Have you ever noticed a phenomenon—some trading mentors in this industry almost never face the risk of losing money.

When the market rises, they claim to have predicted it accurately. When the market falls, they immediately shift their tone to talk about shakeouts and trial and error. Did your account blow up? The problem lies in your mindset and lack of execution. Anyway, the numbers in your account will never be deducted from them.

You experience drawdowns, endure volatility, and face the blow of liquidation in the market, while they are watching a number in the background—how much more commission they have earned. It seems like you are learning trading, but in fact, you are helping to build their business model. This model is quite straightforward: the more you trade, the more fees they collect. Whether you profit or lose, they don't care; they only care that you don't stop.

So you will definitely hear these words: "High trading frequency is the key to rapid growth."

Damn, that hits too close to home. This is just a disguised pyramid scheme; the mentor always wins.

According to my analysis, this set of scripts is just a fee harvesting machine; anyway, there's no loss whether you win or lose... Truly impressive.

Really, I've seen this trick too many times. The mentor is never wrong; it's always your execution that is at fault.

Mentors never lose, we always lose. How can this deal be so ruthless?

That's incredible. The mentor never loses money; only the students get liquidated. How is this deal calculated?

Haha, isn't this exactly what I complain about every day... Transaction fee mentors are really amazing, only concerned with harvesting profits and not caring about your life or death.

Really, these mentors are all following the same pattern, taking advantage of people wave after wave.
