Learn to Trade Australia Reviews 346

Signing up to "Learn To Trade" has been a rewarding investment for me. After trading on my own for several years and only making slow progress I joined Learn to Trade and the change was dramatic. They have well structured packages to aid learning and it’s delivered in a professional manner. You can learn at your own pace with webinars and training sessions conducted online and available to download or stream at your leisure which fits in with my lifestyle. I have always felt well connected with the coaches and peers who support you every step of the way. These are people who use the tools themselves and can share their experiences and own journey to help you along the way.

The Smartcharts trading platform is powerful yet easy to customise and use. It’s extremely mobile and I generally use it on a tablet which I take with me in my travels. So long as I can get a network connection (which is easy with Starlink) I can trade anywhere in the world. It has really opened up many opportunities for both my wife and I which was never previously possible. It gives us the freedom to continue our travel adventures. Since joining Learn to Trade, my understanding of trading (and ultimate success rate) has significantly improved. As such, I now manage and operate Prop accounts along with my own funds successfully. I only wish I had have joined a lot sooner.

I attended the 3 day/weekend gig after the 1 day event. Everything was delivered as per their sign-up guidelines, everything that is except the 1-on-1 mentoring, the one thing I was counting on. They remind you over and over again during the course that you need help/mentoring as you won't make it on your own. This is a sales pitch to get you to pay for the next level. The only time I spent with what they may have believed was a mentor was a 15min talk with a guy who'd done the next course and was experiencing success, and spent the whole time advising me to do the next course. Having worked as a coach my whole life I know what a mentor is and that ain't mentoring. And I agree, its almost impossible to make it without help, at least I haven't. If I'd have had some help and mentoring I probably wouldn't have hesitated to go the next level. It has the capacity to be a great course(especially for someone who understands trading already) but for a novice trying to survive without guidance its a lot of money flushed down the proverbial. Just another company that only cares whilst you're feeding the beast.

So I paid $147 for an up sell video replay full of screen shots from 2021 pretty poor really

I looked at a number of Trading courses and tried to make sense of the Forex market, I then came across Learn To Trade at the end of 2023, at first I thought it would probably be another BS training course.
I was pleasantly surprised at the Education, which made sense and the Platform which was very user-friendly.
I have learnt a lot and have advanced from my demo account to trading my own real hard-earned money and I am making progress, I am working towards making this my full-time gig.
Good community, Communication, Training and Support.

I have done 1 star review to get honest feedback from LTT.

Q. the $147 to gain access to the $10000 trading account and is the program is all inclusive . NO EXTRA money needed to purchase software etc.

Ok< further to LTT response below, If you Read Angie's review, she is absolutely correct.
If you register for $147 to get access to the $10,000 trading account, you do need to spend Approx. $5000 on the Smartcharts software and the monthly subscription. If you read the Terms and Conditions fine print, it tells you have to purchase the program and and profit you make up to 80% over the $10k, that gets paid off your program fee (IE Smartcharts software) its basically set up as a Prop Firm with a lot of conditions to trade the $10K.
Not going to get caught twice with this business and subsequently have cancelled my course registration.
Ill give you 2 stars LTT for responding.

1 year in the program without results

#1: "SmartCharts does the work for you." -> false! -> none of the coaches use SmartChart signals. At every coaching session they ask you to go on a "clean" chart and teach you "their way" of trading, which is independent of SC. (for ref: I was coached by 5 different coaches). If you want to trade, use any other free platform that also provide dozens of (free) signals.

#2: "AI" -> false! -> the AI extension for SC doesn't give any edge. It provides selected setups that either don't trigger, or don't result in profit. I've tried blindly placing all signals, or being selective; and in both cases ended up losing on average. In one of the coach's Discord community (100+ members), noone confirmed that AI consistently works, including the coach himself. But even if it would, you cant use it for the Prop Account.

#3 "Prop account" for 'Unlimited Wealth' members -> false! -> after more than a year I have not seen 1 in the UW community received grant to trade on the Prop Account. When I ask for 'success rate' at trainings, or coaching sessions, LTT never provide figures/stats regarding that. Plus, when I joined the UW program (Feb 2023) there were only 3 conditions, now (Apr 2024) there are 6 conditions. So if you want to trade prop accounts you're better off with any big provider (some which provide free challenges and analyse your performance - unlike LtT).

