Saturday "training"
Attended the recent Saturday "training" session - it should instead be called the Saturday sales pitch! Everything was geared towards selling products. Nothing wrong with that in and of itself, but the YT videos promoting the "training" made it appear as if training was to be the main goal/focus of the session. Felt like it was promising one thing and delivering another.
Really enjoyed my coaching calls with Jesus
Really enjoyed my coaching calls with Jesus. He is very knowledgeable and provided clear practical guidance.
New starter experience
Ive wanted to learn more about trading and investment for some time now, selecting the right path which pairs in with my working life was always going to be key to my success. I'm 2 weeks in and have been consuming the material at a high rate which I believe is due to the availability of coaching, tools and set-up which the GOAT academy provides. The professionals you get access to in real life trading examples make the training a "lived experience" which means you're not working in theory like many other courses. This makes the transition to real live trading so much easier as you are proven in a safe environment. Honestly, I'm very excited about where this course is taking me. If you are sitting on the fence and wondering if you should give these guys a go, I think you will be presently surprised.
Clear Learning Path and Coaching to Become a Successful Independent Trader/Investor
There is a clear learning path of coursework, with group and 1:1 coaching. The emphasis is on knowledge transfer and being an independent trader/investor. This makes me more accountable for my own success. There are many other benefits, too long to list here.
With this new knowledge, I've had to look at and improve myself. The results are showing more and more, day by day.
Ella has been a great Student Success Manager, helping answer my questions and guiding my improvement to succeed.
My coach has been great too!!
Thank you.
Thank you GOAT Academy
Thank you GOAT Academy. Felix and, his team of mentors and the wider academy team have produced an excellent learning environment for something everyone should know.
I have learnt how to avoid all of my rookie errors, and now have the opportunity to refine my strategy for growing my wealth based on actual rules. Love the simplicity, and the extra video content that helps me underscore about the markets and trading psychology.
The live groups sessions and archived session videos are excellent resources. It’s just a really worthwhile thing to do.
I still lose on trades, but now know how to limit the downside, and now have a better looking and more diverse portfolio with more Upside than before. More practice will yield more good results. Thanks Felix and team.
Great knowledge
Great knowledge, professional coaches and wonderful community, the best place really worth to join :-)
Serious program for serious students
This is a fantastic program with massive amounts of resources to help you learn whatever it is you want to focus on. I have been blown away by the quality of the senior coaches and the access to them already makes the tuition worth it in my opinion. My CSM, Angelique is there for me anytime I need help with anything. My coaches, Jae Yu and Troy Russell, have been so patient in teaching me everything I wanted to learn in spite of my being a little clunky with technology. There are live trainings and video recordings on every subject so you can never run out of material. I made my year’s tuition back in a matter of weeks. I have almost 30 years of experience in the stock market and even was a stock broker for a minute in my 20s, and I feel like I have barely scratched the surface of all the information that’s available in this program. One thing I will say is that it takes a lot more time to complete all the work than they tell you initially. They told me 3-5 hours per week and I am easily spending 2-4 times that amount and am still feeling like I could be doing more. Regardless, if you are serious and willing to put the time in, it’s absolutely worth every penny and more.
An Alumni's journey into the noise
As a Goat Academy Alumni, I can say that my knowledge & investing skills are light years ahead of the void previous. I came to the Academy after falling for the silver frenzy of late 2025 and watching my investment crash 36% Jan 29th. Through the Academy I gained invaluable risk management tools, screening skills, calm discernment, portfolio tracking and management. I found all the coaches extremely patient, knowledgeable, experienced and the curriculum very digestible & easy to follow. I did not have the budget for the 1:1 coaching and was initially bummed but the small class sizes make it easy to interact & ask questions with coaches anyway. So I'm a different person and fishing for myself with an easier time deciphering signal from noise in this crazy era.
False promises made on a money back…
False promises made on a money back guarantee refund if you are not satisfied with the program.
Please read the fine print before you sign up for this program. Deceptive trade practices used in sales and marketing.
Not worth the subscription fee charged, new subscribers beware of the sales and marketing of "Felix and Friends" and the Goat Academy.
You will not regret making the decision to join.
I joined the Academy just over a week ago and with all such decisions I was somewhat nervous as to whether the actual course would live up to my expectations which were very high after researching it thoroughly. I am thrilled to say that everything about my interaction with programme, the student support and the coaches has been extremely professional. It is carefully structured in a way that allows you to become familiar with the plentiful resources and to begin to learn the world of successful trading at your own pace without becoming overwhelmed. You do need to make a financial investment to sign up to this programme but I am now convinced I have made the correct decision.
I would definitely recommend Felix…
I would definitely recommend Felix Academy. Whether you’re completely new to investing or already have some experience, it’s a great place to learn and develop your skills.
You also get access to several different coaches for 1-on-1 sessions, which I find extremely valuable. Having the opportunity to discuss ideas, ask questions, and learn directly from experienced coaches adds a lot of value to the overall experience.
