Although they have good information to learn from, there are many ways that are better.. All they do is sell you software that you must keep buying over and over again. It's not a school it's a more like you pay them extremely high prices to trade when it can be done elsewhere for a one time purchase. The support is a joke. I have wasted $13000 trying to trade with them with zero returns. Beware read more

These guys have a scam return policy. I was told I would be refunded all my money that I paid for their course. And instead they refunded me 10 percent of what they owed me and even the 10 percent was months later. Save your money and stay away from these guys they still owe me a lot. read more

BAD COMPANY - AVOID AT ALL COSTS. I signed up in March 2025 and quickly realized that their system was too much for me. I qualified for the refund and started that process within their refund period. Now it's November 7th and all they have sent me is $500. I am going to use that payment as proof that they acknowledge my refund claims when I sue them in Small Claims Court next week. read more

I watched many webinars and signed up for the free 'online' webinar that was supposed to show actual real-time trading. The salesperson often called to say that the 'free' online real-time trading webinar is only for paid customers. As an experienced trader with more than 60 years of experience, I can state that retrospective webinars that only show past examples are just bull----. Only real-time, like KwipPop, which I am not a current user, is the real deal. They (KwipPop) show actual trades as they happen. There are others as well. Save your money. This smacks of bait and switch. read more

It's changed there's been a lot of different things being changed on the website like online learning courses. I don't like the new look at all. They changed the whole thing around. But anyway I got a good deal during covid for real cheap, hint if you are interested in taking any courses good luck cause there not giving any big discounts so those days are over. read more

I have spent roughly $10K purchasing this company's UTP package, among other trading indicators and classes they sell. My initial purchase was roughly 11 years or so ago, and suddenly, I am no longer able to login, use any of the stuff I purchased, nor is there any record on my dashboard of me ever having made a purchase with this company. I have scheduled phone calls with them, and they fail to call even though its in both our google calendars. SAVE YOUR MONEY!!! read more

Avoid Avoid Avoid. Customer service is non responsive. Since "The Chiefs' passing the company has gotten worse and worse. I have been waiting for a year for a promised distribution. I have gone so far as to file a BBB complaint which was unanswered by MTI. Find another way into the Forex market. Tradesmart is a good alternative read more

I have been a customer for about 12 years. I have had my issues w/ them but have been always to work thru it w/ my other rep Matt, who was awesome. They changed the form and I had this Michael Montoya reach out to me. He missed one appointment, blamed me. I made another appointment, he called me earlier than our appointment than missed the zoom again. I called him and he was rude & blamed me again. He said he wants a paying customer, I AM A PAYING CUSTOMER. I would think twice of dealing w/ this cluster. read more

Yikes! I'm 65+ years old so learning something complicated like FOREX trading at my age wo be difficult at best BUT MTI told me I could learn trading no problem. Spent $4000 for training and started plowing through the online training. Manual trading was WAY over my head!!! I had sales calls all the time to buy robi-trading algorithms to do the heavy lifting for me and take way less time in front of a computer. I had purchased numerous systems BEFORE I realized that the brokers that MTI allowed to be traded with at that time would not or could not allow trading with the use of self directed IRA funds! What a kick in the face considering my SDIRA is the ONLY source of funds I have available for trading!! Here I am between a rock and a hard place and I keep getting sales calls trying to sell me more algorithms...WT...??!?!? Then my salespers tells me he knows of nobody who trades with self direcred IRAs!! Why isn't that something that is asked a customer BEFORE they invest $10000++ in an oppo to make money to help their handicap children. I'd call that preyi on senior citizens and the underprivileged! Would I do that to them. Not for anything in the world. Shows EXACTLY how seriously jacked up this world has really gotten. To boot here is the REAL kicker!!!! aWhen I went out of my way to contact management to discuss my situation, I couldn't get a call back. Evil, heartless, cold, cruel, dishones, etc. if you ask me. aEvery day of my life since then has been negatively affected and will ALWAYS affect my 2 handicapped kids. Shame on MTI (Market Traders Institute) and their seeming complete lack of conscience pertaining to this matter. Buyr(s) BEWARE!! Have proof that I am a customer so don't flag and remove this post before verifying the validity of ALL information in this post!!! read more

This is a very good value for learning about forex, as well as help in the complicated indicators, software, mt4, etc. Automating forex is very tricky. I could not do it alone! read more

