"At this point it does not matter where Amazon is going. We have been proven consistently right on the stock as well as in many others. We published our research including specific targets for Amazon which have been proven correct. It was not a question of chasing the momentum on the stock, on the contrary, it was recommended to buy shares of the company every time they sold off to specific support pivots, the last one was $94.6 before earnings announcement. Before this mark, it was recommended to buy at $88 and before this at $77. We made very clear to our clients Amazon target $130 would be a likely event, a conservative approach. Moreover, a few months ago it was made a public announcement to fund managers and public investors urging them to close any existing short position on the stock near $77. Our purpose here is not to demonstrate that our team is always right which is not the case. An investor has to assume entire responsibility for his own decisions independently of them resulting in profits or losses. Beyond Trading measures performance by the level of total accumulated profits resulting from all real-time alerts and recommendations where the accuracy of those real-time alerts is a critical competitive advantage since helps one to maximize profits or minimize losses in the market. In a world where the "buy to hold" strategy does not work investors need a competitive advantage which results from a very strict set of rules to follow put in practice on a daily basis following our pivots", Vieira, Beyond Trading CEO
