SMB CapitalReviews of smbtraining.com

Their DNA Course deal says you get 3 bonuses YOU DO NOT! I took their "DEAL" and paid $2000 for the SMB Capital DNA Course. 80%-90% had nothing to do with trading. It was Indoctrination into their trading culture. This is just recruiting for them and you pay. At the end of their advertisement they write that you will get some "lifetime" bonuses. Maybe so if your "Lifetime" is only 10 weeks. They have better trading Videos on the youtube for free( with ads) than in their paid DNA Course. FINVIZ does all the scanning you need but you can be using scanners on a platform like Tradestation or ThinkOrSwim . I took $2500 on ETrade and using Finvix made that into $16,500 in a year. SMB Capital is not "WRONG" just is not worth the money. They do not have a magic bullet for trading. On YOUTUBE you can find many good videos on trading. The Turtle Traders got 2 weeks of training and a $1,000,000 account to start making money and made millions eventually. The SMB Capital traders start with $500,000 most of their traders lose money for a year or two. Even Lance Breitstein lost money for 2 years before getting it together. Watch Bruce Lee youtube interviews and talks and learn to be like water and patiently wait and wait and know the moment to strike. Practice practice and practice. This will replace 80% of SMB's DNA Course. See videos of Raghee Horner, The Rumers,The ONE LanceB , Kyle Williams ( stock trader) or even videos by Tim Sykes and the youtube videos of SMB Capital and try them on simulation until you understand them. Keep a journal to help remember. THEN choose what strategies that are best for you. -------------------------------------------------- SMB Capital strategies are for large money trading accounts. If You do not have $50,000 in your account it will take many years to to get there with SMB unless you work for them. If you have $25,000 or $10,000 or just $5,000 Then there are other trading strategies that would be better. Alex Temiz ( My Investing Club) teaches short selling on his Youtube channel free. Tim Sykes is a long seller with free youtube for small traders.

Right out of the box they want you to buy another program - they say is not theirs. They then uses this program in all their video training. I have a 24in monitor and still can't follow due to the very small text used in that program. They then start right up front with some complex options info which a beginner couldn't understand. In their Q@A they spent about 20 mins answering ONE PERSONS QUESTION - great for that one person but what about all the other questions? Later they do explain most all the options which is good but way too little info for the price. I would not recommend buying this program.

SMB Capital is one of the few transparent prop firms that openly shares institutional trading processes in their Youtube Channel instead of keeping them behind closed doors. I've been following them for years, and they've played a significant role in helping me transition toward a professional, institutional approach to trading.

PLEASE DONT BUY ANY COURSES THEY ARE INFERIOR QUALITY AND EXTREMELY OUTDATED ! SMB DNA - basic content can be found online , waste of time and money. SMB winning trader - nothing good about this either, old content basic support resistance breakdowns breakout videos. no real value in any of their courses. THEY KEEP TALKING ABOUT HOW GOOD THEIR TRADERS ARE ETC. NO STRUCTURE IN THEIR COURSES, VIDEOS ARE ALL OVER THE PLACE. THEY DONT EVEN TEACH YOU ADVANCED STRATEGIES ALL THEY TALK ABOUT IS BASIC MATERIAL AND HOW GOOD YOU CAN BE. blah blah. there ae way way way better courses out there and much cheaper !

This program is not worth $100, let alone the $5,000+ they charge. What you receive is generic, recycled trading content that can be found for free on YouTube. There is nothing proprietary, nothing advanced, and nothing that justifies the price. It becomes painfully obvious very quickly that there is no real edge being taught. Most videos are a complete waste of time. Instructors speak in circles repeating the same phrases over and over: “Our traders are great.” “You can be great too.” Yet they never explain how. They constantly tell you to build your own trading edge—while failing to teach a single concrete, repeatable strategy. There are no defined setups, no clear entry/exit logic, no risk framework—just vague concepts and motivational talk. If this is “education,” it’s an extremely poor excuse for it. The main idea pushed is breakout trading, which is one of the most common retail traps in modern markets. There is no serious discussion of order flow, market microstructure, or advanced tape reading. Despite these being heavily implied during the sales process, you later discover that anything remotely advanced costs extra—if it’s available at all. Programs like SMB DNA and Winning Trader feel severely outdated, closer to material from 2010–2015 that does not reflect how today’s markets actually trade. This alone makes the pricing borderline insulting. For beginners, this program is arguably dangerous. There is no structured curriculum, no logical progression, and no foundation-building. Every video feels random—different instructors talking about unrelated topics with zero cohesion. Instead of teaching trading, they talk around trading. At some point it becomes clear: this is marketing and branding disguised as education. You’re paying for stories, self-praise, and vague encouragement—not real trading skills. If you are serious about learning to trade, stay away. This program offers no value, no structure, and no edge—only a very expensive lesson in buyer’s remorse.

Serious business with great insight and a no-nonsense approach to trading that avoids the get rich quick schemes you see elsewhere. Some of the packages they offer are very overpriced, and the online seminars you can join are just hard sell conversion funnels (come on guys please fix before they make you look cheap and hurt your reputation), but overall they deliver good insight, if you are willing to put in the time and work to become a profitable trader . Good service.

Great experience

SMB are the top number one expert prop firm in education and trainers, coaches and mentors if you want to think and trade like a professional trader and make a life long commitment to your art. I was somewhat surprised to find them here and with no reviews, I have left a Google review too as they have hundreds of 5 star reviews there. I think they prefer Google reviews, but as they are here I don’t see why I should not share my life changing experience about this incredible firm and its amazing people. I found SMB through reading trading books and for anyone that wants to work at a prop firm or trade their own funds then you must read One Good Trade and The Playbook by Mike Bellafiore.
