48 lessons by Marc Albrecht Trading, practice on demo accounts, a journal that reads your trades and a path that moves on measured skills - risk, planning, execution - not on videos watched.
225,367 words in 48 lessons, counted from the lesson files. Module 1 is free to read.
Reading is where it starts. The value is in practice on your own record: every part below says what it measures.
Connect a demo or live MetaTrader account, or log trades by hand. The journal finds the mistakes you actually make - missing stops, oversized risk, trading into releases, revenge trades - and turns each into the lessons and drills that fix it.
Measured byRule adherence, risk per trade and repeat mistakes per 20 trades, week by week.
OpenEvery high-impact release MAT+ records - CPI, NFP, central banks - with the numbers, the measured move of each instrument after 1 minute, 1 hour and 1 day, and what a written plan would have done.
Measured byTaken from MAT+ Terminal data (term_events, term_reactions); each case shows its source and time.
OpenPast releases replayed bar by bar from stored prices: decide before the reveal, then get scored against the rules - stop placed, risk sized, no entry into the release candle.
Measured byReplay rule score over your last 50 decisions; drills on spaced repetition.
OpenEvery week the journal is read for you: numbers calculated first (expectancy, drawdown, costs, streaks), then plain-language notes on what to work on next.
Measured byNumbers from calculations only; notes cite the trades they come from.
OpenSix skill gates from protecting the account to consistent execution on demo. Each gate opens on your record - journaled trades, replay scores, a tested plan - not on videos watched.
Measured byGate criteria are published per stage; the record behind a pass is kept.
OpenThe risk and psychology lessons come back when your journal shows the behaviour they address: size creep after losses, stops moved, trading outside your plan.
Measured byBehaviour flags before and after the lesson, on your own trades.
OpenThe Masterclass channel in the MAT+ community: weekly case-study threads, questions on lessons, journal reviews with other members.
Measured byChannel activity is shown live from MAT+.
OpenDiscipline, rule adherence, expectancy and drawdown on demo, charted over time - the numbers the course is judged on.
Measured byYour dashboard; the same numbers feed which lessons we improve.
OpenEvery lesson was reviewed for what it teaches and whether it can be measured. 25 lessons teach skills that are arithmetic or measured process - risk, sizing, planning, journaling, execution, reviews, news reactions - and they now come first. Where a lesson teaches an entry method, we coded its rules and ran them on two years of MAT+ prices with costs.
What did not hold up is marked "Test it yourself" in the lesson, with the numbers - the course teaches you to check a method before trusting it, and it starts with its own.
| Method as coded | Trades | After costs | Before costs |
|---|---|---|---|
| Strategy 1, trend continuation (4.2) | 134 | -0.55 R | -0.28 R |
| Strategy 2, reversal at key level (5.2) | 66 | +0.28 R | +0.30 R |
| Candle patterns as signals (2.1) | 4,130 | -0.26 R | -0.09 R |
| Patterns at a level, with trend (2.2) | 367 | -0.25 R | -0.09 R |
| Coin-flip entries, same bracket | 2,923 | -0.06 R | +0.05 R |
Out-of-sample half (last 40 %) of MAT+ 1-hour bars, 8 symbols, 2024-09-17 to 2026-09-25; expectancy per trade in R (risk units); nothing fitted. Rules as coded: content/evidence/method-check.json. Past data describes the past; it is not a forecast.
The same sign-in works on every MAT platform. Lessons link straight into the tool they teach.
Lesson 1.4, risk management, is free - and it is stage 1 of the path.
