Market Risks Not managed,Bad onboarding,Hype in Sales
No Profit Booking.Hype of performance during webinars, Bad onboarding. Autotrading is mainly for entry of trades or rolling over at maturity. No intermediate review and exits when very decent gains are presented in the market.I joined the Spy Trading, Equity portfolio management and Futures trading/ ratio trading/ Letter of direction trading. Spy was non starte for me as there were no trades for 2 to 3 weeks and I obtained refund. Ratio trading offered for the first time. These programs have Bubba as the trader. Many Futures traders were served with margin calls in the first or second week and this caused panick among subscribers. This was revealed by Target Trading guys to me . When my equity portfolio management account had over 50 % gains (17 k gains)in the first 3 trading days no exits were made. Bubba /Target trading waited till friday when the profits were given back along with another 3k or so of my capital . So I gained 17 k in 3 days and gave back 20k to the market in the next 3 days. In fact my account value fell down to 24k at one point and slightly recovered afterwards. Based on the experience I exited the trades manually when they showed some recovery as I did not want to trust them with making right calls at the right times.The risky s thing is that Bubba does both Calls and Put Credit Spreads simultaneouslys. This looks really good on the face of it. However If the market goes the other way then your calls lose value and credit spreads must be purchased at 3 times the money they brought to the account. So the risks are not evident and can quickly wipe out an account in 2 or 3 bad weeks of trading.When I asked them why they did not book profits , i was dismissed with the response that stop whining and start making profits.Really ? The week end recording said that when market has back to back gains one should expect losses subsequently ,and losses are perfectly normal. Good wisdom! Why did it not dawn on him when there are outsized gains on the table just for closing the trades? So auto trading is just an auto entry of trades in the trading platform. Did not see much of a trade monitoring, risk management, profit booking.The program will make you money if the market goes up week after week after week. If any reversals happen during the week or market does not move as expected then you have good chance of losing your account in a matter of weeks as trades do not appear to be well managed.

Exceptional 1-on-1 Mentoring Experience
As a student at Target Trading Academy (TTA) for the past few years, my overall experience has been tremendously rewarding. There is no doubt in my mind that I would not still be trading futures if I tried to do it alone. Recently, I completed a short 1-on-1 mentorship program with one of TTA's top instructors, Randall Matheny. In three sessions, Randall helped me to take my trading to the next level. He has an extremely effective teaching style and is excellent at imparting his trading knowledge and skill to his students. We covered a great deal, in efficient and effective fashion - from trading mechanics to understanding the context of the market. As a TTA student, I had a great deal of confidence to start, but Randall helped boost my confidence significantly. The TTA Team and Randall have my highest recommendation.

The best futures day-trading method out there
I have been learning to day-trade futures by the TTA methodology for the last 6 months. This is the ONLY (to my knowledge) trading system that allows you to successfully predict market action under certain circumstance, with advance warning. THey have a long term 70% win rate at 1:1 risk-to-reward. Verified. But (I think) more important is the tremendous amount of on-going teaching done during all trading hours, by personal emails, and in an extensive student library of past educational courses. And they spend a great deal of time on discipline - how NOT to lose your winnings after successful trades. I have had a lot of experience with options traders, and i have NEVER been part of anything even as remotely outstanding as this. The teaching personnel ALL trade with this system. THey are responsible, personable, and easily accessible. THis is the best

Don't take my word for it, please check it out if you want to learn how to trade the most astute way.

Has been a great start to a second income stream
It has been extremely helpful getting a structure to make trades. Over time I gained more confidence, learned what pitfalls to avoid so that I don't throw money away. Since going live I have built up to larger trades and am now seeing dividends from the work. Will become a nice source of future income I can do in my spare time.

I have been a part of Target Trading…
I have been a part of Target Trading Academy since August 2022, and even though I am still in the early stages of my journey, I have nothing but praise for them. The course materials are comprehensive, presented in a clear and easily understandable manner. The in-classroom teaching is exceptional, providing a world-class learning experience. Moreover, the ongoing support from the entire Target Trading Academy Team reassures me that I am never alone on this journey. My only regret is not discovering this incredible resource earlier! I wholeheartedly recommend giving them a try – you won't need to look elsewhere!

Great for new and experienced traders
I am new to trading even though I have always been interested. I heard Patrick on the radio, and decided to give them a call. What a great decision! The Team gives you direction based on where you are starting, and you can progress at your pace. I recently attended a Mastermind event in Pompano Beach, and the vision and integrity of this Team was on display. Whether new or experienced, Target Trading will put you on the path to achieve your goals!

Using the Target Trading system and process, you will learn new skills that will enable you to create an independent income stream that no one can take away, you can do it from anywhere you have a stable internet connection, and you can make money regardless of what is happening in the markets and the economy.

