How I Review ITPM Courses

What I review

I only call something a review if I completed it myself.

I completed IPLT, PTM 2.0 and the original POTM, then three months of online mentoring with Anthony Iser. ITPM has since released POTM 2.0. I have not done that version. All four courses are compared side by side in my ITPM course reviews.

I have not completed PFTM, so it is covered as an overview of what ITPM says the course includes, not a review. It has no rating.

When the reviews were made

I wrote my reviews and recorded my video reviews in 2023.

In October 2026 I added written follow-ups, after roughly four years of trading. Each review page shows the original year and the update date separately. I don’t rewrite the original reviews. I add to them, so you can see what I thought then and what I think now.

What I look at

What the course teaches. How it is structured. How hard it is to absorb. What it costs. Who it suits and who it doesn’t. And whether I still use it in my own trading today.

Ratings

Each course I completed has a star rating out of five. It is my own overall judgement of the course. It is not a score from a formula, and it is not set or approved by ITPM.

My relationship with ITPM

I am an ITPM graduate and an affiliate. I paid full price for the courses I completed.

I earn a commission when someone buys a course through my links, at no extra cost to them. I am not employed by ITPM. My views on the courses are based on having completed them myself, and I point out the limitations as well as the strengths.

Every discount link on this site is labelled as an affiliate link.

My results

Where I mention my own trading, I link to my broker-reported performance. It comes from Interactive Brokers statements, and a redacted statement is published. It is self-published and has not been independently audited.

My results are individual. They are not typical, and they are not a guarantee of what anyone else will achieve. Completing ITPM does not guarantee profitable trading.
