Brandon Wendell, CMT combines Wall Street-level experience with real-world teaching that makes trading make sense.
“I was raised by a stockbroker and an English teacher. So I guess you could say—trading and teaching are in my DNA.”
Learn proven strategies for trading stocks, options, and futures—even if you're short on time, capital, or experience.
The Market Doesn’t Care About Your Dreams. But Brandon Does.
The average trader struggles for years—bouncing between free YouTube videos, outdated strategies, and confusing tools.
That’s not just frustrating... it's expensive.
Brandon Wendell knows what it’s like to come from humble beginnings. Raised by a single mom on a teacher’s salary, he served in the U.S. Navy before carving his own path to financial independence through trading.

About Brandon Wendell, CMT
From the Persian Gulf to Wall Street—And Now, the Trading Classroom
Brandon Wendell isn’t your typical trading coach. His journey started in a small town in Pennsylvania, where he was raised by a single mother—a public school teacher—and learned early on the value of education, discipline, and hard work.
After serving in the U.S. Navy during the Persian Gulf conflict in the early 1990s, Brandon followed in his father’s footsteps and became a retail stockbroker. But instead of staying in the front office, he pursued a deeper understanding of the market—moving into back-office operations and eventually rising to become a lead trader for a private hedge fund in La Jolla, California.
Brandon later transitioned into education and discovered his true passion: teaching others how to trade successfully. With a natural ability to explain complex ideas (thanks to his parents' blend of finance and teaching), he has now trained thousands of students worldwide—from complete beginners to seasoned professionals.

With a natural ability to explain complex ideas (thanks to his parents' blend of finance and teaching), he has now trained thousands of students worldwide—from complete beginners to seasoned professionals.
In 2008, he earned the prestigious Chartered Market Technician (CMT) designation—an advanced certification held by fewer than 2,500 people globally. He has since become a sought-after expert for CNBC, Bloomberg, Fox Business, and more.
Today, Brandon lives on a farm in Virginia with his wife and two French bulldogs, teaching traders how to succeed in the markets with structure, clarity, and confidence.
“I don’t just teach strategies. I teach people how to think like a professional trader—no matter their background.”
Brandon teaches repeatable, risk-managed strategies that work in any market—designed for everyday people, not financial elites.

Available research data suggests that most traders are NOT profitable.
In a research paper published in 2014 titled “Do Day Traders Rationally Learn About Their Ability?”, professors from the University of California studied 3.7 billion trades from the Taiwan Stock Exchange between 1992-2006 and found that only 9.81% of day trading volume was generated by predictably profitable traders and that these predictably profitable traders constitute less than 3% of all day traders on an average day.
In a 2005 article published in the Journal of Applied Finance titled “The Profitability of Active Stock Traders” professors at the University of Oxford and the University College Dublin found that out of 1,146 brokerage accounts day trading the U.S. markets between March 8, 2000 and June 13, 2000, only 50% were profitable with an average net profit of $16,619.
In a 2003 article published in the Financial Analysts Journal titled “The Profitability of Day Traders”, professors at the University of Texas found that out of 334 brokerage accounts day trading the U.S. markets between February 1998 and October 1999, only 35% were profitable and only 14% generated profits in excess of $10,000.
The range of results in these three studies exemplify the challenge of determining a definitive success rate for day traders. At a minimum, these studies indicate at least 50% of aspiring day traders will not be profitable. This reiterates that consistently making money trading stocks is not easy. Day Trading is a high risk activity and can result in the loss of your entire investment. Any trade or investment is at your own risk.
