FOR ASPIRING TRADERS LOOKING FOR AN EXTRA SOURCE OF INCOME IN 2025

The New ETA Strategy Grid™ Allows You To Go From Feeling Like The Market Is Going Against You To Being Able To Make Profitable Trades Regularly - Using a Strategy Developed With Insights from a Hedge Fund Owner.

Even Better - You Won’t Need To Stare At Charts And Guess How The Price Will Move, Lose Money On Bad Trades Or Search Around YouTube For Information​

No Commitment - No Credit Card Info Needed

What is the ETA Strategy Grid™

ETA Strategy Grid™ is a counterintuitive approach to learning to trade Forex, that allows you to make profitable trades consistently without losing thousands of dollars in the process.

All without that feeling like the market is going against you or staring at the screen not knowing what to do.

We do this with a proven 3-pillar system that covers not just the trading strategy, but also everything else that plays a role in making a profitable trade.

The reason this works and is so powerful is because instead of relying on traditional price patterns and indicators...

We focus on identifying where the big traders, hedge funds and financial institutions are entering into positions...

After all, these guys never lose and know where the flow of money is sitting.

And all we're doing is following the flow of money so we can jump on the train of success all the way to the top.

The way we use this by using a very specific strategy that allows us to identify where the high volume areas are.

Thereby allowing us to know where the highest volume of trades are taking place...

As a result, we're able to find highly profitable low-risk trades that allow us to get in and out of positions quickly while making thousands (and sometimes even tens of thousands) of dollars in a few trades.

In essence, we aren't guessing how the price is gonna move, we are aligning our trades with the natural flow of the market where "big money" is active.

It is all revealed inside our community led by two top-tier traders who have both went from being broke to making over 6figures a month…

​And because we are always there with you LIVE, showing you what to do and what not to do, this allows you to learn how to make winning trades faster and with more certainty.​

3 Pillars of the ETA Strategy Grid™ 

  • MindMap Method - time-tested method designed to help traders build the mental resilience and disciplined mindset needed to stay consistent under pressure.
  • LiveWalk Method -  removes guesswork and ensures trades are based on strategy, not emotions. This leads to higher win rates and long-term consistency.
  • NewsToAction Formula - a prove framework that enables traders to interpret current events and understand their potential impact on market movements.

ETA Strategy Grid™ is a shortcut!

Before we developed the ETA Strategy Grid™, we were trying to develop a profitable trading strategy while trying to make ends meet with our regular jobs.

Shaun, a retired marine, was reading books and learning how to trade in between driving for Uber, while I was trying to figure out how to make profitable trades through trial and error - without a mentor.

We got ourselves a deal we never signed up for.

Which led us to questioning everything and eventually turning the entire model upside down, breaking all the rules and freeing us from the chains of the old ways.

After several years of trial-and-error, testing everything, and figuring things out the hard way - we’ve finally figured out a way to make money from anywhere in the world by looking at charts and making trades.

Despite coming from different backgrounds, our paths crossed and we decided to help people who are in the same situation we were in.

You can access the ETA Strategy Grid™ system we used to help over 2000+ beginner trades to start making profitable trades inside of the ETA Community.

How We Went From Trying To Make Ends Meet To Making More Than 6 Figures Every Month By Trading Forex

This Is Something Completely New, Completely Different, Completely Unlike Anything You've Ever Heard Of Before - Read The Story Below to Discover More

From: Shaun Bankz and Josh Barnes
Re: Make profitable trades on a regular basis

Dear Future ETA Community Member,

Would you be surprised that you’ll have access to a community that’s led by 2 successful traders who have gone from being an ex-marine Uber driver and having more than $200,000 in debt to making over $100,000 per month trading Forex?

Completely free for 14 days?

Skeptical? You should be.

After all, you can’t believe everything you read on the internet :-)

Let Us Prove To You That ETA Community Will Change Your Trading Game Forever

But first, read this disclaimer:

  • Both of us have the benefits of being in the trading game for more than 13 years combined.
  • The average person who buys any "how-to" guide gets little to no results.

I’m using these references for example purposes only. Your results will vary and depend on many factors …including but not limited to your background, experience, and most importantly work ethic.

All purchases entail risk as well as consistent effort and action. If you’re not willing to accept that, please DO NOT JOIN THIS COMMUNITY.

​And yes, it took us both time, energy, and stress to achieve our results.

And We Did It By Using A Completely Counterintuitive Model That We’re About To Share With You On This Very Page…

This is the same model shared in the ETA Community, where traders from around the world join to follow our trades, learn from them, and ask questions. In turn, they start making profitable trades regularly, while understanding the process behind them.

