Skool review
“I went from semi-consistent and trading alone to consistently profitable with defined risk, clear goals, and a deeper understanding of market structure.”
Craig Boswick · Oct 2026, Skool
Skool review
“It's all here, nothing is left out, no secret sauce that you have to upgrade to access!”
Phil Molyneux · Aug 2026, Skool
Skool review
“Trading has improved more in a month than the previous 10, awesome!!!”
Johnny H. · Sep 2026, Skool
Skool review
“I am almost at 2 months in and his 90 payout guarantee is not going to be needed by me.”
Ken Schaefer · Sep 2026, Skool
Plenty of good things to say
“When I joined, I was struggling to consistently pass prop firm evaluations; today, I have several funded PA accounts.”
Philo, NC · Aug 2026
Trading hasn't been this easy before
“I have used other people's methods and passed evals, but then right away blew my live accounts. Rod's methods are clear.”
Adam Gomes · Mar 2026
Risk management saves accounts
“Before, I could easily overleverage, make some quick profits, and then give it all back just as fast. After adopting a risk-first approach, I've been able to keep more of my profits.”
Kevin Syltøy · Aug 2026
Game-changer for realistic, disciplined futures trading
“I had been trading futures for two years, lost a lot of capital early on, and was essentially just breaking even... If you want to stop blowing up accounts and trade the right way, I highly recommend TDG.”
Don C · Aug 2026
TDG is the Way
“It's a place where you learn how to stop blowing accounts and instead build toward consistent, manageable payouts with prop firms.”
Brett Peterson · Apr 2026
If you're looking to pass prop programs
“I've struggled with prop programs for a long while, but have finally been able to succeed with Rod's method of risk management.”
Marc · Dec 2023
TDG has helped me
“It felt as if I was taking 2 steps forward and 5 steps back... My confidence is back in my trading and am quickly becoming more consistent with smaller down days.”
Bryan · Apr 2024
TDG from a Pro's Perspective
“Rod has a track record of over performance and delivers results in a risk adjusted way, putting risk at the front of the engine rather than focusing on strategies.”
Stuart, worked at a London prop firm · Feb 2026
Finding this group has been a game changer
“It has helped me become a more disciplined trader and now the payouts are flowing on a consistent basis.”
Janel · May 2025
Love it!
“Instead of treading water, drowning, I'm moving towards payouts!”
Johhny H. · Aug 2026
Rod leaves the magical thinking behind.

The TDG Way
“Having blown over 30 accounts, I now know thanks to Rod, the TDG Way... how to not only win at trading prop futures accounts, but how to stay solvent.”

Payout certificates
The payouts behind the reviews.
Certificates Rod already publishes on tradersdevgroup.com. Last names covered by the firms or by TDG.
These are individual member results and are not typical. Most traders who attempt prop firm evaluations do not pass, and most who get funded do not receive a payout. Trading futures involves substantial risk of loss.

What you'll discover
In this free live masterclass, Rod reveals:
From TDG 2.0 Foundations, Lesson 1.
Secret #1
Why one bad day keeps wiping out your account, and why a new strategy won't fix it.
Usually it isn't your strategy. It's one session that got away from you. Rod shows you how to see it coming and stop it early.
Secret #2
The Circuit Breaker: the one number Rod sets before the open, and what happens when he hits it.
The first rung of the ladder. One number you set before the market opens. Hit it and you're done for the day. Rod shows you how to set yours, and why it keeps a bad day small.
Secret #3
The Risk First Ladder: which rung you're on right now, and the only way to the next one.
Loser, less of a loser, break even, profitable. Every trader goes through these in order, and there's no skipping a step. You'll know which one you're on and what gets you to the next one.
Secret #4
Why passing the eval is the easy part, and what changes the day your account gets funded.
Plenty of traders pass the eval, then lose the funded account within a few sessions. Rod shows you what changes once it's funded, and how to keep it.

“I’ve been around the markets since 1994, when I joined Merrill Lynch. I traded the first E-mini contract when it came out in 1997, and the first micros when they came out in 2019. Trading has been my primary source of income since 2011.
I’ve seen a lot of strategies, traders and trading educators come and go. But I’m still doing it. Every weekday I’m in the Pro Trade Room, trading the same size accounts and the same products you will, taking prop evaluations and showing my own payouts.
I’m not here to teach you how to trade. I’m here to teach you how to become a trader.”

The honest part
You're not a bad trader. Your risk is.
You can read a chart. You've passed the eval. You've had green weeks.
None of it stuck, because one session got away from you and took the account with it. As Rod puts it, one bad day usually wipes out weeks and weeks of good progress. Small winners, oversized losers.
That isn't a strategy problem. It isn't psychology either. It's a risk problem, and another strategy won't fix it.
On Thursday, November 19 at 7PM ET, Rod shows you the fix, live.
