The real Consultant has already obtained the results you want to obtain

I became a Financial Consultant AFTER achieving the results I had set for myself.
Not before.

1 Million before
turning 30 years

Before being a Financial Consultant, I am an Entrepreneur. My companies make millions of euros per year and my assets exceeded one million when I was 29 years old.
I know what it means "Manage Wealth.”

I invest your money like I do with mine

Managing Wealth means knowing how to invest your savings to increase them over time, ensuring a peaceful future for you and your family.
I will invest your money exactly the same way I invest mine.

I studied to know what others don't know

Would you entrust your hard-earned savings to an advisor with no qualifications and who has never earned money through actual business? I wouldn't...
Trust a Financial Advisor with three degrees, international experience, and wealth generated through entrepreneurial activity—not just financial advisory services!

I am independent and focus only on the result

You are the only person I have to satisfy: you pay me to make you achieve your goals, otherwise I have to reimburse you twice what you spent.
Banks, Funds or other third-party companies don't pay me, so you can be sure that I'm only doing your interests.

I have been following the daily contents of TradeTector for months, and I can't help but recommend to everyone both the Academy's specific courses on Udemy and the Portfolios for those interested in investing in a conscious way. The founder, Gianluca Sidoti, is a highly trained young man with a solid academic background and experience in Maltese investment funds. Since I met him, he has immediately transmitted reliability and security to me.

I have been following Gianluca Sidoti for some years and I can say that he is a leading company in the dissemination of economic-financial content. It provides a wide range of training courses designed to enable people to manage their assets with awareness and independently. The contents are presented in a simple way and are therefore easily understandable, regardless of everyone's level of education.

I am writing this review today following the “Learn Earn Share Conference” of 05.10.2024 even though I have been following Tradetector for a long time, who still accompanies people today, skilfully and competently in various financial issues thanks to his training courses. It also offers many services such as replicable model portfolios and also various opportunities. I personally have known this company and its founder Gianluca for a few years and I must admit that competence and honesty immediately distinguished the entire work of Tradetector and that is why, after many years, I am still following the training and services offered with passion.
Francesco Narducci
Naples - Italy
Great professionalism and lots of very high value content!
Finally everyone can access financial literacy... And not only that!

Gianluca is not the usual pseudo-guru who talks about so many beautiful things, fueling false hopes.
Gianluca is concrete, he uses terminology dictated by great experience.
In short: Gianluca Sidoti is Number One!
TradeTector is the TOP!
Alessandro Gionfri
Agrigeto - Italy
In the immense world of investors, you encounter all possible realities. What strikes me about Gianluca and the whole Tradetector world is the maturity and the wisdom with which practically all topics in the financial world are addressed. With Gianluca, I learned to know and appreciate the very concept of “investing in the long term to build a portfolio tailored to the investor's needs.” Now then with Tradetector Pro we have moved to another level. Great work... Compliments.

I have been following Sidoti for a few years, with him I am making an investment plan and I continue to learn new things with online courses. The platform offers a lot of possibilities both from a training point of view and investment advice. In addition, a very positive aspect is the continuous updating of both aspects, new content and new investment opportunities are constantly being added. A very positive experience for me.
Maria Grazi D'Ambrosio
Milan - Italy
Getting to know Gianluca and TradeTector was a real turning point for me. Even if it's only a few weeks since I joined this family, if we want to call it that in quotes. Thanks to their services, I was able to start my journey as a wealth educator with a solid knowledge base. The contents are extremely educational and operational, and the support they offer is simply exceptional. The possibility of interacting directly with experts, such as Gianluca Sidoti, has made learning even more effective and personalized. I can only recommend TradeTector to anyone who wants to deepen their skills in the field of finance and investments.
Daniele Dacchille

I have always been fascinated by finance, but not knowing its mechanisms, I have always stayed away from it. With TradeTector by Sidoti, his courses, his Sunday appointments, his pills, Reginald, I am satisfying my passion. I can only thank you and hope that it will continue like this.

Growing and interesting group.
We need to spend a little time on it and I admit that I have fallen behind as a newbie in stock market investments. But by dedicating the right time, you can make good money by following their instructions.

I signed up for the 'Income generator' service a few weeks ago. It is very easy to follow, thanks to the telegram channel where you receive announcements about new operations and the application with which to carry out the training part.

