Service-Related Questions

  1. What does it cost to subscribe to Stock Confidential?
    My subscription fees are very reasonable. A yearly subscription comes out to ONLY $12.50 A MONTH! A monthly subscription is only $19.95 per month, and my quarterly, only $49.95 per quarter. What is more, all Stock Confidential subscribers get a special bonus of one or two free stock trading e-books filled with valuable, "must-know" information on how to find and trade top stock picks.

  2. When will I receive your E-mail top stock pick service?
    Stock Confidential is sent out by email two days a week, on Sundays and Wednesdays. You will usually receive it before 2 PM Eastern Time on Sundays, and between 9 PM and 11 PM Eastern Time on Wednesday evenings. Stock Confidential is not sent out on holidays, and is sent out only once a week (Sunday or Wednesday) up to 8 weeks out of the year, including the weeks surrounding Easter, 4th of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Holidays. In the event of an emergency, our updates may not be delivered for a week or more, depending upon the extent of such emergency, in which all subscribers will be notified by email.

  3. Do you offer a free trial?
    I do not offer a free trial. Instead, I have deliberately made a subscription affordable for anyone. A yearly subscription costs ONLY $12.50 A MONTH!

  4. Why do you send your newsletter via E-mail, versus putting the information on your website?
    I prefer E-mail because it is a more immediate way of getting fresh information to my subscribers. Regularly posting information on my website is also more costly, and I pass my savings on to you.

  5. What happens when my present term ends?
    Unless you cancel prior to the end of your current term, you will automatically be charged for another term.

  6. How do I change the term or my service?
    If you wish to change to a different term of service, say, from monthly to quarterly, or from quarterly to yearly, just cancel the service prior to the end of your current term, then sign up for the new term.

  7. What if I want to unsubscribe?
    Just click here and you can unsubscribe using the button provided, or you can reply to the latest email update received indicating your desire to unsubscribe.

  8. How do I change the credit card or billing address information for continuing my subscription?
    You can go to your PayPal account and revise your payment method at any time.

Content-Related Questions

  1. What is a "breakout stock?"
    A breakout stock is a stock that is in the process of overcoming a well-defined area of price resistance usually on strong, well above-average volume. Once this resistance is overcome, a stock is often free to go up substantially in value. Stocks form certain times-tested chart patterns just before they break out. My goal is to identify those leading stocks that are nearing this potentially explosive period, and pass them on to my subscribers.

  2. What is a "pivot"?
    A stock's pivot, or buy point, is considered to be the price point of least resistance to a stock's upward movement. For this reason, it is also a viable place to consider buying a stock. I provide my subscribers with a pivot for each of our potential breakout and reversal top stock picks.

  3. How many potential breakout stocks and reversal top stock picks do you feature?
    No set number, but each issue of Stock Confidential usually features up to 12 or 15 breakout stock picks and 3 to 5 reversal stock picks, depending upon market conditions.

  4. Why do you provide an "average daily volume" for each potential breakout stock pick?
    Breakouts are usually stronger and more reliable when they are accompanied by a powerful burst of above-average volume. I include each potential breakout stock pick's "average daily volume" because it allows my subscribers to gauge the strength of a stock's breakout. I do not include average daily volumes for my reversal or rebound picks because stock reversals are not always accompanied by strong volume.

  5. What criteria do you use for selecting potential breakout top stock picks?
    I look for market-leading stocks that have strong Earnings Per Share (EPS) readings in the 80's or 90's as rated by Investors Business Daily. These are considered the market's best-performing stocks. IBD's earnings per share (EPS) rating compares a company's last two quarters of earnings and last 3-5 years of growth and stability with that of all other companies. Though earnings and a track record for earnings growth are my most important criteria, I also consider a stock's relative price strength, institutional accumulation (buying), the strength of the industry it is in and other criteria. IBD's relative strength (RS) rating measures the relative price change of a stock over the last 12 months versus all other companies. These categories are rated 1 to 99, so a rating of 90 means that a company outperformed 90% of all other companies in that category. Many of my top stock picks can be found in the "IBD 100" List.

  6. Do you give "sell" prices for each top stock pick?
    I do not give sell prices. I find that each individual person's trading style varies. Some people are long-term investors, others want to take a quick profit. Through my "Trading Highlights" and "Market Commentary" sections, I try to give my subscribers a "heads up" as to the overall health of the market, so they can adapt their trading style to the market at hand.

  7. What is a "rebound," or "reversal" stock?
    A rebound or reversal stock is a stock that is in potentially in the process of exhausting its downward momentum and appears to be getting ready to head back up again. I offer reversals to my subscribers because they provide a viable way to profit from market or stock downturns. Reversal picks can have several entry points as they recover from their downturns.

  8. What criteria do you use for selecting potential reversal top stock picks?
    I look for stocks that have Earnings Per Share (EPS) readings in the 80's or 90's as rated by Investors Business Daily and that possess a combination of chart characteristics that indicate a rebound may be near, such as hitting an area of price support, climactic volume, or forming chart patterns such as descending trendlines or candlestick charting patterns.

  9. Do you publish performance information or a model portfolio?
    While I do not publish a model portfolio per se, a sampling of my top stock picks is posted prominently on my website and frequently updated. My weekly videos also demonstrate many of my top stock picks in action.

  10. What other information does Stock Confidential provide to its subscribers?
    I use selected charts to show my subscribers the kinds of charts that make for the most explosive breakout and reversal situations. I also have a "Trading Highlights" section, which shows you how my featured stocks are reacting to current market conditions, so you can get a "feel" for the market at hand. My "Market Commentary" section gives you a "trader's-eye-view" of what forces are working for and against the market. I even offer occasional trading tips to sharpen your trading skills.

  11. What factors must you consider before becoming a subscriber?
    You must unequivocally agree to our Terms of Use which are intended to protect your welfare as well as my own.
