The Pattern Trader (Mark Shawzin)Reviews of thepatterntrader.com

Maybe Mark is a great trader but since I joined his community there are no learning materials such as training videos or learning lessons. He charged me alot of money for Zoom calls only while his agreements was stating more than this. In addition, when he saw that he was losing in the live market he switched again to trading options and started promoting his options course and wants us to pay more. I am not sure about his situation, I went ahead and checked about his company registration in USA and found out that the company is registered as a consultancy therefore he is not allowed to teach. Especially financial instruments. I also lost his latest trading recommendation on NVDA and MOU. His program is not worth investing in it. You might see the previous recommendation of clients who were with him for years but since his program changed a lot I totally don't recommend it for new clients.

This is my genuine experience and review of the pattern trader and Mark Shawzin to help others decide whether or not to join. They charged me $10,000 for a two year membership which is one of the most expensive programs out there and after 6 months I have not continued and will not be continuing with them. The attraction was that they seemed genuine and the Elite program I joined should have helped me to become a skilled trader and the fact that Mark gives daily trade recommendations should have helped to pay the investment back. Marks trades lost and continued to loose money. They said be patient but 6 months of loosing money was enough. How can I aspire to break even and then be profitable when the expert is just loosing money. The training is non existent. A few patterns and channels that you can get from any book. There is no real clear strategy or edge you are left to work out your own strategy. The daily sessions with Mark are useful to have a general view of the market but it doesn't teach you how to trade. The 4 coaching sessions were useful but again they don't teach you how to trade. They do give a guarantee but don't honour it. I didnt ask for the $25,000 guarantee or a refund I only asked to down grade to a cheaper program and Mark refused. In summary an extremely disappointing experience. My conclusion is that they make their money from cleaver marketing and selling training but not from trading.

Signed up to TPT after being emailed many times with (what it seemed) a great offer. Show up to his daily zoom calls, copy Marks detailed trades and if you were out of pocket, you would be refunded. This was also backed by a written contract. Six months into the program I contacted support with my concerns that I was still making losses. The coach I talked to offered little to zero advice and just said "it was better last year". Tried contacting support again as nothing had changed but no reply. Received no further contact from support until after my subscription had finished asking me to sign-up again. I contacted Mark direct and he replied telling me there would be no refund as I had not asked for any help after six months of starting which is nonsense as I still have the email proof. He says his policy is always to operate in an honest, transparent manner... what a joke. It seems the contract we signed is meaningless and just for marketing purposes. I have tried contacting Mark direct on numerous occasions to try and resolve this matter but I never receive a reply.

My money also gone forever, they have charged me $10,000 for two years whereas, I have found out that they charged other members $10,000 for 5 years. This is unfair at all. Not only that as per the agreement we signed with Mark that if we are not successful within the first year he will refund us back an additional $25,000. But when I asked him to refund at least one year fees of $5,000 he refused. In addition, the level of education that we are receiving from the pattern trader reduced by around 75% from what they have agreed to give us. He is saying that he is making his money from Trading but I believe his main source is the education arm because he refused to refund us when we asked him. This is called scamming your money. It is one of the biggest mistakes that I ever made by joining this community.

I am a member of this group long time , no benefits . I pay the life time membership, but I haven’t received any weekly trading advice for 4 months, no reason,I wrote email many times, but no answer. I lose my membership whenever I benefit or not, I am so sad

I have been with Mark for several years. I have made a great deal of money by following his system. Mark explains in detail what he is looking at, on the chart, and what he thinks price will do. He is correct most of the time. His training is right on. If you learn his system and follow it, your account will grow. Mark repeats often that we take trades with small risk and large rewards. If the trade doesn't act the way you think it should then get out, and look for another trade. Dick M

There are hundreds of different trading mentors and companies out there of which most of them I have belonged to over the 15 years of trading, so I have personal experience which ones work and which ones were a waste of money. I joined The Pattern Trader with Mark Shawzin over 6 years ago and he is my #1 Mentor for his insight and education on how to "read" the markets based on price pattern alone. It's amazing how much money you can make when you simplify the process! No more crazy looking charts, no more having to stay up on every news article to try to guess the markets next move, no more sleepless nights wondering if I placed the "right" trade. If you have a passion for trading, Mark would be the person to go. He's honest, shows his trades, what he would and would not do in certain trades, explains everything along the way. He does not complicate things. Instead he makes it so easy to understand a five year old would get it. Members always look forward to his morning live Briefs throughout the week before the market opens where you can interact with him with questions as well as his emails the afternoon before to set up for the next day trades and the Sunday recording of what to look for in the upcoming week. If I had to choose just one Mentor and had to get rid of the rest, it would be Mark Shawzin at The Pattern Trader. He really is the best!

Mark is a great and responsible person and have a great knowledge and experiences in Forex and stock market. His strategy for trading is amazing and produce great results.
