Student Testimonials - I.P.A (Paul Devine)

"If you want to see how the market “ really “ works, this class is a must.
Eye opening to say the least. Get a glimpse behind the smoke and mirrors we are shown.
In my 6 years of trading and investing, I was taught many different reasons why price action does what it does.
This class however reveals the truth behind the moves we see each and every day, and the reasons behind the moves.
Free yourself from previous views and constraints of the market and escape the “ WALL STREET “ matrix for good.
This class will reward your time and effort way beyond what you think is possible."

"I had been learning to trade full time for about 2 years when Paul introduced me to ICT. At that point, When he told me that this skill set was price action only, I was excited, because I was already moving in that direction. When I started to see for myself how well it worked, which didn’t take very long, I was elated. Not to be overdramatic, but I’ve literally shed tears of relief a couple of times at how much easier and clear this type of trading is. I used to feel like I was trying to run alongside a speeding train that I was looking to jump on, and hanging on for dear life until I was ready to jump off. The way that I am trading now, I’m anticipating trade entries long before they happen, and exiting at very precise points. Since beginning to trade with an understanding of the algorithmic patterns, my losses are fewer and much smaller, my wins are much more profitable. The concepts are simple once you’ve learned and assimilated them, but there are many layers, and it takes time and dedication to work through the material. Paul has spent a lot of time going through all of the ICT content, in addition to already having a deep understanding of the markets. I never would have been able to sort it out without his guidance, and the assistance of the traders in our group. He has helped us to create practices that anchor what we’re learning in a way that helps us really take ownership of ICT in our own trading. If anyone asks me about trading I now tell them the only way to go is ICT and his smart money concepts. However, it’s easy to get lost in the videos if you’re trying to go through them alone. We’re essentially learning an entire language here. Paul is an amazing and caring teacher, and I feel so blessed that he has given us the opportunity to learn this with him. If you are set on becoming a profitable trader this is absolutely the way to go."

"Everyone has heard the saying, “it’s not what you know, it’s what you don’t know you don’t know.” Once I started this class, I learned how much I didn’t know about price action, why the market really moves and how. And it’s all right there in the charts plain as day. It’s just that I was not trained to see and understand it. Now, after a lot of practice and Paul’s help along the way, I can anticipate how the market will move before it does much of the time and now, I understand why. Over time, it gets easier and easier, and I get better and better. I can’t imagine not knowing this now."

"This class is very important for those wanting to progress past the button pushing and really understand what makes the market move. You will speak the language of the market and will start to think like the market. Paul is an excellent teacher and the opportunity to learn from the work of a seasoned trading professional with over 30 years of experience is outstanding. I highly recommend this course.

"Every trading book I have ever read tells me the market is random and I have only my best guess as to the direction of the market using indicators to give me a sense of the direction of price. I thought my indicators were good. I was starting to let go of some of my fear and anxiety that I had built up watching the “randomness of price action”. But with this randomness, I never fully trusted myself to be in a trade for a longer period of time. I was taking small losses, but also, small wins. I was never going to make a living on the way I was trading. I soon found out that there is a better way to understand the market and Price movement. I learned from Coach Paul that there is a way to read price action just by watching the candles, without the dependance on indicators, there is a way to predict the highest probability of the direction of the market.  Wait!! Isn’t price action random??? No!
Coach Paul has started a class called Institutional Price Action (I.P.A). This advanced program incorporates ICT Mentorship learning.  Coach Paul is an exceptional instructor who is invested in his student’s success. He has taken this very complex series and simplified it so I could understand how the market really moves! I followed Coach Paul’s instructions, I did the homework he assigned, I asked questions. Coach Paul taught me that the market is not random, but efficient and how to understand the efficiency of the market. I have learned that it isn’t necessary for me to trade every day. I am empowered by my knowledge of price movement. I understand how the market is really moving and what moves it!
My trading is now very precise and calculated, and this makes me calm. Trading is now Fun!
Thank you Coach Paul!!"

