Northern Algo Foundational Course
A structured starting point for new small-cap traders
The Foundational Course is a structured introduction to small-cap trading for people who are new to the markets and want to build the right habits from the start.
It covers chart reading, market behavior, stock selection, risk management, and trade planning, so you are not learning strategy on top of missing fundamentals.

Foundational Course Overview
New traders usually skip the fundamentals because strategy feels more interesting. That shortcut shows up later as inconsistent execution with no way to diagnose it.
This course builds in order: how the market behaves, how to read a chart, how to find candidates, and how to size and plan a trade before the money is at risk.
