So Felix Prehn turned to running his own business, but even still he was a glorified employee who had to show up in order to get paid. He turned to trading when he was hospitalised because of a back injury that came from chronic stress and overwork, but the worst part was that it would’ve cost $50,000 to operate on… Money he didn’t have at the time. At that point, his income was completely cut off because he couldn’t punch in the hours to get paid, yet his bills continued to climb.
Having no choice, Felix used his network and experience as an investment banker to learn how to trade from his hospital bed so he could at least make a side income to pay his bills. Before he knew it, within 10 months he had completely replaced his business income (and his previous corporate salary) with the income that came from his trades. So instead of having to wake up early, clock in, and get paid based on the amount of hours he worked… Felix was finally able to wake up feeling like every day was a weekend, have full control of his schedule, and make a comfortable income working a fraction of the hours he did as a lawyer and banker.
In 2020, Felix and his adopted Golden Retriever, Winston, started a YouTube channel called Felix and Friends to educate people struggling because of job loss, hour cuts, and income losses because of the pandemic to create an extra stream of income through trading for a few hours a week
Since then, he’s grown the channel to over 100,000 subscribers and has taught over 9000 students inside of GOAT Academy with his team of ex investment bankers how they can create more freedom, provide better for their families, and live life on their terms by replacing their 40-60 hour work weeks as corporate employees for becoming their own boss and “working” part time hours.
Today, Felix aims to provide real financial education that schools and universities have never provided to over 1 million people so they can stop getting taken advantage of by the corporate and banking systems, and instead, take back control of their time and finances to become better sons, daughters, brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, friends, and community leaders.

When I first joined Goat Academy, I was very excited at the thoughts of learning some investment strategies that would help me understand the financial freedom that I had heard Felix rave about so often on the YouTube videos. My first several weeks on the Goat Academy site were like a roller coaster. Sometimes, I would understand parts of the videos and other times I was completely lost. Even the basic terminology was unfamiliar to me and I realized I
was in over my head. It seemed like everyone understood the lessons except me. I didn’t even know what questions to ask during the group learning events.
One day, I saw a newly formatted website with the heading “Road map.” I was once again hopeful that I could persevere and push through. When I restarted the basic videos, I was surprised at what I had already picked up along the way but also concerned that my time was running out and I still did not know the basics of investing. The redesign of the website was very helpful and then I realized I had someone who could walk this journey beside me. Her name is Vanda. She had reached out previously but I did not understand how she could help me. I didn’t even understand most of the investing language much less what questions to ask about my current struggles. Finally, I had a zoom meeting with her. I explained my big picture situation, that I wanted to learn and continue in the program but just didn’t know how to pick up and move forward. I had felt very alone in my journey to this point and didn’t know how to evaluate my situation and restart at a more effective pace and with more specific direction. I was delighted at Vanda’s ability to meet me where I was. She carefully listened to all the details and seemed too quickly understand my situation. I felt heard, respected and valued as a student at the Goat Academy. She guided me to appropriate resources that have been very helpful in getting me back on track. Shout out to Troy who also quickly helped me understand there was still hope for me. Vanda’s genuine concern for my success and wellbeing has made a tremendous impact on my learning journey. Thank you Vanda for your support and helping me get plugged back in to the Goat Academy. Your knowledge, kindness and encouragement is greatly appreciated!
Thank you Felix for your genuine concern for others. It is hard to find people like you who want to share their vast knowledge and continue to grow themselves in often difficult but fulfilling situations. I love your Youtube videos packed with information, humor and heartfelt commitment to serving others. Thank you for seeking out support staff Like Vanda, Troy and Elliott.
Warm regards,
Janine
This academy provides classes about trading, investing, technical analysis and risk management. In addition to the video-recorded classes, there are daily zoom calls that provide daily, current market and sector analysis. I've been following the markets for decades and this academy filled in the blank spots of my knowledge so that I could put it all together and finally make money. I have also gained confidence now that I have a solid financial plan that fits my personality. I was nervous with the purchase price but just after a couple of months I feel that it is well worth it.
An excellent platform offering a wealth of useful knowledge, countless training courses, videos, live sessions and, above all, excellent coaches for one-to-one sessions, as well as fantastic, personalised support. I’m impressed.
I’ve been working as an options trader for many years. The opportunity to consult with the experienced coaches, whom I meet twice a week, is therefore particularly valuable.
Very highly recommend! If you’re on the fence about joining, get off the fence and join and you will be very grateful later. The on boarding team, the coaches, the one on one sessions and the overall support are phenomenally good. I joined on May 19, 2026, and with the tools, coaching and support I’m already showing a positive return… And that was tabulated the day the market went down! Again, very highly recommend because this program is worth its weight in gold!!
