Trading simplified

The startrading team and community is what makes it great. Lewis is a genuine guy and isn’t selling get rich quick. He has built an extremely supportive environment that simplifies trading for beginners or those with prior experience.

Amazing experience!

Amazing experience!
The community is incredible, and the coaching is top-notch! Both Josh and Lewis are fantastic mentors who have fostered an environment where students support each other's growth. No matter your level of experience in trading, everyone is embraced and encouraged.

When I joined, I was completely new to trading and now I’ve mastered three strategies that I’m live trading.

I would highly recommend StarTrading to anyone looking to learn trading and establish an additional income stream.

Best decision I've made for myself

I joined Star trading in June 2023. I really enjoyed the launch sessions that explained about candles, charts and patterns. This is the fundamental information I had been missing when I tried self teaching. After the launch you join weekly feedback sessions. This was my favourite part of the course and where I gained the most value and was able to improve and really hone my skillset. Ive really enjoyed being part of the startrading community. Everyone is working to the same goal and always helping each other out and the ongoing support from the mentors is brilliant and very encouraging.

Recommend recommend recommend! You won't regret it.

Disappointing, Misleading, and Overhyped Course

I purchased the Platinum StarTrading course on the 2nd of June 2023, and I am extremely disappointed with the experience. Here are the key issues:

1. False Promises: The advertisement for this course claimed that I would become a proficient forex trader if I followed the training. This is entirely unrealistic and misleading. The course barely covered the basics, let alone advanced strategies (we weren’t even taught what the pip is) required for successful trading. Nevertheless, I followed the training and trusted the mentors with all my heart being enchanted by their stories. I want to mention that I had no prior experience in trading, and so I was an ideal candidate for that company. Being a very diligent student, as a consequence I was shortly chosen a Star of The Month and then a Star Of The Year which proves that I followed the strategies consistently. However, there are no promised results. There is a missing link between backtesting and live trading and this is not only my opinion, more mentees are thinking this way. It’s been a year since I joined the ST, and unfortunately, the results are not even close to the advertised ones like being able to leave work, take care of my loved ones, or retire early due to successful trading.

2. Overhyped Success Stories: The promotional material featured numerous success stories, suggesting that previous students made significant profits quickly. After completing the course, it became clear that these examples were cherry-picked and did not represent the average experience as everyone who was asked to give positive and positive opinion only ( including myself ) was at the very early stage of the training or live trading, knowing very little about it and still being full of hopes and stories about the promised financial freedom.

3. Poor Quality Content: The online course content was mediocre. Videos were poorly produced, and the accompanying materials were riddled with errors, even grammatical ones. Students would point that on the discord channel but would be usually ignored or removed from the community as there is “ no negativity policy “. It felt like the content was hastily put together without proper vetting or expertise.

4.. No Refund Policy: Despite my claim, there is no option for a refund. This was not communicated at the time of purchase, adding to the overall feeling of being scammed, especially given the very high price point.

In conclusion, this course did not live up to its advertised claims. It was a massive waste of time and money, and I feel misled by the false promises of financial freedom. I would strongly advise others to be wary of such overhyped and misleading courses and to look for more credible and transparent sources of forex trading education.

I have traded before on Forex with…

I have traded before on Forex with other trading platforms. Yes, Ive made a little but lost a lot. These were companies in the Mediterean. So when I found a webinar from the UK. I attended and was surprised to receive an offer for 5 days training for just £20, I jumped at the opportunity. That offer is on March 25th - 29th. I'll let you know if I am impressed further.

Further to my original review.
As it happens I was unable to attend their Mon - Fri webinars. I did get the reloads and there were one or two instances that I found improved that what I already knew. At the end it turns out rather too much for me to spend. Plus the 20% VAT on top of the educational charges is far more than I as a pensioner can put out. I'm sure that IF you want this and can afford it. You will likely learn from it?

Launch Mentorship

The Launch mentorship through STARTrading has placed me in a strong position to incorporate trading into my everyday routine.

From the first point of contact to the last, the team have been on point ensuring I have the necessary tools to start trading sensibly and profitably.

The 1-2-1 mentorship calls with Josh were extremely beneficial and have enabled me to place good trades Josh's knowledge also helped me fine tune my backtesting and trading skillset.

Thanks again for placing me in great position to take trading to the next level.

