Trading Template - Mike Aston Avis 176

Thank you Mike for explaining your process and psychology .I can't express enough how simple you made the entry and exit. I also like how you emphasized on the psychology of trading .I think that is the most important aspect of trading .One of the biggest takeaways for me was learning how to approach trading with a structured mindset .Appreciate your help so much. Nice skill set to have for sure !

I’m gonna do my best here to be completely transparent about my experience, because when I was thinking about buying this course I was reading through all these reviews and trying to discern if this is legit or not. If you’re anything like me you might be thinking “are these reviews fake” “does Mike just have a few good trades every now and then and then use those to make it look like he’s a trading master but in reality his income is from this course” and the heaviest one of them all (for me) was “is Mike professing Christianity just to reel me in and get me to trust him to buy his course?”

I called Mike on the phone to get to know him a little bit and he seemed like a nice guy and I didn’t have any red flags go up so I gave it a few days to think and pray about and ended up pulling the trigger because I came to the conclusion that if Mike is just trying to sell me this course then he’s literally the greatest salesman of all time and if it’s a scam at least I got scammed by a master at it…haha.

After about a month and a half into the course and a lot of text messages back and forth with Mike and a couple phone calls with him I can confidently say that Mike and this course are 100% legit. I truly believe that Mike genuinely wants the best for his students. I also believe that Mike is a genuine follower of Jesus, and God has gifted him with a lot of wisdom that he is very generous to share with others.

One last thing…if you’re getting into trading and thinking this course is going to give you some secret “strategy” or “rules” that you can just follow and you’ll be successful I can tell you trading is not like that and that’s not what this is. If it was that easy everyone would be making tons of money and AI would be controlling the stock market. Trading is a very human thing, so you can’t be a robot with it and expect to win.

I would definitely recommend this course to anyone who is serious about putting in the hard work to become a successful trader. I hope that this helps you in your decision making!

It’s a good course he sells. But his style has a tendency to drawdown against you. I’m not saying his template doesn’t work, because it does and it can work. But for me it didn’t work because I wanted to know all the other information that trading brings. When it crosses his parameters is when he engages in an instrument but for me I needed to have more information on why we were engaging at that time. So for a simplified approach and not wanting to know all the trading terms and indicators that you can use, the course may be for you. Understanding different timeframes and managing risk is what IMO this course lacks. But this course did help my trading journey. Thanks for reading

Mikes teaching and simplified trading strategy in this course is unlike any other. It challenges your thinking and confronts the problems any trader may have. Do what Mike teaches and you will have a change in your thinking and therefore a change in your trading and eventually you will see success. Thank you Mike for returning what you have been given and keep it the good work!

When I first discovered trading and started going down the YouTube rabbit hole, I was in awe of everyone’s success. I started dreaming about all the possibilities…

But the more I watched, the more confused I became. There were endless strategies, indicators, and “systems.” I kept asking myself if it’s this complicated, how are all these young traders driving Lamborghinis and living in penthouses? It didn’t add up. The deeper I went, the worse it got more indicators, more noise, blown prop firm accounts…

I was close to giving up on trading altogether.

Then I came across Mike and his trading template.
It was a breath of fresh air. No fluff, just straight to the point. One thing he said really stuck with me, to succeed in trading you must first learn how to lose correctly. I hadn’t heard anyone else talk like that, most weren’t even mentioning losses.

From the first video, I could see a clear plan, a structured template, and a strong focus on psychology. I committed to Mike’s 4-month course and applied everything he taught. I spent a year on demo before going live.

I’ve now been trading live for almost 6 months. There have been ups and downs, but I can feel the shift. I’m starting to understand what it means to lose correctly and how that leads to greater success over time.

I know people like to hear about results, so my best to date is $4,003 in a single day and $5,171 over three days. What I’m working toward now is consistency.

That’s why I decided to invest in Mike’s 1-on-1 mentoring. After just my first Zoom call, I already feel like I’ve made a return on that investment. Mike has a unique ability to zoom out, see the bigger picture, and quickly identify blind spots and biases I didn’t even know I had.

If you’re on the fence, don’t hesitate. One of the best feelings is knowing I only have to apply the template and nothing else, it’s like a weight off my shoulders.

The longer you wait, the more likely you are to reinforce bad habits that become harder to unlearn. Mike is a great teacher, a great listener, and exactly the kind of support I need to make trading a consistent and enjoyable part of my life.

I’m looking forward to the next four months, thanks Mike.

Excellent course. Becoming a successful trader is not an easy endeavor. It takes proper mentorship, time, and consistency . Trading template provides a solid foundation and comprehensive teaching on how to train your mind to trade. I’m so happy I found this course.

