I have, but the advertising tagline that the market timing system has "never failed" is complete bull@#$%. It's a tool to use, and it works more often than not. But to say it has "never failed" is nonsense. A few months ago VV flashed a "confirmed down" signal and I went short. That was on a Thursday. The following Monday and Tuesday the market went up 500 points. No problem, I stopped out of my contra ETFs and VV flashed an "up" signal. Fine, no problem. I emailed the gang at VV to ask how they have concluded that their timing system has never failed when the market shot up 500 points two trading days after a confirmed down was called. Not surprisingly, I got no response.
My biggest investing mistake this year has been to ignore VV when it called an upturn in March. I stubbornly held on to some puts in some restaurant stocks, only to see them keep going higher. That wasn't the worst part, the worst part is that I didn't deploy any additional capital on the long side. Had I followed VV and done so, I would have more than made up my losses on my restaurant stock puts. I get my money's worth out of it. Rating :
