Questions and answers
Short answers about the free training, the demo account, the bonus and the risks. The full wording is in the documents linked below.
Last updated: 1 October 2026
1. Is the training really free?
The training is free of charge. No payment is requested at any stage, and none is accepted.
The training is free whether or not you ever use a referral link or open a real account.
2. Is the $50,000 real money?
The $50,000 mentioned on the page is the balance of a demo account: virtual money supplied by a trading platform for practice. It is not real money, it cannot be withdrawn or converted, it is not income and it is not a gift from us. Results on a demo account are simulated and are not an indication of what would happen with real money.
3. Who pays the bonus up to $1,000?
The bonus of up to $1,000 on a real account after the training is the partner broker's offer, paid by the broker under its own terms. Mark Barsky does not pay it and does not set its conditions. Read the broker's bonus terms before you deposit, and remember that a bonus does not remove risk.
4. How is the free training paid for?
Mark Barsky takes part in referral and affiliate programmes operated by third-party brokerage firms. If you decide to open an account with one of those firms and you do so through a referral link he gives you, the firm may pay him a one-off or ongoing fee.
That fee is paid by the broker out of its own revenue. It does not add anything to your costs, does not change the spread or commission you are charged, and does not give Mark Barsky any access to or control over your account. More on How it is funded.
5. Is this financial advice?
Nothing on the page, in the community or in the training is investment advice, a personal recommendation, a solicitation or an offer to buy or sell any financial instrument. No content takes account of your financial situation, objectives or needs. No profit, income or outcome is promised or implied.
6. Can I lose money?
Trading financial instruments carries a high risk of losing money, the majority of retail investor accounts lose money when trading leveraged products, and nothing taught in this training, no entry and no bot changes that. Read the risk disclosure.
7. Who can join?
You may use the page and take part in the training only if you are 18 or over and legally able to enter into a binding agreement. The page is not directed at, and the training is not offered to, residents of any jurisdiction where doing so would breach local law or regulation, including the United States, Canada, Japan, Belgium, and any territory subject to applicable sanctions.
8. How do I start or ask a question?
Joining the training, places, scheduling and questions about the programme go through the Telegram bot behind the button on this page. The bot passes questions to Mark Barsky; you do not have to join anything to ask one.
9. What will you not ask me for?
No one from this training will ask you for a payment, a card number, a crypto transfer, a copy of your passport, a trading account password, a 2FA code, or remote access to your computer.
10. How do I reach you by email?
Questions about the page, privacy and data requests, and complaints go to [email protected]. Put the subject in the first line so it reaches the right person.
