FAQ

Does the training program also cover basic topics, or is prior knowledge required?

The training program is suitable for both beginners and experienced traders, as it allows you to delve into everything you need to know to become a professional systematic trader, from A to Z. Nothing is taken for granted. It starts with the basics and progresses to more advanced topics: financial markets, trading systems, coding, methodology, analysis, money management, portfolio management, plus various bonuses.

How is the training conducted at Unger Academy®?

The training program consists of a collection of printed manuals, video and audio lessons, slides, group coaching calls (including all past recordings), and access to an exclusive community. You can download all the materials available in the private area, necessary to create your trading systems.

In the private area, you can also access pre-recorded videos for each module of the program. These videos are always available, allowing you to progress at your own pace.

You can participate in weekly coaching calls where we will help you resolve your doubts more quickly, enabling you to fine-tune what you’ve learned throughout the week. Through the training program, you'll learn what to do and how to do it, while the coaching calls will help you adjust your approach if needed.

Who is the host of the group coaching calls?

The group coaching calls are led by Certified Coaches from Unger Academy®. These Certified Coaches are traders personally mentored by Andrea Unger, have completed the entire program, and possess in-depth knowledge of the Unger™ Method.

How many students participate in the coaching calls?

An average of 15 students participate in each coaching call. Ensuring that every question is answered is very important to Andrea, and to date, no student has ever left without receiving a response to their question. In the future, if the calls become crowded and students are unable to get their questions answered, we will simply add an additional call.

What is the purpose of the Facebook group?

The group is designed to facilitate interaction among Unger Academy members: to exchange ideas and share experiences. For direct support from the Coaches, there are the weekly coaching calls. Andrea believes in providing thorough and detailed answers, and the Facebook group is not the most suitable place for that purpose.

How often are the weekly coaching calls held (and how long do they last)? What happens if I can’t attend?

There are multiple calls per week, divided by knowledge level. They are usually held in the evening, and each call lasts about an hour and a half. All calls are recorded and uploaded to the private area within two business days. Additionally, every question is timestamped, allowing you to quickly locate it within the recording. This way, you can listen only to the parts that interest you, based on your level.

How long will it take me to complete the program?

The program's timeline is self-paced and managed by the student. There is no requirement to complete it within a specific timeframe. You can progress as quickly or as slowly as you prefer. For those who study diligently week by week, the program can be completed in as little as 3 months. You will receive your login credentials for the private area via email, and the printed manuals will be sent to you by mail.

What is the difference between this program and other trading courses?

First of all, this is not just a course. It is a high-level, interactive program. The program consists of multiple modules, complemented by a coaching program, videos, audio lessons, slides, and an exclusive community.

What sets Andrea apart from others is that he is the only trader to have won the World Cup Trading Championships® four times, with students who have also gone on to win the same championship. This proves that his teachings are universally applicable, replicable, and grounded in scientific principles.

So, if you are someone who wants to learn from the best—with proven results in the field—and from someone who has trained hundreds of professional systematic traders starting from scratch (without needing to be a NASA engineer), then this program is for you.

Will ready-to-use trading systems be provided for live trading?

The material includes some trading systems along with the procedure to develop them. In addition, new trading systems are regularly shared by students within the community. However, it would be limiting to join solely to obtain ready-made systems.

The primary goal of the program is to make you an independent trader by teaching you how to create your own trading systems and equipping you with the skills to navigate ever-changing markets.

"Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime..."

Keep in mind that the systems provided may eventually stop performing as they once did. However, the methodology used to develop them will remain effective forever.

Which platform does Andrea use for backtesting and optimizations?

Andrea uses MultiCharts, which has a LifeTime license cost of $1,497 (available to Unger Academy® students at a discounted price of $1,097).

For live trading, you can use the broker of your choice. Andrea personally uses Interactive Brokers.

Is the program constantly updated?

Yes! Andrea publishes all updates directly within the private area.

As soon as new content is ready, Andrea adds it to the training program to ensure it is always up-to-date. Being a high-level interactive program, the content is constantly updated. Of course, you can suggest additions, which will be reviewed and included in the private area for the benefit of all students.

I’m a beginner in trading and programming. Is this program suitable for me?

