About Us :-

If you’ve already got the basics of trading down but feel stuck when it comes to actually reading a chart with confidence, this course by Brian Shannon is built for that exact gap. Brian isn’t a typical online “guru” — he’s been trading for 35 years, holds Series 7, 24, and 63 licenses along with the CMT (Chartered Market Technician) designation, and he’s the developer of Anchored VWAP (AVWAP), a technique now built into nearly a dozen mainstream charting platforms. He also trades his own capital daily, which he’s upfront about distinguishing from educators who teach strategies they don’t actually use themselves.

The Advanced Stock Trading Course is his flagship program, focused on swing trading strategies designed to help you build both precision and confidence when reading price, volume, and time on a chart.

What’s Covered Inside

The course runs over 9 hours of recorded video, and it digs into the real mechanics of how markets move rather than just surface-level chart patterns:

• Why most traders fail — an honest breakdown of what actually separates consistent traders from everyone else
• Price, Volume, and Time — how these three elements interact and what they reveal for building a trading plan
• Candlestick chart construction — how to interpret them properly, including where they fall short
• The four stages of a stock’s cycle — Accumulation, Markup, Distribution, and Decline, and how to use that context to decide when to anticipate, participate, exit, or avoid a position
• Support and resistance — understanding how the constant push and pull of supply and demand creates the levels you plan trades around
• Order execution efficiency — how small savings on entries add up significantly for active traders over time
• Exit strategies — starting with proper stop placement, plus six additional exit strategies to help protect and maximize gains
• Trading around news and gaps — why reacting to price action matters more than the news headline itself, and how to approach gap trading

What You Get With Enrollment

Along with the full 9+ hours of video (yours to keep and rewatch anytime), students get one month of free Premium Membership to apply what they’ve learned using Alphatrends’ live services, discounted pricing on the yearly Premium subscription, and a 30-minute one-on-one webinar directly with Brian Shannon to get your specific questions answered.

Why This Course Stands Out

What separates this from a lot of trading courses is that it’s not a signal service — Brian is explicit that this is about teaching you to trade independently, not handing you picks to copy. The course leans heavily into his AVWAP methodology, which isn’t some proprietary gimmick locked inside his platform — it’s a genuinely recognized technical analysis tool that’s been adopted industry-wide, which adds real credibility to what he’s teaching.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1. Do I need trading experience before taking the Advanced Stock Trading Course?

It’s designed as a step up from the basics, so some foundational market knowledge helps. In fact, if you’ve already taken Alphatrends’ Introduction to Stock Trading Course, that $99 cost can even be applied toward the Advanced Course, making it a natural next step rather than a separate starting point.

Q2. What makes Brian Shannon’s approach different from other stock trading educators?

Brian trades his own money every single day and is the actual developer of Anchored VWAP, a tool that’s since been built into multiple major charting platforms industry-wide — so you’re learning a technique with real, independently recognized credibility rather than a strategy invented purely to sell a course.

Q3. Is this course a one-time purchase, or does it require an ongoing subscription?

The Advanced Stock Trading Course itself is a one-time purchase, giving you lifetime access to the 9+ hours of content. It’s separate from Alphatrends’ ongoing Premium Membership, though the course does include a free month of Premium access so you can apply what you’ve learned in real time.

Q4. Does the course focus on day trading, swing trading, or both?

It’s centered specifically on swing trading strategies, teaching you to identify and manage trades that unfold over several days using price action, volume, and Brian’s AVWAP methodology, rather than ultra-short intraday scalping.

Q5. Are there refunds if the course isn’t the right fit for me?

No — Alphatrends is explicit that there are no trials or refunds on this course, so it’s worth reviewing the course outline and sample material closely, or starting with the Introduction course, before committing to the Advanced program.