After seeing lots of glowing reviews of LTT and fancy adds and glowing testimonials, I purchased the Smartcharts package for around $5000 in 2022. I did the included 3 day course, after which I was assured I would have a trading strategy, but all I left with was the sales pitch to purchase an Ultimate Wealth package. Still with the original Smartcharts package, I practiced my trading on my demo account with the 3 free coaching sessions for the next 6 months. I then bought the Ultimate Wealth package to get a $20,000 funded account, realising I needed the training this included and the support of a mentor. I had just been made redundant and was assured by the CEO of LTT that I would be profitable in 6 months trading a strategy - that I still didn't have.
The coaches and webinars that I've received have been excellent and have given me lots of knowledge and understanding of the fundamentals of trading. However, my mentor is mostly non-existent and I have only been able to get in contact with him three times in nearly twelve months. This hasn't been ideal as I have been looking for guidance in my trading journey. LTT really needs to assure that anyone in this position - learning to trade - has access to support in some form, but really just needs to stand by all the assertions they made in their sales pitch.
Looking to fast track my trading, I purchased the AI package which Smartcharts claimed was trading at 80%+ correct trades. Even after completing the AI coaching sessions, it is still only trading at 10% correct trades. I have contacted Smartcharts about this on numerous occasions which has fallen on deaf ears and no action has been taken to rectify the problem.
To summarise, LTT have reneged on the following promises:
• I would be given a trading strategy
• I would be trading profitably in 6 months
• I would have a mentor for support
• The AI would trade at 80% or better
So after 18 months of training and at least $40,000 down, I am yet to see a profit. I have no complaints about the coaches and the webinars have been great, I am just disappointed that all the hype and the sales pitches have been so misguiding.

Since 13th March 2024 been blessed to find this group training is great support is great rest is your own work if you want to succeed put in the effort these guys teach you a lot

Why I keep getting ads from this company. Spam

Hi I joined learn to trade late Nov 2023. I have struggled with my trading for years. Up and down like a yo yo. Now I seem to be a bit more settled.Things seem to be turning around for me. Instead of losing then breakeven then losing I am no in profit and it seems to be staying that way for this month.The webinars I think are just great the trainers are so helpful,& the psychology lessons have helped me a lot.
The platform Smartcharts are a bit clunckie .the best thing about the charts everything is built in. All your lessons Webinars. The charts have a built in Trading signals so you can enter your trade without you having to worry about your lot sizes. Just follow what you have been taught by your coaches & you can make these trading signals work
Yes it is very expensive. But I am seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.Just follow what the moderators say & you can make this
Work

Trying to contact via phone is hard also sent an email days ago about trying to change my Zoom call date or time

I purchased a $10,000 trading account last 24 January 2024 and I have not received it yet. I messaged them on facebook and they asked me to email them and they were not helpful. I messaged them again on facebook and they have been ignoring my messages. I currently lost my job and I wanted to learn how trading works but they just scammed me. Please don’t purchase anything from there

I am lucky enough to only have lost $147 and about 5 hours of my time with this lot. There have been many others to have lost a lot more. I wanted to take the time and write a review in hope I save at least 1 person from investing a cent with Learn to Trade.
I am very aware of online scams and frauds. But this is a whole other level. They are extremely clever and crafty in their marketing and preys on vulnerable people desperate to make a change in their life and "selling a dream" pretty much.
I watched about an hour of a live facebook video where they were "giving away" $100,000 worth of trading accounts. They marketed this a "giveaway" with "no catches" in which 10 "lucky winners" each won a $10,000 trading account - with the only condition being that you attended their free Forex trading fast track course. To those who missed out on being one of the "lucky winners" were given an opportunity for a discount code to purchase the forex course instead. This is what I did, and this is where I made my second mistake. First being even spending time watching the video.
The time came where I grabbed my cup of tea and sat down with my pen and paper hoping to learn something about trading. After 4 hours, my page was filled with motivational quotes in which was the only things they told us to write down. I learnt absolutely NOTHING about trading. How there is not more negative reviews I have no idea. I wrote a comment on their facebook page, which was not surprisingly... quickly deleted.
At the end of the 4 hour session of nothing, came the time where those 10 "lucky winners" found out in order to access their trading account they must pay roughly $9000 upfront and then a $149 ongoing monthly fee to access their account with the $10,000 loaded in it, where they keep 20% of all profits you earn also!
So I am hoping in my review I can save someone from falling for this. I am a hard person to sway to a scam. But this got me, so well played Learn to Trade. I will give you points for the most creative scam I have come across. You didnt get me to outlay the $9000 to access my $10000 account. But you got my $147 for the course about promoting the next level of the scam, and a waste of 5 hours of precious time. I actually did learn one thing... I learnt you dont need to learn trading to make money, you just need to know how to target the right audience with the right "course" and talk for 4 hours about how much money people are making instead of learning what the course intended. So for that, I thank you and you can have 1 star for that.

