I wasn't aware that they were still operational after the software arm of NOFT was sold, but Kai Whitney has my endorsement. If you are dealing with anyone other than Kai, then Red Bridge does not get my automatic endorsement.

I think 30 days would be optimistic for anyone. (Although starting from scratch is probably easier than someone who's been poorly trained before).

My sample size is fairly small, but of the 8 or so traders I'm familiar with that have gone through the previous courses, only 2 were consistently profitable. I tried to convince 1 to join the team but you know how lone wolves are.

On the down side, there was one instructor that was part of the program who shall go unmentioned that seemed like a complete tool. This is why the previous endorsement did not extend to other instructors.

Now, more constructively, of the two that I know are profitable, both would not attribute 100% of their success to Kai, I think they woudl more accurately ascribe only 60-70% of their success.

Best of luck in your endeavors. And hopefully you can make it to at least Lisbon or Malaga if not St. Kitts. =)

Hi.
I hold Kai in high regard with a good overall market understanding that he translates to profit.

I have done some training with RedBridge's Kai in group session settings when he was part of developing NOFT(ninja order flow trading).
I have read some of your prior questions and thread on inquiring on the footprint.

The footprint is only a piece. He also taught me to understand what drives the Financial Markets and any market. The basics and some nuances of it. When to trade, when to wait and other.

Kai is well versed in reading the footprint. I have seen him use it numerous times, in real time and in replay. He helped me to read the footprint and learn the nuances of it. He has numerous strategies and studies with the footprint, but the footprint is only a piece of what he can offer.
Kai is a genuine and real person. I've seen him win trades and more importantly how to take losses live. A lot of people can show you winning trades, they can cherry pick. He has shown me on numerous occasions trading off the footprint and the dom how to win and how to lose. Why is knowing how to lose important? Cause that's where it is at imo. Taking break even losses up to -2 ticks(on top of a good trading methodology, mindset and moneymanagement), in CL and smaller in bonds. I'm not saying he doesn't take bigger losses, but I am saying he knows when to step out of the trade.
I've seen him trade CL live on multiple occasions. A lot of people trade CL, I have seen him do it with 5ot8 tick initial stops, as those are his stop sizes in CL...not 10 to 18 like many people. This includes knowing when his 5to8ticks stop is no longer valid and when to just exit with a small profit or break even.

From a long term perspective I will say he has knowledge that carries over from his floor trading and hedge fund days.
The day and week of the oil low in feb2016 he discussed buying oil in etfs, and other vehicles. I was in class with him that day. He also suggested buying various other assets like stocks and etfs. One month later I see Buffets SEC filings with him buying in the same stocks and that was the week Kai had bought to hold with oil at $26.
On dec22 or dec23,2016 he said GOLD will be one of the biggest trades of 2017.

I've never posted before - I am interested in the NOFT trading program but don't have the funds to pay them. What is the best poor-man's way to learn this? I just watched Troy Epperson - they have an intro for $99.00 but then he said it was $10,000 for the full meal deal. Also, I work part time.

Since this thread was part of the reason I reached out to Kai for mentorship, I figure I would give my feedback from my experience.

I have been SIM trading for I believe 4 years now, jumping from one thing to another, but footprint charts were never one of them. I tried going live a couple of times, but watching the account quickly drain I would stop after a few days.

With a very skeptical approach, I finally decided to look into some mentors. I've watched a few videos and reached out to a couple of them. For whatever reasons, I liked Kai's communication skills and the way he related certain concepts on videos that I watched.

After talking with him and explaining my background, we decided to commit. While I wasn't trading profitably in 30 days, I was live and profitable after 6 weeks. Still am, 2 weeks later. Of course mistakes are still made, but instead of going 1 step forward and 2 steps back, it's more 2 steps forward and 1 step back.

I am not saying Kai gave me everything needed to go live, i.e. giving me a sort of generic trade setup. No no. He helped me understand auction market theory and order flow from the footprint chart, in a way that it was easy enough for me to add to my previous trading knowledge that I've built over the years.

Could I have learned this without him? Perhaps eventually, but not within the short timeframe I experienced. For me personally, I needed that extra help to put all the pieces together, as well as adding a few more to complete things. Heck, there was one point he called me out for not taking it seriously enough!

You still need to put in your time and hard work to get to where you need to go. There is no spoon-feeding on making one profitable. For me, having Kai to lean on and teach me things I didn't realize I was missing was an important part of me going live.

You can take my review for what it's worth: my experience. Feel free to PM me if you wish to ask questions.
