How a lesson works

Ten minutes, and you have to answer.

Reading about risk feels like learning it. Working out your own position size is what actually makes it stick.

  1. 01

    Taught with the chart in front of you

    Short teaching cards, worked examples and real chart figures. When an idea is abstract, an everyday analogy comes with it.

  2. 02

    You answer, you do not skim

    642 graded questions in eight formats, from calculations and matching to tapping the right spot on a chart. The reason arrives straight after every answer.

  3. 03

    Mistakes cost a heart, not money

    Three hearts a lesson and a hint after a wrong answer. Run out and the lesson starts again, which is a far cheaper place to get it wrong than a live account.

  4. 04

    Progress you can see

    XP, levels, streaks and achievements you can share. Your path starts with whatever you told us you want to learn first.

When someone says they are risking one percent, what are they describing?

03
Learn it, then see it

Every course ends on a real market.

The Academy sits inside the same app that writes Systemly signals. Each signal shows where to enter, where the trade is wrong and why, so the idea you just passed turns up on a live chart the same day.

Finish a course, get two signals on us

Complete a course and two extra signals land on top of your plan, for each of your first three courses. They count in the month you earn them.

How we teach

Honest about what a chart can prove.

Risk before entries

You learn what a trade is allowed to cost before you learn where to enter one. The Academy teaches half a percent to one percent of your account per trade.

Contested ideas are labelled

Where a technique is disputed, the lesson says so. ICT concepts are taught as ideas some traders use, not as laws of the market.

Figures, not adjectives

What ten losses in a row actually cost at one percent and at three. How much lag a moving average adds. How often triangles break the wrong way.

No promises about profit

Nothing here says a pattern will make you money. You learn to measure, record and review, so your own results can tell you.

FAQs

Systemly Academy is an interactive forex and gold trading course built into the Systemly app. It has 123 lessons across 32 courses, each one a short run of teaching cards and graded questions, covering everything from how a currency pair works to risk management, chart patterns and ICT concepts.

Partly. 40 lessons are free on the Free plan, with no card and no trial clock: 7 complete courses plus the first lesson of every other Fundamentals course. The Starter plan, £9.99 a month, opens all 123. Plus and Pro include the whole Academy as well.

13 chapters in two strands. Fundamentals covers what the forex market is, the language of a trade, risk per trade, trading psychology, interest rates and the economic calendar, support and resistance, moving averages, trend lines, candlesticks, chart patterns, Fibonacci, a pre-trade checklist and journalling. ICT and Smart Money covers market structure, liquidity, fair value gaps, order blocks, kill zones, daily bias and entry models.

Yes. Chapter one assumes you know nothing, and starts with what you are actually buying when you trade a currency pair. Technical terms link to a plain-English glossary of 69 entries. If you already trade, you can open any course directly.

The lessons add up to 11h 52m. Most take between five and eleven minutes, so one a day gets you through the Fundamentals strand in about three months. There is no deadline and nothing expires.

Yes, in eight courses covering structure, liquidity, fair value gaps, order and breaker blocks, kill zones, daily bias, the power of three and entry models such as the optimal trade entry. Each is taught with what the source claims and where those claims are contested, so you can judge them for yourself.

No course can promise that, and this one does not. It teaches you to size positions, survive losing runs, read a chart honestly and review your own trades, which are the habits the accounts that last have in common. Trading carries a real risk of losing money.

They live in the same app. After a lesson you can ask for a signal on a real market and see the idea applied, with the entry, the stop and the reasoning written out. Finishing a course also adds two extra signals to your month, for each of your first three courses.

Yes. The Academy runs in your browser on a phone, tablet or computer, and your progress, streak and XP follow you between them.

No. The Academy gives you XP, levels, streaks and achievements you can share, but not a certificate or qualification. It is built to change how you trade, not to sit on a CV.
