Fugu Forex · Flagship course
Forex Trading Masterclass
One full day, seven modules, and a licensed-chef approach to leverage. You leave with a written strategy, a sizing framework and the discipline to keep an account alive long enough for an edge to show up.
Course overview
The foreign exchange market turns over trillions of dollars a day and is open to anyone with a phone. That accessibility is exactly the problem: most new traders are handed institutional-grade leverage with no institutional-grade training behind it.
This masterclass closes that gap. It starts with how the market is actually structured and who you are trading against, moves through the technical and fundamental toolkit that professionals genuinely use, and spends a disproportionate amount of time on the part that decides whether you survive: risk.
The final module opens up how a real, ranked algorithmic strategy is built, tested and validated — drawing directly on the development of the FuguScalper suite, TwistSTM3 and FuguSTMGold.
Expert Advisor source code
Delegates receive access to the source code and strategy IP behind selected Fugu Expert Advisors. You see exactly how the logic is structured, how entries and exits are defined, and how risk is enforced in code rather than left to discretion.
This is not a black-box signal service. It is a working reference implementation you can study, modify and use as a starting point for your own automated ideas.
Broker insider knowledge
Learn how brokers actually make money from your trades — A-book, B-book, hybrid desks, spread mark-ups, swaps and slippage. The instructor brings 20 years of dealing with retail and institutional desks, so you understand the business model behind the price you see.
You will leave knowing how to choose a broker that fits your strategy, how to spot the hidden costs that destroy edges, and how to avoid being the product the broker is selling.