All while trading alongside both of us to learn every step in the process. Which makes it perfect for both beginner and intermediate traders looking to pump up their income and enhance their trading abilities.​

Just Like Daisy

Daisy used to struggle with losing money, even though she was able to make a winning trade here and there - but has now learned how to keep what she makes and win regularly.

Daisy Is Only A Small Part Of A Group Of Traders Who Are Doing Things Differently

discord.jpg

And you can BET…

The ETA Community is unlike any group you’ve ever heard of or been a part of before…

This is something completely different because:

  • We don't send signals & trades and disappear without explaining them.
  • We don’t ignore the questions our members ask us.
  • We don’t share trades unless we’re confident they’ll be profitable.
  • We don’t overcomplicate everything.

In fact, we rarely (if ever) use complicated terminology and setups in our trades…

The ETA Strategy Grid™ Allowed Us To Become Profitable Traders, And To Help 2000+ Traders Do The Same

Here’s what our lives used to look like when we first started (and if you’ve ever tried trading Forex, you can surely relate).

We call this The Forex Trading Black Hole.

  • See everybody on Instagram "making money" trading
  • Desperately search for the "perfect strategy"
  • Stare at the screen for a long time waiting for a setup then placing the setup and almost instantly it going against me
  • Lose money
  • Break your keyboard out of anger
  • Buy a new keyboard and do the same tomorrow

The Forex Trading Black Hole not only sucked but kept us both stuck for years - forcing us to lose our hard-earned money on losing trades while trying to figure out how to become profitable.

To be honest… we almost gave up on the idea of becoming profitable Forex traders.

But before we gave up, we wanted to try something…

And as you’re about to find out, what we tried… Ultimately worked. So we decided to create the system behind it.
​

We Share That System Within The ETA Community™
Which You Can Become A Part Of In Just A Few Moments From Now​

First, Let's Introduce Ourselves

Get To Know Our Story

Despite having different life paths, our stories have one thing in common - we were both dead broke.

Shaun Bankz

Shaun was a young guy who just got out of the Marine Corps - not knowing what to do next. So he signed up to become an Uber driver.

Everything got harder when he started to make less money and had to move into a beat-down wooden shed.

One night he was laying in his shed and everything hit him like a ton of bricks - he couldn’t believe he hit rock bottom.
​

Josh Barnes

Around the same time, after finishing high school, I was like all the kids of that age: going through the motions and discovering what I wanted to do with my life.

I’ve hit some bumps on the road which resulted in me dropping out of college.

Besides that, a few of my failed entrepreneurial attempts left me with over $200,000 in debt.

But we both had the feeling that this was not the end, which is when we were introduced to Forex trading.

So one day while driving Uber, Shaun picked up a guy and through chat found out he was a mentor in the currency exchange space. The whole idea of being at home, looking at charts on a computer, and making money felt surreal to him at first, but having nothing to lose, he asked the guy if he could teach him how to do it.

Soon Shaun started reading books and looking at charts in between his Uber rides and after a while got to an income that allowed him to quit his job and trade full-time. In the past 3 years, he helped more than 1,500 people to become profitable…

The difference between our stories is the fact that I didn’t even have a mentor.

It was just me vs. the market.

I quickly understood that if I could be a consistent disciplined trader, and control my downside risk, I would be able to make money.

Having no mentor, I used the good old trial-and-error method, but after a while, I was able to start making profitable trades.

ETA Strategy Grid Is One Of The Easiest And Fastest Ways To Become A Profitable Forex Trader

Just think about it:

  • Do you want to lose money, because you weren't sure how to properly execute the trade, leaving you wondering how you'll cover your living expenses?

As somebody who learned to trade through trial and error and having no mentor, trust me, it’s not as fun as it sounds…

  • Do you want to lose money on a trade, after finally getting everything right, just because you have made an impulsive decision?

After you finally start seeing the chart going the way you predicted, it can cause you to think with your emotions, causing you to either lose out on money you could’ve made or completely lose the trade.

  • Do you want to spend hours losing sleep after your long day at work analyzing the charts without even knowing what you're looking for?

Sleep is a crucial factor when it comes to being efficient and successful in any job, especially in a profession like trading where concentration is required.

And the best part is...

You Don’t Have To Do And Test Everything On Your Own

This means you can focus on learning proven strategies and tricks that will lead you to becoming a profitable Forex trader.

​All you have to do is trade alongside us, listen, and follow the things we tell you inside the community.

That was years ago

Fast Forward to today

We proved the idea of “following the traditional life path” to be all wrong. Instead of me paying out my debt for the next 20 years working a regular job and Shaun trying to make the ends meet…

We are able to make more than 6 figures a month trading from anywhere in the world.

