Everything they teach is accurate. It only took me a few months of practice, and I make enough to quit my 9-5 day job if I wanted to. The support is great, Mentors are great, A+ all around.
I was definitely afraid that it was a scam when I first joined. But the money in my account says otherwise lol.

Upon reading there NDA I decided not to…
Upon reading there NDA I decided not to do business with them. For simple reasons like your are screwed once you sign it and send it back. So I asked for a refund and they said it would take 7-14 business days. Which is total BS. They are the type of business that will sit on your refund till they make interest on it and then send it back. I highly recommend doing your research and not spending 1K to read such a worthless NDA. I honestly believe that most of these reviews are fake. The market is flooded with trading Algorithms And I wish i could honestly share a good company to work with but nope. Still looking.......

We’re sorry the NDA made you uncomfortable, and we respect your decision not to move forward. However, we want to correct several statements in this review.
We have never delayed a refund to earn interest, nor have we ever made a penny of interest from a customer’s refund. The quoted 7–14-business-day timeframe accounts for our processing time and the additional time credit card processors and banks may require to return funds to an account. This is a standard processing estimate—not an attempt to hold anyone’s money. We’re a small business made up of a few dozen dedicated mentors, and holding $1,000 for several days would not generate meaningful interest in any case.
We have also never created, purchased, or posted a fake review or used fake followers. Reviews reflect the opinions and experiences of individual customers, and Trustpilot’s policies prohibit businesses from submitting fabricated reviews. The fact that this critical review appears publicly and can be answered openly is part of that transparent process.
Regarding the NDA, its purpose is not to “screw” anyone. It is intended to protect a specific trading strategy that took considerable time and effort to develop. If the strategy were published and used indiscriminately by a very large number of traders, it could become saturated and less effective. In simple terms, the NDA asks customers not to publish or distribute the proprietary details of the strategy.
In our five years of business, we have never pursued a customer for violating this NDA. Its purpose is to protect the material, not to threaten or trap our members. Many customers understand and appreciate why the strategy needs to remain within the community, although we recognize that this type of agreement will not be right for everyone.
You are entitled to share your opinion, but the allegations that we profit by withholding refunds or manufacture reviews are simply untrue.

Finally a genuine educational company!!!
I have taken quite a few courses over my 56 years. None come close to the support, what is working today, and overall environment 20 Minute Trader offers. They have given me the opportunity to take the first steps towards a better financial future for myself and my family.

20-MT is the real deal
20-MT is the real deal. If you want up to date futures trading skills then you are in the right place. I have gone from zero knowledge of futures trading to feeling very confident placing good trades daily as a result of this program. I highly recommend this program.

This is the best program you'd find
This is the best program you'd find. They perform way beyond the call of duty, so to speak. They are very responsive, patient and communicative which is the crux of the matter as everything gets lost in miscommunication. They go out of their way to make ensure learning is achieved. You found your trading guru in 20 minute trading. Let's thank God for everything! 🙏

ROI isn't there for most people
Don't pay for trading courses like this. Thousands of dollars that is 50/50 if it can work for anybody. Do you want to pay for a slot machine style trading course? This is it. It's fun and the mentors keep everything engaging.
The online world is filled with free trading information about institutional order flow, entering trades in zones of importance, but this is designed with real trading in mind and won't teach it to you.
If I were to start trading over I would research online as much as you can before you spend the thousands of dollars this team asks of it's students. I remained a member of the team for 6 months with little education or profit to show for it.

KD, we’re genuinely sorry that your six months with 20 Minute Trader did not provide the education or results you expected.
You are correct that the internet is filled with free trading information. Nearly everything taught in paid trading programs, including ours, can be found somewhere on YouTube or through other online resources. Someone willing to spend enough time researching those resources may ultimately develop a broader trading education than we provide.
What 20 Minute Trader offers is not intended to be a comprehensive education in every trading concept or strategy. We focus on one specific setup, the Gold Pattern, and teach only the chart knowledge and platform functions needed to identify and trade its four criteria. The goal is to give beginners a clear path without overwhelming them with countless indicators, menus, symbols, strategies, and chart configurations.
The Gold Pattern has been researched using millions of historical backtests. We have also conducted multiple R&D labs and clinics involving hundreds of people, ranging from complete beginners to experienced traders. These sessions helped us continually test the criteria, confirm that the pattern was still performing, and optimize it to identify the easiest and most profitable ways to use it.
Students are taught how to use the trading platform, practice the pattern through paper trading, and develop a sufficiently consistent win rate before trading live. They can also watch professional traders trade the pattern live so they can learn, improve, and see what the setup looks like under real market conditions.
Students are then given a free challenge account to trade, so they do not have to put up their own trading capital. This eliminates the risk of losing their personal trading capital while completing that challenge.
Trading always involves risk, and no strategy will work for everyone or guarantee profits. However, in a survey sent to everyone who had ever purchased a service from us, 68.4% of respondents reported that they were profitable using the strategy. By comparison, commonly cited research places the overall success rate for day traders, including those learning independently through free online resources, below 10%.
That does not diminish your experience, and we’re sorry the program and the mentorship available did not produce a positive outcome for you. We appreciate your honest feedback and agree that everyone should thoroughly research both trading and any educational program before spending money.

20MT
I was introduced to 20MT about 5 years ago. It wasn't of interest then but the friend who introduced me reintroduced and I attended the video call on it. Now I was interested. In the 6+ months with the group, they have really matured and improved teaching methods and results. I just finished trading 8 times with 7 winners. I'm starting to get the hang of the program. It takes some time and observation. But the trainers are solid and the network is great.
