One of the most credible trading education offerings at this price point. A verified active trader, a structured methodology, and no recurring fees (this is what good trading education looks like!)

The instructor

Cory Mitchell has been trading professionally since 2005, starting at a proprietary firm with a simple brief: trade the firm’s capital and make money, or lose the job. No salary, no second chances. He was profitable within his first year — a rare outcome in an industry where fewer than 5% of traders succeed long-term. Mitchel later traded currencies for Fortune 500 companies before returning to trade independently, which is what he still does today.

Cory holds the CMT designation (Chartered Market Technician), earned in 2009, and has written for some of the most widely-read financial publications online. His background is verifiable and his trading is ongoing. In a space crowded with people who stopped trading to sell courses, that distinction matters enormously.

What you get

The flagship Complete Method Stock Swing Trading Course covers seven strategies for identifying stocks before significant moves, delivered through structured video content alongside a 156-page PDF and a strategy cheat sheet. The Forex Swing Trading Course mirrors that structure for currency traders, covering three core strategies across multiple timeframes with a fourth bonus strategy included.

NOTE: A lower-cost Forex Introduction Course at $39 provides an accessible entry point for newer traders.

The methodology is built on price action and technical analysis — no proprietary indicators, no signals to follow blindly. Risk management and psychology are woven throughout rather than treated as an afterthought. The self-paced format means you work through it on your own schedule, with five years of access after purchase. The core content can realistically be covered in a weekend, with practice and refinement the ongoing work beyond that.

Cost and value

At $269 for the main course, TradeThatSwing is priced well below most comparable programmes, many of which charge two to three times as much for similar depth of content and a less credible instructor behind it. There are no subscription fees, no upsells, and no ongoing charges once you’ve purchased.

Mitchell also publishes a large volume of free content on the site — annotated charts, strategy articles, and market analysis — which gives prospective students a genuine sense of the teaching style before spending anything. It’s a confident move that reflects well on the quality of what’s behind the paywall.

Support and community

Each course includes a comments section beneath the videos where students can ask questions directly, and Mitchell engages with these personally. He also shares live trade screenshots in a Facebook group, providing ongoing real-world application of the methodology. One-to-one coaching is available separately for traders who want direct feedback on their own performance.

It’s worth being clear that this isn’t a live trade room or a high-touch community platform — if daily interaction and group accountability are important to you, that’s worth factoring in. What it does offer is direct access to the instructor, which at this price point is more than most courses provide.

Things to know before buying

Refunds are not offered, so it’s worth using the free content on the site to confirm the teaching style suits you before committing. The courses cover stocks and forex — futures and crypto traders will need to look elsewhere. And like any trading course, the methodology requires practice and screen time to apply consistently; this is a framework, not a shortcut.
