Bravos Research Avis 

I am very satisfied.

Mark Douglas' classic book on investing psychology (Trading in the Zone) says find a system that gives you an edge and execute on it consistently and robotically -- the way casinos play blackjack -- and over time you should profit.

Bravos Research gives you an edge: swing trade alerts with a +\- 2 week to 2 month avg hold time and they make good picks. They attempt to capture the meat of price moves, alerting you when to buy, and give their take-profit/stop-out levels, and weighting.

I just buy everything they recommend (unless I am late and the price has moved by 5% or more, up or down) at their their suggested weighting when I get the alert email, input their profit/stop levels into my trading account and it executes automatically. So it's fairly simple to implement. Slightly more wins than losses (maybe even ?), but they get you out of losses quickly and let winners run.

The premium vids and process teach-in vids are excellent.

Yep, Anakin and Beardo are as smart as they seem on TV. Bravos is a profitable subscription for me so ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️s, amigos.

Contrary to some of the reviews here, I've consistently found Bravos to be of high integrity. I've been a subscriber for 2 years. I enjoy all their free videos and their deeper analysis 3 times per week in the subscription service. I don't understand the complaints about after hours signals and catching the right price. They just recommend when stocks are at a good buy point. Sometimes I don't enter for 2 or 3 days later, and it doesn't bother me because I don't worry about pennies when the stock may move 15% in a few weeks. And it's up to each trader to consider their own entry tactics.
The free videos are not meant to allow you to time the market in the short-term, but they are fascinating economic analysis.
I sometimes use call options from their signals. Yes, I get more volatility that way, good and bad. Last year, I did well, partly thanks to Bravos. I very much appreciate how serious they are about stop losses, and their overall approach to macro and technical analysis. In my experience of trying out several trading services, I find Bravos to be far better than others. Their analysis is very deep, and you can tell that they must think about a trade at least 5 times before they decide to greenlight it--and only after they've carefully defined the risk. You don't find this kind of maturity and analysis in other places.

I have been a member for more than 3 years. I learnt a lot on their premium video on the market and their trade recommendations.

Bravos Research offers good market analysis using the paid subscriptions. I managed to make some gains overall, but there are occasionally some false breakouts leading to losses.

What I dislike are the clickbait titles of their free youtube videos. The content is alright though.

Bravos Research provides excellent macro economic analyses in context of current events. The multiple weekly videos provided allow for easy consumption of complex information.

I’ve found Bravo’s Research to be consistently high quality, particularly in the way they combine macroeconomic insight with technical analysis. Their market outlook is well thought out and grounded in a broad understanding of global factors, rather than relying on a single narrative or bias.
What stands out most is their conservative approach to swing trading ideas. Setups are presented with a clear focus on risk management and realistic expectations, which is refreshing in a space that can often lean toward overly aggressive or speculative calls. It gives you confidence that capital preservation is just as important as returns.
Another major strength is the emphasis on learning how to interpret the market using multiple factors. Rather than just providing signals, Bravo’s Research helps you understand the “why” behind trades—bringing together macro trends, technical levels, sentiment, and structure. This multi-factor approach is invaluable for anyone looking to develop their own independent view of the market.
Overall, it’s a well-balanced, disciplined service that not only provides solid trade ideas but also builds your ability to think critically about market conditions.

I've had this service for roughly 2 years, and these guys absolutely earned a five star rating. I don't give it lightly. You watch someone like Jim Cramer, Larry Williams, or any of the well know names in investing, and you never really come out of it much better equipped or more knowledgeable. You watch and read what Bravos research puts out and you learn a ton! I have pages and pages of notes. They explain things so it's easy to understand. They teach you. They give you a toolbox with tools you never knew existed. That's the selling point for me. If, however, you aren't interested in learning, and you would rather just have someone tell you what to do (which is perfectly fine), they send you alerts for every trade they initiate and close so you can just copy them and never watch a single video or read a single article. Either way, no other service I've looked at comes close to the quality and depth of information. No other service teaches and explains like this one.

Slechtse trade ever alleen verliezen geen winst oplichting joe bravo

I was very impressed with Bravos’s YouTube free videos and subscribed in September (2025).

