Beginner Program curriculum

Beginner Trading Course

Start with the financial concepts most people were never taught. The programme begins at what a share actually is and does not assume you have seen any of it before — ownership, then how the market works, then risk, then a trade you place yourself.

You trade from Day 1

Practise the same day you learn it

Each stage is taught, then done the same day. You place your first simulated order on Day 1, and every day after it includes simulator practice, review and instructor feedback.

  1. Labor vs. Ownership

    I can own productive assets

    Learn why ownership changes how wealth is built.

  2. What Is Stock Ownership

    Stocks represent real companies

    Find out what a share actually is — and what you own when you hold one.

  3. How the Stock Market Works

    Understanding the marketplace

    See how buyers and sellers meet, and what the bid, ask and spread really mean.

  4. How Prices Actually Move

    Understanding buyers and sellers

    Understand why prices move: volume, trend, and who is in control.

  5. Capital Protection

    How much can I safely risk?

    Decide how much you can safely risk before you ever press Buy.

  6. Executing the Trade

    Controlled buying and selling

    Place a real order ticket — limit vs market — in the simulator, with the instructor beside you.

  7. Supervised Simulation

    Guided practical experience

    Trade the closing bell under supervision, then review every decision.