SCAMMER wolf in a Sheep Skin

Learn To Trade customer rip offs
Please note on below used abbreviations. Example:
Gxxx Sxxxxx= First letter of First name. First letter of Surname.

Learn To Trade guys boast that all we have to do is to follow the Trade entry and exit indicated on Smart Charts, but when following the smart chart indicators, it does not make profit but overall losses. An inferior quality of product with pretty colourful make-up, to disguise its poor functionality.
Then in the online seminar, Learn To Trade fails to explain the obvious SmartCharts flaws but tell the customer should check the signals as per the theory & principles of standard indicators, which was completely a deviation from the expectation created by the marketing materials which tempts you to enroll in SmartCharts.

Stay away from Gxxg.Sxkxx’s (@learntotrade.co.uk) Learn To Trade and Smart Chart sharks who after the seminar ask the customers to pay $48,000 discounted for me to $43,000 by Axdxcx Pxxtxxxlxx (@learntotrade.com.au) tried to convince me for an advanced course, as a final rip off attempt.

He suggested this $40K to me when I pointed out the losses I have encountered, with 2 week clear record of trades I have done on Smart Charts by following its own generated signals. I told him these $40K story and story that we have to do our own customer research were not told to the customer during purchase of the subscription (initial payment $4995 and monthly ongoing $149).

Stay away from them. I feel sorry for those who were at the introductory online seminar where few retirees said they were investing their superannuation funds on this.

Learn To Trade and Smart Chart personnel (Gxxg Sxxkxx, Tyxxxx Stxxxx, Ixy Cxtcxbxy, Rxx Rxxxlexx, Axdxxx Pxxtcxxlxx) have behaved themselves like heartless vultures that target the weak & the slow souls to consume, which is a trait of animals in the jungles. What a shame they have done to a civilized society in Australia !!!

******** I have added below today on 01/March/2024: ********
Learn to Trade has replied today as per their separate reply-box space below.

They say the customers have to follow Learn To Trade's coaching sessions. Of course... but what they should coach is, on how to use their SmartCharts which they promote as extremely capable of indicating Entry, Exit and Stop Loss.
THIS FUNCTION of SmartChart was the feature what the customers paid their down payment approximately $5K and on going $149/month for.

When this vital function does not work, Learn To Trade tries to teach the customer the principles & theory of Forex trading to disguise the non-reliable trading signals generated by SmartCharts which they promoted & sold to the customer.

If we wanted to learn the trading theory, then we didn't have to pay these sharks $5K. Why we came to Learn To Trade was to use SmartChart as a reliable tool to place our Trades which it FAILED to PERFORM. So don't try to cover up Learn To Trade & SmartChart cheating the customers to an inferior product by misleading promotion.

Learn To Trade has said in their reply below, that they are constantly working to improve SmartCharts. OK, good, now refund my $4995 until you improve SmartCharts to a level that it is capable of generating the Trade signals the customers can rely on. The customers are not crazy to pay their hard earned money as subscriptions, to fund Learn To Trade's software development, the customers are not shareholders of Learn To Trade SmartCharts.

The customers have subscribed to SmartCharts expecting a USABLE, RELIABLE Trading Tool, which Learn To Trade has FAILED to provide.

When I did this 3 day course I had no idea of what to expect. Learning how the strategies they use made everything a lot easier to understand which gave me confidence in sorting out the best trades with the best indicators. I have now got the plans and understanding using smart charts to analyze and read how the market moves. Smart charts gives you a better choice on what trades to look at and improves the overall strategy of choice using the best indicators to help you on your journey. Absolutely awesome.

Stop "Diddling" About!
I really enjoyed my recent 3 day event. The training was sound and I learnt more about myself as a trader.
Hanging out with the right crowd at last.

After taking the leap and paying the fee and starting my training i was relieved to see that the ltt team didn't desert me and that the whole thing was not some scam. On the contrary, they were friendly, professional, encouraging and genuinely wanted to teach people and share the success that they have achieved. Knowing full well the fx pond is big enough for everyone. The smart charts platform is a fantastic tool, but like any tool it needs to be used correctly to be affective. The team obviously know this and impress on the students the importance of learning the systems and risk management. Its not a get rich quick scheme. Its learning a new skill and if done correctly the potential can be life changing.

So glad I was able to attend this 3 Day Course. The Learnings I took away was like no other.
Being a Beginner I had placed a few Trades prior to taking this course with very little success. The 3 Day LFX Course was able to help me pinpoint what I was doing wrong and where I needed to change.
I have since placed a few trades following the course and the positive results have really given me confidence to keep going.

Love the ease of use of the Smartcharts Platform. Looking forward to continuing this very exciting journey
