GBMost complete training anywhere! I've had success with many other trading companies, but this is by far the most complete training system you will EVER find. This system has the keys that are missing elsewhere. It is important to note is these reviews are written by actual users, and not cheaply purchased to attract more business. I am posting under my actual login name (TomT) and you can verify this when you login to the Java pit. A big thanks to Stefanie, Matt, Jay, Paul, Dave, Jane, Ricki, Donda, Apeman, Verminator, LauraG, Kimbur and anyone else on the staff I may be forgetting!

GBThe Stock Wisperer I have been through several trading training courses and trading websites. Some have been better than others. The scariest thing for me has been trying to figure out which ones are there just to take my money or which ones actually teach usable information. None of the programs have been like a school teaching A-Z of trading actually producing graduates that are legitimate traders. Stefanie is building that. Stefanie Kamerman is the real deal! She actually cares how her students do and works harder than anyone I have ever met.

GBOne year in and I can tell you to skip this unless you want to lose a lot of money. I waited a year to write this review because I knew I needed time to see if the stuff taught actually works. Many students eagerly left positive reviews right after the Bootcamp because yes it is well run and Stefanie is nice and patient and makes you feel like she's giving you some secret sauce to trading that no one else is privy to so you will probably leave feeling really good and confident that you can do this... But fast forward a year later and a bunch of us have now left the Java Pit because we were losing so much money. After talking to seasoned traders they tell me they do not trade around the dark pool because it's too iffy. You have no idea what was the positioning. One trader who has been doing it for a decade straight up warned me that my trading room "sucks" after I told him about the trades we were putting on under Stefanie's recommendation/guidance. For eg I would say we shorted AAPL because of XYZ (always some dark pool related rationale) and he will say "I cannot believe your room did that when ABC is happening (some logical rational, non dark pool related reason). And he would be right. I definitely regret going with this program and wish I had joined a different room instead. Stef calls it old fashioned trading in a high tech world, but I think the reality is she hasn't kept up with the times. Her methods MAY have worked decades ago when she started but not so anymore. It's way too simplistic and you won't be swimming with the sharks like she says - you will get eaten alive by them. Save yourself the money and frustration and look elsewhere for your trading education. I think the teacher is very nice but I'm not looking for nice in a trading education program. I'm looking to make money, and consistently. Sad to say that was not what I found here.

GBVery effective class The instructors made sure that everyone had multiple opportunities to ask any questions, no matter how basic. They stuck to the agenda and did not give preference to class members who had several years of experience, which really helped me. The handouts are great. I felt like the instructors genuinely wanted to make sure that we were all successful. My confidence in trading options has soared. I highly recommend the Options Boot Camp.

GBExcellent programs Excellent programs, very comprehensive demonstrates specifics strategies, techniques and rules for successful trading. Gives insight to understand where the market is or may be headed. The Java Pit is the best trading room I have encountered. Honest, caring and insightful. All in the room help each other in various ways. Nice family to trade with.
