Learn To Trade The FOREX Market by A Trading Firm CEO. Inc: Technical Analysis, Candlesticks, Live Trading + much more

4.6
21,598 reviews

Created by: Mohsen Hassan

Last updated October 2024

Our take

Based on the ratings of 21,598 students, a sample of their written reviews and the syllabus, as the course stood in October 2024. No course pays to be reviewed.

This is a short, beginner-first tour of the forex market from Mohsen Hassan, who runs a trading firm. It runs 8.4 hours across 76 lectures and 18 sections. It starts with the history of money, market structure, pips, lots and leverage, then moves to brokers, chart patterns, indicators, MetaTrader 4 and position sizing. There are no quizzes or exercises, so it is a watch-and-take-notes course. About 80,000 students have enrolled.

Reviewers keep saying the same thing: it is clear, plain and easy to follow, and Hassan comes across as a good teacher. Several call it a fit for people who know nothing about trading. The complaints are small. One reviewer finds the delivery a bit like a classroom and wants more energy. Others report videos freezing or stopping in the last few seconds, and one is annoyed about not being able to watch offline. One more says it only helps true beginners.

Technical analysis gets about 50 minutes and fundamental analysis under 10, so this is a foundation, not a deep strategy course. The live trading section runs 82 minutes and psychology gets 91, a generous share for a short course. It was last updated in October 2024. With a 4.6 rating across more than 21,000 reviews and only about 350 one and two star ratings, it is a low-risk way to learn the language before real money is involved. Plan on more study after.

Best forComplete beginners who want forex vocabulary, broker setup and chart basics explained plainly before risking money.
Skip it ifYou want a tested strategy or a deep technical analysis course, since indicators get under an hour.

Pros

  • Reviewers call the explanations plain, clear and easy for total beginners to follow
  • Covers broker choice, MetaTrader 4 and order types, so a student can open an account afterward
  • Includes 82 minutes of live trading and 91 minutes on trading psychology
  • Comes with an Excel sheet for position sizing and tracking trade history

Cons

  • No quizzes or exercises, and the 8.4 hours are all lecture
  • Delivery is formal, and one reviewer found it dry and short on energy
  • A few reviewers report videos freezing or stopping before the final seconds
Informative and easy to understand! best for clueless people interested in FX trading.
Tshepiso Fortunate Maluleka, a student

Billed for all levels, but reviewers say it suits true beginners best. There are no prerequisites.

I find the information interesting and I'm learning a lot. I also enjoy the instructor. He's a good teacher. I also like the format of the course itself.

By Sereda on 7/29/2026

Thanks, this course was well put together. I enjoyed each part of it. Easy to follow guidance here. I'll be taking your other Stock Trading & Forex courses too.

By MOUNGUE Prince BAHFOKUM on 6/19/2026

My life and trading experienced changed from the day i took this and learn how to apply some technical indicators. I had this appetite of copying signals from groups. It died immediately i learned how to study the market and take my shuts. The tutor is the best i have ever come across. I wish we had more than 5 stars ratings. I pray to be more discipline to complete the remaining 4.5 hours

By Tyreik Miller on 4/29/2026

I find the explanations of the different concepts to be very clear. From the history of money to where I am currently I have been able to follow what is being said.

By Olusegun on 4/22/2026

the course is quite great but why should i buy the course and cant watch it offline, it suddenly freezes sometimes while watching, i bought online and i still have to watch online with data, not fair please

By Udemy User on 4/17/2026

Before taking this course, I had zero trading knowledge and was completely overwhelmed. Mohsen the instructor’s step-by-step approach broke down complex market structures into easy-to-understand concepts. It gave me the confidence to start practicing safely."

By Faizal Ismail on 3/3/2026

I didn't know if I would learn anything but I can tell you for sure that it was the best decision I made. The lectures are very good, transmits good knowledge and Mr. Mohsen is incredibly good at explaining. I'm very happy that I got the chance to be part of this academy it is really helping me understand the market better and the strategy. After I finish this course I'll definitely buy more courses so I can go deeper in the Market Knowledge. I just also bought a Course for my wife and we really, really enjoy learning from Udemy. I will suggest to many other people to join also! Thank you very much again!
