In his BBC television TV show Million Dollar Traders former Goldman Sachs trader Lex van Dam trained a diverse group of eight people with no trading experience for two weeks, after which he handed them $1 million of his own money. They then traded his money for eight weeks, and ended up outperforming the professionals. This training program was the basis for 5-Step-Trading® Stocks.

Lex's new 5-Step-Trading® FX online course uses his trademarked 5-Step method to teach you everything you need to know about trading currencies. When you buy a currency you back a country and its economy and when you sell a currency you are doing the opposite. Clearly it is essential to try and understand what it is that makes countries and economies successful.

“Personally I am a big fan of trading currencies, because essentially any economic or geopolitical development will have some sort of impact on the FX market. I read newspapers and watch the news on TV out of general interest anyway and currency trading is a relatively easy way for me to translate my opinions into actual trading positions.” Lex van Dam.

This course is suitable for beginners and for more advanced traders who want to be able to build a diversified portfolio of currencies.

Lex van Dam is regulated by the FCA and the Academy adheres to the highest professional and ethical standards.

Why take this course?

Lex van Dam is one of the leading financial educators in the world.

The strength of the 5-Step-Trading® FX online course is that, unlike many other courses, you will not be taught to trade an idea that might well be pretty similar to what a number of other traders are considering at the same time. This is because the 5-Step process will force you to go through several steps before you actually pull the trigger.

Another strength is that we explicitly look at how different individual trades fit within a larger portfolio. The aim is to build a diversified portfolio of trades based on a variety of different ideas that are uncorrelated with each other, so that when one trade has a bad day another trade might actually make some money. Hopefully this will be your edge – and an edge is what you need when you want to become a profitable FX trader.

Our main ethos is to help Main Street understand the methods of Wall Street. If you want to learn more about trading and investing in currencies from an unbiased source this course is right for you.
