Problem G7FX Nirav NV Scammer

I am having an issue with a company
To be honest that wasn’t directed at your comment personally so apologies for that, you were very neutral and you see it from both sides and didn’t claim he was a scammer. Fair enough. Hence why I didn’t reply directly to you comment..

I don’t think 100% a month is realistic, but funnily enough NV says this himself and is very open to everyone he talks to that they shouldn’t expect these kind of results. He’s not claiming that if you buy his course and use his approach you’ll get the same, watch his youtube videos, he is openly honest about that.

Everyone is open to opinion and debate and of course we all want to do our due diligence and know if something is a scam or not. I’m just looking at the facts and I don’t see anything that points him or his course to being a scam.

My comment was more directed at the other guy talking about Nirav’s previous employment history and trying to use that to say something bad about the whole thing, I just don’t get it. Already explained why.

It’s ironic though, because that’s two people in here now who have said “yeah i got the course off someone” or “i got the course of TS courses for 70 dollars” from some pirate website, so they still think he’s a scammer, but take the freaking course? Why? It’s just contradictory. Not only that, how can you give a credible opinion about a company / course / person if you didn’t even buy it direct from the real source? You’re missing the lifetime support you get with the course and other additional content. It’s laughable.

What I would suggest to people is why don’t you ask some of Nirav’s REAL genuine students for their opinion of NV and his course on social media? NV regularly makes a point of sharing his students’ trades and progress on his instagram stories. Ask them and see what the general consensus is? Ask as much as it takes. Don’t just take it from me or someone else on this forum who bought the course from a flippin’ pirate website. Or even worse yet, from someone who hasn’t even bought the course!
Well... yes, it would be interesting to have someone that answer that kind of questions. Except that when you ask legitimate questions you get banned on instagram.
 
I have purchased the course. I'm about 10 hours in and find value so far.
I have been primarily quant based in my trading. As a trader I want to be able to look at the markets from different perspectives.
I'm going into this with years of experience looking for an edge not a get rich quick scheme.
You got to put in the time!
I estimate I won't be trading live with this info for 6 months to a year.
 
Well... yes, it would be interesting to have someone that answer that kind of questions. Except that when you ask legitimate questions you get banned on instagram.
I don’t think any of Nirav’s students will block you for asking some legitimate questions.. I think most would be pretty happy to help. That’s what I did before i took the course. Just looked for what traders had took the course and asked for their pro’s and con’s. Probably the most realistic / transparent way of doing it.

I believe he blocked that Constantino guy because he’s sick of being asked the same question by haters, and did some research on Constantino and realised he was a scammer / troll himself. Only took me 5 mins to find out all that info about him so i wouldnt be surprised if NV did the same

I haven't got a clue who Constantino is, Neerav blocked me however. It is a lost battle with you if you already took the course but there is the thing:
I would not trust anyone that's hiding behind his initials to clean my house, let alone paying him/her to "educate" me.
His Linkedin profile is fishy to say the least, has got at least a couple of references from professional marketeers.
At this point it would not surprise me if the comments on instagram, YouTube and the reviews on trustpilot were all paid for.
Everyone that takes his "course" seems to have found the holy grail, not even a bad word.
The answer is simple, they are carefully deleted and the person banned.
For anyone wanting to take the course, by all means take it. But do your research before and ask questions. If you ask the proper ones, you will most likely be ignored or banned and this will save you a couple of thousand pounds at least.
I don't have Facebook but his campaign on YouTube must have costed Neerav a little fortune. If you do not want to fund his next campaign, do yourself a favour and do your research. That's all

Constantino is the scammer who started this whole forum and is the only reason we are both here having this conversation in the first place

Yeah boss I took the course months ago. I wouldn’t call any trading approach the holy grail, but I’ll tell you what it’s a breath of fresh air compared to everything else out there and I’m satisfied with my purchase, and seeing much better results in my trading. There is no battle to be fought :) Very happy with my investment!

