Good day. I am Xhanti Lumkwana from Kei Mouth, Eastern Cape, South Africa. I started my Forex trading journey at CTFX School of Trading in 2026. With respect to the mentors - thank you for the motivation, organisation and discipline. What stood out for me was how structured the classes are, from risk management to psychology to real market analysis. As a beginner from a small town, I felt welcomed and supported . No false promises, just proper education and guidance. For new students joining: stay consistent, follow the system and trust the process. Proud to be part of CTFX family. Highly recommended for anyone serious about learning forex the right way

CTFX Courses are really helpful, and coach Ekraam is a really good teacher. I knew nothing about forex before taking his courses, and after his teachings I felt so much more empowered. He really simplifies complicated concepts so you can understand and practice them yourself. I would highly recommend CTFX School of Trading to anyone who wants to be confident with forex trading.

I was introduced to CTFX by a friend who had completed the course and was seeing excellent results. The course itself is comprehensive and explained in a very practical, easy-to-understand way. Ekraam is extremely accommodating and always willing to help where he can. I’ve had two one-on-one sessions with him, which really helped solidify what I learned in the course. Three months into practicing, I’m now starting to see consistently good results. I highly recommend the CTFX course to anyone serious about getting into trading.

I was so overwhelmed before and confused by all the information on trading out there. But the CTFX course breaks everything down into simple, easy to understand and well structured lessons. And the private and group sessions are like cherries on the cake. Coach Ekraam is also super helpful and quick to respond to any questions or queries I’ve had. Definitely recommend CTFX to anyone who wants to take trading seriously. Thanks for all the help coach!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ **Outstanding Learning Experience with CTFX School Of Trading** Before discovering CTFX Trading, I had absolutely no prior knowledge or experience in trading. However, the structured and insightful video lessons provided by CTFX made even the most complex trading concepts easy to understand. The content is not only clear and beginner-friendly, but also highly practical. Through consistent practice using the demo platform, I’ve been able to apply what I’ve learned effectively and have seen significant progress — including impressive results in demo trading. Thanks to CTFX, I now feel confident in my understanding of the markets and am preparing to transition from demo to real-money trading very soon. I highly recommend CTFX to anyone who is serious about learning trading from the ground up. **Jose Antonio**

After struggling with my trading I was lost and didn't know where to go for expert help without being scammed or paying a fortune. I googled forex courses that was in the Cape Town area in case I needed to attend classes and then I saw them. I took a chance and joined CTFX Trading Academy! Immediately I noticed that these are the pros that I've been needing in my life. The response from the team is lightning fast and the first 20 video's (with some bonus content!) was very well done and from the video's I could tell these people have been doing this for years and years. The level of knowledge I gained from just the video's alone is second to none and gives a good understanding how to trade in a simplistic way that makes it so so easy. Ever since I joined, I keep telling myself "I should've joined years ago." I really do recommend CTFX to anyone who will listen and want to level up their trading and be profitable. They are worlds class!

Step 1: Research and select a renowned FSCA Licenced and approved Forex Trading Broker.

Step 2: Once you have found a broker you will have to follow the steps to set up your Forex Trading account

Step 3: Once you have followed the verification process (This usually involves emailing your chosen broker proof of your identity & proof of bank account)

Step 4: Fund your Forex Trading account, you will be sent an email with login details to your backoffice account to the Forex Broker, here you are able to link up your bank account to the broker platform and fund your account using either your credit or debit card.

Step 5: Time to find some trading opportunities:  Assuming you’ve done and completed a forex trading course and gone through the coaching process, you will then know how to find and execute some profitable trades.

Step 6: Deciding on position size for your trade: It’s important to take trading position sizes based on a percentage of your initial capital deposit or trading investment, thus ensuring you do not over leverage your trading sizes leading to potential losses should your trade go against you.

Step 7: Monitor and manage your trading positions: Once you are in a trade, it is equally important to be able to manage your trade accordingly, these include placing stop losses and potential profit targets, all of these are covered in the CTFX Forex Trading Course and Classes.

Step 8: Withdrawing Trading profits: Once you have reached your trading targets either for the day or for the week, you will then want to withdraw your profits, this is achieved by following the same process you followed to deposit from your bank account, into your trading account.

Forex trading, also known as foreign exchange trading or currency trading, is the buying and selling of currencies on the foreign exchange market with the aim of making a profit. The foreign exchange market is the largest financial market in the world, with trillions of dollars traded daily.

This involves buying one currency while simultaneously selling another. The objective is to profit from the changes in the exchange rates between the two currencies. For example, if you believe that the value of the euro will rise against the US dollar, you would buy euros and sell US dollars. If your prediction is correct and the euro does rise in value, you can sell the euros back for a profit.