Mike Aston’s trading template is truly amazing. I learned so much about day trading, and he took my trading and my mindset to the next level. The way he trades is simple, easy to follow, and beginner-friendly; you just need to trust yourself and trust the direction he guides you in. He also incorporates faith into his videos, which I really appreciate. He’s always there to help whenever you have a question, providing guidance every step of the way. Definitely take your time to watch his videos he goes really in-depth. Watch them multiple times to catch all the little “Easter eggs” he drops throughout the course. The money you invest will multiply tenfold it’s truly life-changing, and he’s always reachable whenever you need him. I definitely recommend the trading template to anyone and everyone who’s truly aspiring to become profitable, or who is already profitable but just needs a bit more guidance.

If you are looking for clarity in your trading endeavors and or have no experience at all (you would actually have an advantage), then this program could be for you. My personal experience with Mike has been wonderful. You do have to put in the work to optimize or reformat your thinking, learn a few technical tools, and practice, practice, practice. Mike was really great at simplifying key concepts, was mindful to teach them in the correct sequence, and effective at encouraging student success. You learn at your own comfortable pace. The are an abundance of resources provided to help you explore specific concepts further in detail. I invested in the extended course option and it provided additional instructional material that was very helpful. This is a great course and is well put together.

This program is an excellent resource for anyone interested in trading, whether you are just starting out or already experienced. It is rare to find a system that is adaptable across virtually any trading vehicle and market condition.

I’ve had the opportunity not only to complete the course but also to speak directly with the instructor, and I can confidently say he is highly knowledgeable and genuinely committed to helping others succeed. The lessons are clear, well-structured, and easy to follow, with no specialized business or financial background required to fully understand the material.

I’m extremely grateful to have discovered his work and would highly recommend this program to anyone serious about improving their trading skills.

What’s concerning:

The Trustpilot review patterns (many single-review accounts, very similar positive language).

Lack of strong, independent success stories with performance verification.

Trading courses are often marketed with motivational language rather than transparent performance stats.

Thank you Mike for teaching me how to use the tools necessary to give a little and receive a lot from the market. You say “it’s wrong unless proven correct”. You have proven to me over and over that what you teach is correct. I’m so grateful to have found you. Your videos have taught me everything I need to know.

When getting into trading it’s very easy to get inundated with information. All of it seems necessary at first. Mike’s past experience enables him to teach the critical concepts of trading. He often uses metaphors to help explain difficult concepts and make them relatable. This ensures students see the big picture and not focus on minutia. This course provides the necessary tools to remove psychological barriers when trading. On top of all that, he is a Christian and genuinely cares about the progress of each individual student. All of my interactions with Mike have been nothing but positive and very professional. I highly recommend this course to anyone interested in learning to trade the correct way!

Having very limited experience with training and absolutely no training- I think this course is worth far more than what is being charged. The course was recommended to me by a friend and after going through it, I recommended it to my brother and several friends.

The thing that convinced me to move forward with the course was my conversation with Mike. He was easy to talk to but when I told him I would have to talk to my wife and let me know if we would move forward, his response was, "Sounds good, if I can help you I will. If you decide to do something else, that's fine too." I have owned several businesses and I worked in sales for a bit- no one trying to push a sale says that.

Mike makes the information easy to understand in the videos and continues to offer support afterwards.

I am very glad that I bought the course and have kept up with it. I think anyone willing to take the time to learn, study and mature will do well with this course.

To Whom It May Concern,

Before you proceed with purchasing content from Mike Aston, there are a few key points to consider:

Simplicity at Its Best: Mike’s approach is so straightforward that even a 6th grader can follow it. Remember, simplicity is the ultimate form of sophistication!

Rewire Your Thinking: The value you’re paying for isn’t just about earning more, but about transforming the way you think and approach losing.

Patience and Adaptability: If you stay patient and remain coachable, you won’t need to buy another program. The principles Mike teaches are powerful and sustainable.

A Man of Faith: Mike is a Christian, and his values of integrity and honesty shine through in everything he does.

Mike’s program was actually the second one I invested in (and half the price of the first one). The first program left me feeling overwhelmed, but Mike’s strategy is simple, repeatable, and effective. It’s a system anyone can follow, and I’ve truly appreciated the leadership he provides.

You’re in good hands. God bless.

A text I sent to Mike this month -
"Hey remember me? Your student Seeley. We talked on the phone in June. I just wanted to celebrate with you that I took my first payout from Topstep! $10,000! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and wisdom. Trading your strategy has been the best success I've had in my 3.5 years of trading. Can't thank you enough!"
Mike's training is all you need to follow in order to find success in trading. I spent years trying to teach myself on YouTube, and I had to spend a year unlearning all the bad habits I picked up. I wish I had known about The Trading Template from the very start! Mike has been trading for nearly 30 years, so you can be sure that he knows what he is talking about!