Solid program and a fair value
I have been trading equities for around 15 years using statistical arbitrage techniques to trade fixed time ranges. Over this time, the market has gotten much more efficient, and the methods I have used have started to lose their edge. I decided it was time to become more acquainted with traditional stock trading methods, techniques, and philosophies. I chose GOAT to help me with this. GOAT starts from the ground floor and pays special attention to risk management. They have a structured program that thoroughly teaches you, step by step, how to survive in the market.
Quite a few people dream of making a living trading in the market, and I have always discouraged them from doing so. Active retail traders lose a lot of money. However, lately, when I talk with people who are interested in stock trading, I tell them to check out GOAT. The foundation you can build with this program is solid. I have learned a lot and was able to meet the goals that I set for myself.
GOAT have some excellent coaches, and if you are willing to engage, it will be a great experience. I especially enjoyed the classes that Jesus Rodriguez taught; they acted like a launching pad to get me to think beyond what was covered in the class. I also enjoyed the one-on-one meetings I had with the coaches. I met with a few of them, and they were all good. I especially enjoyed meeting with Frederic; he has some simple and effective frameworks and will also share more advanced techniques and frameworks.
For me, GOAT was a solid program and a fair value. I have recommended it to friends and people interested in the market.
It is You investing in You!!
It is a structured system that requires you to be patient and follow the roadmap, which is exactly what I needed. I have noticed it also has helped drown out the FOMO noise from social media etc which to be honest, was a big distraction and impedes you from progressing and learning.
The Goat Academy instills you with confidence, a true raw confidence that you are moving in the right direction. I am 1 month into it and I have personally developed more in that month than in the last 12 months of Youtube, X etc. Dont get me wrong, Youtube is very good for helping you but it is not built as a roadmap for you to follow. Thats where Goat Academy has given me that edge.
And remember, it's You investing in You! When was the last time you invested in yourself?
Hanna was great trying to get me an…
Hanna was great trying to get me an extension up the Gost academy. Absolutely professional!
Outstanding training and customer service
From the moment I started the Goat Academy, my assigned customer success manager, Angelique, has made my experience seamless. I feel completely supported. She also recommended coaches that fit me specifically -- I am fortunate to be training regularly with Richard to become a quantitative trader based on Felix's approach. And I am loving Elliot's MarketMakers Edge for the discretionary portion of my portfolio. His very clear (and patient!) explanation of market-maker trading mechanics is helping to explain at least part of the baffling stock market reactions. Daniel H has enlightened me on longterm investing. Frederic and Patrick have also been very informative- I wish I had more time:) The tools and reports designed and written by Felix and his staff are really insightful and presented in a digestible format. Super excited about my remaining year of training!
Great course for beginner investors
I did the 6 month program with the GOAT academy, and they provide a very solid foundation on how to select good stocks, how to build the portfolio and good entry points and exit points that are based on specific rules that are easy to follow and relate to the industry standard. I had however been investing in stocks for 10+ years prior, so I felt like I already had the knowledge given in the entry level course, and maybe my expectation was wrong going into it. Because of this I requested the money back guarantee, and they honoured the request once all program steps were completed. I really appreciate how they recognized my situation and returned the money, provided I followed the program.
I would still recommend the course for beginners, and I will be looking into the more advanced program they offer for myself in the future.
My only remark would be regarding the intake meeting, where I feel I gave enough information of my background that perhaps the more advanced course could've been offered from the start. I also had issues joining most live sessions because of the timezone difference and my work schedule. Recordings are available, but it felt much better when I could join live and participate in the sessions.
In any case, I appreciate the GOAT academy for the experience, and recommend it for people who want to learn a good and structured way to invest in stocks.
My take on Goat Academy
There's a lot to get right in order to be a successful trader. This company is not about gimmicks. It's comprised of real, successful traders that truly care about their students' success. It's a lot of information to take in, but when you sort it out, you're in a much better place. Thank you!
Great start with Goat Academy
I recently started with Goat Academy, and so far so good. Support has been attentive and easy to reach, and getting set up as a beginner felt well supported rather than overwhelming. Early days, but a solid first impression.
Goat Academy Testimonial
Goat Academy Testimonial
I have been part of the Goat Academy trading course with Felix and his team since February. As a professional Wealth Manager with many years of investment experience, I came into the course with high expectations and wanted something that would genuinely add to my existing knowledge.
Thanks to Felix and his excellent team of mentors, including Dominic Graham, together with the fantastic support from Angelique and the wider back-office team, I have significantly accelerated my trading knowledge and, importantly, my confidence.
The course has helped me develop a much clearer understanding of when to buy, when to sell, how to manage risk and how to better understand my own risk tolerance as a trader. It has given me a more disciplined and structured approach to trading alongside the investment experience I already had.
I would highly recommend Goat Academy to anyone who takes their wealth seriously and genuinely wants to learn how to trade properly, manage risk and make more informed decisions.
A great team, a great learning experience, and one that I am very happy to recommend.
I can’t thank the GOAT Academy enough…
I can’t thank the GOAT Academy enough for all of the support and guidance that they have provided me with. Hannah B has been instrumental in in ensuring that I have been achieving my goals. I want to thank the incredible coaches Juri, Mark and BK for sharing their knowledge and their limitless patience. This isn’t about spoon feeding but if you’re here to work you’re in the right place. Would I do it again? Absolutely!
