OVERVIEW

What You’ll Learn in the Forex Masterclass with Alistair Crooks and Charlie Burton


This free masterclass is a complete forex trading education from two FCA-authorised money managers, Alistair Crooks and Charlie Burton. It starts with how the forex market actually works, why $6.6 trillion in daily volume creates the tightest spreads and lowest barriers to entry of any market, and builds through currency pairs, the three major sessions (Asian, London, New York), and what actually drives prices from central bank policy down to retail sentiment. The technical analysis section covers candlestick patterns, support and resistance, trend structure, chart patterns, moving averages, and multiple timeframe confluence, so you leave with the reading skills every forex trader needs before they place a single order.


From there the masterclass shifts into strategy and execution. You’ll learn how to choose a trading style that actually fits your life (scalping, day trading, swing trading, or position trading), how to build a rules-based edge you can measure, how to size every position using a fixed percentage risk per trade and proper lot calculation, and how to journal every trade across pre-trade, during-trade, and post-trade phases to create a feedback loop that compounds your skill alongside your capital. The whole system is built on one idea: trading is a measurable process, and the traders who last are the ones who treat it that way.

‍

What is forex trading and how does it work?

Forex (foreign exchange) is the market for trading currencies in pairs like EUR/USD and GBP/USD. Prices move when one currency strengthens or weakens against the other, driven by interest rates, central bank policy, economic data, and sentiment. It’s the largest market in the world at roughly $6.6 trillion in daily volume, trading 24 hours a day Monday through Friday.

‍

How much money do I need to start trading forex?

Forex has one of the lowest capital requirements of any market thanks to leverage and small lot sizes. The masterclass covers how to calculate position sizes based on your account size and risk per trade, so you can start with a small account and scale up as your strategy proves itself. Risk management, not account size, is what decides whether you survive.

‍

What is the best time to trade forex?

The three major sessions are Asian, London, and New York. The biggest moves of the day typically happen when the London and New York sessions overlap (roughly 8am to noon Eastern), which Lesson 2 breaks down in detail along with the asset pairs that are most active in each session.

‍

Is the Forex Masterclass free?

Yes. All five lessons are free to watch on Chart Academy.