Thing is though, I gave him a review on trust pilot and it’s the only review Ive ever given and I’m not fake or a bot. I’ve just never used trust pilot.. to be honest im very lazy in the sense that i dont give reviews, i just felt like this course and Nirav deserved one because for the first time in 3 years i felt like i hadnt wasted money on a trading course after being VERY close to drawing a line and giving up. For that fact and a lot more, it was worth giving a review. I don’t believe Nirav has to buy fake reviews, I just think that’s another thing people want to talk about and scrutinise.

Totally get it though, I was sceptical before I bought the course and did my own research - mainly because I’d done very little before buying other courses. It genuinely was going to be the last education I bought because I was sick to death of wasting time and money, and thankfully it was a good decision. Some people are just more sceptical than others though I guess.

Anyway, last comment from me just wanted to share my experience and try point people in the right direction by perhaps asking Nirav’s real students before making a decision, maybe email G7FX and collect all the data you need. Good luck in whatever you all decide to do :)
 
I have a friend who works in HR for Barclays, while she wouldn't give me details on when he worked there and what his role was, she said the work history screenshot I sent her did not correlate in any way with what's on the records - she wouldn't give me any details but laughed when she thought I was thinking of giving him money for trading training (I'm not anymore obviously). Combine that with the obvious attempt to mislead by manipulating his myfxbook and then constantly using that as proof he is different to all the other trading trainers who aren't profitable, and paid reviews, I think it's safe to say he is NOT one of the good guys. I'm pretty convinced at this point that online trading courses are overwhelmingly run by chancers and narcissists with delusions of grandeur.
If you're a relative newbie like me who is trying to learn without being scammed I think there are some excellent books out there with great content. Caveat Emptor and all that.
Good luck everyone.

Yeah and I just spoke to Jeff Bezos

He said my Amazon parcel is late and he’s sorry for the delay

Bit of a false equivalence but OK; Occam's Razor would suggest that's more plausible than Neerav's excuses for uploading a different account to myfx every month.

Seriously, if you want contacts at loads of major corporations do a psychology degree at a major university and marry a girl who is on your course - most of the friends on our Xmas card list are HR managers at large companies or university research fellows, it's bizarre and probably an indictment of the usefulness of a psychology degree!
 
Well... I am a customer of G7FX who paid a huge $1075 and I believed the hype around NV and how he was a trading legend but I decided to do my own research on his background.

Basically what i discovered is that none of the material or tools he uses and teaches are his. All of the work belongs to other people and it looks like he's making dollar off using other people's work and claiming ownership of it. Disappointing.

Now I'm not gonna say he is a cheap thieving scam artist who is trying to take advantage of inexperienced traders by pretending he has 16 years institutional trading experience.

Ima just lay out the facts as I discovered them and let all y'all can make your own minds up.

1) He said he worked 16 years Institutional Sell Side & Proprietary trading experience working with Hedge Funds, Central Banks & Private Clients, with 6 years at Barclays. You can actually look his history up here:

https://register.fca.org.uk/s/individual?id=003b000000KT7c7AAD

I looked those positions up, 3 years at Barclays and nothing else, and neither of those jobs look like Trader Jobs, they are "Client Advisor" jobs. See here:





Then, the "Institutional Trading" history trail goes a bit cold. He says in his instagram ads that after Barclays he traded at a top Prop Firm. There is no mention of who that top prop firm is anywhere. The only Prop firm on any of his track records is G7Capital - a firm he started (and presumably self-funded?).

Well G7 Cap didnt do great: https://i.imgur.com/qhxfOYI.png

But hey I could be wrong.

2) Then he shows up on Forex factory in 2013 until 2014/15 telling the world he is an institutional trader and knows what the big boys do. https://i.imgur.com/YZuRweS.jpg

So here he admits he has been going solo since 2008 but only managed to start trading consistently and generating income form around 2010. He also says he trades EXCLUSIVELY FX and they are the best markets. so from 2008- 2020 he has traded by himself??

If that is the case, then his 16 years of institutional trade experience must have began in 1992 and finished in 2008... So I guess he was a child prodigy?
On Forex Factory he trades all sorts of FX parings (https://i.imgur.com/1xqCQZD.jpg), unlike what he says today, which is only ever trade 1 FX pair an CL /ES.

