Hi my name is Anthony, I have been a passionate self taught trader of Forex for about 3 years when I found the Learn To Trade Team and their concise Smart Charts platform, what an amazing educational and supportive platform and training community. The trainers are clear and very experienced and the courses are complete from teaching the basics,… Read more · 1
to explaining the psychology of trading and teaching proven AI driven software strategies, the best part is you aren't learning alone. Learn To Trade with Smart Charts is a complete trader training package, There is no other trading community I could recommend more or would want to be apart of.
For decades I have wanted to learn to trade. I only have a primary school education and a career in construction and equestrian sport which at 58 has left me tech averse! I took the plunge and purchased the Learn Forex 3 day course. This was the perfect gradient to introduce me to the subject. I had access to a lot of recorded resources to… Read more · 1
acclimatise to the subject before the 3 day intensive course. The guys who delivered it were very mindful of those of us without any experience while engaging the more experienced. Greg Secker has developed a first class education and trading platform in Smart Charts that is far superior to anything else I looked at in the market. After completing the course you can discuss your goals with your mentor and continue your trading journey at the pace you feel comfortable. If this is a path you are considering I can’t think of a better place to start and for me this is just the beginning!

A costly lesson in deceptive practices – I recently had an incredibly disappointing experience with Learn To Trade and I feel compelled to share my experience to warn others. From the outset, the company's aggressive sales tactics were overwhelming, pushing me to part with my hard-earned money. The so-called "live" webinar turned out to be a pre-recorded sales pitch, which enticed the… Read more
attendees with a ticket to a A$10,000 trading account and a half-day training. .The half-day workshop I paid A$147 for turned out to be another extended sales presentation, devoid of meaningful educational content. The promised A$10,000 trading account was conveniently forgotten, replaced by relentless pressure to pay an additional A$8,995 for smartcharts and training, coupled with an ongoing monthly fee of A$149.
I ended up paying a deposit of A$1,000 over the phone with [Name Removed] to secure my spot at the time, as they promised to refund me within my 14-day cooling off period if I chose not to go ahead.
After much deliberation and reading multiple scathing reviews and feeling misled, I attempted to get a refund. I discovered through reviews that the initial A$8,995 charge was just the tip of the iceberg. Learn To Trade allegedly pushes for additional payments ranging from A$20,000 to A$40,000 after completing the basic training - their so called advanced courses if you wanted to become a serious trader. Unfortunately, my multiple attempts to follow up on my refund request with [Name Removed], the Client Service Manager, via email and phone went unanswered, and the promised refund remains elusive. [Name Removed], who initially facilitated the deposit, directed me to email info@learntotrade.com.au for a refund, but my emails remain unanswered. Subsequent calls to [Name Removed] were ignored, leaving me frustrated and betrayed. The lack of responsiveness and transparency from Learn To Trade raises serious concerns about their integrity and commitment to their clients. In conclusion, Learn To Trade appears to prioritise extracting money from people rather than delivering on their promises. I strongly caution others to avoid this company, as my experience aligns with numerous negative reviews, suggesting their primary focus is only on their own financial gain. Learn To Trade, had I the option, I would give you a negative rating – a cautionary tale to save others from falling victim to this apparent scam.
****UPDATE 7 February 2024**** In my pursuit of a resolution, I resorted to writing this online review, and rightly so, it prompted a response from LTT on 24 Jan 2024, stating a 30-day timeline for my refund. However, today (7 Feb 2024), I received an email from Wendy, AdminAU at Learn to Trade, asking me to sign a Deed of Release to finalise my refund request. The conditions outlined in the document are nothing short of SHOCKING. It states things like - Releasing LTT from any and all actions, suits, claims, counterclaims, demands, and costs; - Withdrawing all actions or complaints lodged externally in writing; - Removing or withdrawing all negative online reviews, complaints, and comments; - Keeping all information and communications confidential; - Avoiding further contact or communications with LTT and its representatives; - Fully indemnifying LTT against any cost, expense, claim, action, loss, damage, or injury resulting from a breach of the Deed of Release & Indemnity. I have attached a screenshot of the document to this review.
To discover that my refund is only to be granted upon removing genuine reviews of my Learn to Trade experience is both appalling and indicative of the depths to which this company is willing to stoop. I am left in disbelief and am seriously considering lodging a complaint with Fair Trading. This experience with Learn To Trade is not only regrettable but absolutely disgusting.
Staff and Trainers are very supportive – The main experience with the platform is the continued support from the webinars and staff. They continue to help you with every part of the trading journey. Thank you Smart Charts. Show reply

curiosity and caution. My coaching sessions with Grant Shi have been a standout feature. Grant brings deep expertise and a calm, methodical teaching style that helped demystify complex trading concepts. His ability to tailor advice to my learning pace and goals made the sessions feel genuinely personalised. I appreciated his patience, especially when navigating SmartCharts and refining my risk management approach. The program itself offers a wealth of resources—from structured modules to live trading support—but it’s not without areas for improvement. At times, the pacing felt brisk, and I would have benefited from more real-time trading examples and clearer guidance on adapting strategies to different market conditions. Transparency around risk and realistic outcomes could also be strengthened. That said, the Unlimited Wealth Black Program has reshaped how I approach trading. I now feel more confident in executing trades and managing risk, and I’ve developed a disciplined routine that aligns with my financial goals. Grant’s mentorship played a key role in that transformation. This program is best suited for committed learners who are ready to invest time, effort, and capital. If you’re looking for structured mentorship and a deep dive into forex strategy, Grant Shi is a coach worth learning from.
Follow-up · A great deal has happened since my last review in terms of family drama and my own personal health that prevented me from really focussing on training. Because all of my issues where so grave I was forced into cardio-rehab and decided to discontinue my SmartCharts subscription for 3 months. The Team at Learn To Trade have been behind me all the… Read more

