Night Owl Trading Group
Night Owl Trading Group
A small-group futures and prop-firm education program, live with Wes. You leave with a written plan you built, 50+ practice trades logged against it, and a prop-firm evaluation underway — because every week someone checks whether you actually followed your own rules. Instruction only: Wes never tells you what to trade.
Night Owl already has three full recorded courses — 145 lessons of self-paced material. This is the opposite of that: small, live, and taught in real time.
"In three weeks you will have written and tested your own trading plan, logged 50+ practice trades against it, and started a prop-firm evaluation — with Wes teaching you, every week, how to tell whether you actually followed it."
What is deliberately not promised: profit, income, a return, or that you'll pass the evaluation. Nobody can honestly promise those, and anyone who does is selling you something else. What is promised is instruction in a process, a structure to practise it in, and honest feedback on your discipline in following the rules you wrote.
This is education and mentorship only. Night Owl Trading Group is not a registered investment adviser, broker-dealer, commodity trading advisor, or commodity pool operator. Wes will not tell you what to buy or sell, will not recommend positions, will never touch your account or funds, and gives no advice tailored to your personal financial circumstances. Every trading decision is yours alone.
You don't move to the next week until the previous week's work is done. That's the whole design — it's what separates this from a course you can quietly abandon in week one.
Gate: written plan approved + 50 replay/backtested trades logged.
Gate: 5 sessions logged at 80%+ plan compliance.
After: 30 days of async Q&A + a 45-minute check-in call at day 30.
Roughly 6–8 hours of contact time a week, plus your own screen time. Sessions are recorded, so a missed one isn't a missed week.
Seats are limited and applications are reviewed personally. Turning away a bad fit is part of the job — a mismatched student is a bad experience for everyone in the room.
The first cohort runs at a reduced rate in exchange for candid feedback and, if you're happy, a testimonial at the end. That rate is not coming back.
No buy button on purpose. Every seat goes through an application and a conversation first — at this price it would be irresponsible to let someone check out before we've both confirmed it's a fit. A $500 deposit holds your founding seat once you're accepted (refundable up to 7 days before the start date), with the balance due before Session 1.
Refund policy: full refund if you request it within 48 hours of Session 1. After that, no cash refund — but if you completed every assignment and it didn't work for you, you get a free seat in the next cohort. There is never a guarantee tied to trading results.
Not the value proposition — you're paying for Wes's time and attention. But it's all yours, permanently, from day one, including both paid courses you would otherwise buy separately.
The form below takes about five minutes. Be honest on it — a padded application just wastes the call.
Usually within 1–2 business days. Not everyone gets a call, and that's the point.
A 30-minute Zoom to confirm the fit runs both ways. No pitch — if it's wrong for you, you'll be told so.
$500, applied to your balance, refundable up to 7 days before the start date. Balance due before Session 1.
You'll get the Futures & Prop Firm Mastery course (included with your seat) and a short setup checklist to complete before the cohort opens.
No one can honestly answer yes to that, and you should be wary of anyone who does. Most people who try to trade for a living do not succeed at it. What this program does is give you a written process, real reps against it, and someone experienced telling you where your execution is breaking down. Whether that turns into profitability depends on you, your discipline, and factors none of us control.
No, and this is the most important thing on the page. Everything here is education and mentorship. Wes teaches a method and then teaches you to audit your own discipline against the rules you wrote — he will not tell you what to buy or sell, will not recommend or evaluate specific positions, will not give advice based on your personal financial circumstances, will not manage your account, will not take a cut of your results, and will never have access to your funds.
Night Owl Trading Group is not a registered investment adviser, broker-dealer, commodity trading advisor, or commodity pool operator, and is not registered with the SEC, CFTC, or NFA. Nothing in this program creates an advisory or fiduciary relationship, and you are solely responsible for every decision you make in your own account.
Every teaching session and market-open room is recorded, and you keep those recordings permanently. The weekly gates still apply though — the work has to get done to move forward, whether you attended live or watched the replay.
No. You need a broker or sim account you can trade in, and enough genuine risk capital ($2–10k) that the decisions feel real. Prop-firm evaluations are simulated accounts — Week 3 covers choosing and starting one.
Because the 1:1 reviews and daily journal feedback are the actual product, and those don't scale. Wes commits roughly 20 hours a week during a running cohort. More seats would mean less of him, which would mean a worse program.
Coaching sessions are à la carte — you book one when there is a specific concept you want taught. The Intensive is a structured start-to-finish path with a cohort, deadlines, gates, and daily accountability. Both are education only, on identical terms. If you know exactly what you want to learn, book a session. If you want the whole method taught and practised, this is it.
Dates are confirmed with each accepted applicant before any deposit is taken — we run it when the cohort is full and everyone can commit to the same three weeks. Apply and you'll get the current target window on your discovery call.
Reviewed personally by Wes, usually within 1–2 business days. No payment is taken at this stage.
