About Goat Academy by Felix Prehn

Written by the company

After working as a lawyer and an investment banker at one of the biggest law firms and banks in London, Hong Kong, Felix Prehn got tired of the aimless corporate grind that forced him to prioritise his work over his health and relationships.

So Felix Prehn turned to running his own business, but even still he was a glorified employee who had to show up in order to get paid. He turned to trading when he was hospitalised because of a back injury that came from chronic stress and overwork, but the worst part was that it would’ve cost $50,000 to operate on… Money he didn’t have at the time. At that point, his income was completely cut off because he couldn’t punch in the hours to get paid, yet his bills continued to climb.

Having no choice, Felix used his network and experience as an investment banker to learn how to trade from his hospital bed so he could at least make a side income to pay his bills. Before he knew it, within 10 months he had completely replaced his business income (and his previous corporate salary) with the income that came from his trades. So instead of having to wake up early, clock in, and get paid based on the amount of hours he worked… Felix was finally able to wake up feeling like every day was a weekend, have full control of his schedule, and make a comfortable income working a fraction of the hours he did as a lawyer and banker.

In 2020, Felix and his adopted Golden Retriever, Winston, started a YouTube channel called Felix and Friends to educate people struggling because of job loss, hour cuts, and income losses because of the pandemic to create an extra stream of income through trading for a few hours a week

Since then, he’s grown the channel to over 100,000 subscribers and has taught over 9000 students inside of GOAT Academy with his team of ex investment bankers how they can create more freedom, provide better for their families, and live life on their terms by replacing their 40-60 hour work weeks as corporate employees for becoming their own boss and “working” part time hours.

Today, Felix aims to provide real financial education that schools and universities have never provided to over 1 million people so they can stop getting taken advantage of by the corporate and banking systems, and instead, take back control of their time and finances to become better sons, daughters, brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, friends, and community leaders.

Recommend for any trader

Making money in good times is easy - everyone is genius.

This program enabled me to learn how to make money in bad times, when there is blood in the streets... Developing proper risk management model, screening and technical expertise, macro level understanding, building proper psycology, consistency and not doing FOMO, and lots of other highly important issues enable me to beat the key benchmarks. Great instructors, experts of the field! My only regret is joining to this program quite late.

And special thanks to Vanda - Client Success Manager, who helped me to nagivate through the challenging processes and steps with ease.

Investment Journey

My investment journey has been rocky oh a good day. The Goat Academy is taking me awhile to figure out because there's a lot to learn. It's giving me the tools to finally be in control of my investments instead of hoping or guessing. I still have a lot to learn but today way a good session with Dominic. Thanks everyone at the Goat Academy.

The whole group of folks have been great. Supportive, informative, and flexible. My main contact has been Ella 'Bella'. She's smart and friendly and seems to always gets the answers. Ella has guided me through the program and platform... Five Stars all the way. Also, the NYC event was fun - it was good to meet the Felix, the coaches, and team.

Real with deliverables to be used way beyond course timeline

This is a real program that utilizes a sincere and robust pedagogical approach for building up those who want to interact smartly with the market.

It is not a program where some dude is trying to make some money off of unsuspecting customers.

Coaches are available in group calls. The lessons buttress the knowledge and operational base for someone eager to learn intelligent, organized trading. Working? Watch the recorded calls later.

The time put in is critical. I have been in the program for 6 months, have learned a lot and have easily paid for the program fee. I have elected to remain with it for another 12 months to solidify my foundation.

** CUSTOMER SUPPORT IS OUTSTANDING **

They are a very trustworthy company with a lot of knowledge in the markets. i have learnt a lot while being with them and wish i had discovered them years ago. The support staff and coaches are all terrific people who know what they are talking about. They are always eager to help with any questions and very easily contactable. Worth every cent you spend.

Great education program

A few weeks into the program and it seems well organized and structured, focusing on teaching institutional based investment principles as a success foundation, supplemented with a broad set of training information. I can comment more as I progress through the program, but so far, I see a structured learning path on a great website, with lots of choices for individualized trainings in areas that may be important to me. Trainings are live, recorded, and archived for use when it fits my schedule (or for repeating as needed; important for me). Training includes things like broker selection/setup, finding sector strength/momentum, stock screening/selection tools, trade entry, trade exits, risk management, charting, candlesticks, market assessments, etc. (and more). I also chose an upgraded option offering individualized question/answer sessions (coaching) from a panel of industry experts with decades of experience. I’m not ready for the coaching part yet, but anticipate it will be a great benefit to augment the basic program. Another benefit is that everyone is assigned a Client Success Manager … a great asset so far (Thanks Hannah Bootes!). Seems to be a great education program from what I can see and have experienced so far.

