How Candleread gets paid

Learning on Candleread is free. You never need a broker account to use the lessons, quizzes or calculators.

If you open or use an account through one of our partner links, Candleread can get paid. You do not pay more because of it.

Genesis FX is a broker. It is the one broker partner on Candleread, and it is the broker Vino uses. Genesis lists its company as Genesis FX Markets Ltd, registered in Saint Lucia. That is not the same as a top tier regulator in your home country.

TradingView is chart software. Some of our links to it are partner links too.

Genesis can pay Candleread when someone opens an account through our link. The pay can also depend on how much that person trades. So Candleread can earn more when a person who came from our link trades more.

That is a real conflict, and we want you to know it. Never trade more, deposit more or pick a broker to help us.

TradingView can pay Candleread when someone signs up or buys a plan through our link.

The lessons, quizzes, XP, streaks and badges are the same for everyone, partner or not. We never reward opening an account, putting in money or trading. Pay does not decide what we teach.

Our broker guide shows how to check any broker yourself, not only Genesis.

1. Practice on a demo account with pretend money.
2. Run the broker checklist in Grade 9: Broker Smarts: regulator, company, costs and a small test withdrawal.
3. Only use real money you can afford to lose. Start small.

Trading forex, crypto, stocks, futures, options and CFDs can lose money, even all of it. Past results do not promise future results. Candleread is education, not financial advice.

Candleread does not decide if a broker can serve your country. Read the broker's own current terms and check your local rules before you open or fund any account.

You will see a small Paid partner link tag next to it. That tag brings you to this page.

Genesis links around Candleread go to our Genesis page first, where you can read the facts and the risk before you leave. Partner links to other sites go through a Candleread link first, like /go/genesis-fx or /go/tradingview.
