Limited Time

If your short on time and want to automate your trading - unless you have lots of money to invest this is not for you.
As a full time worker trying to keep up with the training plan and trying to come up with your own strategies - its a real struggle.
Don't expect the initial cost they give you as being it, there is always the next best strategy. For me this was a total waste of time and Money

Learn How to Find an Edge

Unger Academy has taught me what I wanted to learn most about trading: How to find an edge. Andrea's method is very effective and can be learned by anyone willing to put in the work.

It's early days yet but!

I thought I'd leave a review even though I have a long way to go. My reason is that other people may find my comments helpful as I came to this with absolutely no Systematic Trading experience.
The reality is this is hard work but common sense should tell anyone that, the course is around learning to write and develop programs as opposed to merely buy and sell signals, it took me a while to get involved but the content is really very well laid out and the infrastructure behind the Academy seems substantial.
The on line tutorials on the dedicated dashboard are very comprehensive and everything is there but be clear even with the dedicated coach option, it is a serious commitment but I realised if I don't understand then in times of difficulty I will not process well problems and this will lead to mistakes.
My view is having some trading or speculating experience particularly in a discretionary way will help as certain elements of the markets are the same and understanding orders and risk will fast track.
This is not a get rich quick scheme nor is it easy money and it takes time but so far despite being very hesitant I have not found anything that is not answered in the course.
I have no experience of other courses but Andrea Unger and everyone I've dealt with at Unger comes across as genuine, honest and actually invested in me getting the most out of it, they are nice people.
I can't see my positive view altering so am happy to leave this review

The systematic trading is really working

The systematic trading is really effective in my experience because it focuses on automatic patterns rather than discretional decisions and also offers multiple possibilities to differentiate the trading. At the beginning it required preparation and time to study but then it becomes less stressful and more similar to a regular routine.

Misunderstanding about the coach profile set right

At the beginning we had a misunderstanding about the profile of the coach of the Advanced Coaching Program. Finally UA managed to set this right and organise an experienced coach as the ones who chair the weekly coaching calls (I am very happy for that). Again many thanks UA and I am looking forward to the personal coaching sessions!

Is a scam going on at Unger academy?

Well, I was interested at first and scheduled a meeting as instructed. Got a call from one Petko Petkov at about 10.30pm EST (Australia). As the call progressed, I was asked If I can make payments. Well the caller asked for my email, mastercard nos, expiry date but I cut the call at CVC. Also blocked the card afterwards.
Has any other person experienced such? I would have thought that there should be a portal to make such payment.

*ADDENDUM*
Unger academy has indeed cleared the doubts. Kudos for actually replying.

Highly recommended!!!

I cannot recommend enough this trading course!
I have been a profitable discretionary trader for almost 2.5 years now and I was looking into diversifying my portfolio. I have started with systematic trading almost 1 year ago (mainly using Python), until I found the Unger Academy. Definitely another approach and another level...the full course is different than anything else I have seen so far out there!

The material is dense, deeply explained and well presented. Every aspects of this world is covered and explained through the online course and the printed handbooks.

What amazed me even more than the course itself, is the "infrastructure" provided with the various tools that help with the development and the optimisation of any strategy. Basically, all your ideas can be tested for real and optimised to become profitable. A big Add-on are definitely the coaching calls to clarify all your doubts as well as the support of the community. Furthermore, during the One Year Target, your strategies will be evaluated by the coaches themselves.

It does require dedication, time and will-power to study in order to understand deeply all concepts behind, but the results of your hard work will be visible fairly soon. Highly recommended!!!

A great choice for traders

After 1 year in the program I can confirm the positive experience. The program covers all relevant aspects for a serious automated and systematic trading approach. Before I joined the program I had already some experience in automated trading and a few strategies on Demo accounts. My expectation from the program was to build a portfolio of strategies and go live in trading, thanks to the Unger Academy I have achieved this after a few months. Without the program it migh take some years to reach the same level of knowledge, therefore I can recommend the programm, no matter if you are a beginner with some serious commitment or having already experience in automated trading.

Not to buy

I was feeling was the right choice. First month you start strong and so i did. Keep going studing 6months straight. After u discover that here, there are things not clear, there, there are too many people and u cant ask a question, over there, there is lack of reply or data or step by step and confusion and so on. Looking back, money wasted, i learned not to trade at all and focus on something more stable. The only think you learn, is to not to try to beat the market bcs nobody can (no normal people, even if you have superpower). Even if they say they do (when you are super expert) +30% yr on avarage. The Material is good, there are few things very valuable, but pushing to buy other stuff, when u are too young in the course and still with good vibes, it just makes the all "family" style, the next money machine.
Do not buy. If you wanna buy ask a discount about 50% or more, on top of buy now with a 33% discount. That is the right value. It is very expensive related to what you get. Do not buy is my review. Sorry guys. AFTER THE REPLY TO MY REVIEW: still i remain very disappointed, bcs the coaching call are organized badly, to be not effective and discurage to partecipate. Facebook has limited use. And i bought the algo trader fast "new modules", not the old one. No guys the course is very overprized, u play on the gambling attitude of people and sell something that for that price, it should be perfect. And it is faaaar from perfection. Not to buy. Final conclusion.

The Unger Academy is a real deal!

The Unger Academy is a real deal!

First of all, I was doing discretionnary trading by my own for 10 years already without really having significant results. Since I was a student of the Unger Academy my approach has changed for the better. The excellence of the content shocked me literally! The approach we learn is simple, professional, scientifically proven and anyone who really wants can apply it. My mother tongue is neither Italian nor English and I was able to understand all the content that it is very well explained. The avalability of the coaches is another one of the best thing you will find with the program.

I strongly recommend the Unger Academy to any investor who wants to approach trading professionally. Do not ask yourself what it costs, but rather what will it bring you!
