Polelo Trading Academy is a structured programme in market understanding, risk management and trading discipline — built for people who are prepared to study, practise and be held to a process.
You won't be handed entries to copy. You'll be taught to read a market, size a position, follow a plan and review your own performance honestly — the things that actually separate consistent traders from gamblers.
Structure, trend, ranges and liquidity — how price actually moves, taught from the ground up with no jargon left unexplained.
Position sizing, exposure and drawdown control. This comes before strategy, because surviving losing runs is the whole game.
One documented plan you can run, measure and improve — instead of a new strategy every time the last one has a bad week.
Managing fear, impatience and the urge to revenge trade. Rules only work if you can actually follow them under pressure.
Every member gets our trading journal platform. Log trades, track statistics and let the data tell you what to fix.
Live sessions, trade reviews and a community of people doing the same work — so you're not guessing alone.
We don't just open the doors and hand out logins. Every applicant goes through a short interview so we understand where you are, what you're working towards and whether you're genuinely prepared to put the hours in.
If you want signals to copy or a quick way to make money, we're the wrong academy — and we'd rather tell you that now than take your money.
Six steps, no surprises. Online self-checkout is coming soon — for now payment is by bank transfer, verified by a person.
Pick the period that suits you — monthly, quarterly, annual or two years.
Tell us about your trading journey, what you're struggling with and what you want from the academy.
If you're accepted, we send your payment instructions. If not, we'll tell you honestly why.
Full banking details are provided on acceptance. Nothing is charged before you're accepted.
Upload your POP through your account so we can match it to your application.
We verify the payment manually and switch on your academy access for the period you paid for.
Four stages. You always know what you're working on and what comes next.
Markets, platforms, charts and the vocabulary — starting from zero knowledge.
Market structure, liquidity and your first documented, repeatable setups.
Smart-money concepts, refined execution, and disciplined risk under live conditions.
Preparing for prop-firm evaluations and managing capital to a firm's rules.
Some introductory material is available free — see Resources.
Every period gives the same full access — the longer the commitment, the lower the effective monthly cost.
No. The beginner path assumes zero knowledge. What we do need is that you are willing to study and practise consistently — that matters far more than where you are starting.
We cannot promise that, and anyone who does is lying to you. Trading carries real risk and most people who try it lose money. What we can do is teach you a process, a risk framework and the discipline to follow both.
Because the programme only works for people who actually run it. The interview helps us understand your situation and set honest expectations before anyone pays anything.
By bank or wire transfer, after you have been accepted. You then submit your proof of payment and we verify it manually. Online self-checkout is coming soon.
No. There is no free trial or trial account. We do publish selected free educational material in our Resources library.
Yes — that is who most of our members are. Lessons are self-paced and on demand, so you work through them in the evenings or on weekends.
Applications take about five minutes. Tell us where you are in your trading, and we'll tell you honestly whether the academy is the right fit.
