Any more information on these folks from Apiary Fund? I got an email from Price Headly, Big Trends for an invitation to the orientation. Don't want to get involved in any programs that don't deliver.

Can you tell me how you feel about Apiary Fund? Do you still believe they are a good investment? I need to make my decision soon and I am not sure what to do. Any help would be appreciated.

I have made much more than my origional enrollment fee back by simply trading my account along with the moves Shawn makes.

I have also gone to meet the team in thier office in Utah. I wanted to check things out as much as possible and be sure they do actually exist! Turns out they are all great people and very accessable to their interns through email or telephone. I read a comment on here about the office being in a town home. It is actually in an office complex of several free-standing buildings. One building has a realestate office, an insurance company and the Apiary Fund office, etc. It was actually pretty cool, I got to check out the trading room where they trade and teach the classes from. I think they have a great business model and I'm glad they are willing to teach us what they know, it's worth much more than the enrollment fee.

One person commented they don't have a receptionist and they thought it was unprofessional. I don't know about you but I prefer to have a direct line to the people I need to speak with. This way I don't leave a message with a secratry and hope she doesn't forget to give the message to the right person. I have several different phone numbers all direct to the desk that the person sits, plus cell phone numbers of some.

Over all, I understand the scepticism, with all the scams and criminals in cyberspace it's good to be cautious. That's why I went to the offices and met with them in person. I can assure you they are legit and you will make money if you follow thier system. I have even paid the enrollment fee for several of my friends to get into it aswell. I'm that sure of it...

Good luck to you and I hope this helps. If you do enroll, tell them Dirt Rider sent you, I will have a long relationship with these guys, I hope you do to and maybe we will meet up at a trading event one day!

Can you tell me where your at with Apiary? Are you making any money and have they funded your account yet?



I signed up with Apiary approx. 2 months ago and can see things getting so much better with my trading but I really only wanted access to their money... lol.. anyways, I guess I didn't know what I didn't know but so glad to learn better risk management. yikes... who would of thought... Anyways, I am glad I found this forum of other Traders to communicate with as sometimes it feels very lonely out here trading by ones self. [/QUOTE]

How much do Apiary Traders make?

You're expected to make 100 / day on a 1,000 account?

Good luck with that.

it for what it is worth. I only signed up a week ago. If they ever
fund me I'll let you know.
So it is now March, how is the trading going? I am thinking of signing up & would love to hear from more people who are with them or know of someone who is?

Hi, I'd like to hear from those who completed the Apiary training and are now managing the money for some time. As I can see, there's more of us

My initial thoughts: Making 100/day on 1000 account is a death wish. The max 50:1 leverage is still too high. Even 5:1 would be too high. All-in-all it seems like folks at Apiary are selling courses for one-time fee $1000 and then for $100/month so called technology fee. I don't know. If I was going to train a bunch of ppl who are supposed to trade MY money, I'd do it for less. Anyway, isn't it a bit strange that on Level I you start with $1000 account and the course fee is in fact $1000?

People who make these quotes obviously have no experience with Apiary at all.

Let me give you my back ground with them. I got started last June. I was funded last October, with 2500 dollars. That is their money not mine. I can tell you that they are the real deal. I am expected to be profitable (obviously). The first month when I was funded I made $127.56. Then low and behold I got a check in the mail about 2 weeks later for $76.54. The next two months I lost money and was under the original 2500 dollars. The last 3 months of the year I have been profitable, and have talked with them they are preparing to fund me at a level 1.

They don't have a daily target, obviously there are daily, weekly goals, but if I don't they haven't taken their money away from me. So I would agree with "club" and "ptaczek" that IF that WERE the expectation, then yes that would not be favorable for anyone. But I can say from personal experience that ANYONE WHO DOESN'T GET FUNDED WITH THESE GUYS IT IS THEIR OWN FAULT and no one else's.

I would imagine if I were in their shoes that everyone probably thinks they are the best trader in the world. And if you just give them 100k of their money then they will prove it to you. How stupid do you think these guys are? I wouldn't give a dime of my money to any poor sucker that tells me how good they are until they PROVE it. I can honestly say that if you are too cheap to pay 1000 bucks to learn a proven system where they put up their money at their risk ONCE you prove yourself. Then you deserve to lose your money.

I just love these forums where people who have no experience with a company talk like they are experts on it. So take it from someone who has been there. These guys are everything that they claim to be. This is just one person's humble option.
