Learn first.
Then trade.
A free trading academy in English. You learn to read the market and manage risk step by step, and you practice on a demo account with HFM before putting your own money at risk.
Risk Warning: Your capital is at risk.
The Arco method
Four pillars. One arc.
From your first chart to your first trade with a plan. Each pillar builds on the one before, and none gets skipped.
- 01
Analysis
Learn to read price: structure, trends, support and resistance zones, and the economic calendar that moves the market.
- 02
Risk
Before you enter, how much you can lose. Position size, stop loss and leverage, explained plainly.
- 03
Judgment
A written plan, clear rules and a trading journal. Knowing when not to trade is part of the work too.
- 04
Execution
From theory to the platform: orders, trade management and review, practicing first on a demo account.

Frequently asked questions
What everyone asks
How much does Arco cost?
Nothing. The academy is free. If you decide to open a live account with HFM, Arco may receive compensation from HFM; it costs you nothing extra.
Do I need experience?
No. The program starts from zero: what gets traded, how a broker works and how to use the platform. If you already trade, you can go straight to the risk and plan modules.
Does Arco handle my money?
No. Arco is an academy. Your account is opened directly with HFM, and you deposit, trade and withdraw from it.
What is a demo account?
A practice account with virtual money. You see the market in real time and trade without risking capital. It is the place to learn.
How much do I need to start?
To learn and practice on demo, nothing. For a live account, the minimum deposit is set by HFM according to the account type you choose.
Do you give signals or investment advice?
No. Arco teaches you to analyze and manage risk so you make your own decisions. We do not give trading signals or investment recommendations, and we do not manage accounts.
Can you make money for sure?
No. Trading leveraged products carries a high risk and you can lose your capital. Nobody can guarantee profits; be wary of anyone who does.
