Learn to Trade The Market Course Review

Course Score: 6.25 out of 10

This course currently ranks #4 based on all the courses we’ve reviewed.

Course Summary

Learn To Trade the Market is run by Nial Fuller, and the paid course consists of four parts. The first part is all about the basics of forex trading. In this part, Nial explains almost all the necessary aspects pertaining to trading. This section is good for absolute beginners, but it’s also worth mentioning that a lot of this information is very similar to his free beginners course.

The next three parts are mainly focused on trading strategies that are based on common price action patterns. There wasn’t much in-depth information, but still useful for beginners.

In the latter parts of the course, Nial discusses various price action methods, trading plans, and pin bar reversal setups in detail with the help of diagrams, illustrations and charts. The paid members get access to a trade setups forum, along with Nial’s daily market commentary section.

Mentor/Coach Participation

Nial Fuller, posts once a day in the daily commentary section of the forum, sharing his fundamental and technical analysis on various assets, and some trade ideas. We have to note some of these are from the ‘coach’ Larry K, so it’s hard to tell which information is from him and which is from Nial.

As to the rest of the forum and lessons, Nial is not very active, but he will share a live trade once a month or so. He also infrequently posts new information or commentary for members.

How Recent Are The Lessons?

Nial’s forex course is about 2-3 years old; though the daily commentary sections are being updated regularly. The PDF course lessons (the main lessons) are dated from 2012.

We do feel there are some inconsistencies from what he advertises on his course sales page/website, to what is actually in the course. They are:

1. Daily Trade Setups Newsletter – he advertises commentary on at least 5 markets, but lately there has been less, sometimes only 3.
2. Weekly Trade Setups Newsletter – he advertises commentary on at least 7 instruments, but often times there are less than 5.
3. Under his Trading Tutorials, Videos & Articles section on his website for the course page, he states, “You can expect regular additions to this members education library, as well as periodic updates to course materials’

Quality & Value Of The Paid Content?

The paid forex course and other parts of the forum have higher value as compared to the free educational content available on the site. The articles explain each topic with the help of solid graphical illustrations and charts.

Quizzes

We could not find any quizzes to test member knowledge on the site.
