Tradenet Review 2025 - Is it a Scam? Fees, leverage, minimum deposit
Tradenet is a platform where traders can learn how to trade stocks. Various training packages are offered, which already include a capitalised trading account. Various individual courses can be booked for this purpose. The trading account is managed by the partner broker Colmex Pro. Behind the portal is Meir Barak, a leading Wall Street expert according to his own statements. Tradenet operates several branches worldwide and currently serves around 30,000 participants. Read all about our Tradenet review in terms of services, prices and pricing.
At first glance, the strong advertising character of the Tradenet website is particularly striking. If you believe the makers, anyone can learn how to trade stocks here. It is suggested to readers that they can practically only win. Revenue is shared between customers and Tradenet, losses are borne by Tradenet. However, no company could survive with such a business model.
Another negative aspect is that the entire website was not translated. Further information about the company and the persons involved is only available in English. Moreover, the information provided cannot really be substantiated.
At first glance, the prices do not appear to be exactly favourable. We start with the one-month introductory course for 495 euros. The price of platinum over 12 months is 8,900 euros. The costs for the individual courses are similarly high. To get started, an online self-study course is offered for 290 euros. For this purpose there are various course materials, which are only available in English.
In our review, we first took a closer look at the trial course. The majority of traders are likely to opt for this offer for the time being. The course runs over a period of four weeks. Customers will receive a trading account with a starting balance of $14,000. This sounds positive at first glance, especially as the risk of loss is on the broker's side. However, the Tradenet review shows that the potential loss is limited to 700 US dollars. 80 percent of the profits generated go to the trader and 20 percent to the trader.
For the price of 495 euros, the training materials are not too lavish. Customers receive access to the Live Trading Room, which is available in German and English. Here users can look over other traders' shoulders when trading. There are two daily training videos with chart analyses and a weekly one-hour seminar. The self-study course is included in this package, but it is only available in English. The book "Der Börsenflüsterer" by Meir Barak is available as a free online version.
According to our Tradenet review, the customer benefit of this package is limited. Similar training materials are offered free of charge by many brokers. In addition, traders can usually practice trading free of charge via a free demo account. Although the account is capitalized at $14,000, the maximum allowed loss of $700 is quickly reached by beginners.
In addition to the costs, the other packages differed primarily in terms of training duration, capitalisation of the trading account and potential losses and profits. For example, the Silver account includes four months of coaching and a capitalization of 80,000 US dollars. Depending on the package, customers receive up to 95 percent of the profits made.
There are few differences in the training materials included. Gold and Platinum courses include a week-long Trader Camp. However, there is no nutritional information as to where this takes place. In addition, there are also various prices for Forex trading, for example, but unfortunately these are only in English. Very good language skills are indispensable for this.
There is a monthly fee of 15.10 euros for the trading account. This amount is automatically deducted from the balance of the managed account. In addition, there are the transaction costs for stock trading. These are EUR 0.006 per share. This means that a fee of 1.20 euros is charged for the purchase of 200 securities. However, there is a minimum fee of 1.50 euros per trade. In addition to the execution costs, a routing fee is charged, which averages 0.0015 Euro per share. So anyone who buys 400 shares pays a total fee of 3 euros.
As the Tradenet review shows, the product range also includes various individual courses. Unfortunately, these are only in English and therefore require very good language skills. Otherwise it is almost impossible to follow the individual learning steps.
An example of this is the price for Forex trading and trading in EU stocks. The price for this is not particularly favourable at 1,895 euros. Especially as the services included cannot really inspire. Course participants receive access to six three-hour online live sessions. In principle, these are webinars that explain forex trading in more detail. A two-month access to the trading room is included in the price. Practice with a demo account.
According to our Tradenet review, the training portal works together with the Colmex Pro broker. The broker is based in Cyprus and is regulated by the local financial supervisory authority CySEC. The trading offer includes European and US equities as well as Forex and CFDs.
One of the advantages of Colmex Pro is the narrow spreads from 0.3 pips in Forex trading. Trading CFDs is subject to a flat fee of between $1.50 and $9.95 per trade. In addition, there is a commission of 0.01 to 0.06 dollars per share. You can either trade with MetaTrader 4 or via the company's own web-based platform. Mobile trading via smartphone or tablet PC is also possible.
Of course, the trading account with Colmex Pro can also be opened independently of the Tradenet training. With the free demo account, alel functions and trading options can be tested extensively.
If you want to get an overview of Tradenet, you can request a 14-day trial period. All you have to do is fill in a short online form with your name, e-mail address and telephone number. According to our tradenet review, interested parties receive the access data to the trading room by e-mail.
The course fees can be paid in different ways according to our Tradenet review. Mastercard and Visa credit cards and PayPal payments are accepted. You can also pay by traditional bank transfer. Please note that the fees are generally due in advance. Fortunately, Tradenet offers a 14-day money-back guarantee. If you are not satisfied with the offer, you can reclaim the fees within this period.
Winnings can be paid out once a month. Payment can be made to your credit card, bank account or PayPal. Please note a minimum amount of 200 Euro. A withdrawal request can only be submitted at the end of a calendar month, must be submitted by the 10th of the following month at the latest and will be processed on the 15th day of the month of payment. No fees are charged for the payouts.
If you have any questions about Tradenet's services, customers and interested parties can contact support via live chat. According to our Tradenet review, a German-speaking employee is usually available during the day. Alternatively, telephone support is also available from the London office. Due to the international phone number, however, additional costs are incurred. In addition, the telephone service is only available in English. Alternatively there is the possibility to send a message via the contact form. Written enquiries are usually answered within 48 hours.
At first glance, Tradenet's offer looks quite attractive. Customers receive a capitalised trading account and can thus trade virtually risk-free. A possible loss is borne by the trader, but the amount is limited. In return, however, the fees are far too high according to our taste. Course fees of 495 euros are already due for the one-month trial course. This price is not justified by the training materials included. The same applies to the individual courses offered. It makes more sense to register with a broker with good training offers and a free demo account.
