The credentialed faculty of trading education.
A structured syllabus, taught by Faculty who hold CMT and CFA charters. Peer-reviewed lessons, transparent broker research, and zero hype. Built for Thai and Southeast Asian traders who have outgrown signal groups.
The Syllabus
Six tracks, one continuous curriculum.
Each track is a sequence of lessons with explicit prerequisites. You can enter at Foundation regardless of experience, or take an assessment to place into an advanced track. Certificates issue on track completion with a passing assessment score.
Foundation
The mental model every trader needs before placing a first real trade — markets, orders, brokers, position sizing, chart reading, and a written plan.
Technical Analysis
Support and resistance, trend, momentum, candlestick patterns, and when the classical toolkit of TA fails.
Order Flow
The market at the resolution of individual orders — volume profile, footprint charts, and reading auction dynamics.
Risk Management
The one equation that matters, calculating risk of ruin, correlation, drawdown psychology, stop placement, and portfolio heat.
Macro Economics
Central banks, NFP releases, yield curves, currency regimes, commodities as signals, and geopolitics.
Prop Firm Track
Passing evaluations, managing funded accounts, rule discipline, and choosing a firm without being burned by marketing.
Support and Resistance: The Evidence-Based View
The oldest idea in technical analysis — and the one most abused. We examine the statistical evidence for horizontal price levels and explain when they fail.
