Pristine was co-founded by Oliver Velez although there is no mention of him on their site. At one point he was thrown out as CEO, then came back etc... Google Oliver Velez to see what shady dealings and characters he's been up to. He's been partners with Charlie Vaccaro in several companies that each folded without refunding most of the members' money, and they started a new company. There's Velez Capital management, HLV Trading, Team Trading, Extreme Trading.
Also have a look here:

Thanks Pete
think I will give it a miss and not be risking even $1 or card details !!
Oliver was thrown out of Pristine in 2008 for his shady dealings and now has nothing to do with the company.
I have tried both live daytrading rooms the Pristine Pristine Method Trading Room (PMTR) and the Pristine Prop Room.
Personnaly I prefere the later because of SAMI the lead moderator and the style with climatic setups and so on. For my style this works much better than the PMTR room with lead moderator Paul Lange.
But be aware, you will have some downdays and some updays following the suggestions postet in these rooms. And I saw 4-5 plays stopped out alone from Paul. So please don't think their "everyday we are in the green..." is true.
You can learn something in both rooms, but they are not really professional from the equipment (often something doesn't work) and their training skills. Even if you have some TPM1+ TMP2 (now called ATM) education, some plays are not clear...
In the PMTR there is Jared Wesley, he is a big mouth with much selling power, but his performance in the real market (breakout + breakdowns) is not consistent ...
Its like everywhere I have seen - If they would have an excellent performance in the daytrading market, why should they online train ?
And beside, the explanations are not very good, they are not skilled educators.
So they are not professional traders nor professional educators....
If you know somebody, pls tell me, til now I havened found anybody...

Come on Pat, how long have you been around? The answer to "Is <Insert Vendor Here> any good?" is always the same.

the training from Pristine TPM1 und ATM (former TPM2) is very interesting and there are many good concepts and valid ideas behind.
When you watch them life trading then you see, that this Pristine training is not enough to get profitable in daytrading. It could be one step in the right direction, but the results in their online trading rooms with the founder of this concepts are lacking of practical execution in real time markets.
Its then up to you to convert the theoretical knowlege to be profitable in the markets. And the kick-off from Pristine may be the first 10%.....
