This guys are realy funny. I have suscribed their 7 days free demo service, and after two days figure out theri RF1010 setup. They delete me :) Software for dummies. They ave grate package but engine is preatty much easy to break trough and make it by ownself in any serious trading platfom. Btw they induce people to trade with broker with huge spread. Price is to much for this kind of service but there are always some people who dont wanna think and just wanna pay. They have exelent tutorials and recorded lesons as well as very nice explanation about a lot of things about FX tradeing. Great place for newbees which dont know anything about FX, charts, indicators etc.

Hi, I was looking for some people to learn to trade with. I worked with these guys for a couple months, and the introduction was great. I'm not a MLM person and never really took to that. And I didn't sign up for any robots, but I can understand why people are pissed who got ripped off. What I learned with the was great. I was at ground zero, though admittedly still am. The people who ran th emeetings were very nice, struggling with the MLM because they seemed truely interested in helping others succeed.

SO, I have nothing bad to say about them except I wish the meetings were still going on. I LOVED their charts allthough they were pretty expensive (I was paying $40.00/mo) I just haven't seen anything remotely comparable in the "free" stuff everyone keeps saying is out there.

OK here goes.....my friend just sent a review because I did not want to at first! BUT WAIT now that I read ALL of this crap I HAVE to put in my two cents worth! Ruth Mayne was THE very first person I ever recruited into any program Online! I spoke with her and understood her reasoning for not upgrading in DHSC!
BUT after that she constantly solicited me into opportuities that FAILED miserably. I joined Seversal spent thousands of hours recruiting AND Sponsoring them, something Ruth does not do. She is a RECRUITER like have you ever seen a miloitary recruiter CRY because one of his recruits was killed in action? Same thing here, she could care less about aqnyone until your handing her money! I heard her plan B story about her daughters cancer and her other daughter who fell off the swing and hurt herself.........and I do not want to sound shallow here because life is precious........BUT I heard it so many times and who knows?? Could all be a lie for all I know? I was a founder in FXTrainer also.
Spent thousands on an education I could have gotten FREE! Spent money on tarding rooms I never used because I was told I needed $2,000 to trade with........ And then I move to Seattle and she could NOT take or make the time to meet with me! I even went across the Puget sound for five days and was half an hour from her home and she could not make the time to meet up with me. come on now I FLEW from Rochester NY to Seattle and went to an FXT meeting and she Proudly introduced me to everyone in this Opportunity meeting as "Jeff Storrs who flew here all the way from NY to come to this meeting." WHAT A LIE!
I came to Seattle to seal a deal! NOT with her but rather with Kim McKoy who is my Business Partner. SO this led to everyone at this presentation BELIEVING that this was so important that I would fly 3000 miles to a meeting? GET REAL! Another thing is this.....Ruth told Kim and I that she made almost a million dollars TRADING! last year! BS She never traded for beans......She made her money off the residual monthly subcriptions! Listen everyone who reads this is going to think I am nuts BUT I could care less about burning a bridge that did not exist! Another thing is this DO NOT EVER give your Upline so called sponsor your LEAD LIST! SOMEONE Stole people from me so fast it made me sick but I never said jack about it. Now I will.

The only good part of the Trading Post company was the moderator Tim Cameron. I found Tim at FX Patners. He is a great teacher and trader.

apparently, these guys have closed their doors to business... I guess the feedback here was correct. I'm not surprised.

Wow it has all been said already, but I can confirm....SCAM! I invested $5,000+ in registration, OTR's, charts, Lightning Doesn't Strike because someone came up with their own Deal, IBA, and my least favorite of all...the OTA where for an additional $160/month you got to go watch the "Pro" trade demo on the P/J and pay one of the highest pip spreads which the company got a portion of, only to get so frustrated when the good moderators(T,J,E,P,J,W) left the reasonably priced OTR's I finally left. I am grateful for one thing and one thing only from my year+ spent in Trading Post....it opened the door, a door to trade FOREX I never knew was there. I am now with a solid company, using discounted charts in combination with FREE MT4 charts, making profits everyday and even getting a 25% rebate on my pip spread! TPFX is a scam, they ripped me off, but when they (by their actions) slammed the door in my face, God opened another, which I ran to! If I could I would give them a 0.1 star just because they made me aware of the possibility of trading currency for profits. My advice to you if you are reading this and haven't spent a dime on your forex education...DON'T! Yet. Search the internet for free education, buy some cheap used books from Amazon, download a free demo account with free charts and spend a month seeing for yourself what it is all about, decide if you are willing to take a year to learn to trade. After that see if you are still interested and find out where the good coaches from Trading Post went and form a Partnership in FX with them.

