Having chosen to retire last year I decided to get back into the stock market having a small asset base I am targeting capital growth over income, I am also at this time only looking at the Australian Stock Market. I had previously tried and failed to make any real money out of trading stock as I was choosing stocks basis of knowing and liking the company which also meant that I failed to sell when I should have. I started to look for sources of data that would help me remove the emotion out of buying and selling stocks, I found Halo and after watching a web presentation I signed up and worked through each of the training webinars, these were clear, detailed and I found Halo was very easy to use. I used the 3 step rule to find stocks to buy and recently purchased 5 stocks listed in the Blend I set up, one month later I sold three of those stock for a net capital growth of 5%. I find the data provided to be extensive, clearly presented and the application very easy to use. My account manager has been in regular contact about new webinars, features, etc.

This is my most valuable investing tool. I use Halo in 2 key ways. The first is the scan & blend tool which allows me to narrow my focus to a small core of companies that meet my criteria. I use 5 variables which I change to suit my objectives. The second, which I use virtually daily, gives an in-depth company analysis including sell signals and "shakey flakey" buy signals.

I had a training session to day with Jennifer who was very patient and helpful and explained things at a pace I could work to. Very grateful for her support and help. looking forward to another session with Jen in next few weeks

Overall my investments seem to be underperforming the market. I can't be sure about the quantification of this because the graph comparing portfolio with the market does not work (something I raised a month or two ago). I find I can work well with Daniel Phan on the process of stock selection. Hoping things pick up as I approach 1 year of my relationship with ASR. I am unsure at this point of the value to me of VIP Club. Looking forward to the AAIG float, as this is my most significant investment; would like to hear more what is going on with it.

Good analytics and easy to use menus, quick response time by phone when I have queries.

Halo has proven to be an invaluable program that I now use in making all my investment decissions. At the age of 65 I have found it very easy to use. The very detailed user manual and help file is a great support following the online training provided by the extremely freindly and supportive team at Halo.I can now do my research and run stock scans that was not previously possible with the time I have available.I can easily place my trades on my Macrovue account directly thru Halo also saving me a lot of time. I would recommend subscription to this service to any serious stock market invester .I have been receiving the ASR reports for many years and this gave me the confidence to take up the 10 yr subscription to Halo.

Unfortunately, I haven't put in enough time using HALO, but I do think it is a powerful and potentially (for me) a very useful tool. I've always the webinars very useful, well presented and enjoyable.

Maria had a one on one training session with myself. The session was very productive and was most helpful. She was very good at explaining the Halo system in a simple and logical manner. Much appreciated.

I am a VIP user, and it was worth paying the extra money. Support is personal, (almost) immediate, and very useful to peel off all those layers of the Halo platform. The information kept within this platform is incredible and you have access to different markets. Obviously, the more $$ you have to invest, the more useful it becomes.

I requested a run through of the new Halo platform and Tristan took me through a detailed explanation of all I wanted to know. Thank you! I now have to review the platform again to cement in the learnings.

I recently became a VIP Halo member. The service has been good, and the agent certainly is approachable and helpful. I will need more time to fully assess the service, however to date I am satisfied and recommend Gareth and his team.

I have found the technicalities of trading to be quite complex and for a novice I have found Halo a most beneficial research tool. By doing the scans and blends together with your 3 step process it simplifies the decision and gives more certainty in the purchase of shares. I had just "got my head around Halo 2.0 " and now have to familiarise myself with 3.0 but I'm sure it has been done to make it even more user friendly and I am making my way through it - with the great assistance of the manual, webinars and one-on-one training so between the three I should get a good handle on it!( i've been a bit busy the past couple of months and have just been on a holiday so I haven't had the time to give it that I would like but am planning to get stuck into it a bit more in the coming week. I also like the fact that macrovue has now been incorporated into Halo. I've found the trainers I've dealt with very knowledgeable, personable, and patient! I have no complaints on that score!

Good system, and still learning. Some concerns about some international markets (timely) updates I.e Japan.

Have dealt with ASR, Gareth, and Gareth's tools and have never had a problem with the tools, Gareth or ASR. The Service has been great (any concern dealt with quickly and to my satisfaction). The ASR people all seem focused on service and useful tools and information. Having been in the IT field I know there is a big difference between data (as supplied to ASR) and information (as provided) by the ASR tools. Thanks and look forward to a long and profitable association. Cheers Jim - PS 2021 hasn't been good up to now but things are changing ao here's to the second half.

I use the Halo program all the time: recent improvements have made it the most useable single source of information I have found for Australian & US stocks, together with portfolio tracking functionality that is very flexible and quick and easy to use. Halo's servers are FAST and very responsive. Gareth and Maria's excellent service (VIP) supplements the Halo program with speedy personal support which more than compensates for the program's lack of inbuilt intuitively accessible user guidance: the only aspect that was otherwise a bit disappointing with the HALO.

PATS also provides a carefully curated set of selected share recommendations which I have found useful. I have tracked the performance of most of those ecommended over the last nine months: the Time Weighted Return for those tracked is, according to my portfolio program, 11% pa net of Comsec brokerage assuming an equal amount invested in all of the tracked recommendations. A more strategic buying pattern could result in actual returns being better than the time weighted figure.

I receive regular phone calls asking if I need training or help with halo. Any questions I ask via email are answered promptly. Am happy with the service I get as a halo VIP

I did not have the time to come to grips with Halo. The software pretty much seems to do what is claimed. The Halo people tried conscientiously to assist me. They did refund the subscription promptly when I requested it. I was disappointed that the standard package was just a lead in to more comprehensive facilities. I would have benefited from some further examples of stock filters. not seem to cover small caps very well.

Belonging to VIP Halo has helped me to navigate the program more effectivly.

I find the platform quite useful but unfortunately haven't spent enough time to become an expert on it's use.
I will ask Tristan for some more help when needed.

Just to say, my highest priority is not the share market and to make more money but to manage a software development team, with our initial release planned for later this year. I am also the owner of this effort.
