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.

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.

GBI just finished the one week… I just finished the one week Intermediate / Advanced Options Boot Camp with Andrew and what a great learning experience. I have followed Andrew's trading of Options when ever he has been in the Java Pit and he really knows his stuff. Andrew has a wide knowledge of how Option Spreads work and it is made very clear watching him assess different market scenarios and watching him put on trades and take them off. I would highly recommend to anyone wanting to take their trading to the next level using option spreads to take this class the next time it is offered. I can't wait to apply some of the strategies I just learned. I am proud to give this class a 5 star review.

CAPoor Customer Service I recently signed up for the interactive app and had difficulties. The customer service with Mathew isn't worth the membership. He has excuses and seems put out if you are trying to resolve something. I was advised my Mathew that I would have received an email. No email. He didn't check the history. Potential customers need to be aware that if you have difficulties, you will hit a resistance wall. So now Mathew responds and tries to blame me rather than rectifying his error. No wonder Stephanie is losing customers.

GBGreat class Great class. Learned an overall process and how to plan trades for day trading, overnight swing trading or longer term swing trading. After presenting and reviewing the process we walked through that process over the two weeks each day, planning the trades, which ones to get into, how to enter, how to exit, where to put stops. We also learned how to apply insights from other sources readily available to enhance our entry points and exits. In addition you received hands on coaching along the way as we entered and exited trades. A must for anyone that is serious about igniting your trading skills and taking it to a whole new level.