You have the questions. We have the answers.

Some of the most frequently asked questions.
For other questions, send the Application and talk to one of our Tutors.
How does the Titanium Program work?

After submitting your application, which you can send HERE, you'll receive a call from one of Gianluca Sidoti’s collaborators, who will answer any further questions you may have about the service.
If our staff believes you're a good fit for the program, you'll be connected directly with Gianluca Sidoti to begin the initial Check-Up phase.
The Check-Up is designed to provide a detailed snapshot of your current situation, including your:
- Assets and Liabilities (overall net worth)
- Income and Expenses (cash flow)
- Financial Investments (existing investments, if any)
- Real Estate (property holdings, if any)
- Business Interests (ownership stakes in companies, if applicable)
- Tax Situation
Please note, the Check-Up does not include personalized investment advice at this stage.
Additionally, you'll have the opportunity to replicate more than 15 portfolios with the support of Gianluca Sidoti for 12 months, after which you'll be fully equipped to independently manage your wealth.

How does the Initial CheckUp work?

The Initial Check-Up provides a detailed analysis of your current situation in terms of:
- Net Worth (assets and liabilities)
- Cash Flow (income and expenses)
- Financial Situation (ongoing investments)
- Real Estate Holdings (property ownership)Business Interests (company shares or stakes)
- Tax Position
This service is intended solely for informational purposes, as the report is prepared independently by the client and does not include any personalized investment advice.
The goal is to provide you with a clear, comprehensive view of your financial situation, empowering you to independently make more informed financial decisions.

How do you guarantee a minimum return?

Returns cannot be guaranteed. However, we do guarantee educational resources and actionable strategies based on thorough market analysis to support you in optimizing your investment decisions. Furthermore, if you are not satisfied with the service received, you will be entitled to a refund equal to twice the amount paid. This right does not constitute a guarantee of financial performance but demonstrates our commitment to delivering exceptional service quality.

How much does the Titanium Program cost?

Titanium is an educational and operational program designed to help you regain control of your savings within 12 months and establish consistent, predictable income streams through investments.
It’s a unique offering, as there are no fixed monthly fees—except for a one-time initial Set-Up Fee. Instead, the program operates on a Performance Fee model: depending on your chosen Tier, you'll only pay us a percentage (between 20% and 30%) of your net monthly profits.

What's the difference between Tier Silver, Gold and Platinum?

The Silver Plan is ideal for those who want to start investing like a professional by leveraging TraDetector's proprietary automated software, without an initial wealth analysis or access to the educational content.
The key difference between the other two Plans—Gold and Platinum—lies in the target returns we aim to achieve within 12 months.
In all three cases, you'll maintain full lifetime access to the services included in your selected Plan, without any additional costs.

If I lose money, you don't lose anything anyway. Isn't this a conflict of interest?

No, and here's why:
The TITANIUM performance-based model is structured to align our interests with yours: we only earn if you earn. However, as with any investment, market fluctuations are natural and inevitable. With that said, consider the following key points:
1️⃣ We indirectly share your risk:
If the portfolio doesn't perform, we receive no performance fees. This provides us with a direct incentive to maximize your long-term results.
2️⃣ Strategic and prudent approach:
We are not speculative traders aiming for short-term gains. Instead, we adopt comprehensive risk management and capital optimization strategies designed to limit losses and steadily grow your portfolio over time.
3️⃣ Zero costs during negative periods:
Unlike traditional advisory services or financial products, we apply no fixed fees—precisely because we believe in our model. If your portfolio experiences a downturn, we earn nothing, whereas traditional consultancy models still charge clients fees even when portfolios decline.
4️⃣ Consistent risk management:
At TITANIUM, we don't simply chase returns. Instead, we rigorously apply risk management practices, including diversification, capital protection, and regular portfolio rebalancing.
The real question isn’t whether the advisor loses money alongside you, but rather if they're genuinely incentivized to help you earn. With our performance-based advisory model, our success is tied directly to yours. The more you earn, the more we earn. That's why we're committed to protecting your capital and making it grow.

What happens after 12 months?

At the end of the advisory period, you will retain access to all Model Portfolios and the educational platform. You'll be able to continue following Gianluca Sidoti's guidance and independently manage your wealth.
Titanium is NOT a subscription-based program, and there are no hidden costs or obligations.