His trading Style?: Elliot Wave : smh https://i.imgur.com/GJkag5I.jpg

Then around 2014/15 he disappears from Forex Factory until 2019/20 when he re-appears on instagram as this institutional legend. Trading OrderFlow, Volume Analyisis, the DOM and auction market theory.

Very fancy indeed! Since we can assume from Forex Factory at this point that his experience is not based on those concepts, one could summize that at MOST he has about 4-5 years experience in orderflow trading. But that would be speculation... let's move on to some more evidence and see what actual facts we can uncover.


First Component: the DOM - depth of market.

NV teaches how the dom works and shares his "CUSTOM MADE DOM LADDER" that he says he spent $$$$ on and is sharing it with us for free (why thanks!).

Watching this, I was very surprised to see that the DOM and NV's explanation of of the market mechanism is identical to how John Grady teaches it in his 2016 course "NO BS DAY TRADING".

John Grady even used the hypothetical "APPLES MARKET" to help students understand it in laymens terms, but NV seems to have changes it to "Banana Markets" just to freshen things up.




John Grady's Custom DOM vs Nv's 'Custom DOM':

There's more.

VOLUME: HE talks about he has developed over many years these custom volume charts based around developing value. Well I was very surprised to find that his "personally developed sierra custom volume chart" has the same identical source code as the charts that were developed by the guys at the private banker forum. In fact it IS the same chart that User @WWWINGMAN from leprivatebanker.com created and shared to the students. I looked up the source code in sierra chart and it is the same.

Here are the Private banker chart templates: https://leprivatebanker.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/charttmp02.png

VWAPS:

Interesting that the Private Banker's 2 key markets that they trade are ES And CL - Co-incidence?

So I thought I would sign up to the private banker forum and see if there was any similarity at all between what they teach and the G7FX program, because surely he wouldnt steal someone else's work... would he?

things such as "cumulative delta" and "value migration", "Line in the sand", "composites" - all in the private bankers 2013 program.

Footprint Tool:

NV said it was custom made and he spent $$$$ to make it. It is actually the footprint from Order Flow Analytics:

Any current students should ask NV to provide the HTF VWAP training he originally removed so that they have the full material rather than the watered down version he is selling.

But wait! There's more:

Claim: He's the only 100% Fully Audited Trader Social Media. https://imgur.com/A2tGIDO

Let's do our own audit of his Myfx book shall we?

on the 8th April 2020 he took a "Live Trade" as part of the G7FX course. Of course he his account details, however when he hovered his mouse over the TP line we got a flash of his position size. That's all we need:

https://i.imgur.com/oeVRjoy.jpg

12.8 Pips Profit £4.77 GBP.

Here is the link to his myfx book for April: https://www.myfxbook.com/members/VerifiedTrading/g7fx/5471709

Go to page 7, 8th April and you will find his GBPJPY long trade 12.8 pips

I'm sure he will remove this link so I have taken the liberty of taking some screenshots:

Here is his Myfxbook for April: https://i.imgur.com/Mg6lxsx.jpg

Then Page 7, 8th April: https://i.imgur.com/iiJ8FZ3.jpg

I have located the same trade and it shows a profit of 0.4%.

So, lets do some simple math:

Account Size = £4.77 / 0.004 = £1,192.50

So this 100% fully auditied trader is selling his trading course and mentorship based on the stats of a £1k account on myfxbook.

lol

Finally, this isn't the first time he has been trying to run a trading scheme:

Funny hey? : https://i.imgur.com/4kR6usp.png

Now I'm not jumping to any conclusions here. I'll just leave the facts out here and you guys can all come to your own conclusions.

Personally, as a customer, I am disappointed. I want my money back and I think NV owes the whole community and explanation and apology and a mass refund to everyone, and if you can't get a refund file a chargeback with your bank while you still can.

Peace.

Man, you are a true believer! Unless you are not Neerav himself, he must be proud of you.
