No algos here I have been flopping around with retail trading for more than 10 years and was looking for more. Well, I found it at Apteros Trading. If you are looking for a quick buck or some fancy algorithm, you won't find it here. What you will get is a rock solid foundation to develop an edge along with great support from the Apteros Trading team and the trading community.

Great experience. I mentored with Merritt in 2018, and I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to learn from him and the Apteros community. He is a gifted teacher, with a true passion for his craft and a real connection to his students. He teaches brilliantly, whether its a planned talk or on the fly, open to any question, analysis of whatever session or market. He just dives in and the information flows. His depth of knowledge and experience is clear, but he keeps on evolving and upping his game, and sharing with the community. Truly leading by example. I found the Apteros community amazing. Such diverse, supportive, clever and good-humored quality people! I will always think of Merritt as a master wayfinder of the trading environment and journey, who was generous enough to show me his maps. I continue to benefit from the knowledge he shared, every day.

True Proffessionals Well, what can I say that others haven't said already? The course content is excellent and easy to follow, even though it is a lot to take in. For those not familiar with Apteros and Merritt Black, don't worry you're in safe hands, I have to say I have spent a bucket load of cash on other courses, training and such, but none compares to what's on offer at Apteros. Merritt is a real stand-up guy who's honest, hardworking & genuine, a rare commodity in the Trader training industry, and the reason apart from the above attributes is he's not in it to sell loads of course material although he will cos of his reputation, its because he cares about those that ask for his help. Merritt gives his time to answer questions even from non-paying students, the sign of a great teacher. His professionalism and trading knowledge are second to none. This is demonstrated in the content of the first chapter of the NADRO course which is the most important but often overlooked or even demoted to the end by other providers, and that is the unsexy topic of "Mental Framework" and the need to evolve our thinking and attitudes to become successful, "Thinking like a casino". I wholeheartedly recommend taking a look at NADRO which is a beautiful framework for identifying the risk-reward landscape & then finding ways to access those opportunities. NADRO & indeed Apteros are not just training courses or a provider they are a community of like-minded people willing to share and help each other grow.

Learn to Truly Understand Markets I’ve done and seen a lot of things in the trading world, but I’ve never been taught how to truly generate trades for myself. I think this is the most important thing I can offer to anyone else outside of the Apteros Community. Merritt has been the only mentor I’ve ever had who showed me how to produce trade ideas that work day-after-day. He holds nothing back from you… no secret sauce… no magic indicator… If you are willing to do the real work, there is no limit to what you can accomplish here. I could say so much more, but the simple and undeniable fact is that Merritt taught me to trade consistently for myself. I think that’s the greatest praise I can offer.

Honest devolopment for the traders I am in the tryout and also the intensive. Merritt adds VALUE to the traders. I am also experienced with NADRO methodology. It is not a magic method, it is a flexible way of working in the markets.... You understand the process and the context. Deal with the market like an auction is very helpful. I am not looking for money to be traded, I am looking for a real futures prop desk to grow as a trader.
