Stock Market and Investment Analysis with Ucanly, Level 2 Intermediate, takes you from beginner to independent analyst. This is an educational program in financial analysis. Ucanly and its mentors are not registered investment advisors, this course is not investment advice, and nothing in it is a recommendation to buy or sell any security. All markets carry genuine risk of loss, and every project in this level uses simulated data, historical data, backtesting, and paper trading only, with no real money. Built for practitioners who have completed the Beginner level or have working knowledge of financial statements, basic ratios, fundamental analysis, and portfolio basics, this program goes deep into industry and competitive analysis, quality of earnings, and DCF and relative valuation. In your minor project in week six, you will produce a complete equity research report on a real company, with an industry and moat analysis, a full three statement understanding, a DCF and relative valuation, a target range, risks, and a defended investment recommendation. You will then build rule based trading strategies, learn Python for investment analysis, and backtest strategies honestly while guarding against overfitting and survivorship bias. You will graduate having built a full backtested strategy and managed simulated portfolio in your week ten major project, across Indian and global markets, with a written strategy, historical backtest and metrics, risk controls, live paper tracking, and a live review defended to Ucanly mentors.
