Awesome trading community!

August 31, 2026

RG has built more than just a trading group—he’s built an incredible community of traders who genuinely support one another. The system is straightforward, disciplined, and, in my experience, one of the best approaches I’ve found for scalping. The guidance, education, and camaraderie make this group stand out. If you’re serious about improving your scalping game, this is a group worth checking out.

Best Trading Group Out There! So Glad I Joined!

July 21, 2026

I am so glad I joined Volume Spikes! I have learned so much. Ricky is awesome and a great human being. He really cares about all of us and helps us every way he can. I love the training classes as well. Milo is a wonderful Trainer, I look forward to all of the classes because I learn a lot. Also, Ricky’s Scanners and Indicators are the best and the community of people are also very kind and care about each other. I have only been a part of the community since the beginning of June, but I look forward to it every day and I look forward to the year ahead. Thank You So Much Ricky and Team!

Answered Prayer

July 12, 2026

I’ve been trading off and on for over 15 years but was never able to find consistent success and profitability until now. Like most, I’ve quit trading several times out of frustration and feeling like I could never master trading. As a Christian, I prayed and asked God for wisdom, direction, guidance and favor in my trading. Shortly after, I found Ricky (Volume Spikes) on YouTube. I began to follow his instructions and allowed myself to be re-educated to trading. I’ve found a better understanding of the market. God has given Ricky “witty inventions” as mentioned in Proverbs. Ricky is a man of faith and prayer. He prays for our community. His faith and integrity shines brightly everyday! God has honored and blessed him to be a blessing to others. His proprietary scanners and indicators are nothing short of miraculous. If you have been searching, search no longer. This is the blessing!

A Healthy Place to Grow your Trading Career

July 6, 2026

I approached Volume Spikes with a healthy amount of skepticism. Like many traders, I’ve seen plenty of services make big promises that simply don’t deliver. That’s exactly why I took my time before deciding to become a member.

After spending time with the platform and the community, I can honestly say this is one of the few places where you’ll find genuine honesty and transparency. The team focuses on education, realistic expectations and teaching traders how to use the tools effectively rather than promoting unrealistic results.

The scanners, indicators and ongoing training have helped me make more informed trading decisions, but what stands out most is the integrity of the people behind the service. They genuinely want members to learn and improve and they’re available to answer questions and provide guidance.

If you’re looking for a trading community built on honesty, education and practical tools instead of hype, Volume Spikes is well worth considering.

Premarket Magic

July 2, 2026

I have been with Ricky and the community for over a year. I found him through Youtube when I was looking for a group to trade with in the premarket. Due to my heavy work schedule, premarket is usually the only time I have to trade. I have been able to vastly improve my trading using the screeners and indicators. In fact, this has been a game changer for me and I look forward to trading with the group every morning. The monthly fee is paltry compared to the gains obtained in a month. You will not regret joining this group if you are a patient, disciplined trader who is looking for a positive and encouraging atmosphere.

Been with Ricky over 3 years

July 2, 2026

Ricky’s indicators and knowledge are the foundation I built my trading system on. The quality of his scanner is exceptional — clean signals, well-timed, and consistently actionable in premarket conditions where noise is highest. What sets Ricky apart isn’t just the tools he’s built, but his willingness to explain the reasoning behind them so you actually understand what you’re trading. He’s one of the rare educators in this space who teaches you to think, not just follow arrows. If you’re serious about developing your own edge, Ricky gives you a genuine starting point and the knowledge to take it further.

The place to be

Happy to be part of this great community. Worth every penny invested. I’ve taken what I learned here to the bank. No BS, just results.

CptCurmudgeon

Best trading platform on the web.

July 1, 2026

Love being apart of the Volume Spikes community. The scanners and indicators are spot on and, RG’s knowledge of coding ,scalping, and trader sentiment is unmatched. The support team is awesome! If your not making money they want to know why. Put in a support ticket, show them when your entering and exiting trades and they’ll explain what you’re doing wrong and what you should be doing to get you into the winner’s circle. even the members of the community will freely offer advice if you ask them. I love the selflessness in this community and I’m glad I’m apart of it.

Great indicators

July 1, 2026

Been with VS for about 2 1/2 years — Before I joined, I was just guessing on what to trade. Now with the indicators on VS, it is a much more educated decision I can make.

Crab Key Travelers

Gamechanger

July 1, 2026

Working with Volume Spikes has been an absolute gamechanger for me. RG and staff are professional, efficient, and incredibly knowledgeable. They took the time to teach us how to use the scanners and indicators. The results of my trading wouldn’t be what they are like without Volume Spikes. If you need a trading group look no further!