Highest Recommendation
I've only been enrolled at Target Trading Academy a few months, but Patrick Assalone and his team have exceeded my expectations. I don't do a lot of reviews but this one is easy to write. The futures trading instruction is very clear and specific. They don't just tell you how the futures markets work, Patrick has a very specific trading method that teaches you how to trade responsibly, and provides you with information a day in advance to help you trade. I could not find anybody else that does this. I am still in practice mode but am very pleased with the progress I have made and the results that I have achieved. I encourage you to reach out to them and have a discussion so that you can see for yourself. Patrick Assalone and his team at Target Trading Academy have my highest recommendation.

TRUST - INTEGRITY - CONFIDENCE
I started with Patrick Assalone several years ago after experiencing a terrible Futures Trading venue that pledged success only to leave you stranded and plagued with expensive incompetent material. Having said that; PLEASE: know that trading Futures especially “Live” is a serious undertaking and No Less than the absolute best instruction can provide you success. Instruction must include an understandable trading approach, clear performance level requirements, unlimited support coupled with objective daily chart analysis both SIM or LIVE. This is exactly what I found with Target Trading Academy. Please do not take my word look at the hundreds of student reviews each qualify that Patrick offers his expert direction, analysis, and his method-based trading approach!When I first came upon Patrick’s Target Trading Academy, I was seriously skeptical, instead I found a well-designed and fully supported platform. “I examined it thoroughly” and without hesitation I was in, and I never looked back. Once you enter the program Patrick and his instructors recognize that you cannot succeed unless they tightly integrate methodology with oversight. You will find a full range of student graduated trading levels. Patrick’s advanced process will train and lead you to that ultimate decision; “when do I start trading live”? This program develops insight through your performance training, develops focused recognition qualified by continued personal support. Here it is, a successful one-of-a-kind method.I am a student wishing you good luck!Gregory S.

Great views and restaurants nearby within walking distance.

Pat and his team are relentless in the pursuit of trading excellence!
Pat and his team are relentless in driving students to be the best traders we can be. First by teaching a simple yet great system, and always encouraging learning by doing. Second, they consistently provide first class feedback in the room on each trade sent in for review so all can learn! At the end of the day session a recap of all submitted trades are posted to YouTube and Facebook!Third they have created a suite of educational videos and material to allow students to review what is taught in thevirtual trading room, via the website available 24 hours a day, seven days a week!Finally, the Student Coordinator and Sales Director both provide valuable feedback loops in confidence to Pat and his team on the issues from students and prospects.

TOP NOTCH. These people know what they are doing.
I have been with Target Trading Academy since 2021 and I am now starting my second year with them. The product, knowledge and support is excellent and you will not get a better education anywhere else.I participate in the educational training rooms as well as the "live" rooms. The videos they put together are outstanding and always available for a refresh if needed.My trading is now very focused and now I am able to set some real goals for myself.Unlike other so called "educational companies" and (I have tried them) where information is expensive and "spoon fed", Questions would go unanswered and you never seem to get a straight answer. Target Trading Academy is 100% up-front, hands on and their support including offering multiple trading platforms mentorship is top notch.I highly recommend these people.

Just got back from a trading seminar…
Just got back from a trading seminar with Target Trading Academy in Fl (4/1/22) and it was a great learning experience. All the attendees (customers and instructors) done everything they could to help bring my trading up to a new level. I have attended seminars from other companies in the past and they tend to show you what they know without any good explanation of how you can trade the method. Target Trading Academy will train you from the beginning and make sure you understand the method before you advance.

The best place to learn trading futures
There are only two best places to learn trading - the market (with your real money) and Target. I'll choose Target and Patrick anytime.I've been with Target Trading in Patrick's room for more than 18 months. I tell my friends and family that if they want to be serious about making a career in trading, Patrick should be their first teacher. Don't go any place else and learn bad trading habits.Before coming to Target, I used to use a well tested indicator along with market & volume profile. I managed to survive and not blow my account. I was also full of stress and anxiety. Trading psychology and execution was always a problem area. Nobody, except Patrick, teaches you about execution. Nobody, except Patrick, teaches you when and where to stay out (very very important, and its an understatement) and where the high probability zones are. Patrick's approach is all about clean and stress-free execution. He is a tough task master and has your best interest in mind. He reviews every trade you send and points out any flaws. You can expect a mouthful if you keep repeating mistakes, which is so much better anyday anytime because the market is unforgiving and far more ruthless when you make mistakes. My win rate is above 80% and my trades are over in a few minutes. Trading is so much fun now. I wish I had known Target Trading when I started trading 7 years ago. My kid will join Target Trading Academy once she is out of high school.
