All students are expected to be familiar with the materials by the start of the course.
Week 1: Theory & Practical Learning Day 1 - 2
On day one you will begin the online ‘Intensive Strategy Course’, covering our bespoke trading strategies, advanced technical analysis and risk management. You’ll learn how to identify some advanced technical patterns and how they can be used to create short and medium-term trading strategies. Furthermore, we will use examples to show how macroeconomic news releases can impact FX prices and what type of news could move markets when trading. You will also cover risk management techniques, pips and how to assess performance.
Day 3 - 5
On day three you will begin to put what you have learned into action on your demo account. The application of the prior learning and theory is the most important step. You will have to quickly learn to navigate the brokerage and trading platform. Begin to analyse markets and react to macroeconomic data. Start to formulate trading strategies using fundamental data or news, technical analysis and indicators or quantitative methods. You must maintain Alphachain Capital’s risk management rules.

Week 2: Strategy Planning & Testing Week 2
During this week you will look to gain as much exposure by trading your strategies and doing back-tests to build statistical research on how well your strategy has worked in previous market conditions. This is an important period where you can learn to improve your trading and risk management techniques while learning more about your psychological approach to trading. We will carry out a trading comp assessment which will be based on how you perform as an individual as well as how you manage yourself in a team environment. Finally, you will create a trading plan and have it reviewed by our senior trader mentors.
Week 3 & 4: Further testing and Assessment Period Week 3 - 4 Weeks 3-4 will be for further testing a assessment. Here we will assess you on your trading performance on the demo account putting into practice everything that was taught the previous weeks. You will follow your trading plan and maintain good risk management and psychology in the markets. At the end of the final week you will have a performance appraisal with a senior trader and mentor where you will submit your statistics. You will be provided with feedback and you will then be allocated your funded trading account to begin your role as a Remote Junior Prop Trader. You will have regular 1-2-1 mentoring sessions every fortnight to continually improve and develop you as a trader while managing our capital. Capital increases will be provided once set profit targets are achieved.