David H

Great results and great community

June 25, 2026

I have been a member just over 6 months now. Ricky continually puts out newer and better scanners that work extremely well. Also the community/chat is fun and informative.

I wake up every morning looking forward to trading here with this group. On top of all of that, there are regular classes on using the scanners and also other things around trading.

Finding this community has definitely leveled up my trading.

Fabulous Fun

It's not easy but RG makes it easier!

June 25, 2026

As a completely new trader starting at 61 years old, I was looking for a simple way to learn the market without feeling overwhelmed.

What I like most about this community is that the instructor created a complete set of indicators that clearly show stock direction and help identify potential entry points.

There is definitely a learning curve, but the system makes trading much easier to understand and follow.

If you’re willing to put in the time to learn, it’s one of the most beginner-friendly approaches to trading that I’ve found.

Pocono Bob

Great tools, repeatable system, and a supportive community

June 25, 2026

Scans and indicator that come with the standard membership are not only fast, prescice, and on target, there’s also some premimun indicators that will add a cherry on top.

However, that’s not where the value is at… the community is worth it’s weight in gold.

With great training sessions and the live trading floor, you can acquire achievable and repeatable gains,”if” you can master your own discipline. A true scalping strategy that can be learned fairly quickly.

Response from VolumeSpikes.Com

Thank you for the kind words Eric.

Pleasure having you part of the VolumeSpikes Family.

Finally useful knowledge

April 26, 2026

From a twenty year active trader, very impressed! Has increased my win rate considerably

Bill in Indiana

Great Buy/Sell Indicators & friendly, knowledgeable trading group

April 23, 2026

I discovered Ricky Gaspard’s YouTube channel and joined this group a year ago.

Although I’m an experienced trader with over 50 years experience, the

VolumeSpikes.com SmartCandlePro indicator in particular has enabled

me to have consistently higher trading win-rates than I used to have.

(Of course, patience, discipline, and some market knowledge and experience

are required too, but the SCP indicator definitely gives me an extra edge.)

Wonderful Supportive Trading Community

April 20, 2026

Ricky Gaspard and his team have created the very best trading community anywhere! Ricky has an incredible God-given gift for understanding markets, creating indicators and scanners, and helping others learn how to trade carefully and successfully. He has a heart of gold and really cares about his students. The information and guidance we get from Ricky and his team is invaluable and I would not want to learn under any other teacher. Ricky is hands down the best trading coach there is, with the best system and tools. Thank you Ricky for helping us and thank you Jesus for giving us Ricky!

A Goldmine

April 18, 2026

This gold mine I found by chance has been the best blessing, and I am so excited to see how the future unfolds with the dedication that Ricky and the team have for helping us get better. The ‘family’ of traders is so positive, adding to a nice day that is stressful as we all know. The system is comprehensive and understandable, does need patience like any system does, and I believe is the most opportunistic for growth/profit among those I have worked with in the past. My confidence has soared the past few weeks with the new scanners Ricky developed – incredible. I would recommend any day trader starting out or just needing a better way to research Volumespikes!

The Mission Contril of Trading

April 17, 2026

I started trading in October 2025, and finding RG at YouTube has been the ultimate game changer for me. If I had to describe his leadership style, he reminds me of Rob Navias from NASA Mission Control. When the markets get turbulent, RG is that calm, steady voice bringing the entire team in for landing. His creativity in building this platform and his ability to break down complex volume data into actionable insights is unmatched. When I make my first million it will move to 5 stars lol.

Capt. LB

Has been a sure winner!

April 14, 2026

Found Volumespikes on YouTube back in the summer of 2024. Would listen at work. Learned about TOS and trading. Joined Volumespikes Discord and started trading. Small share size at first until confidence grew. Now with the new web site and scanners there is continuing winning days in a very difficult market. Working 2 days a week and will be retiring soon. Couldn’t of gotten where I’m at without Ricky and the Volumespikes community. They really do everything they can do to help.

Simplifying the way we trade

April 13, 2026

I paid $12,000 for a course eight years ago and learned a lot about the market and options. The course came with seminars and online course’s, and 7 day a week email support. Almost a year ago I found VolumeSpikes.com and gave them a try because even with all the course’s I had taken just never really got any consistency in trading. The VolumeSpikes community is so supportive and there to help. I have never seen someone so dedicated to help and finds something to make it better almost weekly as Ricky (RG) does. He truly wakes up every day wanting to help everyone to learn how to make money no matter what level of trader you are or what kind of account you have. The indicators he has given us makes all the difference in the world. With this community it gets a little bit easier every day. Wish I would have found this site sooner.