"I remember being at the Edgewater Summit in October 2022…the amazing executive team along with the attendees were brainstorming ideas about future educational opportunities. I thought to myself, if the big guys (institutional funds and banks) are the ones that move the market, wouldn’t it be beneficial to have a look into their way of trading. Well, this class answered my prayers. The group along with Paul took a deep dive into what the market movers (mostly algorithms created by the “big guys”) seek when they want to move the market. WARNING: this is a paradigm shifting class and will challenge everything you know about the markets. However, if you put in the time to learn the concepts taught in this class and practice charting them, you will never wonder why the market moved the way it did. You will have a perfectly good explanation for it. I am immensely grateful for the knowledge obtained and will continue to put these concepts into practice."

IPA class has been a game changer! If you’re interested in how to anticipate where price action is going, this class is where you want to be. My trading is becoming more consistent and I'm more confident when placing trades. I have learned that there is nothing random about the market. Class is a lot of fun, Paul is an excellent instructor and in true Edgewater fashion, grads and other classmates help each other along the way. Excellent class!

Paul's class on institutional price action is a very in-depth study in the way the markets move and why. If you have ever wondered why price went in the opposite direction of what the indicators were telling you then this class is for you. I highly recommend.

The Institutional Price Action (IPA) class has exceeded my expectations in the
instruction and the content. I highly recommend that every trader take this class to
understand how and why the market really moves.
Â
Although the core content taught is available online, there is no doubt that taking
this class made my understanding of it possible. Paul is an amazing, knowledgeable,
and patient instructor that breaks down each step clearly. He is always willing to
answer questions and to promote self-discovery through questions of his own.
           Â
The eye-opening content of the class will change the way you look at charts and
trade forever. I have been trading for 14 years, with fair results, and I have finally been
taught what really happens behind the scenes with the institutional price movement. I
can now see what is happening in the market and anticipate where the price might go.
Only now, can I really feel confident that I can be a successful trader.
Â
What I have been taught for years is exactly what was making my trades fail. I
wish I had learned these concepts first! I am looking forward to the next phase of my
education within the IPA class. Eternally grateful!

This is the most important class you will ever take for futures trading.  In this course, you will learn how to read the charts in real time. You will become skilled in recognizing the patterns for optimal trade entries to give you the greatest probability of success. You will gain confidence realizing that you are moving in the direction of Institutional (“Smart Money") Traders.  Paul is a fantastic teacher. He has a way of breaking down very complex concepts in easy to understand language.  In a step-by-step process, following his directions and doing the homework, you will build your own skills. When you finish this course, you will wonder how you ever traded without this knowledge.  Take this class. You will never regret it!

By now you have learned how the basics of the Stock Market and Options Trading work. You have learned how to read and track lagging indicators. You have learned how to place an Iron Condor trade and how it will payoff 70+ percent of the time. By now you realize that the indicators do not predict which way the market may or may not move in the future, and that when the Iron Condor fails to hold, the penalty is severe.
Â
This is where Institutional Price Action (IPA) comes in. In IPA, we learned that there was more to the market that just watching lagging indicators and pushing trade buttons. We learned how the Market Makers and the Smart Money (Institutional Players), using manipulation and high speed algorithms, move the market to their advantage. We learned that to be a successful trader; you have to think like the Smart Money, and trade like the Smart Money.
Â
Our knowledge of what moves the market is based on the works of “the Inner Circle Trader.” These works are based on the goals and methods of the Market Makers, and the Algorithms that they use. They are detailed and complex, and can often be confusing. That is why it is important to have an experienced teacher and coach guide you through the learning process.
Â
Paul Devine has been studying the principles of ICT for many years. He has the ability to boil down the complexities and details of the ICT concepts into concise and understandable language. Paul will guide you through a very exact and planned curriculum. You will soon begin to see the market the same way the algorithms see it, and you will soon be able to predict with a high degree of certainty where the market is likely to go. You will begin to see the market in the future rather than just in the past as before.
Â
You will also learn to trade Futures Contracts. Futures Trading is a level playing field where the gains and losses are based on the same scale, unlike the Options Trading that you are familiar with where there is a 10 fold penalty for losing.
Â
I highly recommend Paul’s IPA class for those who want to know how the market works and how to predict how it will move in the future. Paul is an outstanding coach and teacher, and is easy to reach. The classes are complete with reading assignments, in-class reviews, in-class discussions, and homework.

If you are interested in furthering your skills in trading, this is the class for you.
