What We Teach

Real Education.
Real Structure.

Every lesson is built around one goal — helping you understand how to trade futures with confidence, consistency, and a process you can actually follow.

📚
Futures Foundations

New to futures? We start at the beginning. How futures contracts work, what ES means, how the market opens, and what you need to get started the right way.

01
📈
One Setup. One Market.

We trade ES futures using one clear framework. No indicator overload. No strategy hopping. Deep mastery of a single repeatable approach that beginners can actually follow.

02
📡
Live Trading Room

Mon–Fri 9:30–11:00 AM ET. Watch real trades executed in real time with full narration. Every decision explained so you learn the thinking — not just the outcome.

03
🛡️
Risk Management

Understanding how to protect your account is the most important skill in trading. We teach position sizing, loss limits, and the discipline habits that keep you in the game.

04
📓
Trade Journaling

You cannot improve what you do not track. We walk you through building a journaling habit that reveals patterns in your trading — both the good ones and the ones to fix.

05
Morning Briefings

Every session opens with a structured pre-market briefing. Key levels, today's bias, and a complete game plan — built together before the market ever opens.

90-Day Mentorship

Personal Coaching.
Real Accountability.

A direct one-on-one relationship with a trader who has 3 years of profitable experience — reviewing your journal every week and telling you the truth.

Most education gives you information. What most traders actually need is someone looking at their specific situation — their specific mistakes — and helping them build habits that stick.

The 90-day mentorship is built around one outcome: by the end you will have a documented trading system, a personal framework, and the discipline to follow both independently.

01
Weeks 1–2 · Assessment

Onboarding and Foundation

60-minute onboarding call. We review your background, your current habits, and where you are starting from. You receive a personalized risk framework and begin with structured practice before any live trading.

02
Weeks 3–8 · Execution

Guided Live Trading

Weekly 45-minute Zoom calls every week. Your trade journal is reviewed every Friday with voice memo feedback sent within 24 hours. Structured session limits and clear daily targets keep progress measurable.

03
Weeks 9–12 · Independence

Building Self-Sufficiency

Bi-weekly calls. You present your own trade reviews — I ask questions rather than giving answers. We finish by building your personal trading plan document that goes with you beyond the 90 days.

What Our Community
Is Saying

★★★★★
"

I had watched hours of YouTube videos and still felt completely lost. The morning sessions here changed everything. Having a structure and a real plan before the open made trading feel manageable for the first time.

What I appreciated most was how patient and clear the teaching is. Nobody makes you feel bad for asking beginner questions. The community genuinely wants to see you improve — and that makes a real difference.

I came in knowing nothing about futures. The education library gave me a real foundation, and watching the live sessions helped me connect what I was reading to what actually happens in the market. This is the best investment I have made in my trading.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked
Questions

Everything you need to know before joining. Don't see your question? Email info@candlesticksandcoffee.com

Do I need any trading experience to join?+

None at all. The course and community are designed specifically for people who are new to futures trading. We start with the basics — what futures are, how the ES market works, and what you need to get started. The live sessions include full narration so you always understand what is happening and why.

What is the difference between the course and the community?+

The $97 course is a self-paced education program covering futures foundations, the trading framework, risk management, and how to build a daily plan. It includes 2 full weeks of live community access so you can experience the trading room before committing. The $200/month community gives you ongoing live sessions, the full education library, Discord, and weekly journal reviews. The 90-day mentorship includes a full year of community membership — so your learning and access continues long after the personal coaching ends.

What does the live trading room actually look like?+

Sessions run on Zoom, Monday through Friday. Pre-market prep starts at 9:15 AM ET where we review key levels and build the day's plan together. The live session runs from 9:30 to 11:00 AM ET. Every trade is narrated — entry logic, stop placement, sizing, and management — so you are always learning, not just watching. All sessions are recorded and available in the Members Portal within two hours.

How much time do I need each week?+

The live session runs 90 minutes each morning. Outside of that, time spent journaling and reviewing the education library is entirely at your own pace. Members who attend sessions consistently and keep a trade journal tend to progress the fastest. If you cannot make a session, the replay is always available.

Are sessions recorded if I miss one?+

Yes — every session is recorded and posted to the Members Portal within two hours of ending. You can also find all replays in the #replay-archive channel on Discord. The full archive is available to all active members so you can go back and review any session at any time.

Can I cancel my membership anytime?+

Yes. The $200/month community can be cancelled at any time with no penalties. Your access continues through the end of your current billing period. visit billing.stripe.com/p/login/cNi7sN8TI2CYfER0wHaZi00 and Members can cancel directly through the Stripe customer portal.

How do I apply for the 90-day mentorship?+

Use the contact form and select the mentorship option. Tell us a bit about where you are in your trading journey and what you are hoping to achieve. We will be in touch within one business day to schedule a short discovery call. There are currently 3 founding spots available at $1,997.

Do you provide trade signals or trade alerts?+

No. This is an education community, not a signal service. During live sessions you will see and hear the full rationale behind every trade — but the goal is always for you to understand the process, not to copy a click. Building your own understanding is the only thing that leads to lasting results.
