Entertaining but not very educational
"The show is really entertaining if you are into trading which i will assume that you are since you are here at Investimonials :) It's a sneak peak into hedge business but not very educational and I would have liked to have seen more of the training side of things. How long was their training, what Read more...

Fairly good portrayal of the emotional side of trading
"I live outside the UK and I struggled for ages to get hold of this series. I even emailed Lex van Dam after hitting a blank link to buy the DVD on his site.

Good concept, but too short.
"Lex Van Dam basically attempts to recreate the old turtle traders scenario by selecting members of the public to learn his trading style for 2 weeks and then see how they do with up to £500k. The show was mildly entertaining, but felt like it ended too soon after only 3 episodes. Unfortunately fo Read more...
"Just finished the series...it's awesome. To see how ordinary people become traders and live the experience is great. It shows you different angles, the novice and the managers perspective and explains how people live through the emotional states involved with trading. I wish there were more shows l Read more...
