Start here

The whole thing,
start to finish.

You gave me your email, so I'm not going to waste it. This is every step, in order, with nothing skipped and nothing dressed up. Read it once. You'll understand more than most people who've been at this a year.

Step one — open your free account

This is where the trades actually live. It's free, it takes a few minutes, and opening it is not the same as putting money in — you can leave it empty as long as you want.

This is Steve's link, and the broker pays him and his partners a commission when you trade. It costs you nothing extra — you should just know it before you click, not after.

Before anything else — how I get paid

If you open an account through my link, the broker pays me and my partners a commission on the trades you make. I get half of that. It costs you nothing extra, but you deserve to know it before you click anything, not after.

That's also why I'm about to spend this whole page telling you to slow down — because I'd rather have you here in a year than have you quit in a month.

Get in the room. It's free and it takes one tap.

This is the part I actually care about. The room is where you ask the questions you don't want to ask in public — an Kreyòl oswa an Anglè, whichever you're comfortable in. Nobody in there is a pro. That's the point.

It's on Telegram, so it lives on your phone and it doesn't eat your data.

Why this is first

Everything below this is something you read alone. This is the only step where somebody answers you back. People who do this one stick around; people who skip it quietly disappear in about three weeks.

Watch the board before you spend a dollar

The board is a live list of trades our system flagged, with a grade on each one, and what actually happened after — wins and losses both. It's free and it's open right now. No account, no card.

Open it. Don't do anything. Just check it for a few days and see whether it's right.

Why this is step one

Anybody can show you a winning screenshot. Almost nobody shows you the losers next to them. If the board can't earn your trust for free, it doesn't deserve your money.

Learn what the grades mean

Every trade on the board gets a grade. Here's the honest version of what they mean:

A
Everything lined upThe strongest setups the system finds. Still lose sometimes. Anyone who tells you otherwise is selling something.
B
Most things lined upDecent, not perfect. Worth watching to learn the pattern, not worth betting your rent on.
C
WeakShown so you can see what a bad setup looks like. That's the whole point of it being there.
Do this before money

Pick one pair. Follow it on the board for a week without trading it. If you can guess the grade before you see it, you've learned something real.

Get the risk tool. Seriously, this one.

It's free and it does one thing: it stops you turning one bad day into a blown account. Most people who quit trading don't quit because they were wrong. They quit because they were wrong once with too much money on it.

Why now and not later

Get this before you fund anything. After you've lost money is the worst possible time to start learning about risk.

When you're ready — open the account

Genesis is the broker we use. Opening an account is free and takes a few minutes. Opening it does not mean funding it. You can open it, look around, and leave it empty as long as you want.

Do it through this link so it's tied to our room and you get the room's support:

What to expect

They'll ask for ID — that's normal and it's the law for any real broker. If a broker never asks who you are, that's the one you should worry about. Every step is on video if you'd rather watch than read.

Fund it with money you can lose. I mean that literally.

Not "money you'd rather not lose." Money that, if it went to zero tomorrow, changes nothing about your life. Not rent. Not the car note. Not borrowed.

For most people starting out that's small, and small is fine. You're buying lessons right now, not income.

The number nobody gives you

Across the accounts we've referred, the average person puts in about $118. That's the real number. If someone's telling you that you need thousands to start, they're not telling you the truth.

Connect the board and learn to read it live

Once you're funded, log into the app and you'll see the same board, plus your own account next to it. Watch how a setup forms, where the stop goes, and why it gets graded the way it does.

Open the app →
Take your time here

There's no prize for rushing. The people who last are the ones who watched for weeks first — that's not the slow way, that's the only way that's worked so far.

About letting the system trade for you

The app can place trades on your account automatically. Before you ever switch that on, here is the truth as we measure it:

Over the trades we've tracked so far, the automated results have been negative. Not "slightly under" — negative. We publish it because you can't make a real decision on a number you've never been shown.

So it's off by default, and I'm not going to be the guy who talks you into flipping it on. Learn to read the board first. If and when that changes and the numbers turn positive, you'll see it on the board like everyone else — because the board shows losses too.

The part I'm not allowed to soften, and wouldn't

Trading loses money for most people who try it. That's not a disclaimer, it's the base rate. Leverage means you can lose faster than you expect.

I'm not a licensed advisor and I'm not a professional trader. I'm learning this in public, on stream, and you can watch me get it wrong. Nothing here is advice about what you should buy.

Never fund an account with money you need. If reading this made you want to slow down — good. That was the point.
