I had canceled my membership just over a week ago. I was on a 50% off discount for the options room fyi.
I had a string of bad trades I took from them as it's my fault as I normally just don't take them blindly. I got frustrated by this and canceled last week.
Once I thought about it, I did want to continue using the service as there are a couple good traders in the room.
I call today and see if I can get my rate back as it's only been 10 days. Haden tells me "no". He could have easily just made a few mouse clicks if he wanted to help me.
Just goes to show how they really don't value their customers as I've spent several thousand with them over the years.
Just be careful with this company and don't just blindly take their trades without checking the charts as the majority will be losers and you will just slowly bleed your account dry.

Terrible guidance on how to use their systems
I've been a customer for 9 months and 2k invested in big 3 squeeze system.
I've don't nothing but lose money following Taylor's trades.
I've contacted customer service once / month to ask how to use their site and system. I get no directions/help except to "watch the video".
I have watched them several times and it jumps over things that should be explained (thus rendering the system unusable).
I have 3 months left of access but, It is not time well spent.
If I could do it over again, I wouldn't buy their big 3 system... But knowing that, I wont try any of their other systems.
For now, I give up on even joining Taylor's live sessions.

Total scam
Total scam. They make all kinds of trades, most of which are losers and then when they finally have one thats a great winner, they develop and indicator and a class around that one trade and make it out to be the what you need to go to the next level. They then sell it to you at a ridiculous price. On top of that, like others have mentioned, I set my subscription to not renew but they charged me anyway and now will not refund my money. They can see how long its been since I logged in and now they have charged me for another 3 months for something I will never use. Do you really want to get involved with or sign up with a company who takes money from people that they havent earned? Complete shysters. BEWARE!!!!!!

scammy company
super scammy, and bad faith operator.
I thought I set the auto-renew to cancel, but they charged me $1970 and said that I never set it to cancel properly.
Regardless, even if it was an honest oversight, I caught it right away after annual billing. They're playing hard-ball and insisting on keeping unearned funds from me.
Response from Simpler TradingMar 14, 2024

long time member thinking of leaving
Simpler Trading futures room has become the Walmart of "master classes" and indicators. If you are wanting ton's of choice on these two fronts you have come to right place. However if you are looking for interactive chat room you won't find it here.
Response from Simpler TradingMar 14, 2024
Thank you for sharing your feedback on the Simpler Trading Futures room. However, we're sorry to hear that the interactive chat room aspect did not meet your expectations. We understand the importance of a dynamic and engaging community where members can interact, share insights, and support each other in real-time. Also, we’d like to note that the Future’s room has been merged into our Simpler Central room now. There is a nice, constant flow in that chat room throughout the duration of the day.
We encourage you to reach out to our customer support team at [email protected] with any specific suggestions or features you'd like to see implemented.
Thank you again for your review, and we look forward to making your experience with Simpler Trading even more rewarding.

Buyer beware of the constant cash grabs
I have purchased the quick hits, quant pivots, as well as many other software packages from simpler trading. With both quick hits and quant pivots, I spent well over $2k USD. In the latest webinar, John Carter advertised combining quick hits and quant pivots in a new class. Very generous offers were given for a package that included both indicators, the class, and live trading.... Significantly cheaper than what I paid for both indicators alone! No problem, this company will surely give me a generous discount for having both indicators already if I just want to attend the class. When I asked the question on the live webinar, they refused to answer, and instead directed me toward the customer service number. Now I know why. I was quoted on the phone $600. For the class alone!!!! That's half the price of the damn package. I feel completely swindled by this company, and this comes off as a cheap cash grab, recycling two old classes into a new one. You might think I have already received the old classes, why would I need this new one?? Well, I was hoping to get clarity on how to use quick hits with entry and exit rules ( the original quick hits webinar claimed clear concise rules that would apply to every trade, yet during the live trading and then months later in the gold room, trades were taken and exited completely discretionarily and arbitrarily of the rules set forth in the class. Now we worry about 1 minute chart arrows, now we don't. Now we ignore a 5m arrow going against us, now we don't. We don't use the dots anymore. Then all of a sudden he's using completely different time frames, with different layout.( which by the way I was told was unavailable to you, and would not be found in the class indicator folder).)
$600 to attend the class (my job means it is not possible to attend the live trading, so it is little to no value to me) means the indicators combined are $600 also, completely screwing over early customers. And this after a webinar John Carter claims he supposedly averages $20k a day in trading profits(how much of the yearly P&L is course, room subscription, and indicator sales though?). Do you know we out here are not wealthy folk? We are teachers, we are civil servants, we are military service men and women, we are single parents, and it's $100 dollars for a loaf of bread, a few vegetables and something to drink. Do you all feel any shame setting these kind of prices toward your loyal customers? I'm done with this company.
It should be noted that my opinion toward Raghee and trendy John are completely different toward the company as a whole.... And some other traders within the company may be worthwhile, but I simply don't know about them, and I will amend this review after I have spent sufficient time with both of the advice, to better inform the trader wanting to make a smart education decision. For now, I have to advise you avoid any of the John Carter branded products/indicators/courses

They leave out a lot that a new user…
They leave out a lot that a new user ought to be told about BEFORE signing up for their training programs, indicator and so on, like all the additional proprietary tools they spend SO MUCH time talking about that cost a fortune, like how to interpret those squiggly lines (only one of their traders has done a decent job of that) and how it's very unlikely that you will be able to buy, install and run the tools they sell you in those package deals without spending at least that much more, usually a lot more, just for the computing power to handle the trading platform. I signed up for two of their "indicators" and the "training" that goes with it, and watched their experienced traders go into a lot of failed trades. I think I know where they really make their money. It sure wasn't from their trades they were making. My last two years of trading strictly with my own tools, indicators and rules have been a lot more profitable than anything their staff was able to demonstrate. I'll stick to my own methods instead of wasting any more of my time or money on this crowd.
IMPORTANT UPDATE: On March 13, 2024 I was contacted by TrustPilot and informed that Simpler Trading had requested more information, specifically my order number, my full name, my email address and my phone number, or my review might be removed from the TrustPilot site. I have a funny feeling it was because they didn't like it.

I purchased the $10K to $1M Challenge…
I purchased the $10K to $1M Challenge Course. One month in and $10 is now $5K. After that we received 1 alert in the last 2 weeks. The teaching that was suppose to accompany the alert service is minimal at best. Communication between those running the course and students is confusing. There have been several IT issues as well. Questions are not answered. I an an experienced trader but new to futures which is why I started with this course. I paid for one quarter and after that I'm out. I can't see myself purchasing any other classes/services at Simpler Trading. Horrible Horrible experience.
