The Apteros Trading Community

A guided environment where professionals trade, learn, collaborate and develop together


Are you tired of feeling isolated in the trading world?

Sick of chat rooms filled with endless noise and distraction?

Our private community is here to change all that.

Not only are we a group of traders with a common goal of becoming world-class, but we also offer peer-to-peer mentoring from our prop desk traders.

Imagine having the opportunity to watch over the shoulders of our top traders as they document their trades and discussions - it's like getting a backstage pass to the exciting (and hardworking) world of prop trading.

But we're not just a bunch of traders trying to make it on our own. No, no.

We hold each other accountable and believe in the power of learning through mutual experience.

So, if you're serious about making a career out of trading and you want to be a part of a community that truly cares about its members, join us today!

Trust us, you won't regret it.

The Business of Trading

Much of your success in trading will come from the time spent outside trading hours. Here is where you’ll learn how to treat trading like a business.

We show you how to do morning prep, post-session reviews, and general trading business topics, best practices, and much more.

Here is a snapshot of a recent thought experiment posted by one of our top traders.

NADRO Support

As a NADRO Student, this specific forum is related to all things related to the NADRO Methodology, its core topics, and how to develop a deeper understanding of them.

Have questions? You’ll likely find there’s already a topic on it but new questions are always welcome!
