This product is basically a ripoff by Mike Dunlop
This package is basically an expensive ripoff. The so called predicted highs and lows are not even as accurate as basic pivot points. The company owners have never traded in their lives and this is a slick sales machine. Be very careful.Most of what you read is posted by the company itself.

Right Size Your Expectations To Right Size Your Profit by Ty Webb
NO SOFTWARE PROGRAM CAN WORK ALL THE TIME! No software program is the Holy Grail. No software can take the UNEXPECTED twists and turns out of the marketplace. But, if you are looking for a way to make sense of the insanity and develop a system of entries and exits that WORK, Vantage Point is for you. Vantage Point generates reliable signals in all of the markets it tracks. The problem comes when people expect unrealistic results. Vantage Point will tell you when it is safe to enter a trade, what stops to use and when to exit. But, if you don't take the time to read and understand what the software is providing you, there will be frustration and failure. Market Technologies provides the best customer service and education FREE OF CHARGE for the first year you own the software. While Vantage Point is easy to use, some may find the underlying premise of the midpoint hard to understand. Customer Service helps by spending all of the time you will need to understand how to use the software. Also, there are blogs and user groups that help with trading strategies. Vantage Point is the ONLY software on the market today with a TRANSPARENT underlying predicted neural network. They say 80% of the time the forecasts are accurate. I have experienced VP as being far more accurate than that. Within 90 days of purchasing the software I had taken a $5000 account and grown it to over $20,000. So, the software has worked for me. Where people are frustrated is in the recent volatility in the marketplaces since July. No software program can help with that. But, I have found the VP still catches the major moves with great results, and helps you get out of losing trades with very minimal losses. That is all you can ask for from any software program. VP is robust and nuanced and will provide great rewards with a little time and effort.

VantagePoint still going strong by LongTimeTrader
Been using this product since 2003. I am happy to say that the software gets better over time. I've proven that with a bit of dedication and hard work, you can create tried and true strategies that will work successfully with VantagePoint. The NI is in the ballpark of 80 - 85% accurate in predicting the direction of the market over the next two days, but a good solid strategy does not use the NI alone. It works if you work it!!

You'll do better to buy the oposite of VantagePoint predictions by Bob Sim
Unbelievably unreliable. Don't think that the high price means better advice. It is an ugly scam and a wrigh-off in my experience.

Vantage Point Works by SkiTrader
I have extensively tested VantagePoint’s claims regarding 80% accuracy of their Neural Index indicator. It is about 80% accurate over time and across markets. VantagePoint analyses relationships between various markets they believe are correlated to forecast future indicators related to specific markets (futures, stocks, ETFs, etc.). This is a pretty unique tool that provides a useful addition to other trading tools that are out there. An earlier reviewer talked about using a simple Moving Average Cross-Over technique to duplicate VantagePoint however this misses the power of VantagePoint entirely. There are many sophisticated ways to use VantagePoint beyond simple moving average Cross-Overs that will yield profitable trading strategies for those who wish to put in the analysis and backtesting effort. However, VantagePoint is not an out of the box substitute for poor trading skills. It provides useful data that can be used by experienced traders to develop good trading strategies.

Vantage Point Works by ProTrader
It's easy to say that Vantage Point is just a MA on a chart or that customer suppport is weak; but the reality is that VP is a powerful trading tool. The proof is to spend some time reading how experienced traders are currently using this software successfully and profitably at TraderChat.com. So many traders can't be mistaken; and the very fact that these people are willing to post how they do it VP only serves to add weight of evidence. But don't be confused; VP is NOT a trading system, and this may be why some people are disappointed. Have they ignored the company's explanation of what VP "is" and "is not", thinking instead that if they spend several thousand dollars on software, they will receive an 'out-of-the-box' money making trading system? That's not what's advertised. VP is a very powerful trading 'tool'. Use it as the foundation for building a trading strategy, and you will be very pleased with the results. Again, TraderChat.com will show you the various ways other traders are doing just that. Sadly, people spend more money buying "trading systems" that don't work or blowing out a live account with real money as they experiment in the markets, than they would purchasing VP and developing a winning strategy. But VP is not for everyone; it's not for those who want 'quick & easy' profits, those who are lazy in their approach to trading or those who want someone else to do all the work for them. Buying and using VP is like going to college; money, time and effort are required. But like having and using a college education, the results are worth the investment.

Just use an EMA instead by John T Zillo
Just save your thousands of doillars on this product. Compare any of their charts to a standard exponential moving average crossover of say a 2 & 4 days & you will get the same results. If you are trading the Forex just use the FOZZY method & you will get crosses earlier & more accurate then their software. Not worth it & spread the word.

Vantage Point Don't waste you money by RS
Don't waste your money on this software. Once there company gets your money that is the end of there customer service. I would like to see them prove any of there claims as far as predicting the markets. There are plenty of other readily available tools that are much more accurate than this JUNK.....
