Why Farol

Accounts rarely die from one bad idea. They die from a position that was too big, a stop that wasn't there and a broker nobody checked. Most retail traders lose money. A lighthouse doesn't calm the sea: it shows you where the rocks are, and AI reviews your journal to show where you hit them.

The Farol method

Protect the account first,then review every trade with AI.

Learn what can hurt an account, test one strategy on 100 backtest trades, then trade from a written plan with fixed limits and a journal that AI helps you review. No step is skipped.

  • 01

    Size from the stop

    Decide what you can lose first, then work out the position. Never the other way round.

  • 02

    A daily loss limit

    A number written down before the session opens. When you reach it, the platform closes for the day.

  • 03

    Hidden exposure

    Three trades on correlated pairs can be one big trade. You learn to count risk per idea, not per ticket.

  • 04

    Slippage and gaps

    Why a stop can fill worse than its price, and how to plan for weekends and news without guessing.

  • 05

    Check before you deposit

    How to look up a firm on the CVM (and CMVM) websites, read its terms and test what protections it really offers.

  • 06

    Scam patterns

    Guaranteed returns, "account managers", Pix to a personal account, recovery offers: the signs, and what to do.

10 losses in a row: what's left

risk per trade
  • 0.5%−4.9%
  • 1%−9.6%
  • 2%−18.3%
  • 5%−40.1%

The same losing streak takes 4.9% of the account at 0.5% risk and 40.1% at 5%. Getting back from −40% needs about +67%.

Illustrative calculation, not an expectation of results.

Curriculum

7 courses.From your first stop to trading with AI.

Risk is a number you choose before the trade, not a feeling after it. The course starts with that number, then the stop, the size, the costs and the broker, and finally Trading with AI: AI that reviews your journal and tests your scenarios.

Prop firms

Understand how prop firms work,then check your trades with AI.

We don't sell challenges or funded accounts and aren't affiliated with any prop firm or broker. Prop firm rules are risk rules: a daily loss limit, a maximum loss and position limits. The Holofote plan teaches how they work, how to manage risk inside them, and how to use AI to check your journal against those rules.

All questions
Do I need experience?

No. The Lume plan starts from absolute zero.

Do the courses teach trading with AI?

Yes. Every plan includes the new Trading with AI module (coming soon). The Augmented Trader course, in the Holofote plan, goes further and teaches you to use AI to review your journal, summarise the news before the session and test your scenarios, plus alerts you set yourself and advanced backtesting. AI helps you prepare and review; it doesn't trade for you or send signals.

How much money do I need to start trading?

We recommend practising on a demo account throughout the course. Prop firms charge their own challenge fees, which vary by firm; we don't sell challenges.

Do you give buy and sell signals?

No. Farol Markets is a school. We teach you to make your own decisions with clear rules.

Does it work if I have a full-time job?

Yes. The Playbook has strategies for short time windows and a swing strategy (Weekly Zone) that needs only a few minutes a day.

How long do I have access?

24 months on the Lume and Facho plans and 36 months on Holofote, counted from the date you bought your plan.

How do I pay?

You pay once on Whop's secure checkout: by card, Apple Pay, Google Pay or crypto. Then you come back to Farol Markets and get your login by email.
