High Velocity WindfallsTravis, what do you think of this offer by Keith Fitzgerald at Money Map Press and the promise of Six Triple digit winners based on his X theory?
This is a discussion topic or guest posting submitted by a Stock Gumshoe reader. The content has not been edited or reviewed by Stock Gumshoe, and any opinions expressed are those of the author alone.
I sincerely believe that if it were valid, he would keep the idea to himself and family members, and make multiple millions instead of 6 figures.
MMap seems to be in the business of selling newsletters, and giving a SUPER-HYPE to many assorted investments. JMO.
I subscribed to the Money Map Report about three weeks ago, because it was
selling for $49 bucks just like the stock gumshoe subscription. I thought the
journalism was pretty interesting, but the proof was in the pudding. Did Keith
Fitz-Gerald really have the secret to never picking a losing stock again? He has
this “remarkable” proprietary buy and sell signal that he says can never miss.
So, the first two stocks which he recommended with his service were $DIS and
$EA. These are both fundamentally excellent companies in my opinion. And
his red cross over signal was flashing like Flash Gordon and the Emperor Ming.
And, as he only buys stocks that are moving up, how can you lose money by
buingy these two stalwarts? As he “only” buys stocks that are moving up, and always
sells stocks once they signal “sell” he always makes money, right? Well, in three
weeks, Disney is down close to 20% and EA is down about 12%. As I didn’t buy,
but just watched these two companies in my paper trade account, I didn’t get
burned. Disney has the release of Star Wars to look forward to as we head into
the Christmas season, and EA has some hot video games that could be on the
Xmas wish list of many teenage boys. Strangely, these companies might both
be approaching buy points, now that they’ve come in this much in just three weeks.
Fitz-Gerald is guilty of using the same teaser approach to the get rich quick journalsim
that most of the other financial advice investment services use. He’s probably not
better or worse than Louie Navallier, the Motley Fool, and the usual suspects. I
wouldn’t take any of the outrageous claims seriously, however. They are sometimes
fun to read, and might even give you good investment advice occasionally. Hey,
every broken clock gets the time right twice per day, right?
Thanks Andrew I was thinking along the same lines (x marks the spot) . If he does may a few picks please pass them on.I’m curious to see if his theory works, thanks.
I tried it since February and all the stock he picked were losers! On top of which is of course the cost of the service. What a lot of bull….
Stay in the trades longer, until they eventually become winners. Or you go broke.
x theory
I was on vacation a few weeks ago and looking at my stock portfolio on the beach and came across this newsletter in question.
I’m a smart guy/MBA BLAH BLAH BLAH and stocks are my hobby to research and invest Invest in the future besides my 401k and Roth
Anyway I guess I was fooled about the science behind his picks
I actual opened a new account just for his picks, so I bought and sold Disney when the X alerts came and still have EA.
Anyway I invested some throw away money and sure enough after Disneys earning report it fell and EA as well.
Disney I have long term anyway. But let’s see what EA does, like he said it could be a week or years
But I feel everything they push, the X factor, the gold chip and the VC opportunity are for dreamers.
Any comments?
Keith Fitz-Gerald, Dr. Kent Moors, Louis Navallier, Michael Robinson, Hillary Kramer….the list of people selling expensive investment newsletters/advise is quite long. Most of it of highly questionable value. A good reason to check in regularly @ stockgumshoe.com and share experiences in the market. Caveat Emptor!
What value does Keith Fitzgerald use in his formula for the X? Is it 100 like he gives in the example or does it change? Can anyone answer? thank you.
It is same as weekly Aroon 100.
Check for yourself.
I recently joined The Outsiders Club after reading a lot of information Nick had wrote,
they sent me an email on the Keith Fitz-Gerald club High Velocity Windfalls i tried to email this club also Keith but can not find any email address any where, his data seemed to good to be true, so i wanted to ask some questions. can any ony help me with my problem.
Regards A Lovatt.

Thanks, Stock Gumshoe!!!
Wouldn’t a reputable service show all their past recommendations? I subscribed to this service briefly and that information is not accessible! That was my number one clue that this method is not as successful as it would appear from the ads. (Also, if any method was highly profitable, the creator of the method would quickly be weathier than Warren Buffet!) I fear that this service is just a gamble. I thought that the safety factor of buying only “high F Score” stocks would prevent substantial losses, but I think that the market and how human psychology affects it are too complex for any simple strategy. I was very attracted to the idea, or perhaps just wanting a short-cut. Keith does recommend putting a 20% loss stop on every trade- and he acknowledges that some recommendations do go down. That way he can claim never to lose more than 20%. The service is attached to lots of other ads promoting the next big gains. Thank you for hosting thread on this.
I just viewed the ad and its an attractive, enticing video that promises the world. All you do is wait for him to point you to the “x” marks the spot. Its relatively in-expensive to get in and you have a 30 day money back guarantee. Dennis C. – Disney did make a comeback later that year probably because of the Star Wars movie. You said you got in and got out according to his guidance and registered a loss? EA reached its high of the year in late October of 2015. Did he recommend a sell yet? His Math seems self-fulfilling and true, but I question how he can find all of these picks and guarantee his wins. As always past history is not a guarantee of future results and the world can throw wrenches in the market all the time.
I subscribed to High Velocity Windfalls a few months ago, and will probably not renew. So far I have actually invested small amounts of money in the recommendations and am ahead slightly with one of them (MO) and behind slightly with 2 (CACI and the newest one AXCM) – have sold 2 along with the signal, both with slight losses and did not invest in another one. One stock is up about 20% since the recommendation a little over four months ago. So I would say the service is at the most, just ok and will give you an average return as a whole. The main thing I object to is the volume of emails advertising the other services or other “systems” – I get probably 10 or more emails from them every single day that have nothing to do with the High Velocity Windfalls or the Money Map report. Sifting through them is a huge pain. If you listen to the presentations, they go on and on for over an hour sometimes without telling you anything specific. I am now just skimming some of them and NEVER listen to the presentations.
I am a subscriber to Money map report. Based on the performance, I subscribed to High velocity windfalls in early 2015. To date, after a year, we are in 2016, they delivered very few picks and most of them are losers. But, they started selling other products and I am geeting frustrated with their email chains every single day. I would never buy another product from them as this team appears to me a scam artists. I asked them why I am not getting information as promised “once a month” but their answers are not straight forward. I am going to report this service to necessary government organizations. I am still happy with their money map report, which I receive once a month by USPS. All other communication form them in the form of email are just ****ing stuff.
Scam or not
Has Fitzgerald and his magic Xs yoelded any winners in the last year?
Hard to find any positive comments anywhere.
I am tired of reading all the negative comments about these phony stock market gurus.
I am thinking of copying their emails, newsletters and websites, so that I can get rich selling the same BS they are selling.
There is a sucker born every minute.
You can fool some of the people some of the time.
If you can’t beat them, then maybe you should forget about your own moral values and just join them.
The green X (buy signal) is : 100-(# of periods since 100-day high) /100, times 100. (I did a screen shot). Why would you divide something by 100, then turn around and multiply it by 100? That was a huge red flag for me. I passed.
What is the difference/relationship between High Velocity Profits and High Velocity Windfalls?
I have programmed TradeStation to do just the OPPOSITE of what the presenter recommends and I’m up 11% in two months.
