I have never read a chart before.
Start with lesson 1. Every term is defined, every example is visual, and every quiz explains why the answer is right.

Free course - Pro reps - Desk Playbook
Learn to read charts before you risk the trade.
Candleread is the free trading course, practice app, and desk playbook path for people who want to understand candles, structure, risk, and execution without chasing signals.
Education only. No signals, no managed account, no account login required.
55 app lessons
plain-language chart reading
55 quizzes
practice after each concept
35 challenges
daily reps that build recall
16 tools
calculators for risk and planning
Built for actual beginners
The path is simple: learn one rule, prove it with reps, then move up.
The free surface has to be strong enough to earn trust on its own. Pro and the course only make sense after someone feels the system helping them see the chart more clearly.
Step 1
Learn the candle
Start with what each candle is telling you: open, close, wick, body, pressure, and rejection.
Step 2
Read structure
Move from single candles into trend, breaks of structure, supply, demand, liquidity, and session context.
Step 3
Practice the decision
Use quizzes, calculators, scenarios, and chart examples before you risk a funded account.
Step 4
Build the desk routine
When the basics are proven, Pro and the Desk Playbook add the repeatable operating system.
Objection handling
Every page should answer the fear before asking for the click.
I tried YouTube and got more confused.
Candleread uses one consistent method so you are not stitching together random opinions from different creators.
I do not know what platform or broker to use.
Use TradingView for chart reps, then review the Genesis account path when you are ready to compare a broker setup.
I am scared to lose money.
Good. The course puts risk, stops, position size, and journaling before live execution. No lesson requires funding an account.
Product ladder
Free should be useful. Paid should feel obvious.
The conversion path is not pressure. It is proof: if the free system helps, Pro adds reps. If Pro makes the chart clearer, the Desk Playbook adds the full operating system.

Practice on TradingView. Review Genesis when you are ready to compare an account path.
Candleread teaches the process first. TradingView is the chart workspace traders already use. Genesis is presented with affiliate disclosure and methodology context: instant deposits, withdrawals within 4 hours when eligible, and a funding path after the rules are understood.
