Updated June 2026.
I am Kunal Desai. I founded Bulls on Wall Street in 2008 and I have traded live every market day since 2007. Writing a comparison between my own company and Live Traders puts me in an awkward spot, and I am not going to pretend otherwise.
Here is what makes this one different from most competitor comparisons you will read. I have no beef with these guys. I have never met Anmol Singh or Jared Wesley in person, but Anmol and I are friends on Instagram and Facebook and we chat once in a while. He seems like a genuinely nice guy. From everything I have seen, they run a real operation with real students.
So this is not a takedown. This is the comparison I would give a friend who asked me straight: which one fits me? Where Live Traders is the better fit for you, I will say so. Where BOWS is, I will tell you why. Both companies have plenty of marketing you can read if you want hype.
Live Traders, founded around 2015 by Anmol Singh and Jared Wesley, teaches classic day trading and swing trading built on clean charts and pure price action, with education spanning stocks, forex, and options and a heavy emphasis on trading psychology. Bulls on Wall Street, founded in 2008 by Kunal Desai, teaches one named momentum system, built on the Bone Zone, the 1% Rule, and the Free Trade exit, through the live 60-Day Trading Bootcamp and a single BullsVision room covering day trading, swing trading, and options. BOWS has trained over 7,000 students and holds a 4.6 Trustpilot rating across 445 reviews. Live Traders reports over a thousand traders trained with roughly 300 Trustpilot reviews.
What Live Traders Does Well
Credit where it is due, because plenty of it is due.
Their charts are clean. No indicators. Pure price action. If you have watched Jared lecture on YouTube, you know the style: candles, support, resistance, relative strength, and nothing else on the screen. It is a nice clean way to trade if you want less noise, and for certain traders that minimalism is exactly right.
The psychology depth is real. Anmol has built an entire lane around the mental game, with books and full courses dedicated to mindset and discipline. Most trading educators treat psychology as a chapter. Live Traders treats it as a pillar, and after 27 years in markets I can tell you the mental side is where most traders actually die. They take it seriously.
Jared came up through the proprietary trading world, and it shows in how he teaches structure and trade planning. They also offer students a path toward prop trading, which most education services do not.
And their room culture, from the reviews and from what students who have spent time there tell me, is honest about losses. They show red days. That matters.
The Real Difference: Less Noise or More Rails
Here is where the two programs genuinely split, and it has nothing to do with who is the better trader.
Live Traders asks you to read price directly. Clean chart, no indicators, your eyes and the candles. That approach rewards experience. The problem for a newer trader is that it asks you to make judgment calls using judgment you have not built yet. The chart is clean because all the work is happening in your head.
I teach it differently. My students get a named framework with confirmation layers stacked into every entry. The five setups I trade every day are all entered and managed off the Bone Zone, the shaded area between the 9 and 20 EMA. Price pulls into the zone, volume declines, a green candle holds, VWAP confluence confirms. Each layer is a rail. A newer trader does not have to feel the trade. The trade either checks the boxes or it does not.
Same market. Same candles. Two philosophies. Less noise, or more rails.
Neither one is wrong. Plenty of experienced traders thrive on naked charts. But after training 7,000+ students, I built my system around rails on purpose, because rails are what keep a developing trader alive long enough to develop the judgment in the first place. Every rule in my risk management system exists for that exact reason.

Who Should Pick Live Traders
Be honest with yourself about how you learn.
Pick Live Traders if minimal charts genuinely appeal to you, if you want forex education alongside stocks, if the psychology and mindset material is what you know you need most, or if the prop trading route is your goal. Their lane is real and they run it well.
Who Should Pick Bulls on Wall Street
Pick BOWS if you want a defined system with named rules instead of open-ended judgment. If you want day trading, swing trading, and options in one room under one subscription instead of stacking separate services. If you want the structure of a live 60-day curriculum where you simulate first, build a trading business plan, and only go live when your data supports it. That no live trading during class rule is not a marketing line. It is the reason our students survive their first year.
And if you are not sure, that is literally what the $7 BullsVision trial is for. Sit in the room. Watch me trade live. Decide with your own eyes.
How to Vet Any Trading Educator, Including Both of Us
Do not take my word for any of this, and do not take theirs. Read both Trustpilot pages in full, the critical reviews especially. Check any claimed regulatory history yourself on FINRA BrokerCheck. The SEC publishes a plain-English guide on researching before you commit money that applies just as well to trading education as it does to investments. Any educator worth paying will survive that homework.
FAQ: Live Traders vs Bulls on Wall Street
Is Live Traders legit? Yes. Founded around 2015 by Anmol Singh and Jared Wesley, it is a real education company with real students and a long-running live room. This comparison is about fit, not legitimacy.
Which is better for beginners? BOWS is likely the better fit for most beginners because the framework gives you confirmation rails before your judgment is developed, and the no live trading during class rule prevents the early blowup that ends most trading careers. A disciplined beginner drawn to minimalist price action can absolutely learn at Live Traders.
Do they teach the same strategies? There is overlap in the classic setups, but the philosophy differs. Live Traders teaches clean-chart price action. BOWS teaches a named framework where the candles, the Bone Zone, volume, and VWAP all have to agree before an entry. You can see exactly what that looks like in my opening range breakout guide.
How do the prices compare? Live Traders sells courses and room access as separate products. BOWS bundles day trading, swing trading, and options into one BullsVision subscription with a $7 trial, and the 60-Day Bootcamp is a separate application-based program.
Can I try either one cheaply? Live Traders offers a free consultation call. BOWS offers the $7 BullsVision trial, which puts you inside the actual live room with no commitment.
Who teaches at each company? Anmol Singh and Jared Wesley at Live Traders. At BOWS, I teach day trading and run the live screenshare daily, and Paul Singh, my original mentor since 2006, leads swing trading and options.
Does BOWS compare itself to other services? Yes. Read the Warrior Trading comparison and the full day trading chatroom rankings for the complete landscape.
Do I need $25,000 to start with either program? No. You can learn and simulate with any account size. Once you go live, the PDT rule limits accounts under $25,000 to three day trades per rolling five days, which is exactly why I wrote a full playbook on day trading with a small account.
What is the Bone Zone? The shaded area between the 9 EMA and 20 EMA. It is the entry zone, the trailing-stop guide, and the core of how every BOWS setup gets managed. It is the clearest example of the rails philosophy in action.
The Bottom Line
Two real companies. Two honest philosophies. If less noise is your style, Anmol and Jared run a legitimate shop. If you want rails, a named system, and one room that covers everything, that is what I have built since 2008.
Start with the $7 trial, or if you are ready for the full program, apply for the 60-Day Bootcamp.
