Core offering

Forex School Online is an online forex trading education platform that teaches retail traders a price action trading methodology through a free 10-part beginner course, an advanced paid Price Action Trading Course (three sub-courses, 30+ videos, students forum, weekly live summaries), and supporting tools such as a Position Size Calculator, MT4/MT5 custom indicators, and a Breakeven Trade Management Expert Advisor. It monetizes primarily via affiliate commissions from recommended brokers rather than direct course fees.

Product overview

Forex School Online is an online forex trading education platform offering a structured curriculum centered around price action trading methodologies. The core offerings include a free beginner forex course and a paid advanced Price Action Trading Course (with 3 sub-courses covering strategies, advanced techniques, and trading psychology). The platform supplements its courses with free trading tools (Position Size Calculator, Forex Journal), broker comparison services by country and regulation, video content, and MT4/MT5 platform tutorials. Students gain access to a members-only forum and receive weekly live market summaries. The service operates as a community-driven educational platform rather than a software-as-a-service product.
