Origin

Why we built this.

Deeyana founded Market Stalkers because the gap between what serious traders actually do and what is taught in retail trading courses had become absurd. There was no shortage of trading content. There was a near-total shortage of documented, accredited frameworks an adult could run on their own without becoming dependent on someone else's daily calls.

Some sections expanded when students kept asking the same questions. CPD accreditation requires an annual curriculum review to keep content up to date. There have been no major rewrites: the framework we built in 2018 is the framework we teach today.

The team

Who teaches and who builds.

In 2015, Blahtech acquired Market Stalkers, joining forces to bring institutional-grade trading tools to independent traders. Market Stalkers then built out the educational content with the same goal in mind. Deeyana teaches and coaches. James leads Blahtech on the tech side: trading tools and indicators.

Train alongside the team.

The Pro Development Program is the same methodology this team uses on live accounts every day.

A note on what this is, and what this isn't. Market Stalkers is an educational program. We teach a methodology: we do not manage your money, we do not give you trade calls, and nothing on this site is investment advice. Trading futures involves substantial risk of loss. The majority of retail traders lose money. Past results do not predict future results. Testimonials describe individual experiences and are not indicative of future performance for any other trader. Study the curriculum. Decide if it fits how you think. Trade only what you can afford to be wrong about.
