A few words from happy students:
Eddie Lamb - Thank you Petko & Ilan I have been trading for some time and have also completed quite a few of Petko's courses. However this is the first course that includes a contribution by Ilan. Both instructors complement each other and do a fine job of covering the subject matter so that it can be understood by a beginner. I highly recommend this course it is instructional and having Ilan do all the 'heavy lifting' by providing weekly EA updates makes it value for money and a no brainer. Thanks Guys!
Luiz de AsisUpdated - The best coaches in Forex algo trading in the world. Believe me. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. More power Petko and Ilan!
Piet Janse Van Rensburg - All courses from Petko is very good and understandable. I did a few of his courses and all of it are of good quality
Paul C. - As with all the others great material and the bonus here is definitely weekly EA's that are traded live By Ilan himself, very unique since I have yet to see any other course anywhere aside from how good the material in them may or may not be that essentially puts its money where its mouth is so to speak.
Craig M. - I found the course very useful when it comes to automated trading. It is a great way to get started with automated, systematic trading with EAs. Again this definitely helps with getting a balanced portfolio of currency pairs and with many demo accounts, you can see how they perform. I like how you don't have to learn programming language with MT4. Finally, I like how you can extract the best-performing EAs and place them on your live account.

My name is Petko Alexandrov, and I am a professional trader & investor.
Every year, I have over 10 000 new students joining my courses from around the world, which makes me very happy!
I have graduated from Trading in London. After that, I had many opportunities to work as an institutional trader and mentor.
I have worked for a couple of Brokers and trading companies, but there was always something missing for me because they were limiting me to create new strategies and systems for trading. Their purpose of working is different.
I started teaching, and I found out that this way, there were no limitations for me. I love to give all of my knowledge to the people that wish to learn. So I have created the first Trading Academy where you can learn algorithmic trading without IT Skills.
I can say that I deliver something different - the best strategies that I use, and I am not greedy to use them only by myself. I want more and more people to make profits from trading.
Nowadays, algorithmic trading is a must for every successful trader, and I use professional programs to develop and create all the strategies that I share in my courses. I have been testing and creating EAs for many years, and I will bring my best to you!

This was tremendous, solid gold with diamond studs. I have taken five of your courses so far and am trying to soak up as much of your knowledge and experience as I can. I'm about to start with demo accounts as you do here and after a month shall start small with a 100Euro live account. If all goes well after a month I shall invest another 100Euro and run more EAs and progress from there each month. Probably after a year I shall withdraw all my initial investments and just trade with profits and let it run...

Thank you, Petko, Miran, and the entire team. I spent 18 months struggling with trading, going nowhere, until I came across this guy on Udemy who spoke with a funny accent (I’m Australian, so I get it—people think I talk funny too!). That guy was Petko. He was hilarious, and I thought, “Why not give one of his courses a shot?” A few months later, I’ve now purchased over 10 of his courses and even invested in the Optimal Pack from his website. I’ll be honest, there was a small issue at the start, but the team went above and beyond to fix it. They resolved it quickly, outside of business hours, just so I could get up and running. As a gesture of goodwill, they even gifted me another course for the inconvenience. Fast forward to today—I’m running over 300 robots and turning a profit. This has truly changed my life. I had to sell my car to fund these courses and my account balance, but it was worth it. Being on a disability pension due to metastatic cancer, this is my only way to generate income. If you ever have the chance to invest in the Expert Advisor Studio, I highly recommend it. If not, at least try their courses. The lifetime monthly updates they offer are phenomenal and have been invaluable to me. Thank you, Petko and the team, for everything. You have no idea how much you’ve changed my life.

it is very basic, very short course, the quality of the video is only 720 it is hard for read, the video lessons dont go with the downloaded content.... All the EAs the give you for download are Hourly, nothing else and they want you to buy more in a link they provide you with...

Awesome Course! Throughout my forex journey I really like the idea of managing trading bots. I've had this course over a year now and feel a little stupid for not pushing myself. now I'm back on track trusting the robots and my risk management plan. Great course. I only use the bots for the pairs I would trade and It works out good for me.

I totally enjoyed this course! It is well structured and the delivery is clear and straight to the point. Getting the EAs is a huge bonus! Kudos to Petko & IIan for continually tweaking the EAs to keep up with changing market conditions. Thank you for making my forex trading journey less stressful.
By Edoardo Argentieri on 3/17/2021
I expected just that from this course, straight to the point. Of course the most useful thing are the robots, but still a very good course
By Muhammad Usman on 11/23/2020