Best In a Class of Its Own

April 13, 2026

I started following Ricky Gaspard on YouTube early in 2025. At that time he had a group on Discord and was planning the opening of VolumeSpikes.com. Initially I was going to wait for the new website, but thankfully I decided to join early and subsequently the launch of VolumeSpikes.com has been a game changer.

Ricky provides a treasure trove of indicators coded in ThinkorSwim, these tools are next level. Then there are his custom scanners, again best in a class of their own.

Just recently, Ricky has developed a real time scanner that finds momentum stocks faster than any other scanner that I have seen out there. These new scanners are worth the price of admission all on their own.

Talking about the price of admission…. Not only all the tools and indicators, but the trading community we are a part of makes the journey even more enjoyable.

Thank You to the team at VolumeSpikes.com, you have my complete and emphatic endorsement.

GregT

A marvelous experience and membership

April 13, 2026

I have tried several other trading subscriptions and systems, some even live trading, and Volume Spikes takes the lead in scanners, studies, and especially, live training both during market hours and after market closes. Ricky and his team are super at leading, training, and helping members become successful and independent traders.

The best indicators and community with the best mentor you can have

October 14, 2025

I have always been inquisitive on how the stock market worked and how momentum trading helps people make a lot of money in no time. RG is the best I have found out there. He makes trading stress free as long as you are disciplined and strictly follow his teachings. I am grateful to have RG as my mentor and the community that makes you feel at home. My goal was not to make money but to learn the mechanics of trading. I have achieved my goal and now ready to dive into real-time trading using RG’s unique indicators.

Ricky, Indicators and Team behind him are amazing!

September 4, 2025

Im new to trading, and was exposed to this style of momentum trading or scalping and now I’ll be doing this for life! It’s amazing how much support Ricky and his team give to the community. The training, indicators, scanners, are worth every dollar. I am learning everyday and making money. Thank you Ricky, and thank you community! You all have been very helpful!

SmartCandles fixed my timing issue

September 4, 2025

I have consistently struggled with trade entry and exists that are too early (and costly). ‘Smart Candles’ fixed this. I now get in at the right time and stay in much longer. It’s doubled my profits already.

profitable in 6 months not 2 years

September 4, 2025

Becoming a successful trader is my retirement goal and I planned for 2+ years of training and learning and losses.

With Ricky, his tools and team, I have become a profitable trader in my first 6 months.

majeka

Drawn to the indicators and the community. I am in the right place.

September 1, 2025

I was looking for a day trading mentor that I felt comfortable working with and I could learn from. YouTube suggested I try Ricky’s community. I listened for 1 week and I knew I found the right place. Ricky continues to be consistent with his messages as to how to get better and learn trading. The community is fantastic in helping answer questions, no matter how many times I ask them, and point out videos where I can learn more. I know I am getting better as my numbers prove it. I need to get consistent and rein in my desire to chase prices so I can wait for the trade to come to me. This place is awesome!

Very Supportive and Experienced Community

September 1, 2025

In addition to gaining access to Ricky’s indicators, scanners and 30+ years of Day Trading experience, you gain access to a diverse group of traders ranging from beginner to very advanced. This can in fact accelerate your growth by helping you to avoid the big pitfalls that can come with day trading. In addition to learning sooner than later, you will pick up on some secrets to being successful as you are chatting with our Traders in real time. We are all in the chat trading, commenting and hearing how the last trade went for everyone. This is all happening while we are watching Ricky or Milo’s chart on the screen and listening to their thoughts on how a trade is setting up. You are not copying their trades, you are learning how to think and trade for yourself. There are other aspects to becoming a successful trader that you will learn about from the support staff and from other Traders as you spend time with us on VolumeSpikes.com. I have come to realize that doing this alone is not the best way to build a very specific trading plan and the kind of discipline you need to be successful as a Professional Day Trader. Come join us to learn from and contribute to our community!

From Swing Trade to Day Trade and beyond

August 31, 2025

I was absolutely lost before I met Ricky Gaspard. I watched videos, studied and saw all the podcasts out there. I did everything I could to immerse myself in trading. I would win a few and lose alot more. I was all over the place and undisciplined. One day I stumbled unto Rickys Youtube and heard him congratulate a trader for winning 3 dollars I knew he was the one for me. Patient and with an immense intelligence for coding , teaching and trading in REAL TIME. I did mention how much Patience Ricky has??? I cannot congratulate and thank this man enough for changing my life.

