Cant find your reply post for that anyways, could you redirect me to the post, please.

They seemed to have removed that thread. I can't find it either. It was a very long thread going back quite awhile. It basically dealt with posts from people who had used it who were happy with the software-me for example-and those who were unhappy with the soft ware and even those who just wanted to criticize it.. You might want to check with the moderator of this thread. He might know where the posts went.

I recently purchased go gecko, and from what i've seen, the stocks that it reveal to you make serious gains, or losses in a short period of time. The problem is, if the markets experience weakness, the stocks recommended get hit very hard.

Heres a brief track record of my transactions beggining on 7/18/05. The results displayed are the percentage gain or loss on the 10th business day

07/18/05
ASTE +29.7%
CRXL +2.2%
TE +0.4%
CTGI +7%
PCYO +1.4%

But when the markets peaked around 08/03/05, the results weren't so pretty.
08/03/05
FTO +8.21%
GIGA -14.47%
SPTN -6.22%
CHRD -9.48%
KRY (unch)

Hope this helps.

I'm thinking about purchasing this software. MX -Technologies the maker of Go Gecko have a very slick presentation. However, I am a believer of the saying "If it seems to good to be true, it probably is," Therefore, I am looking for the opinions of people who have used this software for six months or more. Also would like to know how their customer support is.

I have been using the software for more than 6 months and I find it more useful as a back checker and provider of fundamental analysis information than as stock picker software. It basically throws a lot of information at you, provides a mind numbing set of technical analysis tools and depending on the parameters you have set up will narrow down your possible selections.
I also use MTPredictor software which I find to be a much tighter tool for stock picks. It practically leads you by the hand and as long as you stick to minimizing your losses through trailng stop losses, choosing classical setups and running you winners-short or long, you can definitely do much better than just breaking even.
Their (GoGecko) customer support is prompt and helpful but a grey box, Go Gecko is not.

I am considering GoGecko but hesitant to take the plunge, given my limited experience with this kind of software. I want it to make stock recommendations that make me money, and it's really unclear GoGecko will do that consistently. I'm a novice at this game and would appreciate any advise you can give relative to this product. Also, I would greatly appreciate any other direction you think I should pursue relative to self-directed stock trading. Thanks
