Getting Started with TWM

Courses

This is the official entry point into the TWM ecosystem.

TWM Essentials 100 is built to guide you through the platform from the very first installation step to placing your first controlled trades in a safe learning environment. It is the foundation that every TWM user must pass through before moving into advanced tools, automation, and live execution.

In this course, you will learn how the TWM Platform is structured internally — how it connects to real market data, how instruments are managed, how charts are built, how indicators and automated logic are applied, and how orders, positions, and performance are handled inside the system. You will understand not just what buttons to press, but why the platform behaves the way it does.

Special attention is given to the installation and first-launch experience, including common browser and operating system warnings that appear when downloading and running professional trading software. You will clearly understand what these messages mean, why they appear, and how to safely proceed without confusion or unnecessary concern.

You will explore public market data connections that allow you to follow real markets without using private API keys, making this course fully accessible even before you activate live trading. Regional exchange availability, connection behavior, and data initialization delays are all explained in detail so you know exactly what to expect from your environment.

This course also introduces you to the full workflow of working with instruments, creating and managing custom instrument lists, building charts, adding indicators, attaching automation logic, and operating inside a local paper trading environment. You will learn how simulated positions are created, how orders behave, how performance is tracked, and how risk and execution are controlled inside the terminal.

TWM Essentials 100 is not a shortcut, and it is not a marketing walkthrough. It is the technical and operational baseline that everything else in the TWM ecosystem is built upon. Every advanced course that follows assumes that you fully understand the platform concepts presented here.

By the time you complete this course, you will be fully oriented inside the TWM Platform — confident in how the system works, how data flows through it, how trades are executed and monitored, and how to safely prepare for live execution when you are ready.
