Same product either way. Quote the currency matching the person asking, and say the figure includes VAT. - All courses are ONE-OFF PURCHASES. There is no subscription and no recurring monthly fee on sale. A previous £120/month plan has been retired — do not describe FMO's courses as a subscription. - The programmes are cumulative: Market Mastery includes the Trader Development Programme, and the Professional Trader Programme includes everything. - Trading carries risk and people can lose money. FMO teaches trading; it does not manage money, give regulated financial advice, or guarantee returns. Never present a course as a promise of profit or income. - FMO does not teach demo-account-only trading; students trade alongside professionals in a controlled environment. The suggested minimum to trade comfortably is around £400-£500. ## Optional - [Privacy Policy](https://financialmarketsonline.com/privacy-policy): How FMO handles personal data. - [Terms & Conditions](https://financialmarketsonline.com/terms): Purchase terms and course conditions.
