THE BROKER I USE
I trade gold with Exness
It’s where my own account is. If you want to open one, you can use my partner link. Exness pays me a commission if you do, at no extra cost to you. Any broker works with the lessons.
Open an Exness accountTrading CFDs on margin carries a high risk of losing money quickly. Only trade with money you can afford to lose.
Questions people ask
Is it really free?
Yes. The lessons, the tools and the Telegram channel and group are all free. There's no paid group and nothing to upgrade to.
Do you give signals or tell me what to trade?
No. JCKL Trading is education only: how gold moves, liquidity, structure, sessions and risk, explained with past charts. You make your own decisions.
I'm a complete beginner. Is this for me?
Yes. The daily lessons start from the basics and build up one idea at a time. If something doesn't make sense, tap “Didn't get it” under the lesson and ask.
Do I need an Exness account?
No. The lessons work with any broker. Exness is simply the broker I use; if you open an account through my link, they pay me a commission at no cost to you.
Why Telegram?
