Read The Market

RTM Membership Terms



Version dated 22 September 2026.

These terms govern membership of Read The Market (“RTM”, “we”, “us”). They apply to RTM Global and RTM Indonesia membership, to the lesson library, and to the member areas of the forum at forum.readthemarket.com. By registering, or by continuing to use your membership, you agree to them. We are the seller. Membership is sold as an annual subscription that renews automatically until cancelled; payments are processed by Stripe, whose terms cover the payment transaction only. Refunds are set out in clause 6. You can cancel at any time at billing.stripe.com/p/login/3cI9AT92G6q54JcaKdao800 (log in with the email address you used at checkout), or by contacting us at admin@readthemarket.com. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the period you have already paid for; you keep your access until then and are not charged again.

1. What membership gives you

Subject to an active membership, we grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable right to access the lesson library and the member areas of the forum belonging to your membership group (RTM Global or RTM Indonesia), for your own learning and your own trading analysis.

Membership is access to material and to a community of people working on the same thing. It is not tuition, mentoring, coaching or a personal service, and it does not include one-to-one time with If unless you purchase that separately.

We add material, revise it, and occasionally withdraw it. The library as it stands on the day you join is not a fixed catalogue, and no particular lesson, section or feature is guaranteed to remain available for the length of your term.

2. Your account

One person, one account. Your membership is personal to you and is not transferable.

  1. (a)do not share your login details with anyone, and do not allow anyone else to use your account;
  2. (b)keep your password secure, and tell us promptly if you believe someone else has access to your account;
  3. (c)give accurate registration details and keep your email address current — we cannot maintain your access without a working address;
  4. (d)you must be at least 18 years old.

We may limit the number of devices signed in to one account at the same time. Sharing an account is a breach of these terms and clause 10 applies, without refund.

3. Other members’ content is confidential

The forum contains journals, charts, trade records, losses and personal circumstances, posted by members in the understanding that what they write stays inside the member area. That understanding is the reason the forum is worth anything.

You may not copy, republish, quote, screenshot, forward, or otherwise disclose outside the member area any other member’s posts, journals, charts, images, private messages, identity, or any other content from behind the login. This applies while you are a member and continues after your membership ends.

This clause is about other people’s material, not about your own. Nothing here restricts what you say about your own learning, your own trading, or your own experience of RTM.

4. Our material

The lessons, videos, written material, charts, diagrams, illustrations and other content we publish are our copyright, or are used by us under licence. Your membership gives you the right to use them yourself. It does not transfer ownership of anything.

You may not, and may not permit or assist anyone else to:

  1. (a)copy, republish, distribute, sell, rent, sublicense or otherwise make our material available to anyone who is not a member, including by posting it to any forum, file-sharing service, marketplace, messaging group or private group;
  2. (b)systematically record, scrape or bulk-download the lesson library or the forum;
  3. (c)use our material to produce a course, training programme, book, video series or other product that reproduces or substantially reproduces it;
  4. (d)teach our material for payment, or present it as your own.

You may keep notes you have written yourself, and you keep them after your membership ends. The right to use our material ends when your membership ends.

5. Term, renewal and cancellation

Membership runs for one year from the date your payment clears, and renews automatically each year at the price then in force, unless you cancel before the renewal date.

You may cancel at any time, through the billing portal or by emailing us. Cancellation stops the next charge; it does not end your current period, and you keep your access until that period runs out.

We will email the address on your account before a renewal charge is taken.

Members who joined before 24 July 2026, when the subscription option was introduced, hold the term they paid for under the arrangement in force at the time. Nothing charges those memberships automatically, and they end at the end of the term unless renewed by a new purchase.

6. Price, payment and refunds

The price is the one shown at checkout, in euro, and includes any tax we are required to charge. Payments are processed by Stripe; some earlier memberships were paid through PayPal. If a renewal payment fails, we may suspend access until it is resolved.

Initial purchase — no refund. Membership gives you immediate access to the whole lesson library and to the member forum. By completing checkout you expressly request immediate supply and acknowledge that you thereby lose the statutory 14-day right of withdrawal, in accordance with EU consumer law. This does not affect rights that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Renewals. If a renewal is charged and you did not want it, write to us within 14 days of the charge. If you have not logged in since the renewal date, we will refund that charge in full and end the membership. This is in addition to your right to cancel before renewal under clause 5.

7. Conduct in the forum

Argue about charts, not about people. Harassment, abuse, and discriminatory or threatening content are not permitted and are grounds for immediate removal.

  1. (a)do not promote brokers, signal services, prop firms, courses, indicators or your own products, and do not recruit members to anything, without our written permission;
  2. (b)do not post material belonging to somebody else without the right to do so;
  3. (c)do not present trading calls, signals or recommendations as coming from RTM;
  4. (d)do not attempt to gain access to areas, accounts or data you have not been given.

We may edit or remove content, and may suspend or end an account, where this clause is breached.

8. Not investment advice

RTM is education. We teach a way of reading price on a chart. We do not tell you what to trade, do not issue signals or recommendations, do not consider your personal circumstances, and nothing we publish is an offer or inducement to trade. Every trading decision you make is yours alone.

Trading foreign exchange, CFDs and other leveraged instruments carries a high risk of losing money, and most people who attempt it lose money. Nothing on our sites is a promise of a return, and results described by us or by any member are not a guide to what you will achieve. We are not an investment firm and do not provide investment advice, personal recommendations, or portfolio management.

9. Availability, warranty and liability

Membership is provided “as is”. We do not warrant uninterrupted or error-free access to the sites, the forum or the lesson library, and maintenance, outages and third-party failures happen.

To the maximum extent permitted by law we exclude all implied warranties, and we are not liable for trading losses, lost profits, or indirect or consequential loss. Our total liability under these terms is capped at the membership fees you paid us in the 12 months before the claim. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, including for death or personal injury caused by negligence or for fraud, and nothing affects statutory rights you have as a consumer.

10. Suspension and termination

We may suspend or end your membership immediately, without refund, if you breach clause 2, 3, 4 or 7.

We may also end a membership for any other reason, in which case we refund the unused part of the period you have paid for.

On termination or expiry your access ends. Clauses 3, 4, 8, 9 and 12 survive.

11. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms for future membership periods. We will give notice to the email address on your account before the change takes effect, and continued membership or renewal after that date is acceptance. Changes do not apply retrospectively to a period you have already paid for.

12. General

These terms are governed by the laws of Ireland and the courts of Ireland have non-exclusive jurisdiction, provided that if you are a consumer resident in another EU member state you retain any protection and forum rights granted by the law of your residence. If any clause is found unenforceable the rest remain in force. These terms, together with the price and period you chose at checkout, are the entire agreement for your membership.

Membership is not available where sanctions or other law prevent us from supplying it or from taking payment.

How we handle your personal information is set out in our privacy policy, which forms part of these terms.