When I joined I took every trade and followed every alert. I did this until the end of December when I saw that I was losing money overall and felt that although I had some winners (SMCI, AMAT, CAMTEK, NTRA, SPXS, ZS, GEV, SLV, CPER), I found that I was being overwhelmed by the losses. I lost money on the recommended trades for ETHA, EMCOR, TEVA, SQQQ, AMZN, MSFT, GEV, NVDA, ACMR, SCMI, ROKU, GILD, ISRG, NU, COPX, SPXS, VCYT, STE, and TSM. The winners did not make up for the losers. So in January, due to the losses, and my sense that the market overall was not in the expected uptrend, (the macro Bravos thesis that “Stocks Are Poised For A Risk On Move), I stopped executing the trades and started to simulate the results as if I were taking the trade alerts. I am very glad that I did not continue to trade the alerts since the beginning of January; I would have further losses.

On the plus side, Bravos is very disciplined about keeping losses tight and they do take profits along the way when stocks rise (and the profit taking just before earnings announcements has been very effective recently when even good earnings have often been rejected by the market). I would guess on average my losses were kept to around 5-7% and never more than 9%. But in this choppy market for the last many months, frequent losses have added up. Breakouts have often been failing at resistance or falsely breaking out more often than not.

Another plus is that Peter’s videos are fascinating and insightful on a macro level. Having said that, the thesis that markets should continue higher has not been borne out yet. It may well! But unfortunately over the last 6 months, the anticipated rise has not played out.

I wonder if my timing has been unfortunate and that Bravos’s strategy is better suited to a steadily rising market, because the strategy is often based on anticipated breakouts. But, having said that, expertise in judging the market is what we pay for.

I would have been better off sticking with the S&P 500. After 2 months and 18 trades (9 open & 9 closed), I was significantly lagging the S&P 500, with a lot more work and monitoring. Their method didn't demonstrate any breakout prediction power. There's a reason they're constantly having sales off their hugely inflated subscription price (which is annual only and no refunds - which should have been a dead giveaway, but it's not disclosed until AFTER you pay).

I had a subscription with Bravos , got really disappointed with them and asked for a refund. We agreed upon a partial refund , since I have been subscribed for a couple months (fair) . Now ( 2 days later) , I got two attempts from Bravos to make a payment from my card . My card was frozen by myself , beforehand , so no damage is done, but they just tried to steal money . Please , stay away from them .

Most of the trades seem to be breakout buy stop trades that Bravos inform their clients AFTER execution.
Very rarely you can catch the price they've got.
It is often that you're even 3% late :(.

I tested all my entries (I have a ledger for them) after capital-years deployed: $85,964.73
I lost 4% annualized on their picks.

I subscribed to Bravo's about 2 years ago. When I did, they were proud to post their winning $ and %, along with their stop-loss %. 2024 was an excellent year for them, and everything was great. 2025 rolls around, the price skyrockets, but I stayed thinking it's worth it given proper performance. Not so much. 2025 has been an awful year and they have not been paying attention to cutting losses and letting them run. The returns have been negative. When I asked for a year-end tally, they gave me some lame excuse that they can't do it because it's based on my trades. It wasn't before. Then, when I asked to cancel, they said they wouldn't refund any money. How does something so good turn so bad so fast?

Bravos Research has a pretty big problem with trade recommendations, which come out after hours, it is impossible to track the real prices they suggest. Another problem is the app, as a customer you rely on a fast and good user experience app, but in practice it is slow, especially when they send trades.

Third thing made me cancel my subscription was their discomfort with criticism. It is well known Bravos Research blocks negative or inconvenient comments in YouTube. Any ethically sound company must accept criticism in order to improve.

In short, if you're paying hundreds of dollars for a financial service, you expect quality service. I'll look for alternatives from the competition.

Notice how there aren't any critical comments on their youtube videos? I think I have a pretty good idea why.

