Built by a trader, for traders.

The Mentor

I'm Mike, the founder and lead mentor at Tereda Trades. I first got introduced to the financial markets while studying engineering at university — a few of us were messing around with early, forward-looking payment systems right as Bitcoin was starting to gain some traction. It wasn't an instant obsession. It started as an occasional dabble, and over time that dabble turned into a real interest.

Since then I've traded my way through a lot of different asset classes. I started in crypto, moved into gold and forex pairs, and now focus mainly on the US indices. Like most traders, I went through the phase of chasing signals, indicators, and recycled course content, hoping one of them held the answer — which is exactly why I understand how easy it is to lose money that way, and why I built Tereda Trades to teach something different.

A lot of what gets marketed in this industry leans on lifestyle — lavish spending, fast cars, the idea that trading is a shortcut to easy money. I wanted to build something that closes the gap between what gets presented online and what's actually achievable with real skill, discipline, and time in the market.

Why Tereda Trades Exists

As mentioned above, that phase of chasing signals and recycled content is exactly what most retail traders get stuck in — and it's rarely explained why price moves the way it does in the first place. Tereda Trades was built around a different premise: that price is driven by liquidity and institutional order flow, and that traders who learn to read that story — rather than react to candles — build an edge that survives beyond any single setup or market condition.

The mentorship exists to close the gap between watching charts and actually trading with a repeatable, risk-defined process. That means live sessions during the London and New York killzones, direct trade journal feedback, and a curriculum built around liquidity, market structure, and execution — not shortcuts.

Our Approach

Every part of the program is built around three pillars covered in depth in the Core Framework: reading liquidity, mapping market structure, and executing with defined risk. We don't sell signals or guarantee outcomes — trading carries real risk, and any mentor who tells you otherwise isn't being straight with you. What we do provide is a structured path, direct feedback on your own trades, and accountability most traders never get on their own.

If that sounds like what you're looking for, you can read more about how the program is structured on the FAQ page or apply directly below.
