Trend following and mean reversion are opposites: one needs price to keep going, the other needs it to come back. Running both without knowing which regime you are in guarantees that one of them is losing at all times.

These lessons cover each approach, the conditions it needs, and how to tell what is in front of you before committing.

FAQ

Trading strategies: questions

How many trading strategies lessons are there?
24, and they are all in the MarketPro app. This page lists every one of them. Each lesson takes about 1 minutes to read.
Do I have to pay to read them?
No. The academy is free on every MarketPro account, including free ones, with no lesson cap and no paywall inside the app. On this website the first part of each lesson is open and the rest is in the app, which is where the quizzes and the progress tracking are.
Do I need a broker account to start?
No. The academy, the calculators on this site and the free weekly signals all work without one. A broker account is only needed when you decide to place a real trade, and that decision is yours alone.
