I can't say enough about how amazing Gareth Soloway and the entire Verified Investing team is! I have been using their services for about 5 years or so (since back when it was "Smart Money Stocks") and have taken Gareth's Winning Trader course.
Gareth is truly a legend! As of today (2/17/2026) my portfolio is sitting up 21.3% YTD (yes, in literally 31 market days). Gareth used his technical analysis methodologies (all of which is taught in his course) to perfectly time the implosions of gold, silver, and natural gas near the end of January. It was an incredible feeling making in literally 2 market days what I used to make in an entire year working as a manager at a big4 accounting firm. Let that sink in... I use a ~$500K capital swing trading account.
Now, I will say, I do not take every single one of Gareth's trades - like a true honey badger, he'll sell resistance against momentum stocks and sometimes gets burned - and sometimes I size up compared to him on setups I really like and I get burned, but that's the beauty of it! He is just sharing (extremely good) information (e.g. real-time alerts with share size and entry price) and you can do with it as you please. I should say, his 2026 portfolio is up ~7.2% YTD (which is >50% return annualized and does NOT count 2025 positions he's closed for gains so I'd bet he's closer to 17-20% YTD like where I am).
I will say, this is not a "fluke". Again, I have been following him since 2021 when he perfectly predicted the (then) top on bitcoin. I was blown away and have followed him ever since. He's the real deal. All chart, no hype, no bs. He teaches you how to mine the charts for literal modern day gold by just clicking buttons (what a world we live in). The team's live "Apex" day trading room is also 100% the real deal and after a few weeks/months trading with them you can get a great handle on how to profitably day trade.
Are the services what some might consider expensive? On a standalone transaction basis, maybe... but honestly, if you have enough capital to trade, the few hundred dollar cost here and there is negligible. Even paying for the multi-thousand dollar learning course seemed like great value when you can literally turn around and make that money back on a single trade...
In summary, I 100% vouch for Gareth and the team. In a world full of phony "get rich quick schemes", Verified Investing is a true diamond of a find that has changed my life and the lives of my family for the better. Gareth and team are out there sharing insights, educating investors, and building a lively community that is a true pleasure to be a part of.

I'm writing this as a new trader so that other new traders can see why I decided to join with the Verified Investing Team.
First thing that I want to say is that this is a great team. I love working with Gareth, Ben, Lawton, Drew and Liz during the trading sessions and benefiting from their guidance on why they are picking their trades, how to pick entry and exit points and when to take profits and cut losses.
I've always been an investor, but primarily with a long-term focus such as building for retirement. I became interested in Verified Investing after conversations with my brother and sister-in-law who have both used VI's swing and day trading services. Their positive experiences convinced me to try myself, even though I have an overall novice skill set.
The biggest thing to know as someone considering joining is that the VI team have posted on their web site everything that they've done to date informing you of their overall high success rate. In addition, during the active trading sessions they give you specific stock picks with entry and points, add and take profit points and when to cut your losses. If all you do is what they tell you to do, you will be successful. Sure, they have some misses but they all have 80% or greater overall success rates. Way better than Vegas gives you! Just follow their advice, start slow, start small and you will do well.
Lastly, the advantage that the VI team grants you is a masterclass in chart analysis. I've learned so much about what patterns mean and how it should impact my trading that I'm excited to start using that knowledge to pick more on my own. This is just the information shared during the trading day. An even bigger source of information are the actual classes that they share with members as well as all of the free information that they post on YouTube.
I have joined both the day trading service as well as the Smart Money Stocks and ETF's for swing trades. I actual have two brokerage accounts to manage these separately, which I highly recommend. As a man of a certain age I'm hoping to get good enough with the VI team to turn this hobby into a preretirement gig. So far, my first couple of months are showing me that I've picked the right path with the right team.

I have now written 3 reviews about Verified Investing, stating only facts about what happens within. All three has been taken down and called defamatory.
I can tell that Trust pilot is not willing to let me state facts in their service, so now I will let the lone star speak for itself.

I was reluctant at first to join Verified Investing/Apex Live Trading Room, instead I watched Gareth on Youtube every morning at 9am for over a year before gaining enough trust in his methods. As he puts it "Just charts, No BS". I wish I had joined much earlier, I am doing very well with an unbelievable success rate of 75% to date, Wow! My account has grown well beyond my initial goals. The education far exceeds the cost. Thank you! to Gareth and everyone at the Verified Investing.

Fantasic service - the professional insights you get from Gareth and his team were crucial to me becoming a winning trader so far - the team work really hard to deliver the right info at the right time - couldn't be happier.