Chatting on FaceTime while writing this copy you’re reading, we have the lives we always wanted.

We are able to do whatever we want with our lives because work doesn’t feel like work and can be done from anywhere.

Wanna Know What The Main Difference Between The ETA Strategy Grid ™ And That Old And Common Way Of Doing Things?
​

Other aspiring traders spend countless hours trying to figure out the right way to trade through YouTube videos and fake gurus, while in ETA Community you have access to Shaun and me, who have gone through that path and made the mistakes so you don't have to. 

Rather than doing all those things I mentioned above in order to become a profitable trader, here’s what it looks like now:

And The Result Of Using This New Way?

Which Naturally Leads To

You, not only being able to follow our trades, but also trade with us, learn from our, and ask us questions.

And the best part is you’ll also have time to enjoy other things in your life and not only work.​

The really cool thing is that…

If you follow every single step that I teach, you end up with an additional source of income on top of your 9 - 5 job, that can even replace it. But it’s much more than that…​

It’s A Skill You Can Use Whenever And Wherever You Want That Allows You To Build Generational Wealth For Yourself And Your Family

How many learning methods have you seen come and go throughout the years?

  • People buy a course that is a one-size-fits-all which leaves them with question marks around their heads.
  • Or they join a signals group where they either fail to enter a trade the mentor gives them, or the trade ends up taking a loss.
  • Or they try to learn everything on YouTube, where most of the gurus just give them a preview of their course.

We have been consistently making profits on the market and helping others do the same for over a decade. Now speaking of the ETA Community…

We are actually LEAVING MONEY ON THE TABLE by letting people inside the community and sharing our ETA Strategy Grid™.

And the other Forex mentors out there are making loads of money by offering people to join communities that don’t provide nearly as much as our ETA Community.

​

The #1 Mistake Everyone Else Makes Is Trying To Do Everything On Their Own
​

There are two types of new Forex traders out there. There are common self-directed traders and there are Elite ones.

Self-directed traders try to do everything on their own…

And by focusing on doing everything like that, they spend a lot of time on:

  • Researching and Analyzing Markets
  • Developing and Testing Strategies
  • Learning and Staying Informed

All of this requires time and energy. But the problem isn’t the model itself, it’s the fact that everything takes longer and is much more stressful…

That is the same exact thing that happened to us; which is what inspired us to create the ETA Strategy Grid™ and share it inside our ETA Community.

ETA Strategy Grid™ Allows You To Go Through These Steps Faster By Trading WITH Shaun and Josh And Learning From Them

Here’s The Counterintuitive Idea Behind Elite Trader Academy

Right now, as you’re reading this very page…

There’s a lot of activity happening in the world of Forex trading: US Elections, wars, etc.

Now, most of these people who started trading forex and lost money because they didn’t know how to leverage these events are looking for a new solution…

And as you may have guessed it - we have it.

And what’s really cool is that since Shaun and I have leveraged events like COVID, we know how these events impact the market and alongside our members use that to our advantage.

What we’re saying is if your goal is to become a profitable Forex trader and make profits consistently, it’s significantly easier and faster to do it in a team with people who have done it before and will show you how; as opposed to trying to figure everything out on your own.

We realize this is a completely free trial offer and that we’re practically giving it away… And you’re probably wondering:
​

“If you’re doing so well with this, why would you give it away for free?”

So there has to be a “catch”… We know there are some websites out there that offer you a great deal on something, but then they stick you in some program that charges your card every month, and you can’t cancel it.

This isn't one of them. You won't need to enter your credit card info during the 14 day free trial, and at the end, you won't be forced to commit.

We’re literally giving you access to this entire community, for completely free for the first 14 days, as a means of "putting my best foot forward" and demonstrating real value. Our hope is that you'll love it and this will be the start of a good business relationship for years to come.

But with all that said, there is ONE thing to keep in mind:
​

THIS WON'T LAST LONG!!

We could easily sell access to this community for $347 or even more. Shaun even had a community before which was priced around $200 per month.

But then we realized - Hey, we’re just sharing what we love doing and are good at…

So We Decided To Give Everybody A Chance To Join For Free For The First 14 Days

To Help More Aspiring Traders Become Profitable Without Spending Hours Analyzing The Markets And Losing Thousands Of Dollars

We consider this a true Win/Win. We’re making this offer with the hope that you'll be very impressed with what we’re giving you today, and you'll want to do more business with us in the future.

Anyway - with all of that said, this is a limited offer.

And since you’ve made it this far, we’ll assume that you’re ready to become a part of the ETA Community, so with that in mind…
