Learn to Read Market Seasons, Not Just Charts

Most investors chase trends. We teach you to anticipate them by understanding seasonal patterns that shape markets every year—patterns that repeat but few people notice.

OUR APPROACH

Financial Markets Have Seasons Too

Think about how predictable certain things are. Retail spikes during holidays. Energy consumption rises in winter. Agricultural commodities follow harvest schedules.

These aren't secrets—they're patterns. But most people don't connect them to their investment decisions. Our courses help you recognize these cycles and use them as part of your strategy. Not as guarantees, but as context that might improve your timing.

We started teaching this in 2019 after noticing how many beginners struggled with the noise of daily market movements. Seasonal patterns offer something steadier to focus on.

September 2025 Cohort Opens in June

Our next twelve-week program begins September 8, 2025. Enrolment opens June 15. Class sizes stay small—usually around 18 people—so we can actually answer questions and work through examples together.

What You'll Actually Learn

Week one covers foundational concepts: what seasonal patterns are, why they exist, and how they've played out historically. We look at real examples from energy, agriculture, and retail sectors.

By week six, you're analyzing data yourself—learning which patterns have held up over decades and which ones have weakened. We don't skip the messy parts where things don't work perfectly.

The final weeks focus on integration: how to combine seasonal awareness with other analysis methods, position sizing, and managing expectations when reality doesn't match the pattern.

How Seasonal Investing Actually Works

It's not complicated, but it does require attention to detail and historical context. Here's the basic framework we teach.

1

Identify Recurring Patterns

Start by looking at historical price data for sectors with obvious seasonal drivers—heating oil in winter, agricultural commodities around harvest. We teach you to spot patterns that have persisted for at least fifteen years.

2

Understand the Underlying Causes

Patterns without reasons are just noise. You need to know why energy demand increases in certain months or how weather affects crop yields. This helps you judge whether the pattern might continue.

3

Test Against Recent Data

Historical patterns can break down. We show you how to check if a seasonal tendency is still holding up in recent years or if market conditions have shifted enough to make it unreliable.

4

Apply With Realistic Expectations

Seasonal patterns don't guarantee anything. They might improve your odds slightly, or provide better entry timing. We emphasize risk management and modest position sizing throughout the course.

I took the autumn 2024 session after trying to learn seasonal investing from books and videos. What helped most was the real-time examples and having someone explain why certain patterns matter more than others. The instructor didn't promise miracles, which I appreciated. It's a tool, not a magic formula.

Who This Program Fits

People who already understand basic investing concepts but want a different perspective. You should know what stocks and ETFs are, have some experience with market orders, and be comfortable reading financial charts.

We don't cover beginner fundamentals. This course assumes you're past that stage and looking for specific strategies that might complement what you already do.

Most participants are self-directed investors who manage their own portfolios and want to explore seasonal patterns as one piece of their overall approach.