DaveP

Amazing trading community!

August 31, 2025

I found Ricky about 1.5 years ago searching Youtube for practical trading videos. I am a visual learner and wanted to watch other traders. I found ThinkorSwim on Youtube and immediately started learning the scalping process. I joined Ricky’s community and immediately knew I was is in the right place. Ricky is gifted with the power of prayer and I’m moved by them each trading day. Ricky’s passion for others to learn the process and become profitable is rarely found. He celebrates the $1 wins as much as the $1000 ones. The community is amazing and support is great. If your looking for a place to learn, this is it!

Wonderful Supportive Trading Community

August 31, 2025

I have been learning trading for the last year and I was lucky enough to find this wonderful supportive trading community a few months ago. Ricky is a real pro who trades live with us every day and gives invaluable tips and commentary. He is also a genuinely kind and caring person and I am so happy to be able to learn from him. The other team members are great too, extremely knowledgeable and helpful! I am extremely grateful to be part of this community; they make trading more fun and less stressful. And my trading is getting better too!

Cushie D

The Most Amazing Community

August 31, 2025

What can I tell you about Ricky, the team and this trading community? Well, I can start by saying I have finally found my trading home. I have been trading for several years, firstly on my own and learned by buying a very well known course for nearly $5k. I struggled, I gambled, I was reckless and I lost….a lot. Then someone recommended Ricky about 8 months ago and I am so happy I’ve found my happy trading place! I have learned so much from Ricky, Milo, Aaron and everyone in the community. I’ve matured and grown as a trader with the guidance and encouragement, and I can honestly say I would have thrown in the towel if it wasn’t for them. I’m now calmer, more accurate and most importantly, profitable. Ricky’s indicators and scans were a game changer and I know I’ll be part of this group forever. Thanks RG and the team!

Glad I found Ricky

August 31, 2025

I first found Ricky by watching one of his Youtube videos and was blown away by the information he showed. I then started following his morning stream on Youtube and was quickly sold on becoming a Premium member. All the knowledge, training and indicators from Ricky have been a game changer. When his new site VolumeSpikes.com started, I signed up on the first day it went live and bought the new Smart Candles Pro indicator. I look forward to learning more from Ricky and increasing my investment gains in the long run. Thank you Ricky!

John Sutherland

My trading has vastly improved since discovering VolumeSpikes.com

August 31, 2025

I have been a Premium Member for about 4 months now. I hold a BS in Computer Science, and I greatly appreciate the coding that Ricky has done, paired with his obvious experience at trading. His focus on volume, together with his emphasis on Buyers vs Sellers, has helped me in my momentum scalp trading. It is so clear now when to get in and when to get out.

His Smart Candles Pro is a synthesis of several of his most successful chart indicators, and provides a clear path to accuracy in trading. I have spent hours analyzing his code, and he is a clear, precise coder who writes truly elegant code that produces excellent results.

Having traded previously with Tim Sykes, and later with Ross Cameron — I can truly say I have found my trading home. I am finally profitable.

Supportive Community

August 31, 2025

Trading is trading. Doing it alone is a challenge. This community makes all the difference. Both educational and supportive! And it’s not just the live trading sessions, the after hours training is what takes this community over the top. Learning from professionals about “how-to” as well as emotionally handling the up-and-downs of the market. Wouldn’t want to be anywhere else but here.

AaronR

Ricky is a Pro!

August 30, 2025

I had been swing trading stocks and commodities for about 5 years before coming across Ricky while I was searching for a ThinkorSwim training video on YouTube. I was immediately fascinated because I had never seen anything like his ThinkorSwim setup and actually had never been exposed to a REAL scalper before. I jumped in Ricky’s community for a month and found it to be a really great group of traders who are positive and supportive. Ricky and his team are very helpful with answering questions, getting set up, and responding promptly.

This system REALLY works! I have an over 80% win rate while trading with Ricky and the Volume Spikes community. My advice to new traders would be to show up every single day and listen to Ricky. He knows what he is doing. Especially when it comes to starting out with small share sizes. This will allow you to build confidence and keep you profitable long term. Thank you Ricky and the Volume Spikes team!

The best community ever!

August 29, 2025

I have been part of this community for two years. I have learned so much and the and the service is second to none. Everyone supports each other and the founder RG is unbelievable and very knowledgeable. The support team is also fantastic always there to help. It is definitely a real family with people that care about one another. No other place I would rather be.
