Most trading education is built on strategies nobody has tested properly. We think that’s backwards. So we built a research lab, and we only teach what holds up.

The founder
Ezekiel’s story
Years before the lossEzekiel Chew · archive
Ezekiel Chew started trading at sixteen. Early on he felt invincible, scaled up hard on a thesis he was sure of, and lost over a million dollars on one trade.
For six months he didn’t trade. His wedding was on hold. His wife told him:
“You did it before. You can do it again. I believe in you.”
He came back with one question: how do you make sure one trade can never undo years of work? The answer became the Road to Millions Formula. Later, the same habit of checking the evidence became the AFM Research Lab.
Ezekiel’s own account. Not typical. Not a promise.

The method
The AFM Research Lab
Every strategy is tested on years of data it has never seen, with real trading costs, and shuffled thousands of times to see how bad it could realistically get. We publish every result, including the failures, on our Research Lab page.

Research Lab
Backed by 10 years of data
The Lab puts popular strategies, and our own, through years of market data before anything reaches a lesson.

Fit
Who we’re for, and who we’re not
