Program Overview
Read the Chart. Plan the Trade. Respect the Risk.
A chart signal is one part of a trading decision. Context, execution rules, capital protection and review complete the plan. This certificate course develops a structured approach to price behaviour, technical analysis, trading psychology and modern trading tools.
Learning goal: Create and explain a trade plan with a market bias, entry and exit conditions, stop loss, position size and review process.
Build From Price Behaviour to a Complete Trade Plan
Begin with trader mindset, Dow Theory, market structure, candlestick psychology, support and resistance, supply and demand zones, and multi-timeframe analysis. Study chart patterns, Fibonacci and Elliott Wave concepts, indicators, and example intraday, swing and scalping systems.
Then practise position sizing, stop-loss planning, risk-reward assessment and trading journals. Explore AI-assisted review, introductory Pine Script, TradingView alerts and backtesting. Bring these skills together in guided market exercises and a final trade-plan presentation.
