Personal support
Individual guidance, as included in your program.
Student success is not a guarantee of trading returns. Trading involves risk.
Why CTF
An independent approach to reading markets.
Understand price behaviour, identify market structure and learn to manage risk — without relying on signals or chasing every move.
CTF combines a structured curriculum with practical chart discussions and personal guidance. The aim is not another set of predictions; it is a repeatable way to examine a chart and explain your decisions.
Study at your own pace. When mentor sessions are included, bring your questions and work through them on live markets.
“The goal is not a prediction. It is a process you can explain.”
Manage risk
Learn position sizing, leverage and margin, then connect them to a repeatable trading plan.
Review decisions
Use practical chart examples and mentor conversations to examine your thinking, not just outcomes.

Experience
What learning looks like.
Recorded lessons for the foundations, practical examples for context, and mentor time where your program includes it.
Structured video learning
Every module includes recorded video lessons. Work through them at your own pace, starting with the foundational modules and moving into practical chart examples as your program allows.
Personal mentor guidance
Scheduled sessions focus on your background, your questions and the charts in front of you — not a one-size-fits-all classroom lecture.
Practical chart examples
Learn to explain what you see before deciding what to do. Structure, levels and risk are studied through examples rather than signals.
