I have been with Prosper for approximately 2 years. Training lessons are very numerous and helpful. I am on the positive side of my investments. Some have been great gains. Very few extreme losses. The traders give you guidelines that can be applied to your overall trading. I can always ask questions for better understanding.

I have been a lifetime member since…2021
I have been a lifetime member since 2021
I’ve been trading options since the inception of CBOE with a level 3
The trading information has been exceptional and the generated trades have made me money over the past 5 years
Oh yes there are a few losses here and there but the profitable trades are probably 90 percent
I extended my experience this year to the futures trading platform through Dan Obrian
I started small and planing to invest more in the platform as the day trading is great
Also I joined the Crypto platform it’s the future of our trading currencies worldwide
My suggestion!!!
Give Prosper a call

Prosper Trading Academy…
I started with Prosper Trading Academy in January of 2025.
From the very beginning the staff has worked very hard helping and educating me in the art of trading. Very professional, very smart, and they've answered every question. Very high ethics, I am proud to be a student. I am making good money trading with them.

I could not be happier with Prosper…
I could not be happier with Prosper Trading Academy. I have always been a disciplined investor, but knew nothing of options trading or futures trading. Through their education, I have learned so much and have been incredibly successful. My ROI in June was over 100% alone.
I bought access to Scott's Options Volatility, Charlie's Momentum Room, and Dan's Futures Rooms. All are great teachers and with the 3 programs I have many tools to address different market conditions. Of the 3, Scott's room is the most beginner friendly, one could just follow his signals and then learn on the way. The Momentum room is for day trading options (this is the most advanced), and the futures room is for trading futures through an algorithmic trading software.
I think it's important to set expectations correctly though. There is no golden goose, learning will take a lot of time, effort, and practice to be successful, but they are there to help, are wealth of information, and love to teach. Even the Future's Algo requires judgement and understanding, it is not meant to take trades blindly.
Also, depending on the capital you have to trade, it might take longer to make back your course costs. I would recommend at least 10k to trade and start with either Scott's Option Volatility, Charlie's AI Room, or Dan's Future's Algo. Then you can scale up and add rooms as you are successful and profitable.
If leveraging capital as part of your investing strategy is a goal, this group is the real deal. One of the most gratifying experiences has been on some of the recent "red" days. 90% of my portfolio is in equities, and will only gain value when they/the market is positive. I now have the tools to make money when the market goes down too, and some of my best days have been the most red days. So when everyone was complaining about how much money they "lost" in the stock market, I was able to mitigate and negate those losses. And of course, as the market has recovered, the value of my equities has come roaring back, bolstered by all the tools I now have in my possession. The information, coaching, and even comradery in the rooms has made me a lifetime subscriber to their programs.

I'm 70 living on a farm in northern…
I'm 70 living on a farm in northern Vermont. Never traded stocks before. In fact, the market has always mystified me. With few ways to make any money at this point, I turned to Prosper Trading Academy for help interpreting market and price movements and understanding how I might make some extra income by working 2-3 hours a day. After a few weeks studying some of the Academy's extensive array of resources, monitoring Charlie Moon's Momentum trading room, and paper trading, I took the plunge using my own hard earned retirement funds. So far, so good! Over my first 28 trading days, I'm averaging $730 a day. To be sure, I've had some down days, but overall, I'm surprising myself. Couldn't, wouldn't want to do this on my own. And, I'm just scratching the surface of the various ways Prosper teaches you to trade. Educated, measured risk-taking is paying off for me thanks to the team at Prosper.

I have been a member of Prosper Trading…
I have been a member of Prosper Trading for over 3 years. Leadership of Prosper has proven to be top quality people as well as traders, and they are always available to the members. I have had the same account manger, Michael Philpot for the entire time I've been involved with Prosper- that alone says a lot about the organization. I have looked at many other services over the years, and this is the only one that works. Mike has been very accommodating over the years, and always listens to my requests and does everything he can to provide a positive experience. Highly recommended!
