Thousands of Hours of Insight — Delivered in Less Than 10

Become a better and more confident investor by learning from the best.

Becoming a better investor is a lifelong journey. And not an easy one. You have to learn from the world’s best investors without blindly copying them.

You have to apply textbook knowledge in the real world (always tricky). You have to avoid charlatans (increasingly tricky). You have to avoid information and data paralysis.

Urgh.

All this pain is why we developed The Real Investing Course.

1. It’s game-changing — delivering insights you won’t find anywhere elsefrom dozens of professional investors.
2. It’s super-charged — distilling thousands of hours of knowledgeand delivering it to you in less than 10.
3. It’s lock, stock and barrel — Real Vision acquired and built on the Lex van Dam Trading Academy, a blockbuster investing coursebased on the frameworks developed at one of the top London trading desks.

Oh, and forget about bland PowerPoint presentations by somebody in a shirt…

The Real Investing Course is filmed in an underground bunker, a cinema, and a bar, so you know it’s definitely not boring…

The Game of Investing

It’s easy to think the Game of Investing is rigged, or that the markets (or their players) want to mess you up. Reality is that it’s about assessing inputs of information to generate money-making investments. Simple(!)

This 3-lesson module focuses on the broader game, some of its core rules, and some principles to help you navigate the playing field, the players, and the mistakes they make.

What You’ll Learn:

• How to figure out your own investing style instead of relying on others
• Why the idea of “Mr. Market” is B.S. (and so is the idea of an investing “holy grail”)
• The actual first steps you need to take to conquer the inner game of investing
• The 4 core market truths you need to put on a Post-It beside your computer
• How to assess your ‘5 types of capital’ (not just your financial capital)
• How to use context to rein in the wall of information we’re all bombarded with everyday
• And more

At the End You Will:
Be an emotionally more self-aware investor… Learn (or confirm) your investing style… Curate your information diet wisely.

The Stuff That Drives Markets

Market drivers are a kind of Russian doll ecosystem, with a number of trends of various time horizons co-existing at any one point in time.

This 7-module lesson will give you a solid foundation in understanding co-existing (and seemingly conflicting) trends — because if the trends don’t make sense to you, you’ll feel in the dark with your portfolio…

What You’ll Learn:

The Art (& Science) of Charts

Like most tools in investing, charts need to be handled carefully and well if they are to help you stack the probabilities in your favor and manage risk well enough that you get to continue to play the game.

This 6-lesson module focuses on the value of charts as a tool in everyone’s framework.

What You’ll Learn:

The Asset Class Universe

The core asset class universe is made up of equities, fixed income, commodities, currencies, and digital assets.

What You’ll Learn:

• How to identify the common drivers behind asset price performance

Feel more confident constructing and managing your own portfolio… Be able to apply the ‘rules’ of risk management… Be able to tailor your portfolio construction based on you instead of applying a general structure and hoping for the best.

How You’ll Learn:

The course is designed to develop your approach to investing. Even if you have been doing it for years, it will force you to go back and stress test your process, something any investor and trader should do.

Here’s the approach to each module:

1. First, we cover the core ideas and concepts for each module in the Basics
2. Then we review these ideas and concepts in laidback Discussions with Roger Hirst, Jamie McDonald and James Helliwell. Here, you’ll learn different nuances from 3 pros who each look at markets differently
3. Next, we unlock the insights from the Real Vision archives and learn From the Pros, including Raoul Pal, Chris Cole, Lyn Alden, Mark Ritchie II, and Pierre Andurand
4. Then, Roger pulls it altogether in action-focused Workshops, which feature practical activities, actionable strategies, and various investing scenarios – all the real world stuff.
