Apiary Funds

ptaczek · Apr 6, 2012, 7:18am

At last somebody with some more information. Thank you for your answer HarrisonMarianne. From my experience, ppl all over the internet tend to exaggerate and throw dirt on companies for miniscule reasons.
So if I understand it right, you'll get educated by them and then you're going to trade their system? Isn't it possible to prove myself with my system and trade their capital?

Tnx.

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.

don't know anything about these guys but when new posters register just to defend something then whatever it is they're defending is quite likely to be complete spank....

I have never traded with this firm just to be upfront. But what I can tell you is that the invite to the webinar included a phone call about 50 minutes ahead of it to remind me. (Good thing I forgot about it, as most of these things are scams at best.) None the less, I thought that I would have a go and see what it is all about.

When I got to the presentation, it took about 70 minutes for the guy to come out and explain the "value" of the training that they offer. While they don't want to make any money off of you, the wish to recoup their costs. (Odd really, considering they say that you are a profit machine afterwards and they are willing to fund you and take a small cut for it.) The cost is $1,275 is memory serves me right. ( * Maybe $1,295) Either way, it would have been nice to know that about 65 minutes ahead of time. They do present other educational services that they were interested in "partnering with" but found them to be far too expensive so they thought they would just do it themselves. One was $7000......

I can't say they are a scam, but I certainly don't like companies that waste 70 minutes of my time to sell me something. If it takes you that long, something is rotten in the state of Denmark......

The first 2 pages of this thread seemed to be posted by shills for them. (new members with 1st post, 2nd post) and by page four I hear they want $1,200 to $1,300 of my money to trade for them. My thoughts are that they lure in a bunch of newbies, take their money in course and other fees and if anybody does happen to be a trading star they return some of the money they make for them. Sounds like a good deal to be on the
other side of.

News about Apiary Fund?

Thank you Marianne, I also signed up & whilst at the beginning I was a little sceptical (which is always good). They do provide lots of training - the amount you do & how your progress is really up to you. Lots of webinars & live trading to watch every day. Have learned a lot about MT4 & learn more all the time. The forums are also very good & there are a number of very knowledgeable people involved. Layne Rasmussen I have found particularly helpful & sincere. Compared with most other firms they are very reasonably priced. Quite a few are starting to offer similar deals but generally charge a lot more. My only complaint is they can be a little slow in replying to my emails (I don't ring - different time zone) & I think they still have a few teething problems. But the concept is good. I look forward to becoming a professional trader. Reward is equal to the effort.
