- Why CTN?
Because Most traders
Never Become Professional Traders
Every year, thousands of people invest in trading courses, indicators, software, chat rooms, and “hot tips” hoping the next strategy will finally change their results.
For a while, it feels exciting. Then reality sets in.
The emotional decisions return. Small losses become big losses.
Winning trades are exited too early. Losing trades are held too long.
Confidence disappears. The cycle repeats.
The problem isn’t a lack of intelligence. And it usually isn’t a lack of information.
The problem is that most traders are never taught how to think, prepare, and perform like a Professional Trader.
That’s why we created Professional Trader Development™.
Instead of simply teaching trading strategies, we focus on developing the person behind every trading decision.
Through structured education, live coaching, accountability, and our Professional Trader Standards™, you’ll learn how to replace emotional decision-making with disciplined execution, build consistent habits, manage risk with confidence, and develop a professional trading skill designed to serve you for years to come.
Because successful trading isn't built on hope. It's build on the

Hello Candace, I hope you enjoyed your vacations and are back more refresh to continue with your mission of teaching the art of trading futures. As I meditate on the abundance of blessings in my life, first I thank my Lord for sending or putting you in my life. I give Him thanks for all the talents he has given you, so you can help people like me. Today I made $4,965.00 in 3 hours. With great gratitude to God and you

"My husband and I joined the Mastery coaching a few months back, and honestly, I'm blow away how much fun trading together is! Before Candace, I was intimidated by all the high tech math I thought was necessary. Silly me! I only trade her simple 'A' Trade Explosion and nail it most of the time! (I'm a better trader than Rick, but don't tell him!)

The High ROI Coaching was a life saver for me. Candace was able to watch over my shoulder as I traded and right away she saw the mistakes I was making. With her guidance and care I am now consistently profitable!

This is amazing and extremely impressive. I know these charts and indicators are the fruit of many years of work for you. And I know how much it has helped Megan and my family, so I wanted to give you a sincere thank you from me, and my family.

I've been a student's of Candace in the High ROI Mastery Coaching and there's no way to tell you how much I have improved! I hate to admit that I was wrong, but her intuitive eye for correcting small trading issues that deliver big results got my attention. Watching over my shoulder as I traded live was the real eye opener. You don't have to be right, just win the game! This coaching showed me how to get out of my own way and allow my gut instincts to work.

I’m up live money today by $265. They were momentum trades more than A- trades however they were close to A trades to start and I just picked up on their momentum. I would have called them out but it mostly happened after the JOLTS news when everything was happening so quickly.
