Getting started
7 answersWhat Nexural is and where to begin.
Nexural is a trading community. We trade in public and post every result, win or lose. We mainly day trade US stocks and futures, and we also swing trade and invest for the long term.
The community is free: the Discord, our TradingView indicators, free lessons, the Academy Foundations course, and the public results page. Academy and Pro are paid plans. Automation is coming soon.
Join the free Discord and read the daily brief. Then take the free Academy Foundations course. Look at /proof any time to see how our trade ideas have done.
Yes. The free Foundations course assumes you know nothing about trading yet. The Discord has a beginner questions channel where no question is a dumb one.
Not for the Discord, which only needs a free Discord account. To take the free Foundations course, create a free Nexural account and confirm your email.
The handbook is our free guide to how the community and our trading work. If you are new, it is the best place to read first.
The Asymmetric Investor is a free trading book written by Jason Teixeira (known in the community as Sage). You can read it online at no cost.
The easiest first step is free.
Join the free DiscordWhat we trade & how
7 answersMarkets, timing, and how a trade is set up.
Mostly US stocks and futures, as day trades. We also take swing trades that last days to weeks, and we invest for the long term. Big-money options bets are something we watch for context, not the main thing we trade.
We post our trades as we take them, mostly during US market hours. On market days the Discord also gets a brief before the open, a midday check-in, and a recap after the close.
Options are not our main focus. We track big-money options bets because they show where large players are putting money, and we use that as context for stock and futures trades.
Not as a main focus. Our trading bots are testing crypto and stocks on paper right now, with no real money.
Yes. Every trade we share shows why we took it, the entry price, and the stop, which is the price where we get out if we are wrong. Jason doesn't take a trade without one.
Yes, if you want to trade. You open and fund your own account with a broker you choose, and you place your own orders. Nexural is not a broker and never holds your money.
Only to use our indicators, which run on TradingView. Everything else, like the Discord and the Academy, works without it.

Yes. The daily lesson channel posts two short lessons a day, at 8:00 AM and 6:00 PM.
Yes. Post a trade in the trade reviews channel and the community will give you feedback. There is also a channel for sharing wins and lessons, because both help you get better.

6 answersWhat Pro members get, and what they don't.

Yes. Pro includes alerts on our trades so you don't miss one.

6 answersLearning to trade, one lesson at a time.
The Academy is the learning side of Nexural. It has courses with narrated lessons, practice labs you run in your browser, and quizzes. It costs $25/month, and the Foundations course is free.
The Foundations course is free. Start free: make an account and confirm your email.
No. Foundations starts from zero. If you already trade, you can skip ahead.

Visit the AcademyAutomation & bots
7 answersTrading bots, tested on paper before any real money.
Automation is our set of trading bots: programs that follow fixed rules and place trades on their own. Right now they trade stocks and crypto on paper only, which means practice money and no real money.
Only after the paper results prove out. There is no date, because it depends on the results. When it does move to real money, it will be a separate charge.
We publish the paper results every month, good or bad.
Pro includes the paper test for free while it runs. Paid plans are paused right now, so join the waitlist to be first in.
Not during paper testing, because it is included in Pro. Real-money Automation will be a separate charge, and only after testing proves out.
Not yet. Today the bots test stocks and crypto. Options analysis and futures are coming next.
No. Today the bots only trade on paper, and nothing connects to your broker account.

Join the waitlistResults & proof
7 answersWhat our numbers mean, and what they don't.
The /proof page scores every trade idea our system posted against real market prices, wins and losses left in. Those are hypothetical results, not trades someone actually placed, and the page says so. Sage's own account results are shown separately on the About page, labeled as a snapshot of his personal account.
It means we measured what each trade idea would have made or lost at real market prices, but no real order was placed. Real trading can turn out differently because of fees, fill prices, and timing.
Jason trades his own account. A snapshot of his personal account results is on the About page, clearly labeled. It is separate from the /proof numbers, which score posted trade ideas.
No. Every trade idea stays on the record, wins and losses. The totals are counted over the whole history, not a hand-picked stretch.
The page refreshes from our database about every 5 minutes.
No. They come from free Discord members. Paid plans are not open yet, so those quotes are not reviews of a paid plan.
No. Past results do not promise future results, and nobody can promise you will make money trading.
Check the record yourself.