Payment Information

The Set-Up Fee is the only fixed cost that you will need to pay upfront, whereas the Performance Fee will be charged only as a percentage of the profits achieved.
For more details regarding the Set-Up costs, we invite you to Apply HERE and speak directly with a Wealth Advisor.
Payments can conveniently be made by credit or debit card, PayPal, or bank transfer upon invoice or receipt issuance. We also accept cryptocurrency payments.

How does it work from a tax perspective?

From a tax standpoint, you won’t have to worry about a thing, as your Private Area will provide clear instructions for downloading all the tax forms you need to hand over to your accountant for your tax return.
Alternatively, you can rely on our accountants—at no additional cost—to prepare the necessary financial reports for you.

Is it possible to pay in installments?

Yes, you can spread the payment of the Set-Up Fee over a period of up to 12 months, subject to a small surcharge. This way, you can potentially offset the cost of the service with the returns generated by your portfolio.

How much money should I have to work with Gianluca Sidoti?

There are no minimum or maximum capital requirements to work with Gianluca Sidoti: you can participate in the Titanium program with the amount you prefer, whether it's a few thousand euros or several million.
What you should consider is the immense and immeasurable value of having Gianluca Sidoti by your side for 12 months, along with access to the most comprehensive financial education platform worldwide, and lifetime access to 15 Model Portfolios (bonus value: over €5,000 per year).

What are the risks?

Risk tolerance is highly personal and depends on the specific Portfolio you choose to follow. We've developed 3 distinct Plans, each aligned with different risk profiles in compliance with MiFID II regulations.
Each Tier clearly indicates the historical drawdown your Portfolio might experience during the year, based on past performance. You can freely choose the Plan that best matches your risk profile, supported by Gianluca Sidoti and our team of Wealth Advisors. However, please always remember that past results are not indicative of future performance.

Is Titanium a Financial Advisory service?

No, the Titanium program does not integrate investment advice.
The general consultancy activity does not constitute an investment service and is not subject to any Financial Service regulations, but rather identifies an activity that can be exercised freely, as it is not covered by a legal reserve. In fact, neither Gianluca Sidoti nor his collaborators are required to know your personal situation, your risk appetite and/or your investment objectives.
If you prefer to opt for a personalized consultancy service, you can request information from the Consultants of Citadines Capital SCF.

What are your qualifications?

I'm a Financial Advisor registered with Italy's official registry (OCF Resolution no. 1664 of May 31, 2021) and founding partner of Citadines Capital SCF SRL, one of the largest independent financial advisory firms in Italy.
I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Business Economics and Management from Rome, a Master of Science in International Business from London, a Master in International Finance from Boston, a Master's in Technical Analysis from Milan, and an MBA in Global Economics from Geneva.
I'm the only Italian member of the Forbes America Finance Council.
I've authored three books and established offices in Milan, Zurich, London, Dubai, and Luxembourg.

How does the selection and collaboration process work?

The first step is to submit your Application. Once received, a member of my team will reach out for an initial introductory call to explain the service in detail and answer any questions you might have.
If you're deemed eligible, we'll proceed by scheduling a call to introduce you to the Wealth Check-Up, which you'll complete independently with guidance from Gianluca Sidoti.
Following this, you'll gain access to our Investment Portfolios, which you can independently replicate on your personal accounts using the insights gathered during your Wealth Check-Up.

Why do I need to apply to work with you?

Gianluca Sidoti is the only professional worldwide offering a full fee refund if you're not satisfied with your experience. To consistently meet (and exceed, whenever possible) our clients' expectations, we choose to work exclusively with a limited number of carefully selected individuals.
Generally, we accept no more than one new investor per month, which means the waiting list can sometimes exceed six months.

How does the Money Back Guarantee work?

The Titanium Guarantee allows you to request a refund equal to 200% of your Set-Up Fee if you're not satisfied with the service provided during the previous 12 months. This guarantee applies exclusively to the Gold and Platinum Tiers.
To request the refund, simply send an email to hello@gianlucasidoti.com, and we will promptly return twice the amount of your initial payment—no explanations required.

Can I only pay for a Consultation?

No, as of 2025, personalized financial advisory services with Gianluca Sidoti are no longer available. However, you can still collaborate with the experts at Citadines Capital SCF, the Independent Financial Advisory firm founded by Gianluca Sidoti himself.
