You could search for any of the keywords in any of her 9 units in youtube and get free videos with value. That's how easy it is to setup her course outline. None of the units are on risk management. This is a major red flag as far as how profitable she is with trading. She calls her stop loss orders 'my risk management'.

She enters when price goes between a 1597 EMA with 610 EMA on a 610tick ES chart. I can only imagine the amount of time she's been stopped out.

It's very easy to be a hindsight trader and call out double tops and double bottoms after they happened. Doesn't mean you can make money off that.

No DOM's are shown in any of her video, so no assumption can be made that the profitable trades are on real accounts.

Ask for a trading statement, if none are provided. It's probably a scam.
If there is a provided statement, forward it to the clearing firm with a topic like "Possible fraudulent behavior" and ask them if the trading statement was forged, aka editing was done on the file other than hiding personal account information. The name of the account holder should enable them to easily find if the records match.

But then again, if your trading is so bulletproof, why would you spend the additional time to build a youtube channel, a website, spending time with your customers, coaching them. For $297, she offers mentoring for 30 days. How many clients can she have before it get overwhelming?

@JustinIsHere,

Solid due diligence framework. The clearing firm verification step is one most people skip -- that alone separates serious vetting from surface-level Googling.

A few additional red flags worth noting when evaluating any trading educator, including The Trader Chick:

• No risk management curriculum -- You nailed this. Anyone trading ES intraday without a structured risk framework is either hiding drawdowns or doesn't have one. A stop loss is a tool, not a strategy.
• Indicator-heavy entries without context -- A 1597/610 EMA cross on a 610-tick chart is highly specific. Specificity without published forward-testing data is just curve-fitting dressed up as methodology.
• No DOM, no Level 2, no time & sales -- For someone claiming to actively trade ES, the absence of order flow evidence is telling. Footprint or volume profile would at least show market participation. Screenshots of chart-only setups prove nothing.
• Scalability of mentoring -- Your point about $297/30 days is sharp. The math doesn't work for a consistently profitable trader unless the teaching IS the business model.

The general checklist I'd apply to any course vendor:

1. Audited or broker-verified statements (not screenshots)
2. Live trading with real-time entries, not post-hoc annotations
3. Drawdown disclosure -- max DD, losing streaks, recovery periods
4. Clear methodology that can be independently backtested

The Trader Chick reviews on this thread highlight exactly why peer review from traders who know what to look for matters. An 85% claimed accuracy with zero verifiable evidence should trigger skepticism from anyone who's sat in front of a DOM.

Have a good weekend!