Trading is typically done through a broker, who provides a platform for traders to buy and sell currencies called the MT4 platform. The market operates 24 hours a day, five days a week, allowing traders to participate from anywhere in the world at any time. While forex trading can be highly profitable, it is also associated with risks and requires a good understanding of the market and its dynamics, this is where CTFX School Of Trading – Forex Classes & Coaching Programme – Cape Town, South Africa comes in, to simplify the trading process for you

1. Firstly do some research on your own about how the Forex markets work. You can start with the FREE INTRO LESSON on this page, which will give you a quick overview and understanding with some real time eg samples of entering a trade and taking profits.

2. Learn how the forex market by doing a trading course with coaching programme, from an experienced trader who’s been active in the markets for 10 years. With proven methods and legitimate references like CTFX School Of Trading – Forex Course & Classes – Cape Town, South Africa.

3. Once you’ve gone through a reputable trading course and undergone coaching sessions with your CTFX coach, using a demo trading account, then you are half way to opening a Live trading account.

4. Work with your coach towards building a reliable trading plan which is flexible within your risk capital and market conditions.

5. Choose your forex trading broker account to trade from and deposit some funds to begin your journey.

6. Take your trading positions confidently knowing that you have the education and training to successfully execute trades and make money in the markets.

It will typically take on average 3 to 6 months for someone to learn to trade forex.

But this usually depends on the time and schedule one has to put in to practise. As with any valuable skill, mastery takes time but well worth the effort in the long run.

The technical side can be learned within a few weeks, but the risk management and psychology will take around 3-6 months to grasp the concepts being taught. The majority of traders give up before ever learning to consistently trade the markets.

Everyone’s risk profile is different when it comes to profits in the market. With a decent win rate and risk/reward ratio, a dedicated forex day trader with a good strategy, can make between R5,000 and R15,000 per month. Remember, you don’t need much capital to get started. R1,000 to R5,000 is usually enough to see solid gains of at least R10,000 to R20,000 pm. Once again, this is based on your experience and understanding of the markets

Usually, short-term traders with limited funds and higher risk appetite prefer forex trading. But for those who are new to trading and are looking for more stable returns over a higher duration of time, stock market may be a better option.

The markets are open 24-hours a day, from Monday to Friday, but this does not mean you should trade all day, there are various factors that influence movements in the market, such as time of day to trade, fundamental news releases etc., which you will learn about in the CTFX Forex Trading Course & Coaching Programme.

You are now also able to trade on weekends too. But again, you will have to know and understand what you are doing in order to reap the benefits of this privilege.

If you are new to trading, you might well wonder if it’s really possible to make a living from currency trading. Given that the majority of small traders do not. The short answer is YES! Provided you have the correct trading guidance from the start , then It’s definitely possible to make a consistent income from Forex Trading.

There are many resources online about Forex Trading on the internet, that will give a newbie Trader, a fair amount of knowledge to trading the forex market and how to approach trading, although, one website in particular will give you a good starting point in your trading journey, but keep in mind that there is a big difference in reading materials and learning from an experienced trader who has already been through the challenges of learning the skill and therefore able to show you what to look for and what to avoid.

The CTFX Course & Coaching Programme will be your best step for a faster and easier learning experience.

The question of whether forex trading robots are profitable depends on various factors. But the bottom line is that they are simply not consistent.

Forex trading robots can yield some decent profits in a trending market, which is mostly obvious market moves, if you know how to read a forex trading chart and you have the skillset, then your knowledge will produce higher profit returns over a trading robot, for example, you might make some profits on a good upward trending day on the charts, but it could just take one fundamental move or news release in the opposite direction which could potentially wipe out your entire profits for the day.

Learning the skill of trading and being able to predict potential market moves with at least 60-70% accuracy, can prevent you from major losses, keeping you in control of your trading investment, therefore, with that knowledge and future experience gained, you will be able see higher profit returns with confidence and consistency.

The CTFX Forex Trading Course in Cape Town, covers all the topics and aspects of what you need to know on how to spot profitable moves daily in the market, the coaching provided will reinforce further habits toward consistent trading profits.

Most brokers require more than R100 to open a live account. They set a minimum deposit of around R1,000. Trading with very little makes it hard to cover fees and manage risks. In our course, you’ll learn how to build your account step by step and use a demo account until you’re ready to trade real money safely.

First, learn the basics: how currency pairs work and what moves their prices. Next, open a demo account with a regulated broker to practice without real money. Then choose a strategy, set clear goals, and manage your risk on every trade. Our courses in Cape Town cover each step with hands-on coaching and real examples so you gain confidence before you trade live.

Yes. Trading forex is legal in South Africa when you work with a broker licensed by the Financial Sector Conduct Authority (FSCA). The FSCA sets rules to protect your funds and ensure fair trading. We guide you through how to choose an FSCA-regulated broker and explain the legal and tax requirements so you trade on the right side of the law.

Forex traders profit from changes in exchange rates between two currencies. You buy one currency and sell another when you expect its value to rise. If the rate moves in your favour, you close the trade and keep the difference. Our course shows you how to read charts, spot trends, and calculate position size so you can identify and capture profitable moves.
