Free trading lessons and videos

Everything on this page is public, costs nothing and asks for no email address. Start with the candles, because you cannot read a zone until you can read what is inside it; the videos above them are the method itself, in the order I would watch them.


01 / The lessons

Supply and demand, taught in the open

Six videos, longest first, that carry the method on this site without asking for anything. Each one opens on YouTube in a new tab; nothing is embedded here and nothing on this page loads from anyone else’s server. The written version of what they teach is the method page, and the grade they keep mentioning is explained on the Zone Score page.

My System Scores Every Zone 0-7. Below 3.5 I Don't Get a Vote. — Thirteen minutes of a New York morning, eight futures markets open at once, with the indicator grading every zone as it draws it. Where the number comes from is not explained; what it does on a live chart is.

02 / The course

The candlestick course

Six episodes published

A course in candlestick reading, narrated in English, shot as full-screen diagrams rather than a talking head. It is built from my own teaching deck and it is free on YouTube — no sign-up, no upsell at the end of it, nothing behind a wall.

The reason it exists is that almost every candlestick lesson in circulation was written for spot foreign exchange, and a Nasdaq-100 futures chart does not behave like a currency pair. A formation that means something on one instrument can be noise on the other, so the course measures every pattern against the instrument’s own recent range instead of a distance borrowed from somebody else’s chart. That is the only part of this subject where I think there is anything left to say.

It is for a trader who already knows what a candle is and keeps getting caught by the ones that look decisive and are not.

CANDLESTICK — The Free Course, in order, on YouTube.

The same course is also written out, lesson by lesson, with the diagrams on the page and nothing to play. Same material. The written one can be corrected in place when it needs correcting, which a video cannot.


03 / The Shorts

Under two minutes each

Three vertical videos that show one thing each. They are the fastest way to see what a graded zone looks like on a chart before reading a word about it.

4 Markets. One Map. — Supply & Demand Zones This Week
Four markets, one map: the zones being watched that week on bitcoin, gold, Nvidia and XRP, each with its grade. 1 minute · 2 August 2026

The daily two-minute market prep is not on this page: it lives on the podcast page, one episode per session it runs.


04 / The companion

The Candlestick Code cheat sheet

Five printable pages that go with the course: the candles that mean doubt, the six formations that survived the cut, the protocol for entry, stop and target, and the swing definition everything else hangs off. It is the sheet I would want next to the chart the first month I was learning this.

It is free. It arrives by email because that is the only way I can send you a file.

05 / After the videos

Where to go from here

The videos teach the reading. The method page shows how a zone gets drawn and marked before price returns to it, and the checklist is the two pages you keep next to your own chart and grade a zone with in about ten seconds.

If you would rather just watch what I do each morning, the market prep episode is the shortest version of it.

If the obstacle is the platform rather than the reading — if you have installed MetaTrader 5, gone looking for NQ and found that the chart will not open — that has its own guide: how to trade NQ on MetaTrader 5, written from the specification window of an account that trades the real CME contract.

Everything above is free and stays free. If you would rather have the method in order than in pieces, how I learned to grade a zone in the first place is the paid course.