I’ve been through many trading programs, but none compare to Mike Aston’s mentorship through The Trading Template. Mike is a 30-year veteran of day trading, someone who has truly mastered the markets and, more importantly, has the heart of a teacher. He’s not just about charts and profits—he’s about changing how you think, because trading success starts in the mind.

As a faith-based mentor, Mike uniquely infuses Christian principles and scripture into his teachings. As a believer myself, I found this not only refreshing but deeply grounding. It’s rare to find someone in the trading world who openly integrates faith and purpose into such a high-stakes environment.

Mike’s "Agree with your Adversary" strategy is deceptively simple, yet powerful. But what truly sets his program apart is his focus on mindset transformation. He challenges the common thinking we absorb from YouTube and social media and helps us see the markets from a completely different perspective.

One of the most impactful lessons for me has been Mike’s concept of “Learning to Lose.” It’s a complete paradigm shift—understanding that success doesn’t come from trying to make money quickly, but from learning how to lose correctly and manage risk with discipline. That shift in thinking alone has been worth the entire program.

Beyond the course material, Mike’s mentorship feels personal. He takes the time to email, call, and check in to make sure you’re understanding and applying the strategy properly. He genuinely walks with you every step of the way.

If you’re serious about becoming a successful day trader—and want to build both your trading foundation and your mindset on truth and discipline—The Trading Template is the only course I recommend.

No feedback from Mike. You pay big bucks and then you are on your own. His method has helped me a little bit but not 2000 worth. He hasn't even updated the site in over 5 years. I keep going back to the training trying to drag myself through another segment. He does have golden tidbits buried throughout the classes but you have to really pay attention to catch the short quick little snippets buried in his conversations.
I feel foolish for spending $2000.00. I think the class is way over priced, it shouldn't be over 500.00. Bad on me.

God bless you, Mike!
I’m fully grasping this new training and skill that you’re teaching me! I’m working every day to change my mind. It’s absolutely incredible. Thank you again.

My trading journey has turned around for the better! My trading partner Harrison and I have been putting in a lot of work and hours into practicing.

We started live trading about a month and an half ago. My third time and his first. I went back twice and had to go back to paper trading after losing a combined $4,000.

We started live trading and it was going okay, we learned a lot. But we still weren’t making any money. We’d win and then we’d lose, we’d win and then we’d lose. Then after about a month of that I was sitting at 18,600, after starting at $21000. That was September 16th.

We figured out what we were doing wrong. We weren’t taking profit, we weren’t taking out profitable trades off the table and we were letting them sit there for far too long! Hoping for envisioned profit instead of taking what the market so willing gave us! Now, 10 days later. I went from 18,600 back up to 21,400. Just taking my small daily wins! We trade about 5 instruments. But since we have two eyes it’s not as bad. He takes 3 and I take 3. And we bounce ideas off each other all day.

We work concrete together during the day, and so we’re constantly bouncing ideas, talking strategy and changing the way we think.

I really think this has changed my life, I’ve only seen a little bit of progress. But I’m so excited to see where it takes me! I’ve come along way in 7 months and I couldn’t have done it without your course! This is my first profitable month, and I’m hoping for more to come. I’m looking to raise some capital in a few months if the profitability continues, which I know if I keep my head on it will, by selling some assets i have. Hoping to be able to scale to a point where I can quit my labor intensive job. Save my back. And regain my life back.

I’m 23 and Harrison is 22. And we are so grateful for your course. It changed the trajectory of our lives. And I’m so pumped to see what this future has to hold! Thank you Mike. I will update you if anything major happens.

I recently joined Mike’s advanced trading course focused on the ‘line of change’ strategy, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. I first discovered Mike online, and right from the start, his communication and the clarity of his insights really resonated with me. As a fellow tradesperson—I’m a plumber, and Mike is an electrician—I felt an immediate connection and confidence in his ability to teach.

After a great initial phone conversation, I decided to enroll in the full 12-month advanced course. The extended content is absolutely worth it, and I’ve been going through the materials repeatedly to really absorb everything. Mike has been incredibly responsive to my questions, and I appreciate how approachable he is despite his busy schedule.

I’m already seeing steady progress and feel more confident in my trading skills. For anyone considering diving into trading, I wholeheartedly recommend Mike’s course. It’s a fantastic investment if you’re willing to put in the time and effort. Huge thanks to Mike for creating such a valuable resource. I’m excited to continue learning and growing as I move forward.
