Go to the steps

A message from Nick Engels

Welcome, and thank you for being here.

You may have noticed things were quieter for a few weeks. That was not a pause in commitment. It was the work needed to give this community a proper, independent foundation: a new broker partnership and the setup behind it, the move to our own home, a clear onboarding route and the groundwork for the member platform.

Live sessions continue Monday to Thursday, and trade ideas and scanner updates are shared in the community as before. Over the coming months, the academy, scanner 2.0 and the trading journal will be added step by step.

My promise is simple: honest education, no hype and no pressure. Let's walk this journey together.

Onboarding

Six steps, one at a time.

  1. 1

    Read how we work

    We teach a calm, process-driven approach with risk management at its core. Please read the risk disclosure before you continue, so you know exactly what trading involves.

  2. 2

    Open your VT Markets account

    Register with our partner broker through the button below. Using this link is what connects your account to Journey to Freedom and gives you access to the community.

    Registration link coming soon
  3. 3

    Fund only what you can afford to lose

    You do not need a large account to learn. Around $100 is enough to follow along and practise with small positions. Never deposit money you need for anything else.

  4. 4

    Confirm your registration

    Let us know through the onboarding route in the community that you have registered, and we will confirm it with the broker. We will never ask for your password, card details or ID documents. Those only ever go to the broker directly.

  5. 5

    Join the community and turn on announcements

    Once confirmed, you get full access. Turn on notifications for the announcement channel so you never miss a session time or an update.

    Community link coming soon
  6. 6

    Join your first live session

    Sessions run Monday to Thursday. Come along, watch, ask questions. There is no pressure to trade. Learning comes first.

Your account, deposits and withdrawals are handled entirely by VT Markets. Journey to Freedom never holds your money and never needs your login details.

Before you start

Trading forex, CFDs and other leveraged products carries a high level of risk and may not be suitable for everyone. Leverage works against you as well as for you, and you can lose some or all of the money you deposit. Only trade with money you can afford to lose.

Journey to Freedom provides education and community. We do not provide financial, investment or tax advice. Trade ideas, scanner notifications and live analysis are shared as educational examples, not as recommendations to buy or sell. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results, and no result shown or discussed is typical or guaranteed.
