Earn the Wings.

The Order-Flow Certification: four modules from first launch to a signed-off playbook — every drill runs inside TRADEDESK™ on replay, so you build reps with zero dollars at risk. Budget two weeks per module at 30–45 minutes a day. Slower is fine; skipping drills is not.

The doctrine of reps

Study. Drill. Checkride.

Pilots don't learn in the storm, and neither do desk traders. Every module pairs field-manual study with graded replay drills, and ends with a checkride you either pass or repeat. No participation trophies — the certificate means the reps happened.

M1Instrument Rating — read every panel coldPRO
Field manual §01–03, §07–10. Then, on replay at 4×: identify heatmap walls that hold vs. walk across ten examples, read footprint delta aloud bar by bar for twenty bars, and mark the POC, VAH and VAL of a session before checking the profile panel.
Checkride: hover any bar and explain every number in the tooltip without looking anything up.
M2Detection School — the six signals, in the wildPRO
Field manual §11. On each of five replayed sessions: pause at every A / T / X / I / S / W glyph and log — with or against the day's direction? What happened over the next ten bars? Build your own hit-rate table per signal, per regime.
Checkride: from a paused chart, call the next glyph likely to fire and why — six of ten justified calls passes.
M3The Playbook — six setups, executed on replayELITE
Field manual §12–13. Trade each setup ten times on replayed sessions using the risk panel for every entry: log entry, stop, target, R result — and, most important, whether the invalidation was honoured. Sixty logged reps total, with real CME history strongly recommended.
Checkride: a 60-trade journal where 100% of losers were exited at the stated invalidation. Win rate is not graded; discipline is.
M4Solo — your edge, coded and measuredELITE
Field manual §15. Pick your best setup from M3 and encode its conditions as a TDScript study — start from the matching preset, adjust thresholds to your logged data. Run it across ten fresh sessions and compare its marks to your discretionary calls.
Checkride: present one page — the setup, the script, the stats, and the three conditions under which you will not trade it. That page is your desk certification.
What you're flying toward

The Desk Certification

Not a badge for watching videos. A record that sixty graded reps happened, every invalidation was honoured, and your edge survived being written down.

MY TRADER PRO

ORDER-FLOW CERTIFIED
TRADEDESK™ · DESK CERTIFICATION

Awarded on completion of all four checkrides: instrument rating, detection school, the sixty-rep playbook, and the solo study. Your certification page lives in ✈️ Flight School — Stage 6 of your member portal — alongside your logged reps.

The certification measures process discipline on simulated and historical data. It is not a qualification to manage money, a performance claim, or investment advice. Trading involves substantial risk of loss.

The lessons and checkrides run in ✈️ Flight School inside your member portal — Stage 6, after the five platform stages. The drills themselves run in TRADEDESK™'s Deep Replay. Pro unlocks M1–M2; Elite unlocks the full track.
