Shorten the journey.Skip the years of mistakes.
I built PrimeTrading to help traders avoid the mistakes I made for years — chasing noise, forcing trades, thinking there's a magic indicator out there. There isn't.
My real "why" is simple: freedom.
I trade so I can be present as my three boys grow up — so I can enjoy life with them, not watch it pass by while I'm stuck chasing someone else's schedule.
Every entry comes with the why.Here's one, unedited.
- 01Leadership first
"Leading theme & leading name..."
From the system: a big part of the edge comes from only trading the top liquid leaders. - 02Daily structure
"reclaim & backtest of the rising 21dma-structure"
From the system: reclaim & backtest — the structure higher low confirmation. - 03Weekly confluence
"incredible weekly structure PB & bounce... 10wma-structure first pullback"
From the system: the weekly 10wma-structure confluence, for added confirmation.
Don't copy my trades.Build your own process.
My goal has never been a recipe for replicating my trades. Mastery isn't built through imitation. It's built through observation, repetition, failure and reflection. The room is where we do that together.
Trading is personal. You have to build your own system, shaped by your strengths, weaknesses and risk tolerance. If I can shorten that journey for even a handful of people, it's worth it.
Alex DesjardinsFounder, PrimeTradingFinding an entry is only part of the job.Staying in long enough for it to matter is the rest.
Every trade starts as a swing. The ones that earn it become positions. The winners prove themselves over weeks and months, not minutes and hours.

Questions.
I'm a beginner. Is this for me?
Yes. PrimeTrading Academy – The Basics is a complete introduction for absolute beginners, and it's free. Start there, read the Prime Report, then join the room when you're ready.
I work full time. Can I keep up?
This is not a fast-paced, scalp-the-open system. Decisions are made on daily charts, and my focus time is the first hour and the final 30 minutes.
Do I just copy your trades?
No. Mastery in trading is not built through imitation. I share my executions with full context so you learn how I think about risk — then you build your own system.
How much do you risk per trade?
Between 0.25% and 0.5% of total capital, up to 1% on high-conviction setups.
Is this only for swing traders?
No. It's one process from a few days to multi-month moves. Runners stay on as long as the daily and weekly structures hold, and position trading is a growing part of how I trade.
Is the Prime Report really free?
Yes. No BS. No locked secrets.
Can I cancel?
Yes, anytime. It's billed monthly through LaunchPass, and you can cancel whenever you want. No contract, no questions.
