The Fall 2026 Pristine Mentorship Is Open!
Sami Abusaad and James Rich Young’s next Pristine Mentorship is on the calendar for October through December 2026. 3 of 30 spots for this one-of-a-kind event have already been taken. This is the ultimate “Earning and Learning” Mentorship for 2 types of traders: Newcomers that want to go all-in and learn a complete system for success Intermediate traders that want a fresh start Sami and James start by teaching you their technical analysis system from A to Z. Then they move on to more advanced topics. And you join specialized group coaching sessions so you can work on your personal trading style. We’ve had attendees from 23 countries across 5 continents. We’re talking everywhere from the US to Belgium to Hong Kong to Sweden to Kazakhstan. 3 Reasons Real Traders Love the Pristine Mentorship Apart Our Mentorship programs have always gotten fantastic reviews. But our 2024-2026 cohorts surpassed the most optimistic expectations, because we added: 1) More Expansive Training with Sami Abusaad and James Rich Young Pro trader James Rich Young leads the Pristine Active Trader Virtual Trading Floor® alongside Sami. And here’s a fun fact; James attended Sami’s 2019 Mentorship. Soon after, James stepped up help Sami lead the VTF@ community, and now he’s one of your teachers. He’s the ultimate example of a student becoming a master. 2) Live Specialized Coaching Sessions with Sami and James Our past Mentorship Programs did not include specialized coaching sessions after the initial week-long event. That’s changed. Now you get 5 exclusive LIVE group coaching sessions to set you up for long-term success. You’ll get to ask these two top pro traders anything you want. So you can solve your greatest trading challenges, and build on your personal strengths. Sami and James bring you right inside the reality of pro trading. You’ll hear about the good, the bad, the ugly — and everything in between. If you have questions, they have answers. 3) From 5 Days… to One Year of Trading & Learning with Sami and James The classic Mentorship Program lasted for 5 days. And yes, traders LOVED IT. But in our quest to create the greatest learning experience in our history, the Mentorship program now lasts 6 weeks. And as part of your enormous bonus package, you get a year of access to the Pristine Active Trader VTF® so you work with Sami and James for an entire year. That gives you additional coaching for a whole year. That is 12 months of growth for you. So What Stays the Same? The Earning and Learning. The heart of the Mentorship experience is your ability to earn and learn. Yes, we want you to learn everything you need to know to earn a consistent, large income in the markets. But your goal should be to be profitable as soon as possible too. On day 1, if you can. We can’t promise you specific results, but that’s what we shoot for. That’s why live trading is a core part of the Pristine Mentorship. This isn’t just another weekend seminar where the instructor looks like a genius because he tells you what just happened. Sami and James show you their ideas in real-time, live without a safety net. So you can see their strategies working in real-world conditions using real money.