Andrea primarily uses MultiCharts for backtesting and live trading because its programming language is one of the easiest to learn (and he’s not a programmer).

We believe anyone can succeed, but it does take time to fully absorb all the concepts!

If you use a different platform, you can continue using it if you prefer, as the method taught is universal and works on any platform. However, we only provide support for MultiCharts, as that’s the platform we use ourselves.

In the videos, we demonstrate the process of developing strategies with the goal of making students independent in their learning journey. To help with this, we provide strategies that have performed well in the past and are still performing reasonably well today. Of course, no one has a crystal ball, so we can’t guarantee they will continue to perform well in the future. What we can say is that they are currently yielding good results.

Always remember that the main purpose of the program is to teach students how to develop their own strategies independently. A trading system can break at any time (stop performing as well as it did in the past), and it’s essential for a trader to be able to manage the situation and act quickly.

Can I take the program together with my child or a relative?

Relatives are more than welcome to assist you in your learning journey. They can join you during the weekly coaching calls to help with technical questions, participating either actively or passively.

However, your relatives cannot attend the calls on their own—your presence is always required. Feel free to share your login credentials for the private area with them, but only your profile will be authorized to access the private Facebook group.

Is the training program suitable only for those who want to trade Futures, or can it be applied to other financial instruments as well?

Since this program provides a method, it can be applied to developing systems for a wide variety of financial instruments.

  • If you want to trade stocks, this program is for you.

  • If you want to trade cryptocurrencies, this program is for you.

  • If you want to trade Forex, this program is for you.

  • If you want to trade CFDs, this program is for you.

  • If you want to trade a large portfolio of systems, this program is definitely suitable for your needs.

For this specific case, you’ll need to see how Titan works (our strategy selection automation software). We recommend consulting with the Coaches for expert advice on how to use it effectively.

Is prior knowledge of how markets work required, or are the basics included in the program?

The program is designed to support both beginners with no trading experience and those who are more advanced in the field. Everything related to systematic trading is covered within the program. The only prerequisite is knowing how to use a computer.

What starting capital is recommended for systematic trading?

The amount of capital required is closely tied to the type of strategies you develop. For example:

  • If you develop strategies for Forex or Cryptocurrencies, you can split trades into smaller amounts and start with a lower capital using mini or micro lots.

  • Trading Dax Futures requires a higher notional value, and the capital needed depends on factors like the maximum loss per trade and the strategy's drawdown. In this case, exposure can be reduced by trading the Mini Dax.

    For a clearer reference:

  • To trade instruments like the Mini Dax or similar contracts, you’ll need around $20,000 in initial capital.

  • For Forex and Cryptocurrencies, there is no strict minimum capitalization, as you can scale down significantly with mini and micro lots. Do you currently have less than $20,000 available?

Watch this video: Opportunity + Preparation = Success

If you want to trade more "expensive" instruments like Dax Futures, Silver, Crude Oil, and others, small capital amounts won’t suffice. We recommend approximately $100,000—this applies to full contracts, not mini, micro, or CFDs—to comfortably handle drawdown periods. With a single strategy, the required capital could be reduced to around $50,000.

What annual return can I expect using your short-term trading strategies while risking no more than 1% of my net capital per trade?

You're referring to "my" strategies, but during the lessons, you'll acquire the knowledge needed to develop "your own" trading systems... which will naturally lead to different results!

A single strategy applied with a 1% risk per trade might yield an annual return of 30% or even 0% if it's not tradable under such risk constraints, as not all strategies can be implemented with a 1% risk.

The overall performance also depends on the number of active strategies in your portfolio. With a reasonably diversified portfolio and that level of risk, you could aim for an average annual return of 25–35%. However, there isn't a universal mathematical formula to precisely estimate it as a general tool.

Is the Unger Academy® training program suitable for me?

The only way to be sure that the program is right for you (and that you’re right for the program) is through a strategic consultation. This allows our team to assess your personal situation and determine if we can help you.

We won’t recommend anything unless we are 100% confident that you can acquire the skills necessary to achieve your trading goals. Our success rate is extremely high because, through the call, we carefully select participants and work only with people we are certain we can assist. And the only way to find out is by joining a call with us.

We look forward to speaking with you!