They had a live video on the Bravos Research Crypto channel on the 19th of November where they discussed recent market events and directed viewers toward their product. Me and one other user discussed their offer in the chat. We noticed that, according to their own data -- comparing the returns from winning vs losing trades -- their returns don't seem to beat that of the S&P500. You can't be sure without third party audited broker statements. An issue I also raised, but they don't seem to have any. Those comments, both mine and that of the other user, are now missing from the recorded chat.

Shortly afterwards I noticed that I can't make a comment on any of their videos that would be visible in incognito mode. Even though I can see them, nobody else can. This is exactly what happens when a youtube creator decides to hide a specific user from his channel.

My criticism was polite, but pointed and inconvenient.

I never bought their product, because I decided against it for good reasons. Too bad I was shadowbanned for sharing these reasons with others. This behavior is a major red flag and everyone who considers buying their product should be aware of it.

EDIT: concerning their reply:

1) I believe the live in question had something about shorting the S&P500 in the title. Now that this decision turned out to be *very* wrong, the title was changed. So much for transparency.
2) In contrast to what they say, they advertise that they their trades have been something, something "comfortably beating the market". You've heard this phrase if you watched a few videos of theirs. I have serious doubts about that.
3) I am 100% shadowbanned. No comment goes through, even completely innocent ones with no phrases they mentioned.

Just don't. They create an illusion of competence and transparency, but they won't deliver what you hope.

Bravos Research attempts to unsettle small investors with sensational YouTube videos. They imply that subscribing to Bravos will solve all problems. The sales pitch is easy to see through.

The recently released video “A Once in a Lifetime Economic Reset is Coming” is a good example of this: The video claims that growing inequality in wealth distribution in the US will lead to a major tax reform (in particular an increase in corporate tax), which will then cause a stock market crash like in 1929. The fact that there will be no political majority for such a tax reform in the US in the foreseeable future is not mentioned. However, viewers are led to believe that a Bravos subscription will ensure they are informed in good time. Bravos is therefore trying to sell solutions to problems that do not yet exist. How sad! A good trader should be able to earn their money through good trading, right?

It is also very annoying that the YouTube moderators at Bravos do not allow criticism like this in the comments on their YouTube videos, but delete it immediately. This strongly contradicts their claim to be “as transparent as possible.”

Trustpilot moderates reviews itself, so I hope that this review will not be deleted. If necessary, I am happy to prove at any time that my statements are accurate.

A comment to your reply:

Your YouTube videos intend to gain more customers. Therefore, they are very relevant for customers as well as potential customers. You have deleted justified criticism of mine (see above) from the comments below your YouTube video. This is an inacceptable repression of free speech. It shows that your statement "we welcome open discussion of ideas" is not true. This deeply questions the trustworthiness of your service.

The problem with Bravos Research is that you pay them money to provide you with Trade Alerts. Because the trading that they do is short to medium term - ie they hold trades for a few hours if things go badly or at most for a few weeks if things go well - missing out on a trade alert can cost you money. And I've noticed on quite a few occasions that they just forget to send trade alerts. Recently they had no trade alerts at all going out for a few days during which they closed a few important trades. But this isn't an isolated incident, it happens all the time.

So the problem is, if you want to trade in this way, you need reliable information received on a regular basis. Peter's analysis videos are fantastic and informative, but because the trade alerts aren't reliable, it's hard to recommend them. You don't know if maybe this time they will forget to send out an alert just before a certain stock crashes by 20%.

Peter's videos and analysis are v. good. The trading mindset is excellent too.

The problem is trade recommendations often come out after hours suggesting entry / exit at unrealistic prices. They don't publish a P&L ledger, simply claim it for some trades, though even there, there's no proof of transaction.

Also, the site and app are shitty / slow. Once a recommendation comes out the cohorts following their guidance are big enough that some names move quickly based solely on their alerts.

Finally, if you add a comment which they don't like, it's censored or shadow banned.

Peter´s videos are good, informative. What let´s the service down is a poor website and app that becomes unresponsive whenever they post a new trade and let their subscribers know by email. Sometimes takes 4-5 minutes to see the details.

Also, subscriber posts do not go online unless they are happy with the content of your post. I am not sure this is how subscribers paying hundreds of dollars should be treated.

But I say it again, the analysis and Peter are fabulous!