They have a structured approach to learning and they were able to articulate it. Each step in the process was described and I believe their goals are my goals, and, it is achievable.
Over the past 3 months, I have been able to 5x my rate of return under the tutelage of the coaches. My tuition for the Goat Academy has been the greatest investment I've made for my finances, and I would recommend it to anyone very serious about learning the market. I would not recommend skipping out on the coaching. Although Goat Academy has been an excellent investment for me, I have several issues with the quality, quantity, and organization of the recorded content. I believe this could be dramatically improved and easily multiply the course's educational value. Despite this, I have found radical success and do not think this weakness warrants a lower rating. If you are willing to set aside a couple of hundred hours to learn, the Goat Academy is the best place I have found to do so.
A life-changing course! I started with absolutely no trading experience, and now I have a clear understanding of what I'm looking at on the charts and how to approach the markets with confidence.
The course provides a wealth of valuable information, and the support from the entire team has been exceptional. My CSM, Hannah, has been incredibly helpful, always providing guidance, answering questions.
All of the coaches I've interacted with have been knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely invested in helping students succeed . I highly recommend Goat Academy to anyone looking to learn trading in a structured and supportive environment.
The Goat Academy has many educational programs from beginner basics to advance strategies. I was looking for better tools and knowledge around option trading and the Goat Academy has provided it. Over the last 6months the overall program has been re-organized and is much more user friendly. Their new CSM (Customer Service Team) has really improved the student experience.
The knowledgable instructors and community website truly enhance your experience in learning investing and trading. I've been through the whole program over the last 2 years and I'm still increasing my knowledge set.
Felix, Elliott, Angelique, and team are sincerely helping the students develop financial life skills.
The theory is simple and the course work in itself is not a code to decipher. I think the greatest value comes from the time allowed to apply the knowledge and hearing from multiple advisors and mentors within the Goat Academy.
I chose to include a couple of one on one calls a week with members of the Goat Academy team. repetitively trading over the duration of the course no matter your chosen level of risk when investing, exercising learned ways to filter and select potential stocks, becomes muscle memory.
I will say the one on one calls i really appreciate like a yoga class that gets me into the gym…😅😜. personally feeling accountable to show up. LUV yah Carlos Arias (Coach) & My Big Breezy Brew Mark Putrino (Coach).
USING THE POWWGGRRR OF A PLAN; Has given me better consistent results. There is a lot more structure within the course that is helped understood and guided by a Client Success Manager. I'm sure my own contact, Hannah Bootes 🫵😅👌, would love to see me more consistent with my log work to help with my progress. My consistent gains do give her confidence and as with all I have interacted with from the educational team in the Goat Academy, always ready to help shape your own strategies based on logical processes.
First time in my life studying about trading and investing and I find Goat academy on Youtube. From the first day I got help and was calmy informed about everything I was happy to learn from the best, who already worked in Bank and wall street and after 4 months I really glad I join, cause I learn so much that I will teach my future children and family about money. Recommend for everyone to join and learn from the best people in the world about investing and swing trading.
I reviewed several stock training programs and took a gamble on this one. I'm so glad I did! This is the one! I've been in the program for two months and I've learned so much. I've learned more in two months than I would have on my own in two years! The program is well structured and I really need that type of structure to keep me on target. All the teachers/trainers/coaches that I've learned from so far have been great (Elliott, Byung, Jesus, Matt, Guillermo, Patrick, Carlos, Daniel, Agustin). And my customer representative (Hannah) stays in touch with me to make sure I'm making progress and addresses any issues I have. They're wonderful people! You have to do the work and do it consistently but all the tools and teachers are there. Don't waste time! Take advantage!
OK, WOW — where do I even begin?
This program has delivered so much more than I ever anticipated. One of my favorite parts is listening to the new students during our “Onboarding Q&A with a CSM for New Students.” So many of them say almost the exact same thing I did after my first couple of meetings: “This feels so overwhelming — the amount of information is like I’m drowning in it — but it all makes sense.” I always smile when I hear that, because I remember my own CSM encouraging me that if I stuck with the plan, everything would eventually come together.
The first major benefit for me was stopping the financial bleeding. I was doing exactly what Felix had warned about — picking a winning trade, watching it go up, and then riding it all the way back down. The Goat Academy brings together a diverse group of excellent trainers who teach practical concepts and tools covering everything from stock selection and risk management to protecting profits and, most importantly, trading psychology.
They help you avoid common costly mistakes, like trying to catch a falling knife (buying more as a stock drops), or revenge trading after a loss. In today’s world, it’s easy to get sold a “bag of magic beans” on social media and jump into trades with blind conviction. This program teaches you how to do proper due diligence instead.
