RE: VectorVest Stock Analysis of AmerigoI agree. I studied the Vector Vest buy and sell signals for other stocks and it was often late in buying and late in selling. You won't see a buy signal from VectorVest for ARG until the prices moves above its 40 day MA which will be at $2.90 (using today's price). So if you wait for VV you lose at least 11% if/when ARG turns up. VV won't pick a stock unless it has some upside momentum, which makes sense, but you'll do a much better job if you can pick bottoms yourself and just use VV for its funamental analysis.
There is one other flaw with VV. If the company's fundamentals are lousy, but the stock price is making huge gains (30%-50% in 2-3 months), it still won't pick the stock. It has to have good fundamentals and good timing for the stock to be chosen. This means VV will ignore speculative stocks that are soaring.
