FAQ
Honest answers to fair questions.
What people ask us most before starting.
Does trading guarantee profits?
No. Trading carries a risk of capital loss and no content from this academy guarantees profitability. Most retail traders lose money. What we do give you is process, structured education and honest feedback. Our content is educational, not financial advice.
Do I need prior experience?
No. We start from the fundamentals: market structure, risk management and position sizing before anything else. Many members arrive with zero experience — in fact, it's easier to build good habits from scratch than to unlearn bad ones.
What markets do you trade?
The methodology is built on pure price action with ICT concepts, applied primarily to futures. The concepts apply broadly, but the live sessions focus on the instruments the mentors trade daily.
Do you work with funded accounts or personal capital?
Both. The community includes people trading funded accounts (prop firms) and people trading their own capital. The risk management we teach applies to both, and several students have passed their funding evaluations using these same rules.
Do you provide signals?
We don't sell a signals service and we don't do copy trading. In the Live Trading sessions we trade in real time: if there's a setup we take it, we explain why as it happens, and you watch it unfold. Some people will choose to copy those entries, but that isn't what's being sold or the point — what's taught is how to read the market and decide for yourself, so you don't depend on someone telling you when to buy.
What does each level include?
Community (free): public Discord channel. Live Trading Basic ($50/mo): group live trading 2 days/week. Live Trading Premium ($109/mo): group live trading 5 days/week, live Q&A and a 3-day free trial. Private mentorship ($3,000): a separate programme, not a Live Trading upgrade — 7 months of personalized mentorship with 2 classes a week of 40 to 60 minutes, and once you finish, Live Trading included until the 8 months are complete. You don't join the group sessions during the mentorship. Finish early and the mentor sees you're ready, and Live Trading covers whatever time is left: five months means three of Live Trading, not one.
How do I get Discord access after paying?
During checkout we'll ask for your Discord username. After completing the payment you'll see instructions on the thank-you page and the team will grant your access manually.
Can I cancel my subscription?
Yes. Monthly subscription levels can be cancelled anytime directly from your Stripe portal — no hoops, no retention emails.
Do you have a refund policy?
[EDITABLE ZONE — legal text pending client approval] The refund policy will be provided and approved by HED Trading Academy.
