Why “fake it until you make it” is rubbish

Aug 10, 2018

Can you cheat in trading?

Aug 6, 2018

Yes, it’s true... when it comes to the markets, I’m a cheat. And with all honesty, I cheat a lot. It allows me to get ahead of other traders and literally take their money. But, I don’t call it “cheating” in front of others, because they may think badly of me, so I...

"Thanks everyone for all the tips, and big thanks to Tomas & Andrew for getting this info out. I cannot imagine how much time (and money) these courses have saved me. Up until this point I had assumed a 10-year optimization (with 20% OOS) followed by a SWFA was adequate robustness testing to start trading a strategy live."
Nathan Breakout Strategies Masterclass Student

"This really is a game-changing course and one that was worth every penny."
Alan Market Internals Student

"Tomas, Andrew and their team put together a thought through, very well structured program. I can recommend this to anyone who wants to develop very robust strategies in many different markets."
Oliver Breakout Strategies Masterclass Student

This year I'm much better than I was one year ago before I bought your Trading Market Internals course. This was for me very, very important to improve myself. I'm more confident in trading, especially in trading stock indexes, because of Better Trading Academy.
I'm very, very thankful to you and Tomas, this is very good work.

"As a programmer who has been fiddling with automated trading via AmiBroker and standalone Interactive Brokers API I kind of thought 'Oh well, another set of rules to program, might be interesting, may as well have a look'.
I was completely blown away by Tomas' automated strategy creation idea - so obvious in retrospect, but so clever. Effectively optimizing the strategies rather than the parameters. Game-changer."
Dave Emini Breakout Strategies Student

"Thank you Tomas and Andrew. I appreciate your honest transparency and commitment to excellence. This speaks volumes to your market and will place you well above the rest!"
Phil Breakout Strategies Masterclass Student

I really like the Breakout Masterclass and it's a quite unique way in developing strategies.
Patrick Dütsch Breakout Strategies Masterclass Student

"I recently bought the e-mini breakout course. Ton of value there! Just the lesson with the practical walkthrough of the smart code is worth the whole price of the course. Wow!
Also, I work in a large U.S. corporation, and I see a lot of presentations and training materials. The way the course was laid out and formatted is Top Notch and very professional."
Brian Emini Breakout Strategies Student

"I've not even watched past module 3 and already I've found a solid use for Market Internals in my own trading system!
I'm really impressed by what I've tested already- I've been trading for nearly 11 years and I've never thought of using something so conceptually simple but so powerful"
Craig Market Internals Student

"You want to be sure your money is well spent and it is usable out of the box...save time and re-use the knowledge of other experienced traders."
