After now being a full-time day trader and investor for over 8 years, I decided to create these courses here on Udemy in the hopes that new traders will be able to avoid the same mistakes that I made when I first got started trading and will be able to achieve the financial freedom that comes with it in a much shorter period of time than it took me!
My courses are designed to benefit both brand new traders with no prior experience and even traders with years of practice. I start from the basics in my courses and gradually get more advanced in each lecture. Every lesson is followed by a short multiple-choice quiz to ensure that the student understands what was taught in the previous lesson!

Excellently presented and very informative. With only one hour I really got a feel of what trading is all about. Very important course for anyone thinking of trading. Thank you so much!

Great information for someone who knows next to nothing about chart analysis. Definitely recommend taking more than just this course before beginning practice trading. This will definitely explain a lot of concepts that other courses assume you already know.
By Brandon Smith on 5/10/2025
It's very well put together and it's at the right pace for some one trying to learn how to get into trading because sometimes people can go to fast and it's easy to fall behind, I guess it just depends on the person.
By Kevin Smith on 4/18/2025
Loved every minute of this course❤️❤️❤️,It was straight to the point and very easy to understand. I learned a lot and will apply all of the education and skills that I got from this course. I hope this teacher has more courses on Classcentral and Udemy cuz I’m gonna actively search for his name. Thanks a million.

Honestly, I took notes on the lecture videos and implemented them over the span of the week following the course and using a demo account actually saw results. This was the first course I took, and I highly recommend it.
By Warwick Potgieter on 7/16/2024
As a beginner its hard to give feedback on something one does not know. With that said, the material in this cpurse definitely helped me in getting a better understanding of trading and the terminologies that go with it.
By Sumit Yadav on 6/8/2024
I though this will include every minor details as per a beginners view. But it was a advance one, so I did not understand much.
By Simon Zlachevsky on 6/4/2024
I'm new to day trading. I'm a long-term investing guy, looking to switch to short-term trading. A lot of the terms are new to me because I use to do fundamental analysis rather than technical analysis.
By Donna Schmidt on 5/30/2024
This is a great course and I appreciated the information for free. I would love to see it updated to reflect that TD Ameritrade and Charles Schwab have merged so all of the help with sorting to find stocks with the Think or Swim looks really different!
By Sharaav Sinan on 3/28/2024
It's good for a beginner course, I personally know a lot already about what's being covered, so Im not learning a whole lot. but for beginners its a brilliant way to get them introduced to this new concept of trading.
