Verified Investing is an amazing service! I can't recommend them enough!

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.

Hi Hunter,

First, congratulations on such a massive profit that you've taken in your portfolio so far this year. That's something to be proud of and we're deeply grateful to have helped contribute! 5 years of trust means the world to us, and we're glad to hear from you as such a longtime member.

The fact that you've been able to apply the education that we teach through the Winning Trader Series and our Smart Money:Stocks & ETFs service towards your own trades is important to us. While our team's happy to provide trade alerts, its our goal to empower our members with the education and insight to help them make smart decisions for their own strategies. Personal responsibility and adaptability is what separates short term from long term success, and it definitely sounds like you've come a long way!

Our chart focused approach is important to us, and we're honored to be part of your trading journey. We look forward to continuing to serve you for years to come!

Sincerely,
the Verified Investing team

Why I picked Verified Investing as a new Trader

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.

Thank you for such a detailed review, especially from a newer trader! That experience is really valuable to us. We're so glad to hear that you've found value in all of our Pro Traders here at Verified Investing.

Discipline and structure go a long way to building up long term success, and we agree that starting small can be a great way to take your early step as a trader. It means a lot to us that you've chosen Verified Investing to help start your trading journey, and we wish you luck and success on evolving your trading out of a hobby and into a full time gig!

Losing trades erased

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.

Dear Jonas,

We respectfully disagree with the implication made here. Verified Investing does not have the ability to remove reviews at will, nor does Trustpilot “take sides.” Reviews are only moderated according to Trustpilot’s published guidelines, which apply equally to all businesses and users.

We take transparency very seriously. Our trades, open positions, and track records are displayed directly within our services, and members are free to evaluate the information themselves.

We stand by the integrity of our team and methodology, and we're committed to providing education and transparency to our community. We sincerely hope that you'll give our service a try again in the future. All of us here at Verified Investing wish you success on your future investments.

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.

Verified Investing is a 10 ⭐ service

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.

Dear Mike,

Thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear that you've found the trades our team takes valuable for your strategy. We do wish to clarify expectations around interaction. Verified Investing is an educational platform, not a hedge fund or social service, so we don't offer direct member to member chats or networking options. That said, our Apex Live Day Trading Room does provide members the ability to submit questions directly to our Pro Traders while live throughout the day, and our team responds back in real time when market conditions allow.

We always strive to balance technical analysis with the fast pace of the market. When volatility is high, our team focuses in on the trades they're bringing to our members but we do continue to review charts and levels throughout the session. Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience, we hope you continue to tune in with our team!

Sincerely
the Verified Investing team

Inflating Trading Results With Bad Math

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.
