- People who already have a Demat account but buy on tips and want to understand what they are doing

Prerequisites: none. Basic maths and a smartphone or laptop are enough. You do not need a trading account to start the course.
What you will learn
1. How the market works
What shares, indices and derivatives are; how NSE and BSE work; the role of SEBI, brokers and depositories; market timings, order types and settlement; and what a Demat and trading account actually do.
2. Fundamental analysis basics
Reading a company’s business, revenue and profit trends, key ratios such as P/E and debt-to-equity, and why a good company is not automatically a good trade.
3. Technical analysis basics
Candlesticks, timeframes, trend, support and resistance, common chart patterns, volume and a few widely used indicators. Start with our free guide on how to read a price chart.
4. Risk management
Stop-loss placement, position sizing, risk-to-reward and how much of your capital to risk on a single trade. This is the part most beginners skip.
5. Trading psychology
Fear of missing out, revenge trading, overtrading and keeping a trading journal so your decisions follow a written plan.
How classes run
The morning batch runs during market hours, so concepts are explained on live charts as the market moves. The evening batch covers the same syllabus after market hours using the day’s charts. Classroom and online students follow the same course, and every session is recorded so you can revise or catch up on a missed class.
Certificate and NISM preparation
On completing the course you receive a Traders Mantra certificate of completion. This is an institute certificate, not a regulatory licence. We also help students prepare for the NISM Series VIII Equity Derivatives certification exam, which is conducted by the National Institute of Securities Markets; the exam itself is booked and taken separately with NISM.
What to learn after this course
Once the basics are clear, most students move on to the Technical Analysis course or the Options Trading course. Advanced students later study Elliott Wave. See all courses.
Students from across Tricity
Our only institute is in Sector 34A, Chandigarh. Students travel from Mohali, Panchkula and Zirakpur, and anyone who cannot travel can join the same batch online.