All their products are indicators you get for free through your broker. They just tweak them a bit and sell them as their own. A little research goes a long way. read more

Avoid these snake oil salesmen. MTI is a scam and the products are substantially overpriced. Their daily webinars are there to sell thousands of dollars of additional programs. The 60 day no questions asked money-back guarantee statement is a lie. I have a certificate of completion proving I completed 100% of the requirements within the 60 day window. I also have an email and cancellation confirmation from one of the customer service agents, again within the 60 day guarantee window. I called the company and was assured on multiple occasions to confirm that the requirements were met. Then I get an email 4 days after the guarantee period had elapsed informing me that I could cancel, but will not receive a refund. read more

Beware if this company. On line they say you can sample their product for $1. They warn you that you that they will automatically charge your credit card $59 UNLESS you go to your account and cancel. What they don't tell you is that you will not be able to get into your account at all, let alone to cancel. Cha-Ching for Market Traders! read more

Thank you for the reviews! I attended on of their webinars last in which the presenter, almost near the end of the session, stated the 1st 10 individuals to share their phone number will get free access to the platform. I shared mine at the very onset of the session, so I knew I would be in this group. I did not call them to finance through paypal, monthly play plan, pay upfront, or $500 off discount as my intent was the free access to test out the services before committing. The presentation was not delivered in a manner to get me 100% on board with just that (as for every keypoint on PIPS was 2 plugs at promotions). Yes, 28 years we got it. Nonetheless, I received a call from a sales agent. When I inquired as to the free access she got belligerent and asked why would they do that...? Well other than it was "said" in the presentation AND is on their website... "find out how to get FREE access to our live trading rooms and other special bonuses!".. I wonder. I refused to argue with her, told her this alone was a red flag and disconnected the call. I read these reviews the day after. Thank goodness to the Universe that I invested nothing with this organization. read more

horrible company - beware!!! if you sign up you cannot get a refund. do not be fooled by their money back guarantee - you will not get your money back read more

I'm a customer and the service is deplorable.. I needed to cancel and buyer beware if you need to cancel good luck. Suddenly I had to have a medical procedure and I have a high deductible. I had to give up something so it was my MTI membership. I called cust svc and spoke to a retention rep Vanessa. She was so uncaring and said I had to complete hours of tutorials and classes/quizes.. She even wanted medical records as proof.. How dare she! Like I want MTI having my medical records.. I spoke to a manager Benny de Jesus in Cust Svc.. He made several promises but never came through. He was useless.. It's taken hours on the phone which rolled into days and still I didn't get the promises made to me by Benny.. I played hours of tutorials. They want to hold onto your money as long as they can.. Now I'm paying interest on $4k and I'm not able to concentrate on trading in the forex market.. Buyer Beware...the contract you sign is overwhelmingly demanding and its a constant battle with them.. When your not feeling well who wants to deal with a business like that UPDATE.. I just got the email confirmation I was hoping for about my 100% refund.. I just hate having to fight for something I felt I deserved.. One cust svc rep said credit may not post for 4-6 weeks.. What! This email, from the same Vanessa, said it will be a couple of days.. I forgot to mention the Forex product is excellent and well worth it for people who can afford it and have a stable life.. and can devote the time and attention.. The training and classes and support are outstanding.. I recommend their product. They need to work on their service quality and that difficult contract.. And stop using the mute button when customer is talking.. It's disrespectful.. Their phn staff uses the mute constantly when your talking..That dead air.. you think your call dropped or something.. Best wishes, Melissa read more

I am an internet marketer here, I love this company. It is my goal to introduce Forex Trading to the world and help them become successful Forex traders. I handle search marketing advertising and help to develop our informative community service websites, like forexstrategies.com and forextips.com. This is a great company to work for! read more

Very Deceptive. My biggest complaint is that they grossly over simplify what is involved with trading. Just follow their system and you can't help but make money. If you are new to trading stay away. Their charts and software has constant glitches. You will be barraged with constant upselling. The live seminars and strategy sessions only make it more confusing and are just another sales pitch. The money back guarantee is worthless, they will find some excuse not to give it to you. If you are interested in trading look somewhere else. read more

Their charts smarttrader software has constant glitches, I once compared my broker charts and there was a big difference on price! You will be barraged with constant upselling. The live seminars and strategy sessions are just another sales pitch. You Pay to get pitches! The money back guarantee is worthless, they will find some excuse not to give it to you. If you are interested in trading look somewhere else. read more

