Candlecademy teaches the fundamentals of real skills used by traders every day. It is built for people just starting out and scales to in-depth masterclasses on trading strategies. Most trading guides, courses, coaches and programs ultimately aim to sell trade signals, a subscription to a trading portfolio, or access to a trading platform. Candlecademy is purely educational. It exists to teach technical analysis β€” the methods traders worldwide use to read a stock chart and decide when to enter and exit trades. The curriculum begins with the basics of trading and continues through in-depth courses on indicators, well-known strategies, risk management and mindset. Lessons are easy to digest and can be completed at your own pace. What’s in Candlecademy A structured course from β€œWhat is a stock?” through to reading real entry timing The Trade Lab β€” endless generated practice charts that become more difficult as you improve The Daily β€” one shared chart for everyone each day, so you can compare your results with others Playbooks β€” complete strategies assembled from course content and established methods A review deck that keeps the core concepts in regular practice Badges, levels, streaks and milestone certificates as you progress The app is free to use. There is no brokerage. Nothing here is financial or investment advice. Charts are generated for practice only and do not use real market data. Educational use only.
