FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before applying.
Why do I have to pay a $497 deposit just to apply?
The deposit is a filter. I only want to review applications from people who are serious about this. If you're not willing to put $497 on the line, this program probably isn't for you — and that's okay. If I decide we're not the right fit for you right now, you get every dollar back. If you're accepted, it comes off the program fee. It's not a cost — it's a commitment.
What if my application is rejected? Do I get my money back?
Yes. If we don't accept your application, your $497 deposit is refunded in full. A rejection is not a reflection on you, your ability, or your potential as a trader. It just means that right now, based on where you're at, I'm not the right mentor for you at this moment.
Is the program fee refundable?
No. Once your application is accepted and you complete the enrollment payment, the program fee is non-refundable. You acknowledge this during the application process before you pay.
Is this a signals service?
No. I don't send daily setups or tell you which trades to take. I teach you a model and show you how I trade gold — live, with real money. Your job is to learn the model and apply it yourself. Your money, your risk, your decision — always.
Do I need to already know how to trade?
Yes. My students already know ICT concepts — market structure, fair value gaps, liquidity. Most have traded forex, gold, or indices. Most have blown accounts. Most aren't consistent. That's the starting line. If you've never placed a trade, this program isn't where you begin.
How much time do I need to commit?
The actual trading is one or two trades a week, on the right days, at the right times. Weekends are when you study the lessons and review your trades. Most of my students do this alongside a full-time job. But the market doesn't move when it's convenient for you — if you want this badly enough, you'll rearrange your schedule around it.
Can I do this with a full-time job?
Yes. Most of my students have full-time jobs. You don't need to be at the screen all day — you need to be at the screen at the right times. A couple of focused hours on the right days is the actual trading.
What do I actually get in the program?
Every concept and lesson I teach, with real live trade case studies. My weekly market analysis video so you know what I'm watching. My daily bias so you know the direction I'm trading. Direct access to me — ask me any question, as many as you need. And a community of students already trading the model alongside you.
How long until I see results?
The promise is this: in 8 weeks or less, you will know exactly how I trade. You then have the remaining 10 months to prove to yourself that you know it too. Most students start seeing consistency within 3 to 6 months. Some take 12. It depends on the effort you put in.
Will you tell me whether to take a trade or not?
No. I teach you the model, show you the setups in my own live trades, and help you see where your execution is drifting from what the model calls for. That's the job of a mentor — not a signal caller, not a hand-holder. A mirror you can hold up against your own process until it becomes second nature.
How many people do you accept?
A handful per cohort. I only have so many hours, and I'd rather work with a small group of students who actually become consistently profitable than run a high-volume program full of people I knew I couldn't help. My reputation matters more to me than the revenue.
What happens after 12 months?
Your access to the lessons, community, and mentorship lasts 12 months. If you want to continue, you can renew for another year. Most of my students do.
How do I know this isn't just another course that doesn't work?
Because this isn't a course — it's a mentorship. I spent over $250,000 on courses and none of them worked. What changed everything for me was having a mentor. Someone who showed me exactly what they do and then watched my trades and told me what I was doing wrong. That's what Forex Recipes is built to do.
What's the application review process?
I review every application myself within 72 hours. I'm looking for the truth about where you are, what you've tried, and what you actually want. I'm not looking for polished answers — I'm looking for honesty. The more specific you are, the better chance we both have of making the right decision.
