Learning to Trade Without the Confusion

We started novalinkturbo in 2023 because we got tired of watching beginners make the same mistakes we did. Trading doesn't have to feel like guesswork when you actually understand what's happening.

Where This Actually Began

Back in 2019, I lost about three thousand dollars in my first six months of trading. Not because I was reckless—I'd read books, watched videos, even paid for a course. But none of it clicked until someone sat down and explained what was really going on behind those candlestick charts.

That moment changed everything. Suddenly the patterns made sense. Risk management wasn't just a boring checklist anymore. And I realized most beginners weren't failing because they were dumb or unlucky. They were failing because nobody explained things in a way that actually made sense.

So we built novalinkturbo around that idea. Real education for people who are starting from scratch. No assuming you already know the jargon. No shortcuts that sound great but blow up your account three weeks later.

What Guides Our Teaching

These aren't just nice words on a website. They're the principles we come back to when we're building lessons and answering student questions.

Honest Education

We tell you when something's difficult. We explain why certain strategies fail more often than they work. If there's no magic shortcut, we say so.

Real Context

Every concept gets explained with actual market examples from recent years. You'll see why certain approaches worked in 2024 but might need adjusting for current conditions.

Practical Focus

Less theory, more application. We'd rather you understand five strategies deeply than memorize fifty terms you'll never use.

How We Got Here

2023

Started Teaching Locally

Ran weekend workshops in Taipei for about twenty people. Most of them were frustrated with courses they'd already tried. We focused on fixing the gaps in their knowledge rather than starting from scratch.

2024

Moved Everything Online

Built the platform you're looking at now. Added video lessons, practice exercises, and a forum where students could ask questions without feeling stupid. Started getting messages from people in other countries who found us through word of mouth.

2025

Expanded the Curriculum

Added advanced modules for students who'd finished the basics and wanted to keep going. Brought in guest instructors who specialize in options and futures. Our autumn 2025 program launches in September.

Who's Actually Teaching You

Small team, but everyone here has spent real money learning these lessons the hard way. We're not career educators who happened to pick trading as a topic. We trade, and we teach what we wish someone had taught us.

Lead Instructor

I spent eight years trading equities before I started teaching in 2022. Lost plenty of money early on—mostly because I ignored risk management and chased momentum without understanding why prices were actually moving.

These days I focus on helping beginners avoid the expensive mistakes I made. I'm not here to make trading sound exciting or promise you'll get rich. But if you want to understand what you're doing and make decisions based on actual analysis rather than hope, I can help with that.

Outside of teaching, I still trade my own account. Keeps me honest about what works and what doesn't in real market conditions.

How We Actually Teach This Stuff

Four core ideas that shape every lesson we create.

Start With Why, Not What

Before we teach you a trading strategy, we explain the market conditions where it makes sense. You'll understand the logic behind the technique, not just memorize the steps.

Practice With Real Scenarios

Every module includes exercises based on actual market movements from the past two years. You'll analyze real charts, spot real patterns, and see what happened next.

Build Your Own System

We're not selling you a magic formula. Instead, you'll learn how to evaluate different approaches and figure out what fits your schedule, risk tolerance, and goals.

Keep It Current

Markets change. We update examples and case studies every quarter to reflect what's actually happening now, not what worked in 2018.