To be clear, the Goat Academy won’t just hand you a winning list of stocks to bet on. They won’t tell you where to place your roulette wheel bet at the casino. What they do provide is professional-level insight, better decision-making frameworks, appropriate tools, and proven ways to manage and limit your risk.
One of the most enjoyable aspects for me has been the community. The interaction between coaches and students is genuinely encouraging and supportive. I was especially inspired watching one of the coaches build a Stock Trading Log program with AI. Even though it didn’t work perfectly for me at first, that experience motivated me to work with the same AI agent myself. Through persistent effort, we solved the issues, and now I can successfully import my Fidelity data and generate meaningful statistics.
That success gave me the confidence to start building my own stock screener — something I never would have attempted before. It’s been a fun and eye-opening project.
Before joining, I took a heavy loss on a silver play. While I’m still bullish on precious metals long-term, I’ve since rebalanced my portfolio with better allocation between mining stocks and other assets. I want to benefit from the rebound, but I refuse to risk another devastating drawdown. As the saying goes: “Markets can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent.”
Thanks to the Goat Academy, I am not only recovering but am now able to see a path to significant returns and moving well beyond where I started.
Thank you, Goat Academy.
There are not enough good things to say about the Goat Academy platform, program and processes, but I'll offer a sampler... Joining the Academy starts with meeting a Client Success Manager (CSM) whose prime directive is to provide remarkably reassuring and on-going support throughout the course. Hannah, my CSM, is an excellent human being and nothing short of superb in pointing me to the Academy's framework and giving guidance when needed. Felix's philosophy and commitment to providing people with exceptional financial education is recognizable in all aspects of the program. And the team of extraordinary coaches wow! me in every class with their knowledge, humanity, and commitment to sharing and teaching what they know. In short, yes! signing up with the Academy is definitely worth the investment!
Red Flag no. 1:
Aggressive marketing sign up ONLY* via cell phone. SO they can bombard you afterwards.
Red Flag no. 2:
No transparency about his positions - Is he even trading or is he telling his stories after the fact?
Red Flag no. 3:
Source of wealth (if any)?
Red Flag no. 4:
Strategically suggests wealth/success and experience in his videos - but never proves it! Classic manipulation techniques
Red Flag no. 5:
Repeatedly mentions the Gold Rush 'shovel and pick sellers' were the ppl who made the money - Thats exactly what He is doing! Selling his courses, coaching and trading widgets.
Red Flag no. 6:
References his Wall Street coaches who worked for Bear Stearn - they went bust!. Why would you want to pay to be mentored by them?!
***** - 5 star marketer and content creator. Well done on that
Level up my trading and protecting my capital.
All the coaches has a lot of experince which they are ready to share anytime.
Hannah whom is my CSM and she is very helpful and very understanding.
I've been working in the Wall Street Protocol program from the Goat Academy for ~5 months now. My knowledge of the market and how stocks work has grown tremendously. Working with the coaches and delving into the depth of available content has been highly educational. And Felix continues to add tools and content regularly. It's been a fun journey!
I joined GOAT Academy about two months ago after following Felix on YouTube for roughly three months. To be honest, I was skeptical at first because it was a significant investment. I also come from the coaching and mentoring world in another investment industry (multifamily real estate), and over the years I’ve found that many companies simply do not deliver on the promises they make.
I can genuinely say that GOAT Academy has exceeded my expectations. They do not just give 100%, they give 110%, and I have been extremely impressed with the overall experience.
The program provides a tremendous amount of value through extensive training modules, 5 to 10 live Zoom trainings each week (with recordings available if you miss them), and highly knowledgeable coaches who truly care about your progress and learning. You can tell they have a genuine vested interest in helping members succeed rather than simply selling a program.
On top of that, their customer support has been outstanding. I've had the pleasure of working with Ella, and she has been there supporting me every step of the way since day one. That level of service has been refreshing and has really stood out to me.
If you're looking to shorten your learning curve, gain clarity, and learn from a team that genuinely wants to see you succeed, I would highly recommend GOAT Academy.
Jeremy clearly explained all aspects of the trading program and mentorship offered by Goat Academy. He was very professional, positive, and easily answered all of my inquiries. He was patient enough and willing to entertain a second sales call with me in order for me to consider my decision. I greatly appreciate that!
Eladio and I had a 15 minute one on one call. It was enought time to generally go over his methodoloco and how he what kind of options he trades. Since I do options trading, it was interesting for me to get his insight. He is very knowledgeable and willing to help with trading skills.
