perfect trading record on webpage and decided to subscribe for Swing Trade Alerts. As soon as I subscribed I saw real trading records with all holdings with big loss and never selling on stop loss. The biggest looser was NVIDIA. I quickly realize that this is the way how you will blow up you account and loose money. With such a terrible risk management sooner or later you will loose money. And when I try to leave comments on their social media platforms about my personal experience and pointing out obvious misleading information about position size, winners vs looser etc... They just delete my comments and block me that I can't comment anymore. They have terrible alerts and trading advises for traders. Stay away from them if you will follow 100% their trades and alerts you will definitely lose money sooner or later.
Read all of the other reviews. They’ve lost their subscribers a lot of money and don’t offer refunds. It got so bad one of their traders quit while I was subscribed. Take my advice and stay away. Theres better services out there and your bank account will thank you later!
If I would trade the way they are trading, I would loose so much 💰 . Honestly I am more profitable trading my way. Their educational services show you how not to trade. Nice people but terrible traders.
Gareth is a bit of too good to be true guy! He seemingly comes with deep professional investing and trading experience. However, what sets him apart is his crystal clear genuineness to guide and mentor viewers in a very relatable manner. While honest and persistent about reminding viewers, as he should, that the viewers should do their due diligence before potentially executing his ideas or analysis, more often than not, his analysis hits the target. He reads the charts like a professor of this trade. He seems to have formed a team with like minded highly talented folks. Wishing the entire team the best ahead, while they set out to impact people's lives in a positive way, in fairly dynamic times. Godspeed!