Rules, Risk Management and Consistency as Path to Success

4 month ago I joined the Goat Academy with some background in stock investing, but I was not very successful. In hindsight it was a mess, to be honest. There was that growing urge in me either get a proper education about trading / investing or quit altogether.
As many other fellow students, I had watched Felix's videos on Youtube, and I liked the well digestable content. So, I decided to apply for the Goat Academy.
From the first day in the program, I was really glad about the well structured approach in order to learn the bits and pieces of the Wall Street Protocol (WSP). My Customer Success Manager onboarded me properly to do the basic things first and asked me to book a 1:1 call with a coach she suggested. Having a 1:1 call with a coach that you can ask all your "stupid" questions is really important because is builds accountabilty to improve and ask more intelligent questions next time ;-)
Consuming all the content of the WSP is one part but the crucial step is putting it into practice. That (at least for me) took a lot of effort, 1 hour per day is realistic.
The core of the WSP is about applying to rules (not very complicated but breaking them can become costly). Things like a proper screening process (finding trade opportunities), risk management (stay in the game) and exit strategies (when to take profit) need to be learned and applied consistently.
After 4 mounth in the program, my expectancy is about 0, that means on average I don't win nor loose money per trade. I hope that I can push that in the positive soon together with my experienced coach. Thank you Frederic :-)
To be fully honest: I experienced more losses than winners so far but I also learned by now that this is normal and I have to slowly adapt to it over time. If you loose 1% of you capital 5 times in a row, which is statistically possible, you should not get mentally hurt or break the rules. So be patient and trade small, you'll scale later with confidence ;-)
Mentioning trading (investing) capital: as the program is not really cheap one should be prepared to put at least some 10 K$ to work mid to long term.
Bottom line: be prepared to put some effort in, work with your coach and you'll be rewarded with decent skills to manage your money even under stressfull conditions as the WSP will guide you.

Caution Needed

Same bait and switch tactics used to sell expensive paid mentoring and coaching. Approaches he demonstrated to signal stock purchases seemed unconvincing and unreliable. Seems to be highlighted as a scammer and fraud on You Tube as well.

Caution advised.

Initial call

Jeremy Moussa was very clear explaining the program, the required time and responsibilities from the alumni, he was very open to hear about me and my husband who joined the call; and helped us with the few questions we had.

5 Stars says it all!

I came here to learn and improve my knowledge and skills. They have delivered in just the first week. I have yet to come across anyone in this organization that I did not feel comfortable with. Very knowledgable. Very helpful. Organized and professional website and curriculum. You can take it slow at 3 hrs a week, or you can gobble it down, like I have. Live classes available 7 days a week. Private coaching. Recorded classes. Written material. Research material. Guidance at every turn. If you are serious about getting better at investing/trading, I highly recommend the Goat Academy.

1-1 sessions with the coaches are fantastic

I am really enjoying my time in the Goat academy, especially the 1-1 sessions with the coaches. Prior to joining I had no experience with trading, only long term investing in funds, this was no issue, they teach from the very basics. There are several live group sessions each day with different themes, there are also open Q&A. Where the program really shines is in the 1-1 sessions with the coaches (optional add-on), I would highly suggest going for the 1-1 package for anyone joining, without it I feel like it would have been a very different experience. They have many different coaches that has different trading styles and background, initially this was confusing as many does not trad according to the main method taught in the course, but eventually I learned to appreciate it as opportunity to learn for traders with different views. It is amazing to be able to learn form people who have so much experience.

Over delivering!

Everyone I have had contact with has been very easy to speak with, listens extremely well and actually cares.
All instructors I have been on calls with are very good teachers, explain well, and break everything into small understandable bits.
Could not be more satisfied. Truly excited each day to learn more.
GOAT Academy’s team and structure are building my skillset for me to be successful long term!

The GOAT Academy is a skill-building accelerator!

I am 3 weeks into this process and it has already surpassed my expectations. Being new to trading, I needed people to help me get oriented. Shout out to Ella (my CMS) for being so helpful in steering me in the right direction. She made sure I had every thing I needed and made some very good recommendations for matching me up with coaches. These folks are good at what they do and they are patient with us newbies. You definitely get out of it what you put into it. Do the work and it pays off. Glad to be a part of the GOAT Academy. Thanks Team

I have really enjoyed working with the Goat Adademy staff and coaching team.

I have really enjoyed working with the team at the Goat Academy. Angelique has been a fabulous customer service partner. She has been there anytime I had a question or needed help. This gives you a lot of peace of mind as a member, especially in this AI agent CSR world. The coaches are also both knowledgeable and helpful. I have enjoyed working with Troy, Mark, GC, Elliott, Jesus, Frederick, Carlos, and others. For someone beginning their trading journey, you can't go wrong, and I highly recommend the team and experience.

I was already a successful but newbie trader, and working with the Goat Academy coaches helped me up my game and achieve a 17% return in 2025. Trading is a lonely business, and having someone to discuss your trades with and to help you improve your skills was worth every penny. Most importantly to me, Felix is a man who means what he says, and there is a unique kindness to the way he helps his students succeed. I cannot recommend this program enough!
