The lessons, in order

A path is the academy's answer to "where do I start". The order is deliberate: each lesson assumes the ones above it, which is why reading them this way works better than picking at a category list. In the app the path tracks how far through you are and what comes next.

What it draws on

This path pulls from 3 categories: technical analysis, forex basics, chart patterns. Each of those pages lists its full set of lessons if you would rather go deep on one subject than move across several.