I have only been using this service for a couple of weeks and I am impressed. I made my investment back within days. I appreciate Mr. Gareth podcats at 9 AM and at the end of the day. Clear and NO BS. Only data based on technical charts.

VI provides significant education with the Deep Dive videos and the portfolio review videos.
Gareth and his team are well versed in market trends, behavior and signals.
They keep the information simple and easy to understand and do not fill their screens with excessive indicators which tend to confuse more than educate.
The trade alerts are excellent and timely. I just recently started in the live trading room. I haven't yet taken a trade but I plan to get involved in the next week or so.
The real time information is excellent. Being able to hear the traders explain what they are doing and why is a great learning feature for me.
Overall I am very pleased with the services.
I started with SMART MONEY COMMODITIES then added SMART MONEY STOCKS AND ETF's, then SMART MONEY CRYPTO. Recently, I finally added the APEX LIVE TRADING ROOM.
My only suggestion is to consider 1 monthly fee that covers all of the SMART MONEY SERVICES.
Maybe SMART MONEY VIP for x amount per month, while leaving the trading room as a separate service (as is).
Overall, 10 ⭐ and highly recommend it.

Very likeable guys. Good trading calls, just not enough time given to chart trades, as well as inability to converse with other fellow traders.

Reply from Verified Investing
I am grateful for Gareth's instructional videos, and stock tips.
I am now on the gaining side of stock investing thanks to Him.

Relentless pursuit of trading possibilities.
It helps if you have prior knowledge of Technical Analysis, but not a necessity.
BECAUSE Verified Investing offers a wide range of courses teaching Financial Market Analysis using the Technical Analysis tools.

Reply from Verified Investing
The team provides excellent investment decisions with sound analysis. I haven't seen anyone has such consistent short term and longer term analysis with such a consistent track record. My returns have dramatically increased since joining. Highly recommend!

Here is the exact quote from Soloway himself last week on a trade gone bad:
Buy ZSL
Entry: $2.85 (Approx 3% of Portfolio)
Average: $3.75 (Approx 6% of Portfolio)
Stop: Confirmation Below $1.75
Target: $6.25
Note: This position was 6% of portfolio, but has fallen to just 3% of portfolio. Thus doubling is only 3% more of portfolio for a total of 6%.
End of quotation. Here is how math actually works. If you have $100 in a portfolio and invest it all in ZSL, 100% of your portfolio is invested in ZSL. If ZSL drops to $90 in value, how much of your portfolio is invested in ZSL? 100% !!!! Soloway's math is incorrectly trying to lower the true extent of losses with this bad math. They've used this same kind of math lowering the true portfolio position with massive losses like NVDA where he has been short for nearly three years and incurred a massive loss on a huge percentage of his portfolio. Additionally, on all of these shorts that have skyrocketed while he claims to have held them (both open and closed), he never considers the carrying cost of the short position such as borrowing costs and dividend repayments. His losses have been much higher than he reports due to the real world costs he literally ignores on shorts that have been a huge part of his portfolio for three years now.
Read the one star reviews on this site. They are factual and real.
Excellent team, highly professional, from whom you learn a lot in a very simple and effective way. Excellent personal work and keep up the good work. Congratulations to Gareth and the whole team. A big hug to all.

Have been subscriber for 15 weeks.Have 15 consecutive weeks of profit. The $150/month fee is well worth the cost.
I don’t do all the trades and sometimes I sell too soon but overall I’m very happy with the service

VF is a real game-changer and an absolute goldmine!
Incredible Experience: Gareth and his team have genuinely put all their vast experience, knowledge, and know-how at our disposal.
Comprehensive Analysis: It's primarily about charts and technical analysis, but Gareth is gifted in combining technical/chart analysis with fundamentals and market outlook, providing a truly holistic view.
Live Trading Advantage: Most importantly, the ability to trade live in the same trading room is a game-changer. While other companies only offer theoretical knowledge, Gareth at VF trades with you live!
Transparent and Honest: The transparency, honesty, and integrity are unmatched.
Proven Results: Thanks to the professional guidance and the live trading room, I am now profitable with my trading activity.
Highly recommended for anyone serious about successful trading

I wanted to share that everything has been going great on my side, and I’m very happy to be part of your community. I’ve been following your YouTube channel for quite a long time, and I truly appreciate the analysis and market vision you provide. Your content has helped me a lot recently in understanding the market more clearly.
So far, all the trades I’ve entered with the Benjamin Pool have been profitable, which I’m very pleased with.
