Learn to trade futures around your job,
not instead of it.
For people with a job, a family and a full calendar who've done the YouTube, the courses and the indicators and still aren't consistent. Over 6 months, Jason teaches you the process he trades every day around a full-time orchestra job: prep the night before, trade the window you have, and stop forcing trades just because you finally made it to the charts.

You're not undisciplined. You're trading when you're free instead of when the market is ready.
Jason made the same mistake for years: he'd get to the charts after a rehearsal, feel like he'd earned a trade, and force one. The market doesn't reward your availability. It rewards preparation. So he built his trading around that, and it's what he teaches.
Prep the night before
Levels marked, scenarios written, so when your window opens you're executing a plan, not improvising. This is the nightly Playbook you'll get from Jason, and the habit you'll build yourself.
Trade the window you have
Futures trade 23 hours a day. Early mornings, after work, overnight. You learn which markets move in your hours and how to trade them, including entries you can leave on overnight.
Be fine missing trades
The market isn't going to zero. There's always another setup. Letting trades go is the discipline that separates people who last from people who blow up.
If you've traded for a while, there's a fourth step: cutting the clutter. Every experienced student arrives with Fibonacci levels, six setups and stacked indicators. Jason strips it back to the levels that matter.
What you get
Everything in the program exists for one reason: to make you independent of Jason by the time it ends.
1:1 coaching calls with Jason
Private Zoom sessions built around your trades, your charts and your schedule. You bring what's not working. Jason shows you what he sees and what to do about it.
The full FTR curriculum
From setting up NinjaTrader to reading market structure to Jason's five named trade entries. You master one entry before the next one unlocks, so nothing gets skipped.
The Daily Futures Playbook
A 15–20 minute video each evening with the levels Jason is watching, a directional bias for each market, and his marked-up charts. The same prep he trades from the next morning.

Questions don't wait for your next call. Send Jason a voice note or a chart from the desk and get an answer within 24 hours, usually sooner.

Homework & trade reviews
You send your chart work and your trades. Jason marks them up and tells you exactly where the entry, the stop or the read was off, before it becomes a habit.
Community of traders
Learn alongside people running the same process. Jason posts daily videos, charts and trades inside, so you're never guessing what to study next.
My job is to make you independent of me.
I'm a professional orchestral percussionist. I spent 14 years in the US Navy Band, and today I perform with the National Symphony Orchestra in Washington, DC. A strange resume for a trading coach. It's actually the whole point.
Early on I did what everyone with a job does: squeezed trading into whatever gap the day left me, then forced trades because I was finally in front of the charts. I lost money that way. The fix wasn't a new indicator. It was prepping every night as if I'd be trading the next day, so my schedule stopped deciding my trades.
Walking on stage and taking a live trade have the same requirement: a process you've practiced so thoroughly you can trust it under pressure. That's how I learned to trade, and it's how I teach. Deliberate practice, honest feedback, and a repeatable process, the same way every professional skill is built.
I trade futures every day: S&P (ES), gold, oil and others on NinjaTrader. The charts, levels and nightly analysis you get from me are the ones I actually use.
What happened when they committed to the process
"I fell in the trap of a lot of indicators, a lot of setups, a lot of streamers. Jason's approach simplified the clutter. Right now the time on screen is much lower, and I just trust the A-plus setup and the strategy I'm working with."

"Jason's practical, systematic approach fosters a sense of calm even in unpredictable markets. His dispassionate description of price action at specific levels has given me confidence in my entries, as well as a sense of ownership of the charts."
"I was totally overwhelmed by the amount of information and didn't know where to start. Seeing how Jason approaches the charts each day and understanding what he is looking at is the most helpful to me. He's honest and real."

Questions before you apply
Do I need trading experience?
No. The curriculum starts with platform and chart setup and builds step by step. Jason coaches complete beginners and experienced traders. For experienced traders, the work is usually cutting complexity, not adding more.
How long until I'm trading real money?
It depends on your effort. Most students go live in 4 to 6 months. Jason went from zero to a live account in 4. You practice in simulation first and move to live trading once your process holds up.
Can't I just learn this on YouTube?
You can learn plenty of information on YouTube. What you can't get there is someone watching your trades, catching your mistakes before they become habits, and giving you one clear process instead of a hundred conflicting ones.
I have a full-time job and a family. Can I still do this?
Yes. Jason plays full-time in the National Symphony Orchestra and has two kids. Futures trade almost 23 hours a day, and you'll learn to prep the night before and trade around your schedule. Group calls are recorded.
What happens on the call?
You and Jason talk through where you are, where you want to be, and whether coaching is the right fit. If it is, he'll walk you through the program and the investment. If it isn't, he'll point you toward what to do instead. Either way, you leave with a clearer path than you arrived with.
Do you guarantee results?
No, and be wary of anyone who does. What Jason guarantees is that you'll have every tool you need to trade well: the curriculum, the coaching, and honest feedback on your trades. Applying it is up to you.