I gave trading post a 1 star not because they are a ok company but because they had a couple of good trainers who really wanted traders to be successful, the company itself is a SCAM!!!! I invested 2k initially and was lured with this "Founders" title I would have and after I became a 5 star how all this money would come in to me in a percentage of the profits. The person who had the meeting that I attended made everything sound so easy, "just 10 pips a day and you're a Millionaire in 2 years", needless to say I lost a ton of money. Now there beginner course is pretty descent for a foundation for trading but not worth the money. I have learned more in the Forex Factory forum than I did at Trading post and FF is free! At first you had to pay for one trading room which gave you access to them all then they changed to where you had "Jason's OTA, "Gold Rush", etc. all with different moderators and you had to pay for each (I was paying roughly $180 pmonth). RIDICULOUS! That's when I knew it was over for me. I tried to believe but it became obvious that Zoltan was only after our money. As a matter of fact I found out later that most of the mod's didn't even trade live accounts. What a scam. And I never will forget the "Lightning Strikes " room. I paid somewhere in the area of $250 a month for 3 months for a system that they knew 1 month into it they were never going to roll out. Not only that but the creator of the system (whom I talked to personally) showed me what LS looked like and it was nothing like what the mod's showed us. UNBELIEVABLE. He now has his own training room and from what I hear those guys are doing awesome now! Amazing what proper teaching does for a trader. I know one very successful former moderator who wanted to do a room for free, guess what he was mocked and forced to resign. This company had the potential to be so much more, what a waste due to greed and selfishness by the people who ran it. Zoltan YOU WILL REAP WHAT YOU HAVE SOWN!!!

I've read the reviews and whomever these people are with the positive comments you are either naive or deceived. My friends and I who got involved with FXT are not idiots. We are all respectable, intelligent and successful businessmen who saw a slick presentation, validation and proof of something that supposedly worked. The training was interesting and informative for someone who knew nothing about the FX market. I even spent thousands of my own to go to their annual meeting in Canada to see for myself if these folks were "for real". I spoke with each of the leaders of the company myself face to face on more than one occasion. I paid for and utilized the training and services they offered. I will give them credit for giving me a nominal education/introduction to Forex but it comes down to one thing. Will you do business with dishonest people or not? If someone has screwed you once or twice, will you go back for a third? I gave these folks plenty of chances. I paid $2200 for an AutoX program that fundamentally didn't work. You can say it was bad signals, but I'm a computer (techie) and mine didn't work more than half the time. It didn't make the trades or get you out of them when it was supposed to. When the refund was announced, I sat across a table from Zoltan Vass who promised that he would not keep the money that was due back to the clients (us). He encouraged us not to do like others and seek chargebacks to our credit cards for the purchase. He would make it right. He then told us to fill out a bunch of paperwork and wait 90 days. In those 90 days, he dissolved FXTrainer and started a new company, Trading Post. No FxTrainer, no FxTrainer accounts, no possibility of chargeback from customers. Once he did that, he said he'd pay us back if, and only if, we continued to buy services and only when he had profit and even then at my best calculations it would have taken nearly 10 years to get my money back. After a couple of months, he basically made it even tougher to recoup any losses, sure they then said you could swap out for services, but again, who wants to do business with crooks? That is down right dirty play. He never intended to make good on his promises. He proved that he was the dishonest partner and put Edward Yau in a position of truthful victim like the rest of us. I've seen these people take the folks that worked the hardest at making them rich and turn against them in a heartbeat to avoid having to pay them what they owed them for all their hard work. If you want to learn forex, look online, look at the library you can do it for $0 or very little! Don't ever trust these folks or Zoltan Vass. I certainly wish I hadn't. If somebody wants to start a class action suit, I'd gladly volunteer to participate, somebody needs to seek justice for all those who've been taken.

