Why is this training needed?
Training helps you make trading decisions deliberately rather than at random. Understanding how the market works protects you from basic mistakes when sizing positions.
Note that clients on the higher account types (Bronze, Silver, Gold) get more than the theory: weekly webinars, one-to-one sessions with market analysts, daily market signals and In-Depth Research.
Put the theory to work on a demo account
The same quotes and the same interface as a live account.
