Subscribing to Financial Sites - yes or no

I was thinking of subscribing to tipranks.com 's premium portion of it's site. It's $359 to join  (basically $30 a month billed as a year).

I'm looking for stocks and crypto currency ideas (basically high volatility stuff) to invest but don't have the time to do the research.

I use to be a trader/market maker on wall street but this was over 20 years ago so that's my experience and level of knowledge.

Anyone have any experience with paying a premium for a financial web site ? Tiprank.com is a really good site as far as I can tell but does anyone have any ideas or use other sites ? I'm willing to pay a premium to get all the tools I need. Thanks in advance for any advice.

When you say you are willing to pay a premium to get all of the tools you need -- then this site is as good as any other.  It will give you recommendations and it tracks the experts records.  It will give you a good screener to run your ideas through.

When you say you do not have the time to do the research then you can find some ideas, recommendations, and experts to 'blindly' follow.  

But if you are simply wanting to sort out stocks for your own ideas then there are many other stock screener sites.  Whatever platform you are using to trade should have stock, ETF, and mutual fund screeners already -- along with various expert's ideas and research.  

There are levels on that site in case you do not want to start with the premium access.  Or you can try it for a month or two and see how you like it.  Folks tend to like a lot of the basic ones just for stock screenings and maybe some analyst's research.  But this site will give you all sorts of information and you will actually need time to go through all of it.  So, if you are not looking to spend a lot of time on the research it might not be ideal.

There are even some decent free screeners online.  But if you are looking for expert's ideas then maybe this one is fine.  

But I would look at reviews and see what folks say about the various ones besides this one and see which you think may best suit your needs before buying one for a year.

Thanks Raiders, I'll keep that in mind.

There's so many sites out there I just realized I should take the time to look more. The site tipranks.com doesn't give you the option to try for 30 days but I found a couple of sites that have the option.

I was not trying to put down that site.  If it sounded that way I am sorry.  I was trying to say there are plenty of them out there, so I was suggesting to make sure you find the right one to meet your needs as closely as possible.

I know folks that use that site and like it.  I was just saying they give you a lot of information and maybe even too much.  If you want some more concise ones there are some.

I know folks that like Zachs and Motley.  I have always liked Alpha and Morningstar.

I will show you a link that gives a good overview of those and some I am not familiar with.  Hopefully, some of this will help you find the best suitable one for you.

 Good luck on whatever you decide on.