5 answersThe plain rules, stated up front.
No. Everything we share is for education and shows what we do with our own trading. Nothing on Nexural is financial advice, and you make your own decisions.
No. Nexural is not a broker and not an investment adviser. We don't hold your money, place orders for you, or give personal investment advice.
No. All sales are final and there are no refunds. We say so before you pay.
Yes. Trading is risky and you can lose money. Only trade money you can afford to lose.
No. Nobody can guarantee trading results, and we don't.
Read the full wording.

5 answersWho runs Nexural.
Jason Teixeira (known in the community as Sage) is the founder of Nexural. He mainly day trades US stocks and futures, and also swing trades and invests for the long term.
Before Nexural he worked at The Home Depot from 2012 to 2021, moving from software tester to automation engineer to cloud engineer. He holds a computer science degree from Full Sail and a finance degree from Kean.
He was frustrated by gurus posting hand-picked winning screenshots on one side and dense academic finance on the other. He built Nexural to fix that for himself, and then friends asked for access.
No. Jason runs it himself through his company, Sage Ideas LLC.
No. He shows what he does and why, but he doesn't give personal financial advice. In his words: never hand your judgment to a signal, an indicator, a model, or him.

22 termsThe terms you'll see on the site and in the Discord. No trading background needed.
- Day trade
- A trade that is opened and closed on the same day, so nothing is held overnight.
- Swing trade
- A trade held for a few days to a few weeks, to catch one bigger move.
- Long-term investing
- Buying something to hold for months or years, not days.
- Entry
- The price where a trade is started.
- Stop
- The price where you get out if the trade goes against you. It caps how much you can lose on that trade, as long as the price doesn't jump past it.
- Target
- The price where you plan to take your profit.
- Exit
- The price where a trade is closed, whether it hit the stop, the target, or something in between.
- Win rate
- The share of closed trades that made money. A 40% win rate means 4 out of 10 trades were winners.
- Average win vs. average loss
- How much the typical winning trade made compared with how much the typical losing trade lost. You can win less than half the time and still come out ahead if your wins are bigger than your losses.
- Drawdown
- How far an account falls from its highest point before it recovers. It shows how rough the bad stretches get.
- Stocks
- Small pieces of ownership in a company that you can buy and sell.
- Futures
- Contracts that rise and fall with a market, like the S&P 500 or oil. A small move in price can mean a big gain or loss, so they carry extra risk.
- Leveraged ETF
- A fund that tries to move two or three times as much as the market it follows in a single day. Gains and losses both get bigger.
- Options
- Contracts that give the right, but not the duty, to buy or sell a stock at a set price before a set date. They can lose all their value quickly.
- Big-money options bets
- Very large options trades placed by big players. We watch them as a clue to where large money is leaning, not as trades to copy.
- Paper trading
- Trading with pretend money at real market prices, to test an idea without risking real money.
- Trading bot
- A program that follows fixed rules and places trades on its own. Ours only trade on paper today.
- Hypothetical result
- What a trade idea would have made or lost at real market prices, even though no real order was placed.
- Alert
- A message that tells you a trade was just taken or something needs your attention.
- Premarket
- The hours before the US stock market opens at 9:30 AM Eastern, when trading is thinner.
- Broker
- The company that holds your trading account and places your orders. Nexural is not a broker.
- Position size
- How much money you put into one trade. Smaller size means a smaller loss if the stop is hit.
Not financial advice; not a broker. Trading is risky. All sales are final; there are no refunds. Can't find your question? Ask us.
