Course Description

Are you a beginner looking for a complete A–Z cryptocurrency trading course?

This Basic Cryptocurrency Trading Course is designed for new traders who want to build a strong foundation in crypto trading while also discovering the power of algorithmic trading with robots. Alongside the core lessons, you will receive 12 ready-to-use trading robots (Expert Advisors / EAs) — 6 for Bitcoin and 6 for Ethereum — so you can start practicing algorithmic trading right away.

I am Petko Aleksandrov, professional trader and founder of Algo Trading Space. After teaching thousands of students worldwide, many requested a beginner-friendly course that still provides practical trading tools. That’s why I created this course — to help new traders learn the basics of cryptocurrency trading and experience algorithmic trading with real strategies.

Why this course is unique

  • Covers both manual trading and algo trading from the ground up

  • Includes 12 cryptocurrency robots (6 for BTC and 6 for ETH)

  • Beginner-friendly, yet introduces professional algorithmic trading tools

  • Lifetime access and ongoing updates included

  • Personal support from me in every step of your journey

What you will learn in this Basic Cryptocurrency Trading Course

  • The fundamentals of being a cryptocurrency trader vs. investor

  • How to identify scam brokers and choose reliable trading platforms

  • How to use MetaTrader 4/5, the most trusted platform for crypto and Forex trading

  • What CFDs are, and why they are useful for cryptocurrency trading

  • How to calculate position size, lots, margin, leverage, and risk

  • Key trading concepts: spreads, swaps, timeframes, and chart types

  • How to use pending orders, stop loss, and take profit effectively

  • A tested manual trading strategy for trend and counter-trend conditions

  • How to use technical indicators to improve entries and exits

  • Introduction to strategy builders for creating algorithmic strategies

  • How to generate, test, and automate strategies into trading robots

  • How to track EA performance and decide which ones to keep

  • How to manage two accounts: one for testing, one for live trading

Why algo trading is included

While this is a basic course, I believe beginners should also experience algo trading early. That’s why I provide 12 ready-made Expert Advisors. You’ll see how they work in practice, how to test them on demo accounts, and how to select the top performers for live trading.

Using EA Studio, I will also demonstrate how professional traders generate hundreds of strategies, filter them, and automate only the most robust ones. This way, you’ll understand how algorithmic trading works even as a beginner.

Who this course is for

  • Beginner traders who want to learn cryptocurrency trading from scratch

  • Students interested in both manual trading and crypto algo trading

  • Anyone who wants to avoid costly beginner mistakes in crypto trading

Instructor Details

Petko Zhivkov Aleksandrov

My name is Petko Alexandrov, and I am a professional trader & investor.

Every year, I have over 10 000 new students joining my courses from around the world, which makes me very happy!

I have graduated from Trading in London. After that, I had many opportunities to work as an institutional trader and mentor.

I have worked for a couple of Brokers and trading companies, but there was always something missing for me because they were limiting me to create new strategies and systems for trading. Their purpose of working is different.

I started teaching, and I found out that this way, there were no limitations for me. I love to give all of my knowledge to the people that wish to learn. So I have created the first Trading Academy where you can learn algorithmic trading without IT Skills.

I can say that I deliver something different - the best strategies that I use, and I am not greedy to use them only by myself. I want more and more people to make profits from trading.

Nowadays, algorithmic trading is a must for every successful trader, and I use professional programs to develop and create all the strategies that I share in my courses. I have been testing and creating EAs for many years, and I will bring my best to you!

Incredibly detailed course with loads of information, delivered in a clear and precise manner. I'm a newbie and have watched the course twice now, and taken copious notes... picked up more understanding the second time around... & will probably watch at least one more time before I open my Demo account. That's one of the things I appreciate with Udemy, can continue to have access to my courses for as long as I want and/or need.

By Marc M on 2/28/2021

SO disappointing! MT4 so out-of-date with what's going on in 2021 crypto!! Use a Binance web interface "Advanced" trade screen to illustrate trend lines, and what CAN be done etc. Just can't really relate to this content. Sorry.

By Daniel F. Butler on 6/8/2020

Since I am a noob, this course was at just the right level of rigor for me. I had to go over setting trend lines and counter trendlines a couple of times. I learned a lot and gained confidence in applying this new knowledge. The course thus far has made me thirsty for more information.

By Indira on 4/4/2020

Course is good, but nothing about manual trading, no teaching about indicators for manual trading, where is enter point, where is out. I bought bcz manual trading was it in the course content. The course for algorithmic trading you have to buy a software for one year for 590 euro for 1 year (first 14 days is free trial), which is not convenient for beginners, who didn't earn any penny yet. Question was answered very quick form his site, which is very good.

By Anthony Thompson on 10/15/2019

Before this course I had basically no financial/investing/trading knowledge. This course was the perfect intro for me to get started into cryptocurrency trading. The knowledge and experience offered by Petko is greatly appreciated as it probably saved me years of learning from the same mistakes he has already been through. Thank you!

By John Freeman on 8/26/2019

So far, so good...just started literally 10 minutes ago. Perhaps you should wait until 25% - 50% course completion before asking this question so that people can have a real and valid opinion.

By James Almo on 7/9/2019

Just finished the program, and for me i am a beginner on Crypto and Forex trading and algorithm trading.. i have to say, that i am blown away from the Petko's teachings... also, i had some technical difficulties in the beginning of downloading all the programs that are necessary, and when i emailed or posted in his company's forum chat, not only did i receive great direction from other students that were in the chat, but also from Petko himself.. he engaged in every post i wrote. Thank you so much, and i will be following up with more of the program's that he offers. As Petko says, Cheers!

By Praveen s on 7/26/2018

Learnt a lot from this course as I am basically into crypto trading and more of a beginner . I will definitely use these approach in trading . Thanks Petko for such a wonderful lectures and with hands-on practice.

By David Taylor on 5/8/2018

The course is very detailed and there is a lots to take in. The difficulty is knowing where to start applying the information in real life on a demo account - practice important but where to start?

By Ivo Carola on 4/6/2018

I was completely new to trading when I started the course, now I'm just new to trading. Super insightful, easy to grasp, the pace is good. I had to rollback a couple of times to grasp some of the concepts regarding the trading bit, but overall totally fine. Great course, I think it's a great kick-off into trading, specially if you are focusing in automation.
