What joy to find a group of solid, transparent, and honest traders that provide the best tools and training in the industry designed to help take your trading to new successful heights! I was new to trading when I discovered Simpler Trading, and they added significant resources to my intense and continuing education. I may not have a notable name within the industry but I am a simple trader looking for an edge and they provide best-in-class trading programs to suit a beginner, intermediate, and expert traders.

Disappointed with Jon McKeever
verall, I am very disappointed with Jonathan McKeever and my experience in his trading room.
In my experience, the room often lacks focus on actual trading education. Discussions frequently drift away from actionable market analysis, and it feels like members' questions are often ignored or left unanswered. As someone paying a premium membership fee, I expected much more engagement, transparency, and commitment to helping traders improve.
I also found the trading approach to be overly aggressive for many traders, and I would have liked to see more discussion of losing trades and the lessons learned from them. Consistently reviewing both winning and losing trades is an important part of teaching risk management, and I didn't feel enough emphasis was placed on that.
For the amount being charged, I don't believe the overall value met my expectations.
On the other hand, Melissa is an exceptional trader and educator. Her patience, discipline, and ability to explain complex concepts in a simple, structured way are outstanding. She genuinely takes the time to teach, answer questions, and ensure that members understand the material. Her level of knowledge and teaching ability is exceptional.
While Melissa learned from Jonathan, I believe her teaching style sets a much higher standard. Jonathan could benefit from adopting more of Melissa's patience, discipline, transparency, and willingness to engage with members.
Overall, this review reflects my personal experience. Unfortunately, I was left disappointed and did not feel the trading room provided the value or support I expected for the price.

Thank you for taking the time to share your honest feedback. I'm sorry to hear your experience with Jon's room didn't meet your expectations.
Every trader has a different risk tolerance and trading style, and Jonathan is definitely a more aggressive trader. We understand that approach isn't the right fit for everyone, and it's important to find an educator whose style aligns with your own goals and comfort level.
I'm also glad to hear how much you've enjoyed learning from Melissa. If her teaching style is a better fit for you, we'd be happy to help you switch to the room where she primarily trades. Just give our support team a call at 512-266-8659, and we'll be happy to assist you.

We’ll been there for a month and have lost 40% (over seven 100% options losses) of the value of my trading account. Devastated.

I've been part of Trendy Trading and Trendy SPX for the past few months, attending classes led by Mel and Jon, and it has been a truly rewarding experience. I'm deeply grateful for the way they share their knowledge and make trading feel approachable and achievable. What sets them apart is how genuinely they care about their community — always responsive, honest, and present whenever a question arises. They go beyond being skilled traders; they are real mentors who invest extra effort to ensure every member has a real shot at success. I look forward to being part of this community for a long time to come.

This is the place!
If you need to learn about trading or are a seasoned trader, I would give Jon and Melissa a look. You will learn and both care about your success. Lots of resources and recorded sessions for education. It's also a lot of fun and the room members are great people.