I took a course from these guys 4 months ago. I have mixed opinions. The first course was excellent, enough I could get my feet wet. I made some trades, did not lose much, but have been unable to get my successes to raise my principle above my opening balance. The mentoring is difficult to deal with. I have a one-on-one mentor, who is moderately knowledgeable. He is little better than a pep talk. Then there is analyst-on-demand with much more capable mentoring. However, this is in the format of a live on-line classroom. The problem with it is you really can't ask everything you want. You can ask, and the analyst will TRY to get to your question. But there may be too many in the classroom, or your question may be off the subject of what is being discussed. What I do like about it, however, is this analyst on demand is available almost all the time from midnight Monday morning till noon on Friday. I find it best to login and do other stuff till the analyst arrives. There is a schedule, but it seems to bear little resemblance to the schedule kept. They come on when they feel like it, and take breaks when they feel like it. The schedule gives subjects to be discussed, but again, this is totally arbitrary. I have now taken 3 courses. The first was excellent. The second (very expensive) was for the birds and a total waste. The 3rd was good, but I seem to be having a hard time getting my questions worked out. I am less than satisfied with the one-on-one offer. I really really need some private attention to get some basic concepts fully understood and am having trouble getting it. I still have high hopes for the program tho. My BIGGEST complaint is the fact that I get a lot of promises on Friday that someone will get to me answers, access, and course materials before the day ends so i can study over the weekend. When they don't, it is after closing time so there is no one to call and I am then left with my weekend plans blown to hell. The other problem is my login information disappears from their system periodically. I had the scary experience tonight of entering a trade, then my charting software fails. I log back in, only to find it no longer knows who I am. It is middle of the night so there is nobody I can call. The trade I made did not seem to be doing as expected. Since I couldn't see the charts, the only thing I could do is to close the trade, loosing money. I still believe that currency pair will be in my direction come morning, but I couldn't afford to fly blind. read more

DISHONEST!! When they give you the sales pitch, they repeat ad nauseam about the "no risk guarantee" to get you to sign a contract. I have dealt with this company in good faith... when I tried to get a refund, the customer support agent was cheerful and said they would refund my money in 5-6 weeks. The agent totally LIED to me!! After they told me they would refund my money, they refuse! They hoped I would forget about it after 5-6 weeks and now they point to some obscure contract provision that I still can't find. Why didn't they say that when they offered a refund??? Then they are rude and condescending. Beware before doing business with MTI. read more

i signed up for their courses and was left blowing in the wind, took days to get a simple question answered, i was talked to like i was just another number, all their training online always turned into another sales pitch. when i told them to turn off their service after the 60 day, no questions asked, 100% refund, they cut off the service then told me i did not complete enough and would get no refund. oh yeah almost forgot, their system has a bug in it, as per the tech people, i could not trade until after 2 to 3 hours with tech to get the platform to work right again read more

Been a student for over 5 years. I recommend them to everyone I know. They have truely change my financial life.

Market Traders institute may do a good job teaching trading, I am not making any comment about that. BUT, when you look at the GUARANTEED 60 DAY MONEY BACK GUARANTEE which gets many people to sign up for a course watch out for your money. And note this, the courses cost thousands of dollars. The day you ask for a refund YOU RECEIVE AN EMAIL TELLING YOU THAT IT MAY TAKE BETWEEN 4-6 WEEKS TO GET YOUR REFUND. It took me a week just to get the person, Cynthia Madera, who handles refunds to answer calls and emails. What follows is a lot of ignoring phone calls, ignoring emails asking for a refund update. When you call and ask for billing you get a voice mail. They lie to you about the refund time, I was told 7-10 days, I am at 3 weeks waiting for the refund. The Better Business Bureau website states that, "In practice, the refund is difficult to obtain based on the steps the company requires." And those are the facts. There are a lot of web comments stating that Market Traders Institute ignores customers when they ask for the refund. Jared Martinez, the founder and Jacob Martinez, the CEO, run the company by ignoring refund requests, slow-walking requests and delaying. I am owed $3,497.50 and they do not respond to multiple email and phone refund requests. They are dishonest, lack professionalism and are out to cheat people who want a refund. If you sign the contract with the guaranteed 60 day money back guarantee it does not say when you will get your money back. read more
