Interactive TraderReviews of interactivetrader.com

Couldn’t agree more with the last review. This is a scam. Not the concept their teaching, which the instructor is a professional at and knows what he’s talking about. Let’s make something clear, trading options is not a scam, it can lead to great wealth and if executed properly, can be the best asset you have ever had.. my issue is not with the concepts sold to the “consumers”. My issue is what everyone what sold. The hype, the bs sales tactics (grouping ppl together based on emotional surveys constantly used to gain info about what drives ppl to be able to use it as leverage to sell you a 20,000 k program by leveraging ur emotion. To start, the 1,300 fee to be there is sooooo over priced TD not even funny. On that alone I’m calling bs. I left and I was focused the whole time and I can’t even execute a single trade. The time was spent on emotional minapulation and classic sales tactics. Remember, it’s all down to a science right? The only science here is their ability to manipulate herds of people to get them to sign up for their program. If your considering this. Please. Don’t. They kept saying ur subconscious mind works better and makes the right calls. Well mine felt like I was being scammed from the first time the instructor shot down the first question ever asked. That same person was kicked out of the class and never came back the next day. Here’s the last review and I agree with it 100%. My friend signed up for event with Kevin O'Leary on Nov 20, 2018 speaking seminar and was duped in purchasing the $1,397 3-day workshop from Interactive Trader on the premise that he would get refunded the cost of the workshop after subscribing to their platform. I was invited as a guest and attended hoping there was something I could learn and having about 15 years experience in trading stocks and options, I found the course presentation dismissal, and sometimes rudeness by the instructor, and almost USELESS compared to what one should actually expect to learn for Options Trading... it would be overwhleming for the naive investor and those without knowledge, and in my opinion nothing more than a sales pitch for their $19,997 course sign-up. NOTHING MORE. Day 1 was a lot of "...we'll teach you that later.." and almost nothing in respect of option learning other than a sample trade without any real teaching being done, and under the premise of don't take notes, don't record the session presentation. There was a workbook, and did not even use it at all for first two days. Day 2 was a lot more of "...we'll teach you that later..." and a targeted sales pitch to confuse and overwhelm, some cheesy video about mice in a maze to find the cheese for 15 minutes (nothing to do with OPTIONS TRADING)... and lots of further sales pitches on you need to sign up to our $19,997 program in Utah to learn proper options tradings. As well as lots of constant sales tactics to offer and build "wealth" but you only if you are "coached by I.T.". Of the 8 hours on Day 2, I would estimate only 5 bites of knowledge that could have easily been taught in the span of 1 or 2 hours, plus questions (except questions were IMMEDIATELY DISALLOWED by the instructor). Workbook was provided with basic info on types of option strategies... call and put credit spreads and debit spreads, naked call and put writing, Iron Condor, etc. which can easily be obtained from internet searches on types of option strategies. Instructor was the same guy as a pitch for buying US real estate (Do a search youtube for Success Resources Australia) I counted 36 tables x 4 seats = 144 spots (assuming 1,000 for every signup + guest) = so they made $70,000 on the 3-day workshop. and took each two-some to pitch the $19,997 course... All I can say is WOW... a pretty good exploitation of the naive and beginner OPTION trader! In my opinion, for a novice option trader and wanted to learn something, I would say value for money was no more than a 1 out of 10. and $1,396 dollars SEVERELY OVERPRICED.

1st you see ad that gets you come to a free Millionaire Success Event at a local hotel; where they talk about to be successful and try to get you to sign up for an Options Trading course that cost $1097.00. I signed up for the 3 day options trading course. 2 hours after being there they were already trying to push another course down my throat that cost $15,000.00. Instead of them teaching me how to trade options 70% of the time was spent on them giving motivational speeches and them promoting an elite trading course for $15,000.00. I'm like I already paid you to teach me how to trade options. I left there and still don't have the basics down. Not worth the money or time at all.

I received a postcard invitation to attend a seminar on Retirement planning for people over 50. The card promised a $250 Starbucks card for attending and indicated that lunch would be provided. We I called to reserve my seat, I was given the impression this would be a luncheon. I arrived, with a guest and, upon checking in, I was advised that lunch would not be provided until after a 90 minute presentation! The seminar was scheduled for noon, so I had not eaten in anticipation of receiving lunch. Once the presentation started I was actually happy to see it was about trading options and stock investing, as that is the way my dad actually supplements his income. I was not impressed that there was a spelling error on one of the first slides they showed! Not such a slick presentation. I overlooked the oversight, and listened attentively to the rest. When the 3 day workshop was pitched, I thought it would be worthwhile for the $1497 to gain the tools to get started, as they promised a tuition reimbursement of $1000 if you participated in the live 3 day course and did 20 trades in 60 days following. Plus they were throwing in an additional online training course worth $497. I naively signed up with my credit card. I tried to ask the presenter a couple of questions but was brushed off after he realized I had already signed up! I was also not happy when I asked him about robin hood app to see if I could use it with this program. He hurriedly answered, while scoping out his next mark, that yes, but they didn't allow options trading. Another red flag, as I knew this to be incorrect. I sat down to wait for lunch. What a joke, a dry white bread turkey sandwich with a bag of bbq chips. I was starving by that time, so I ate it. After the closing video we were to receive our promised Starbucks cards. Lol, what a joke that turned out to be! I was given a code tot redeem online. When I got home I went online to redeem, and found out it is not a card at all! It is an account that will reimburse you $20 a month for a year only when you provide receipts each month! Deceptive marketing! Once I realized they were that deceptive in their marketing practices, I decided to do some online investigating. First of all I found out most people were paying $1000 for the 3 day workshop, NOT $1497, so basically they added the cost of the "free" training. I then read MANY postings about the 3 day workshop being basically a teaser for more advanced (and expensive) education programs. I then read the fine print on the tuition reimbursement requirements which would be very difficult to complete in addition to a minimum monetary commitment in addition to number of trades! The seminar was on Friday, I tried to call the customer service number to cancel on Saturday, but of course they are only open M-F for limited hours. I then called my credit card to dispute the charge as buyers remorse. Currently grateful for the buyer remorse laws!

We signed up for the course, then cancelled shortly after the seminar. We have been promised a refund for months, and nothing.... These are shady business practices! A complaint has been filed with BBB.

This was absolute wasting of time. The speaker was very enthusiastic, but he could not explain options very well. The one on one person was smiling and with her 12 years of experience she could not explain how does option work. It was a lot of talking, but no teaching, and no live trades as it was promised. And of course the main point was to sell 25K program. And you have to pay all the money upfront. But they already promised to reimburse $1000 for this workshop: “you just have to show up”. But when I showed up, I have to make 10 live options trades within 60 days. They did not even explain well how to trade options, so how we suppose to do it? It was a big dissapointment. With fake consultants and their worthless one on one sessions. Just complete wasting of time with no money back as promised. There is no reply option, but I do not need your best wishes, I need my money back.

Do your research. This is very manipulative. Do not invest in this program.

Such a joke! Your $997 means nothing after this class! And I was being sold the second I walked in on Thurs. night, until the end. Nauseating. They were trying to sell me on spending $15k to access all of the beloved software, and the “TML”. Barf. This company should be put in jail for asking people to pull their credit, and mortgage the house, to attend their “TML”, literally robbing people. So gross if you work for this company, you should be in jail. So disappointed in Kevin O’Leary having his name attached to this piece of poo.
