WB Trading Education review - Mechanical trading strategies Pros, Cons, and Client Ratings.

Mechanical Trading?

Yes it is, and it’s really easy to follow.

Until I found William’s strategies, I had tried 3 or 4 different forex courses, EA’s and robots, and since 2011 when I first started trading, I’ve easily spent £8k on content and probably blown £12k in funds.

I was very sceptical about WB Trading and even during the introduction call I still wasn’t very sure, and had promised myself that if I take the course and I had no success, then I was going to give up Forex trading altogether, enough would have been enough.

So I started with William’s “session momentum strategy” only, as I really couldn’t afford all 4 programmes. Once I completed the course content I made myself a spreadsheet where I could input data from the charts, and the formula in the spreadsheet would calculate my entry and exit points, all of which is taught in the course. I started with various RR ratios, and within days I could really see some benefits, and had started to make some profit on my very small trading account.

Then there was a special offer to get all 4 programmes for a limited time deal. So I did. I have had some good results on the “Price reversion strategy” and the “Bias Bar strategy” but not enough time has passed for me to realise the D1 swing strategy, which is a long term strategy.

After 4-5 weeks I was up about 12% on my account. But my account is very small so I decided to look for a prop fund. I decided the 5% ers was the one for me. www.the5ers.com

So I started their “high stakes” trader funding programme on 4-Sep. The first stage is to make 8% profit, second stage is 5% profit, and then I get to trade a live account. Well only 3 weeks later, on Friday 22 September, I hit that first stage 8% with a 57% win rate. It only cost me 39USD. The 5ers has a more generous loss threshold than ftmo.com and that’s what attracted me to it. That said, as I gain more confidence and maybe realise that only 6, 7 % drawdown is needed, I may open more funded trading accounts and start using trade copiers, who knows, I’ll see how things go.

To end, I just wanted to say that if you enroll, and follow the rules, forget about any other training you’ve had, then I’m sure you can start making a profit too. My best instruments have been GER30 (aka GER40, DAX40) and GBPUSD (aka “Cable”)

PS: I found that using a spreadsheet makes it even less emotional, and more mechanical. I can give you the spreadsheet I made, if you enrol and if you want it.

The course provided by Will is nothing but excellence. This man has allowed me to become a very profitable trader without having to worry about watching a screen all day long. At first it was a struggle but nothing great in this life comes easy. After putting in endless time going through the course I have become a trusted funded trader and would not have been able to do it without the help of this course. I owe Will and his team a huge thank you and would recommend the platinum course to anybody keen on wanting to start trading. The strategies must be followed exactly as stated in the course and you’ll see the results. Highly recommend and I am clueless as to how it has received any negative feedback at all. If you stick to his course and follow rules correctly you too will see great results !

I rarely leave reviews but this one I had to do to deter others from falling into the same trap I've now found myself in.
Moreover, I believe it is everyone's responsibility and duty to call out bad actors where they exist.
I came across Wbtrading as a flashing advert on YouTube whilst researching trading strategies that would allow me to trade a mechanical rule based system. I signed up for a call and had a few video calls with someone called Roy who seemed like decent fellow and we talked about a lot of things besides trading which seem to resonate well with me. I made a payment of £4000 for the platinum membership package, which he suggested would work out better than installments.we talked about faith, about charity work and said I could call at anytime if I had any concerns etc.. This was in hindsight a ruse. I believe once you register interest in a call, someone from the company look through your social media profile and tailor their conversation with you in that direction in order to gain your confidence.
Long story short, I paid for the course in April and painstakingly went through the whole syllabus at least twice and was shocked at what was being package as set and forget system. For one, I had told the vendors rep on my calls that my work schedule wouldn't allow 8am trade's. There were 2 short term strategies which other have alluded to here already and 2 long-term strategies.
These short term strategies freely available on YouTube and the longterm strategies are a moving average crossover and an engulfing candle patterns, which neither justifies there ridiculous amount charged nor the claim made of proprietary systems. I back-tested the long-term strategies and compared to the results shared by WBTRADING and they were inconsistent and more than that, not profitable. I reached out to Paul and William about my concerns and asked for a refund because I believe they lied about the results of the backtest but as I write haven't received any explanation for the discrepant result even though I included evidence to support this assertion. I was told to refer to the terms and agreements and show that using a strategy for 2 months was unprofitable. If the backtests are wrong and falsified, what confidence is there in real-time trading these freely available strategies anyway? I was also told that refund policy is to prevent people from taking these "proprietary" strategies, using them and asking for a refund, but these are freely available online and I really do not want them because they don't work.
I am seeking legal redress because it is ethically and morally wrong for WBTRADING to do this to hardworking people.
So my advice is that you steer clear of this company.
NB.. I have proof of my assertions.
Date of experience: 26 April 2023

The course content is amazing. I’ve been through the three of the four strategies and the materials are really top notch. I agree that going through them twice is the way to go.

I also purchased the bots and after some SIM trading I’m now live and they are performing well.

I hit some roadblocks with platforms and brokers to work with here in the US but I’m navigating through it.

Paul, Tom, Azri and Dima have been a huge help and have provided great support. Far and away the best support I’ve received with any trading program. They truly care about your success.

Thanks for a great program and I see the value and how it will bring the best to my trading.

Working with the WB team has been a fantastic experience so far. The interview process was thorough and genuine and the coaches/support staff have been an absolute pleasure to work with so far. The course content itself is laid out very well with plenty of detail to cover everything from the basics all the way to the historical data, but still clear and concise so that it is easy to understand and digest. I’m having a wonderful time working with the WB team and trading the strategies that they teach. Very glad I made the decision to join so far and looking forward to the future.
