I am a former Swiss trading student of Nicola Hollender and would like to share my course experience, thoughts, and views with you.
On her website, Nicola Hollender offers two-month trading courses online from Dubai at a price of approximately 9,400.00 Swiss Francs
(equivalent to approximately 11,500.00 USD) and approximately 10,340.00 Swiss Francs (equivalent to approximately 12,700.00 USD).
Unfortunately, there are some indications and criticisms that show that the course is extremely overpriced and the price tag of these courses seems unjustified.
Nicola Hollender charges an exorbitant amount for her two-month course and mentoring program. Regarding the theory portion in the first half of the course, it is,
on the one hand, very general about the stock market, finance, and trading, and on the other hand, you can find most of the theory topics available for free in reputable trading forums and websites. The trading community is rich in shared knowledge, and with a little research, you can find all the theoretical knowledge mentioned without spending a fortune. The same applies to installing the trading software in the first month of the course. Furthermore, I didn't find the compiled theory portion particularly helpful for this course.
In addition to the costs, the quality of the instruction offered also leaves much to be desired. Numerous clients report that Nicolas's lessons are far too few and too short, and that her mentoring is minimal to nonexistent. The chosen teaching format is Zoom calls and WhatsApp. For such a high fee, one would expect more comprehensive, individualized advice and support, especially in such a demanding area as trading.
The coach should be much more attentive and dedicated to each individual student.
While Nicola boasts of some payouts from prop firms, this doesn't prove her reputable or consistent trading record.
A successful trading career, especially one that justifies such high mentoring fees, should be backed by at least a decade of consistent profitability and proven trading strategies. Without these prerequisites, any claims of expertise are dubious at best. Furthermore, there should be references and reviews from a large number of satisfied, successful graduates—in other words, a representative sample.
The trading industry is unfortunately rife with fake gurus who exploit inexperienced traders.
These individuals often market themselves through flashy websites, testimonials, and lifestyle portrayals designed to entice people to pay for overpriced courses.
They capitalize on the dream of financial independence and promise shortcuts and secrets that simply don't exist.
Before committing to a paid course or mentoring program, do thorough research. Look for reviews and feedback from various sources. Check the mentor's track record.
Take advantage of the wealth of free resources. Websites like TradingView, Forex Factory, and various YouTube channels offer high-quality training and indicators for free.
Engage in trading communities on forums and social media. They offer valuable insights, support, and recommendations based on shared experiences.
Be wary of trading courses from self-proclaimed trading experts like Ms. Nicola Hollender, who charge exorbitant fees for a very short, superficial trading course that provides no real value or added value.
High fees don't automatically mean high quality, and often the best training is available through freely available resources and active community engagement.
Unfortunately, the trading course mentioned didn't meet my expectations or those of most of my fellow students. While the provider has developed a lucrative source of income through course sales, you'll likely be stuck with your trading course expenses and won't be able to recoup them through good trading.
Stay informed, remain skeptical, and carefully consider what you're willing to spend your hard-earned money on !
Happy trading !