Sam,come on! you know better than anyone the troubles TPFS is in....The reviews that have been placed on FXT and TPFS are TRUE! every word....This company has hurt people and will continue to do so.....NONE of you're instructors are profitable in live accounts.,...When I left the company the next day after the BIG moderators meeting in Dec of 2006 in Vancouver. the plans were already in the works to get rid of the MLM folks....funny how the "phase out" didn't reach any of the marketers until a couple weeks ago. The Moderators that stayed with the company we're so enthraled with thier "new" titles of Founding Moderators and the pay increase they recieved to 45.00 per hour, (because they we're either going broke trading or only trading demo). they almost broke thier hands reaching for pens to sign the new contract....you remember that afternoon? I do.....Like I said in my earlier post...I have been in the belly of this beast and it is rotten to the core. it's about corperate profit at any cost and that means on the backs of the poor people that swallow the kool aid and pay and pay and pay to be taught systems that fail by Moderators that are either to ignorant to know it or dis-honest enough to trade thier integrity for a paycheck. TP's days are numbered and anyone that willfully pays hard earned money to be taught failed systems I am truely sorry for..........Hey Sam, come on back here and detail for me Z's system for profitable trading.......PLEASE...because in all the time I moderated I continually asked for his step by step....never got it.....never was able to trade it.....never got to review it......in fact, the majority of what is still taught by this bankrupt company is PORTIONS of Rish's and my profitable systems that we developed ON OUR OWN..... wavy tunnel? MINE....fibo grid? sorry Ruth....MINE, not yours.....RSI relationships to extreme....MINE again.....4 hour swing trades.....MINE....do we need to continue?? Like I said, you can only teach PORTIONS of these systems because no one down there knows the complete system or the details that go with them..... go crawl under the rock you came from and/or start looking for a new career...besides, why are you talking for this company? where's Z? So, I hereby challenge Zoltan Vass to come here and detail his system for trading the forex. Lets all backtest what he tells us and decide for ourselves....I'm sure he won't do it....so anyone else that wants to take that challenge I'd like to see...come on here and tell us how Z trades profitably...if you've been there for more than a couple weeks, than it will be easy to debunk me Doug Sereda? Jason G? Jason? Sam? Steve?..if you dare...but be careful...because I know what he was trying to learn and how miserably it failed when I quit.........

2007-04-05 SCAM Thanks Gbon....sorry, I don't know who you are from the initials......I've seen and been in the belly of the beast......I did my best to teach people to trade the forex as I learned it ON MY OWN....TP has never nor will they ever teach a profitable system. They care about MLM and thier cash flow....I am embarrassed to ever have had my name associated with them.

Hi Felix. I used to be with FX-T/TPFX and I'm just curious as to why you didn't post the whole letter sent to you by Sam Araki. I'm sure you have your reasons, but I would be interested to see what else he had to say good/bad about the situation that THEY as a company have gotten themselves into through their, ahem, "questionable" business practices.

The fact thay they haven't been sued yet is, in my opinion, a mix of luck and a slickly designed changeover to another company that included client contracts worded to alleviate TradingPost (the changeover company) of any financial responsibility to their clients that should have carried over from the old company (FX-Trainer).

During the changeover they continued to promise the moon and the stars to their clients in an effort to avoid a mass exodus. Once most clients realized the future was bleak for this company, they soon started to leave and thus the increase of bad publicity including posts on this website. If you noticed, we just had another "wave" of bad reviews show up here. Some of those reviews are by people that had very large businesses formed around the company and only stayed this long as they were obligated to the people they sponsored under them. I commend them for at least trying to make TradingPost a good place, but obviously that didn't happen.

I won't leave a rating since I already rated them a scam and I don't want to skew their "star" rating. It will fall to scam status soon enough.
