Tom,
I agree with you that you have to ignore the commentary. VectorVest is a
great program if you invest the time to mold it to your own trading style.
The program has been dumbed down in order to appeal to the lowest common
investor; so one has to ignore its contrived timing system. Perhaps most
people on this list are doing better than I am, but, by using VectorVest,
I've made 80% in the last 14 months. The money management system is what
makes it profitable, not the individual stock picks. It's a good companion
program to MetaStock, because it lets you screen for fundamentals.
For people who aren't familiar with the program, the web site is
