Memberships
- What do I get with PipNDip ($39/month)?
- Signals only. You receive 1–2 XAUUSD signals per day with entry, stop loss and take profit levels, sent instantly to Telegram. It takes about five minutes a day to place the trades. There is no course or live session access on this plan.
- What do I get with MarksFX Gold VIP ($49/month)?
- Everything in PipNDip plus the full Smart Money Concepts course, live trading sessions 8–11AM PST every weekday, evening Zoom calls Monday–Thursday and Sunday, the recordings vault, VIP chat and Q&A, and access to the Gold and Silver Telegram groups. This is the plan most serious traders choose.
- Is the Lifetime membership worth it?
- Lifetime Membership Access is billed at $291.67/month on Whop until it is paid off, and includes every current plan plus all future content — after that you never pay again. It pays for itself against Gold VIP if you plan to stay long term.
- What is Small Cap & Options VIP?
- A $79/month add-on to any plan: daily small cap and options alerts, live trades, SEC filing breakdowns, weekly watchlists and a private VIP community. It is a separate product, so you can add or cancel it independently.
- What is Risk Mastery?
- A $25 one-time purchase: Mark's complete risk management playbook covering position sizing, drawdown control and the rules behind every signal.
- Can I hold more than one membership at a time?
- Yes. All products are billed separately through Whop, so you can stack memberships and add-ons without conflict.
- How do I cancel or change a plan?
- Memberships are managed in your Whop dashboard — cancel or change at any time there and it takes effect at the end of your current billing period. Copy trading is the one exception: that subscription is non-refundable and covered by the signed waiver.
- Where do I find my Telegram group link?
- It appears automatically in your Whop dashboard right after your payment goes through. If you don't see it, message us from the contact page and we'll add you manually.
Signals, course and live sessions
- Which markets does Mark trade?
- Primarily XAUUSD (gold), NAS100 and SPX500. Small cap and options alerts are covered separately in the Small Cap & Options VIP add-on.
- What time do the live sessions run?
- Mark trades live 8–11AM PST every weekday, marking up charts in real time and explaining each decision. Evening Zoom classes run Monday–Thursday and Sunday. All sessions are recorded for Gold VIP and Lifetime members.
- Do I need experience to start?
- No. The SMC course starts from market structure basics and builds to full setups. If you only want to follow signals without learning the system first, PipNDip is the simpler entry point.
- Will this help me pass a funded challenge?
- Many members use the signals and risk rules for prop firm challenges, and the risk management module is built around those rules. No result is guaranteed — passing depends on your discipline and your firm's conditions.
Copy trading
- How does MarksFX copy trading work?
- Copy trading is a separate $500/month subscription. Mark's live MT5 trades are mirrored into your own broker account through Social Trader Tools, so positions open and close on your account automatically at your chosen risk level. You keep full control of your funds — they stay in your own broker account and Mark never has withdrawal access.
- What are the steps to get connected?
- 1) Sign the combined waiver. 2) You and our team both receive a signed copy by email. 3) You get a setup instructions email with a step-by-step video. 4) Link your MT5 account to the master account in Social Trader Tools. 5) Choose your risk multiplier and start copying.
- How does the risk setting work?
- Social Trader Tools scales Mark's position sizes to your account using a risk multiplier. A lower multiplier means smaller positions and smaller swings in both directions; a higher one amplifies both gains and losses. Choose based on your account size and how much drawdown you can tolerate, not on the return you want.
- How much money do I need to start copy trading?
- Enough that the scaled position sizes and normal drawdown fit comfortably within your account. Only ever fund an account with money you can afford to lose entirely.
- Is the copy trading subscription refundable?
- No. The $500/month copy trading fee is non-refundable, including for months with losing trades or unmet expectations, and chargebacks or payment disputes over trading results are not permitted. This is spelled out in Section 7 of the waiver you sign before connecting.
Risk and payments
- What are the risks?
- Trading forex, indices and CFDs carries a substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for everyone. You can lose some or all of your capital. Past performance — including any win rate or member result shown on this site — does not predict future results. Nothing here is financial, investment, legal or tax advice.
- Are member results typical?
- No. Testimonials reflect individual experiences and are not a guarantee. Most outcomes depend on discipline, risk settings and market conditions.
- How do payments work?
- Academy memberships and add-ons are processed securely through Whop, with instant access after payment. Copy trading is billed separately at $500/month. We never see or store your card details.
- Who do I contact if something goes wrong?
- Use the contact page or the chat assistant in the corner of any page. Billing questions for academy plans are fastest through your Whop dashboard.
