I’m new to trading. Will I be able to cope with the Active Trader Program?
Absolutely. Everyone has to start somewhere - and we’ve designed this program with that in mind. While the content is detailed, it’s written in a clear, step-by-step way where each lesson builds on the previous, so you can build confidence as you go.
Remember, our team is here to guide you every step of the way too, all you have to do is ask.
I’ve been trading for years. Will this be too basic for me?
Not necessarily. In fact, some of the traders who get the most from the Active Trader Program already have market experience behind them.
If you’re consistently identifying market turning points with precision, managing your risk well and achieving strong Reward-to-Risk returns, some of the foundational material may be familiar.
But experience doesn’t always equal consistency.
Over time, it’s easy to pick up habits, overcomplicate your trading or lose sight of the fundamentals that matter most. The Active Trader Program gives you a structured, time-tested approach to help refine your analysis, tighten your trade planning and bring greater discipline and consistency to the way you trade.
And it doesn’t stay at the basics for long. You’ll quickly move into more advanced techniques and real-market examples designed to sharpen how you identify opportunities, plan your trades, manage risk and execute with confidence.
Think of it less as starting again - and more as sharpening the skills you already have.
Please Note: You’ll need to complete the Active Trader Program before moving into our advanced courses - just as W.D. Gann began his books with price-based lessons, we start with the price foundations first. It’s the essential groundwork before advancing to higher-level study.
How Much Time Do I Need to Allow Each Week?
The Active Trader Program is designed to be self-paced, so you can work through the training around your existing work, family and lifestyle commitments.
As a guide, if you spent an hour per day working through the course material, we recommend allowing around six months to complete the full learning journey.
For the first 12 weeks, you’ll work through the initial training, workshops and online training at your own pace, building your knowledge and putting the key concepts into practice.
From there, you’ll move into three months of coaching, where you can continue developing your skills with the support of our Trading Coaches and fellow students through the Student Forum.
There’s no need to rush through it. In fact, we’d rather you take the time to understand the concepts, practise them and learn how to apply them confidently before moving on. As everyone progresses differently, the time line is flexible so if you need more time or feel ready to begin coaching sooner, simply reach out to our team.
The goal isn’t to finish quickly. It’s to build skills you can use for years to come.
How Much Money Do I Need to Start Trading?
There’s no set amount you need to start trading, and how much you choose to fund your trading account with is entirely up to you.
As a general guide, we often suggest around $5,000 as a sensible starting point once you’re ready to begin trading with real money.
Why? Because when you’re starting out, the goal isn’t to make a million dollars on day one. It’s to learn how to trade well.
You’re developing your skills, learning how to apply the techniques, manage risk, follow your trading plan and make good decisions when real money is on the line.
Starting with a more modest account can give you the opportunity to gain that real-world experience without putting a much larger amount of capital at risk while you’re still learning.
If you want to start with less than $5,000, that’s okay. If you’re comfortable starting with more, that’s your choice too.
But whether you have $5,000 or $50,000 available, the skills come first. Learn the lessons, build your confidence and consistency then you can decide what comes next.
One of the great things about the techniques you’ll learn in the Active Trader Program is that they’re not limited to one particular market.
The principles of price movement, trend, support and resistance, risk management and trade planning can be applied across a wide range of markets, including:
Australian and international shares • Indices • Forex • Commodities • Futures • CFDs
Throughout the program, you’ll see the techniques applied to different markets and real trading examples, helping you understand how the same core principles can be used wherever opportunities arise.
You don’t need to trade them all - and we certainly wouldn’t suggest trying to!
The aim is to give you the skills to find and assess opportunities, then choose the markets that best suit your trading style, available capital and lifestyle.
You’re definitely not alone.
Many students come to the Active Trader Program after trying trading before - often following tips, jumping between strategies or simply never having a clear process to follow.
Previous results don’t necessarily tell you what you’re capable of. But they can tell you that something needs to change.
The Active Trader Program is designed to take you back to a structured approach - teaching you how to analyse the market, identify an opportunity, plan the trade, manage your risk and know what you’re going to do before your money is on the line.
And this time, you’re not left to figure it all out on your own. You’ll have structured training, real-market examples, coaching and ongoing support to help you put the lessons into practice.
There are no guarantees in trading - if what you’ve tried before hasn’t worked, learning a different approach may be exactly the place to start.
What Trading Platform or Broker Do I Need?
You’re free to choose the trading platform and broker that best suits your individual needs.
Safety in the Market does not require you to trade through a particular broker or platform. The choice of broker is entirely your own and independent of your training with us.
For charting and market analysis, our training can be applied using commonly available charting platforms, and we’ll show you what you need to be able to analyse and plan your trades effectively.
The important thing is that you’re learning a process that isn’t dependent on one particular broker or platform - so the skills you develop can be applied across different markets and trading environments.
Does my location matter?
Not at all! We have students all over the world. As long as you’ve got a computer or laptop and internet access, you’re good to go.
All of our live coaching sessions and student Q&As are recorded - so you can join us live or catch up later with the replay, usually available within 24 hours.
No matter where you are, you’ll stay connected, supported, and up to speed.
Is there a money back guarantee?
We want you to feel confident that the Active Trader Program is the right fit for you. That’s why your enrolment is backed by our 14-Day Peace of Mind Guarantee.
From the day you enrol, you’ll have 14 days to explore the training, work through the lessons and get a genuine feel for the program and the way we teach.
If during that time you decide the Active Trader Program isn’t right for you, simply let us know and we’ll arrange a full refund*.
No pressure. No hassle. Just 14 days to experience the program for yourself and decide.
Of course, while we can stand behind the quality of our training and support, we can’t guarantee individual trading results - those will always depend on how you apply what you learn.
*Any physical course materials supplied as part of your enrolment must be returned in saleable condition, at the student’s expense, to be eligible for a refund.
