5/5Unique FIVE STAR phone app
This is a 5 star iPhone App that brings with it all the key features of the Leaderboard web page. The charts use unique highlights to display entry and support levels with accompanying annotations. The app does work on a iPad (only in portrait mode); however, I am able to access the Leaderboard web page on an iPad with the same features as a laptop and feel the two formats complement each other. My justified complaint would be that while on iPad/safari the difference in size and ratio of the leaderboard chart versus an IBD chart, with IBD clearly presenting the larger, classic, logic ratio chart. *Leaderboard is a professional service with quality information on chart patterns, bases and entry points, with a detailed checklist, annotated charts, solid commentary insights and direction. Leaderboard has also added ‘scorecard’ a live monthly, interactive Zoom broadcast available to subscribers. Thanks to IBD/Leaderboard! I really enjoy the pocket size convenience of your iPhone apps!

5/5I learned how to trade correctly using Leaderboard
It’s not a strict implementation of CANSLIM but it is based on the same set of principles. I’ve learned so much using Leaderboard and attending the monthly calls, listening to the podcast. I’m not entirely sure how they source the ideas, but I assume they use a combination of judgement and IBD tools like Marketsmith. The only potential negative is I would rather plan out my days and weeks than react to intraday recommendations. Occasionally there are new positions that are added without starting on the Leaders to Watch. Some stocks can move very quickly. Also, during extreme volatility, some of these can make big moves down. To anyone considering using: remember, it is your money and your responsibility alone for how you manage your capital. You can lose money. Treat Leaderboard as a way to learn and you will get tons of value.

5/5Great tool
Is great it fits amazing with my options trading plan! It does my homework by just opening the app. I used to spend stressful hours doing research im glad they give free trials and im keeping my membership. They also very helpful with their couching of how to use the software in your advantage. The mobile app does need some extra love their notes doesn’t show on the charts like the ones on their website. I hope they are working on this. Either way I recommend trying it.

5/5Leaderboard
I owe ny financial success to my subscription to Leaderboard. I have learned a great deal over the years regarding patience, discipline and the importance of understanding and analyzing the technical charts. I am disappointed that I have difficulty getting on to this site with my Apple iPhone. The phone does not work like other apps. I always have to sign in, and sometimes it doesn't even let me sign in. I am hoping This issue can be fixed.

5/5Want a return on your investments?
First read How To Make Money in Stocks by William O’Neill, then get an IBD subscription, then pay for Leaderboard. Seriously, it has never been easier to leave all emotions out of investing and look at only the numbers and patterns. Anyone can make money with this app, they do all of it he work for you. If you know what to look for and what it means (if you read the book) they find it and tell you when to buy it!