I couldn't recommend StarTrading…

I couldn't recommend StarTrading enough! Lewis and Josh really helped me with the strategies to follow as well as the mindset needed when trading. I was a bit skeptical at the beginning and wondered how this could work for me and turn this skill into a profitable vehicle to protect my finances without being stuck on a laptop screen 24/7. obviously it all worked out well and they went beyond my expectations guiding me through each strategy, supporting and filling up the knowledge gap I had. What i really like is also the very active community: everyone sharing their learnings and really connecting making this a group I can also ask questions without feeling I'm out of my depth. Last year I have grown my portfolio by 5% in the space of 3months and I know I could have achieved way more if I was to invest more time that I am currently doing ( about 15mins every day). Well happy with my results and grateful to Lewis and Josh for hand hold me through the process right at the start. Kudos.

Do it!

I’ve been interested in Forex Trading for a while but saw so many choices for courses, I wasn’t really sure if they were the real deal or not. I’d seen Lewis and StarTrading pop on my FB feed several times, and finally signed up for Forex in Five in August 2023. From then on, that was it, I joined StarTrading and it’s been a great journey. The content is excellent and the mentors are absolutely fantastic! But the community you are amongst are amazing too - everyone is incredibly supportive, encouraging and helpful. I’ve started live trading and the mentality is different to when you are learning the strategies. However, StarTrading not only teach you the strategies, they teach you how to be safe and build your confidence. I definitely recommend joining StarTrading – I just wish I found them sooner!

The best decision I made was joining…

The best decision I made was joining the StarTrading mentorship program. The coaches are incredibly knowledgeable and experianced in the trading industry. They were patient and explained everything in detail, making sure you understand the concepts before moving onto the next step.

One of the other great things is their sense of community. They have a dedicated forum where members can ask questions and share their experiances, it's a great way to learn from others and get support.

Thanks to StarTrading, I now have a solid understanding of trading and feel confident in my ability to trade safely and with low risk. I have been taught one stratagy so far and am now looking forward to learning more with their program.

If you are looking to learn to trade, I highly recommend StarTrading, their mentorship program has been a game changer for me and I wish I had found them sooner.

Fantastic course!

Fantastic community, and great coaching! Lewis and Josh are great coaches and how they build a community for the students to learn off of each other is amazing. It doesn’t matter where you are in your trading journey everyone is welcome!

I started off as a complete beginner and in 8 months I have learnt 3 strategies that I am now trading live and currently learning a fourth

I would highly recommend StarTrading for anyone that wants to learn trading and wants another income stream

go for it!

I signed up to star trading after doing the forex in five event which I would highly recommend if you’re interested in trading. The training and mentorship has been excellent. These guys really know what they’re talking about and are experienced traders themselves. The training is comprehensive and supportive and I feel like they trained me fully until I was ready to trade live.

I am now seeing a good increase in my account each month and this really will be life changing for me and my family. If you have a laptop and WiFi it’s a no brainier! Go for it.

This could change your life

I joined STARTrading a earlier in the year after looking into Forex for a little while online. It was probably one of the best decisions I've ever made, I'm learning so much that would take years to learn independently, the mentoring is second to none, Lewis and Josh are patient, knowledgeable and personable and the community is incredible. I'm honoured to be a part of something so special and super excited to see what the rest of the year and beyond brings! Absolutely recommend to anyone!!

5 STARtrading!

Being a student and investing in a mentor these days is difficult since it is difficult to find legitimate mentors. I am honored to have discovered STAR Trading. Their ideals and ethics as a mentor and a community are unparalleled. The course is simple to follow. All of the strategies they teach have been tested, and the outcomes speak for themselves. Their training is tailored to each individual's trip and pace. I went from not knowing anything to trading profitably and managing risk within 12 months.

It's been a year with the group, and it's been one of the best decisions I've made in 2022. I'm pleased I began with them—excellent community and coaches!

STARTrading is the course to be on!!

STARTrading is a brilliant course to be on.
I like how the website is saved on my home page without lots of complicated log ins and going through lots of tabs to find where you are on the course.
I love how you get a reply as soon as Lewis is available. The support group is a huge bonus, you can ask questions and are supported by the community. Its all very easy to navigate. I've tried other courses and failed, lost money, been scammed and given false Hope. STARTrading gives real hope as if you follow it and are consistent then you will start to profit!! Following this course is easy, Lewis has taken everything
that makes trading complicated away. I'm so glad I found STARTrading.
