About Prop Trading Academy

Every member gets the rules-based lessons, the indicators, an archive of more than 600 recorded live sessions, a trading journal and the community.[1] Premium members add regular live training with Carne, the chance to ask questions live and new session recordings, while VIP members also get a monthly one-hour private call with Carne that includes a personal trading review.[1] The academy's website lists free one-to-one coaching and a free masterclass, and frames the goal as passing free prop firm challenges until paid ones become routine.[2]

The listing states: "Education only. Trading involves risk."[1] It adds that past performance does not guarantee future results.[1] The owner's profile states that the owner will never ask members for money or to invest in anything.[1]
