    Discuss is for general discussions of a financial company or issues related to companies.

    Info is for things like "Has anyone heard of Company X?" or "Is Company X legit or not?"

    Compare is for things like "Which of these 2 (or more) companies is best?"

    Searching is for things like "Help me pick a broker" or "What's the best VPS out there for trading?"

    Problem is for reporting an issue with a company. Please don't just scream "CompanyX is a scam!" It is much more useful to say "I can't withdraw my money from Company X" or "Company Y is not honoring their refund guarantee" in the subject line.
    Keep Problem discussions civil and lay out the facts of your case. Your goal should be to get your problem resolved or reported to the regulators, not to see how many insults you can put into the thread.

NeuroTrader review

After 6 months in the one year NeuroTrader Professional Peak Performance Trading Program, Ken Medanic, via his company Pelican Technologies, failed to deliver on his promises. I quit with 30 other traders.
The product is not ready, it's merely a prototype, doesn't scale and worked erratically for most of us (we were no more than 50).
Ken will never admit he could have done something wrong, or be sorry, or *make his customers feel* they are at the centre of his preoccupations.
His behaviour is consistent but he looks like an unscrupulous guy.
(you might read this same text on various website, I didn't bother to write a new review for each of them)
 
Ken is a man that lives in his own bubble, completely disconnected from reality. He's literally taken large amounts of money from a program called 'Peak Performance Trading', which I was part in, yet he never delivered on the promises that were made. He consistently failed to deliver the neuro trader biodata technology on the deadlines stipulated, ignored all the claims from 30+ members to get a refund, showed 0 respect towards us. While I have little hope that I will ever receive any refund, I want to contribute with my grain of salt to make sure that no one else goes through the same appalling experience I went through by being borderline scammed. Ken only provided an online course with a bunch of videos from which he had the delusion to think it entitles him to charge people 350usd/month, with 6 or 7 payments in advance... most of the promises he made, which were part of a contract we all signed, were not met. Eventually, life will put this individual in the place he deserves. Ironically, he claims to be a religious Christian person, yet his actions speak volumes of who really is. Stay away from Ken Medanic and the neuro trader program. The mounting number of negative reviews on the internet are a testament of that.
 
Agree absolutely with the previous two reviews. As toptrader says, Ken Medanic claims to be religious person and signs all his emails 'God Bless'. This is extremely irritating when he has 2800USD from me and clearly has absolutely no intention of supplying the services I paid for. His mindset course was one one the weirdest, most disturbing attempts at mentoriong I have come across for a very long time. See here for a few examples https://reviewneurotrader.blogspot.com/2019/06/kens-mindset-course.html.

The program was scheduled to start on 11th Feb. Today, on 26th June, this is what the so-called 'Neurotraderacademy' front page looks like https://reviewneurotrader.blogspot.com/. Yes, four months after the start date, the lesson was taken up with software fixes. Plus, he is contractually obliged to provide lesson every week to all levels on the the program. It appears that he has not done anything since Chris Capre, who was his business partner, walked away citing the poor quality of the program and Medanics' inability to meet deadlines.

Yes, definitely keep away!

Agree 100%.

As one of the 40+ students that joined Neurotrader Academy, I would like to suggest everybody to strongly avoid any kind of interaction with Ken Medanic, as he revealed himself as an improvised professional that ended up (probably involuntarily) scamming tenths of unlucky guinea pigs that gave him hundreds of dollars, if not thousands (speaking of the Pro Tier students).

There was supposed to be a hedge fund, based on a trading platform capable of handling hundreds of traders placing orders while being analysed by a bio-feedback device => the platform worked 3 times out of 20 attempts in my case, and some members never got the chance to login.

Moreover, there was no work on biodata during all 6 months of the program and Mr. Medanic didn't even discuss with us the chance for a refund. He simply revoked our logins and stop answering our emails.

What a peak performer.
 
Also agree 100%. I was also part of the Neurtrader Program and apart from being out of pocket $4500 got nothing to show for it. THERE IS NO HEDGE FUND that we were supposed to be trading for. THERE WAS NO BIO DATA collection from any of the students that was meant be analysed to improve our trading, the list goes on. Ken Medanic is a scammer who promises alot but delivers nothing. Avoid him like a plague!
 
Ken Medanic doesn't deserve even 1 star.

He has done it before and will keep doing it because he is best at:

- over selling something

- ignoring complaints

- take your money

- once you complain and leave the program after 6 months of 0 results, he will just ignore you and move on to the next prey.

You will have paid for promises unfulfilled and will never ever get any refund

In addition, you can also get some ridiculous coaching from Ken where he will discuss your relationships with your parents very deeply, you'll have one week to think about existential questions like "when did I stop allowing myself to earn money", a nice loop that could go on and on. Once again when you want to cancel and get a refund for the coaching not used: the response will be a total silence or an email saying: you are misinformed...

. I am part of the 40 traders who recently decided to leave the program after 8 months of constant delay and hope...

You've been warned, this being said, I wish you the best trading success
 
Like the others, I had a terrible experience with this site and had money stolen from me with no services provided. Ken Medanic lies compulsively has no shame in ripping people off. I also complained to Chris Capre about the service and he treated me condescendingly, told me that Ken was doing nothing wrong and he gave his "word" that nothing like a tacked on seventh payment would happen, then refused to respond to more emails. They are both truly terrible, dishonest people.
 
I am going to start legal proceedings against Ken & Chris here in Germany - please message me if you want to join.

Agreed - Chris managed to spin his side of things much better than Ken (who didn't even try) but Chris was 40% of the JV and took zero real responsibility - just words. I asked him he's ever actually met Ken but he didn't answer, but he did tell me that the system would never suit most traders anyway as you have to keep one hand still which would be impossiblöe for most active day traders. None of us would have got into this mess without Chris's sales techniques and he has still walked away with 40% of the profits -
