Our comprehensive 8-part E-mini course, Modules 1–8.

🧱  Tips for Section 1

  • Section 1 is 8 modules, 56 lessons, in order. Finish Module 1 before Module 5, and Module 5 before Module 6.
  • Each lesson has a key idea, how it works, an example, a common confusion, a checkpoint and a takeaway.
  • Each module ends with a short quiz (suggested passing score 80%, retakes allowed).
  • All charts use synthetic bars. They illustrate ideas, not real trades or results.

🗺️  The Basics Course Map

Module Title In one line
1 Futures Basics The vehicle: what you trade, how big it is, when it trades, and what margin really is.
2 Market Structure The map: the market as an auction, trend vs range, swing structure, zones and flow.
3 The Chart Toolkit The instruments: candles in context, volume, VWAP, key levels, timeframes and a tiny indicator list.
4 Core Setups The playbook: four if/then setups, each with a named invalidation, plus “no trade.”
5 Risk and Trade Management Risk first: size from the stop, measure in R, manage by rule, and stop for the day.
6 The Trading Plan One printable page that bosses you around: entries, exits, red lights, session template.
7 Execution and Psychology Make the plan survive your brain: prep, journal, tilt breakers, process goals.
8 Live Practice Path From sim to small live: real rules, process gates, 1 /MES, slow scaling, a 30-day plan.
