The number one criteria with any service with picks is performance. I only gave the service 5 months try, during that time I lost 27% of the capital I had chosen to invest in the picks, buying and selling as suggested. Obviously not a good performance. I was also frustrated that there were so FEW picks to begin with, which meant every pick that came out (you are paying $995/yr for the service) was costing about nearly $100 and you felt nearly compelled to do the pick, whether you liked it or not. My 2 cents, definitely not worth the… Read more »

I recently signed up for Cycle9. I took a large $7 put position on PBR @ .45
cents. Should I add to this if the price drops to .40 cents? Adam mentioned he might be rethinking the energy sector. Please let me know, thanks.

Nothing that comes from Harry Dent or his minions with respect to trading is worth 2 cents. And that goes for Weisse, Davidson, Rickards, Lewitt et al.
They are all great writers but when it comes to trading advice a big fat 0.

Really? Because I joined, and looking at the history, if you made every trade he recommended in 2016, you would have made over 200% of whatever you put in each position.

WHY do you say this? Don’t just blow hot air. What proof do you have? From what I can tell, some positions will lose 100%, but overall you make a lot more than you lose. Unless he is lying about his archives and past trades, which I have seen no evidence of.

glad to see report that offers balance on O’dell/ Cycle 9… did you find time to vet his picks or just move on the GO signal — GREEN ?

Actually, his numbers don’t add up. The option price he indicates as his purchase price is, for the most part, lower than the price you pay. I’ve lost a considerable amount of money with both his systems and have elected for the past several months to read his recommendations as I would read a novel. In my view, playing options his way is like betting on a racehorse.

I’m in the Max Profits Alert, and it’s been a phenomenal loser – I made a lot of money with Harry’s recommendations, but lost it x1.5 with Adam’s crap “system” – not only is it terrible, but there’s very little communication, no answer to questions, and the recommendations are few and far between, unlike the rate at which recommendations were promised. — Adam should’ve done a mea culpa on this one and called BS on himself, because this is a program for how to make the other guy rich.

Am looking at Cycle 9 as possible research tool. Only see one positive. Is “Max Profits Alert” part of Cycle 9? or a lower cost alt.? would you like to share expense and exchange info?

I took a trail for Adam’s Cycle 9 service back in 2014 for a couple of months. The thing that really made me mad was that they claimed a 74% win rate, but when you looked at their performance list (which you couldn’t see until you subscribed), they legged out of a number of winning positions twice, and thus counted them as two wins. Needless to say, they exited out of the losers only once. So overall their record was around 59%, which is very close to 50/50 in my book, and definitely not worth the subscription price. I don’t… Read more »

I think some of the Dent people do a good job but that definitely does not apply to Adam O’Dell. I joined the lifetime network 18 months ago at the cost of $10,000. Since then, single handily, Adam’s recommendations have carved out a 32% loss in my portfolio. He is cocky and so sure of himself, but he does not perform. Even more frustrating is his inability to admit any type of failure. Instead he continually relies on extending the time frame for his results until he can show numbers that he likes. Adam – just answer one question. What… Read more »

thanks for sharing the O’dell info – am watching for sources / research that confirms momentum trade/ trends and macro-events. I’ve been member of Lemetropole which the Gold group (GATA) ..- great analysis of banks ( JPM) and COMEX /market manipulation/ SEC cover-ups. Could we review results and help this community with insights? Will share info …

I wish I would read these reviews before I subscribed to Cycle 9. I have been a member for 10 months. There were 12 recommended buys. I tracked all buys & sells on a spread sheet. here are the results; 4 loses 3 were total loses. one trade was break even, one small profit & one profitable. Three trades I did not make because of 4 loses almost in a row. After 6 trades I had 4 losses and lost faith that Adams system works. I did not make the next 3 trades. I had lost $2500 so I bought… Read more »

So far I have been doing quite well with Cycle 9 over the past 4 months (July 2017) We will see how things do when the market turns.

Why not go against his trades if he is that bad? You then would have a profitable position.

Really a service without any value. $995 for nearly nothing. How is it possible that a Harvard
educated man as Harry Dent fully promoted this very bad idea. I will ask a partial refund.
Has anyone gets an answer from the publisher on these complaints?

I joined Cycle 9 late November 2014 based on the extraordinary profit claims in their emails. Once subscribed, I had access to their actual trade performance. For 2014, looking across all trades, the Cycle 9 system was showing a 14% *loss* YTD. To be fair, the 2013 data was better and showed a 33% gain. Combining all 2013 and 2014 trades, Cycle 9 was showing an 11% profit. In the same period, the DJIA went from 13,435 to 18,053 (up 34%). The conclusion was clear: in that period a DJIA index returned 3x more than following all the Cycle 9… Read more »

The 90 money back guarantee got me to try it out. Decided if I could make back the annual fee in the 3 months I would stick with it. First thing I did was analyze their stated performance. Noticed quickly that one is in cash (waiting for next buy signal) for nearly 1/3rd of the time. But the average profit (according to my calculations) was about 20% for an average pick in about an average of about 68 days. That means you could probably do this 4 times in a year, so that’s more like 80% annualized return. Also noticed… Read more »

Correction: I counted half closed positions twice to get my 20% average return per trade last 4-5 years. More like 27% (at least according to my math). But I figure if you take/get the 90 day money back guarantee, you can do your own analysis.

Overall I am not at all impressed by the performance of the picks. In fact , over the past three months or so my returns are a negative 30 to 40%.
