The SigniBull Academy

24 lessons on what the market actually does — written by us, checked against primary sources, and free.

Every lesson has the same four parts: what it is, how to read it, what it does not tell you, and where to see it in the app. The third one is the reason this is worth reading.

Where this comes from

Written here, informed by primary sources — S&P Dow Jones Indices' SPIVA scorecards, the SEC's investor education material, FINRA, and the original papers that defined the indicators (Wilder on RSI and ATR in 1978, Bollinger, Appel on MACD). Formulas are facts and are not anyone's property; the wording is ours. Nothing is copied from another academy.

Educational material. Nothing here is investment advice, and nothing here is a recommendation to buy or sell anything. SigniBull is a paper-trading platform — no real money moves.
