Hentrad / The journey
One year.Four stages.
You start with training, not trading. Every stage has to be earned before the next one opens, and all of it happens inside the Hentrad app, on your phone or your laptop.
01
Training
11 days, one course a day
Your fee ($3 per $1,000 of account) opens an eleven-day course: 61 short lessons in eleven courses, one course a day, from "what is a currency pair" to writing your own trading plan. Each day opens the morning after you finish the one before, starts with a three-question warm-up from earlier lessons, and ends with a checkpoint, then a practice brief for the desk. Doji, your course buddy, keeps you company.
Alongside the lessons you trade a practice account the size you chose under exactly the rules a funded trader follows: a daily line, a stop on every trade, and no trading once the day is done. One lesson, for example, checks that you don't jump straight back in after a loss.
- Trading from zero: pairs, candles, pips, the spread
- Market structure & price action
- Market conditions: trends, ranges, chaos and breakouts
- Entry & exit execution
- Trading psychology foundations
- Handling losing streaks & tilt
- Position sizing & risk per trade
- Losing days and the daily line
- The Hentrad trading philosophy
- Trading as a business, not a bet
- The complete trader, and a final review on day 11
02
Evaluation
After the course and practice
The evaluation has two halves, and you need both. It's deliberately tough: a trader who is skilled but careless with risk shouldn't slip through on a good average.
- The exam. 30 questions in 25 minutes, timed like a professional exam: real trading situations, not definitions. Choose-one questions, "select all that apply" questions marked all or nothing, and typed answers you work out yourself, such as pips, dollars at risk or lot sizes. Every sitting draws a different paper, so no two traders, and no retake, see the same one. Pass with 80% overall and at least 70% in each area: technical analysis, money management, trading psychology and the Hentrad way.
- Reviewed, not instant. Like a professional exam, your result isn't shown when you submit. It's reviewed and emailed to you within 24 hours, area by area. If you don't pass, you can retake it 24 hours after your result.
- Your practice record. At least 10 practice trades, in any market, within the rules.
- Risk kept small. No more than 1% of the practice balance risked on a trade, and never more than a 10% drawdown.
03
Verification
Week 3
One trading week under full funded rules. It's the bridge between practice and a funded account: the same week a funded trader would need to keep their place.
- At least 8 trades, on at least 5 different days
- No more than 2 losing days in the week
- Finish the week in profit
Pass, and your funded account opens along with your first Hentrad badge: Certified Trader.
04
Funded
Weeks 4–52
You trade a funded account of $1,000 to $5,000, the size you chose, for the rest of the year. Every limit grows with it: a $3,000 account's line is ±$6 a day at Level 1. You never deposit money; the account and its trading risk are Hentrad's. Your job is to follow the rules and trade well.
- Level up through profitable weeks. Each level raises your daily line and stays yours once earned.
- Share in profit each week your account closes at a new high. How profit share works
- Graduate at the end of the journey, when your empowerment fund is released.
↺
If you're withdrawn
The way back
Three losing days in a row, or three within five, pauses your funded run. It isn't the end. Every professional has a stretch like this.
- Pay the reinstatement fee ($1.50 per $1,000 of account) and you continue right where you stopped: same balance, same level, same empowerment fund. No test week.
- Before you do, Doji walks you through it: the days that ended the run, what to change, and a small plan for your first days back. Doji stays beside you on the desk while you settle in.
- Lose again? Come back again, as many times as you need, until your journey's year ends.