I`ve been interested in trading for a long time and dabbled over the years myself. I decided to get serious about 12 months ago and spent a few months searching for someone I felt comfortable learning from and following. I decided on Learn to Trade - best decision I made.

The Learn to Trade team is very welcoming and supportive. Their program focuses on education that is crucial to one's trading journey. The Smartcharts software uses AI and has embedded training modules. The 1:1 coaching is really making difference for me as it's tailored to suit me. Show reply

Negative reviews
Keep ringing me, alleging I enrolled, which I didn't.. I have asked them to stop repeatedly, but they still keep trying to coherse me in to signing up. I have lodged a complaint with Telecoomunications watchdog who are monitoring all the calls I still receive from these rogues.

ABUSIVE EXPERIENCE, LIED TO BY [Name Removed] AND THEN BLOCKED LIKE OTHER STUDENTS - PROOF AVAILABLE – Several Staff Members [Content Removed]. The FOUNDER and CEO Lied about my training package. It was awful, several students cried and I didn't get the training advertised. The OWNER OF THE COMPANY BLOCKED each of us rather than Helping us. I HAVE PHOTOGRAPHIC PROOF.

Smartcharts has so much built in to it, however the training leads us in progressively. I like how Smartcharts performs much of the hack work for us and then has this way to focus and screens us to the things we need to deal with (and eliminates all the unnecessary noise. As we can review and re sit the learning webinars, it caters for those of us who may not learn as fast as others Show details · 1

Time-saving Forex Trading Platform – I like that their trading platform - SmartCharts - scans all the charts and provides trade indicators based on their proven strategies, saving traders a lot of time searching for trade opportunities. All the traders then need to do is to perform discretionary analysis (taught by LTT), before making the final decision whether to place an order.

to become a successful trader.That’s where Learn to Trade comes into it - they are the training provider that provides the knowledge and skills to succeed as a currency trader.
It’s very important to recognise that trading isn’t for everyone. At the very beginning of the course we learn why the psychology of trading is very important and how our own character plays a big role.
It’s also really important to know that this isn’t some sort of get rich quick scheme - learning to trade is a long and disciplined process that takes time and required input and coaching. It’s not something you can teach yourself.
If you’re keen to take the plunge on currency trading then Learn To Trade is absolutely the best partner for this journey - you’ll become part of a family.
Don’t forget you’l get a bunch of 1 on 1 coaching sessions with a trading mentor and also access to the twice daily market updates and trading opportunities that hold your hand through each news announcement while also looking at market opportunities from signals generated by the trading software.
Once you’ve completed the basic Learn Forex course, they’ll invite you join the prestigious and very in depth Unlimited Wealth course which is an absolute deep dive into trading. This is how you take your trading to the next level. It's an incredible package.
Confidence and fun in Trading – Its a professional platform with excellent follow up processes in place to help you learn to trade with confidence. The Mentors have excellent advise and help to show you what to look for. The Smartcharts system Is very well designed with their rules for trading the markets. Im very happy and having fun.

High Pressure Sales and Questionnable Sales Tactics – Just reading another review on this forum (excerpt below). Sadly, my experience has been the same as theirs. I realized while the person was on the sales call with me pressuring me to purchase. I queried something they said at the end (likely hoping I wouldn't notice) and it clicked for me. I immediately told them I didn't want to go through with… Read more
it as it was not in my best interest to do so and to please reverse the transaction immediately. I was then told I have to wait till a boss was in the office next day. Then when I called the next day, I was told I have to send an email to a particular email address. Then got a reply from a different email address that I have to wait 30 days while they review. Long story short.....I'm still waiting.
The sales call itself it happened immediately after watching the pre-recorded webinar. For me it was extremely high pressure and continuous mentions of it being a recorded line. My guess is - get me to say yes by any means necessary and have it recorded. As I told the salesperson though you don't get to see or experience the product except viewing the webinar, no T&Cs sent until they take your money and by then of course getting it back is a mission. Some things of interest: I was still asked if I didn't want to "leave my money in for 30 days" even after I said I don't want the product. I was asked the same again the next day when I called. You are also required to have an active subscription to the software platform - which you have to give 30 days' notice for before you can cancel it. So it remains active, and it may mean that you have access to the E-Learning products related to whatever you bought for those 30 days. It seems you have only 14 days to request a refund though. Infer from that what you will. My suggestion, make sure you read the T's & C's about product use and find out at which point you are locked into purchasing. The whole setup seems to be about minimizing your ability to get out with your money.
