Forex Trading - Beginners and Experienced - Learn trading by Doing! Live examples: Forex with Real Money in Metatrader 4

Created by: ForexBoat Team

Last updated March 2023

Our take

Based on the ratings of 23,565 students, a sample of their written reviews and the syllabus, as the course stood in March 2023. No course pays to be reviewed.

Kirill Eremenko's forex course is a 5.3 hour primer built from 55 lectures across nine sections. It covers currency pairs, bid and ask, leverage, pips, order types, fundamental and technical analysis, the MetaTrader 4 platform and risk sizing. It is aimed at complete beginners, and the only stated requirement is an open mind. Nearly 97,000 students have enrolled, so it is a well-trodden entry point rather than a niche pick.

Reviewers like the plain explanations, the way risk management keeps coming back, and the live trades with real money, which one reviewer says showed how to place an order. Leverage and lot size calculation get specific thanks. The complaints are consistent. The footage mostly dates from 2014 and 2015, the platform looks different now, and the last update was March 2023. Critics also say the live trades show what he did without teaching how to find entries, and one reviewer reported videos that would not play.

About 61 percent of ratings are five stars and about 2 percent are one or two, so most people leave satisfied. Treat it as vocabulary and mechanics, not a trading system. At 5.3 hours it is a quick first step, and reviewers who already knew a little still found the refresher handy. It is a fair pick if you are brand new to forex. Anyone wanting real depth on reading charts should plan to add a second course.

Best forComplete beginners who want forex vocabulary, leverage and lot-size basics, plus a look at live trades.
Skip it ifYou want a repeatable entry strategy or step-by-step chart analysis with up-to-date platform footage.

Pros

  • Explains leverage, bid and ask, pips and order types in plain terms for people with zero background
  • Risk and lot size calculation is repeated throughout, and reviewers call it useful
  • Live real-money trades show how to place an order in MetaTrader 4
  • Short at 5.3 hours, so a beginner can finish it in a weekend or two

Cons

  • Footage dates from 2014 and 2015, and the MetaTrader screens look dated to reviewers
  • Live trades show what was done but do not teach entry analysis step by step
  • Chart analysis is brief, with technical analysis only about 54 minutes in total
Perfect for a beginner in trading with no knowledge at all. All the basic terms are explained.

Beginner level is accurate: it assumes nothing, so experienced traders will find mostly review.

Understanding the basic on how trading works. Like the leverage, how it works and the reason why broker can lend you the that much fund and where and how they take it off your balance.

By Willy Henry Kiggundu on 7/17/2026

It is like a history class. If u have never seen any other tutorial then u cant gain anything. If he emphasized. The course is none practical in-fact i was super excited and i thought the live trading session will be teaching but he was just showing what he did. At least he would show step by step even putting the MAs and other markings etc. Money wasted

By Ogeikpe Nwogu on 5/29/2026

I have found this course to be very instrumental to my understanding of the principles, mechanics and technical tools and parameters that enhance trading as a beginner. Now, it is up to me to engage someone as a mentor in this regard.

By Luther J Jackson III on 5/23/2026

Loving the history of FOREX and the Gold Standard, the laid out Table of Content, the clarity in which the Instructor speaks and the layout. It's simple and I can't wait to get started, but I'm not rushing anything at all!!! Such a great course!!!

By Rahul K Anand on 4/30/2026

I started this tutorial without any prior knowledge of trading, and honestly, I didn’t even understand the basic concepts in the beginning. But after going through the lessons step by step, I now have a clear understanding of how trading works. The explanations are simple, practical, and easy to follow, which helped me build my knowledge from zero to a level where I can understand charts, news, and basic trading strategies. I really appreciate how the course breaks down complex topics into simple ideas. Now I feel much more confident and have more than just a little knowledge about trading. This tutorial is a great starting point for beginners like me.

By Seyed Farzad Rastegar Shariatpanahi on 4/27/2026

I used to trade on a amateur level a few years ago, when I decided to jump back in the trading world I came across this course. this has been very helpful with going through the basics very thoroughly. highly recommend for anyone who's starting out, or like myself needs a refresher on the basics.

By Ryan "Lunar" Bassil on 4/21/2026

Very good course. Very informative about strategies and what the trading biz is all about. Loved the live trading examples. Only criticism is that the videos are mostly from 2014/2015, which is a bit jarring. The app he is using doesn't exist anymore, the platform went through a "revamp" of sorts, so there is a newer version of sorts. Would be nice to have more up-to-date videos with more current markets, even though markets change all the time, 13 years is... excessive.

By Kurt Kruppok on 1/18/2026

Covered all important basics and repeated risk management every time. That's good. I had already basic knowledge about most of it, but repeating it was good and I can imagine for someone brand new, that's exactly how to get your feet wet. I'm excited to see more courses from Kirill

By Sharif Mohamedhoesein on 1/6/2026

Perfect for a beginner in trading with no knowledge at all. All the basic terms are explained. Even while the content is from 2014 and the trades it is still applicable. Live examples are good. As you are always anxious to put in a trade yourself. But the simplicity as shown gives confidence. I will do the following course for the Forex Robot as well.

By Israr Ahmed on 12/4/2025

This is the best course for beginner's. I have bought a few courses on forex beginner's learning but this one stands out as the number 1 because of its simplicity, ease of understanding and structure. Thank you, Kirill. Would definitely recommend 10/10
