About the company
An independent education company. Based in Milan since 2017.
We teach how the foreign exchange market works. Nothing more, nothing less. No signals, no trade calls, no managed accounts, no performance fees — only structured education, written research, and coaching delivered by people who have worked inside markets.
Our story
Built quietly, on classroom principles.
FX Services Market was founded in 2017 by Matteo Bianchi after twelve years inside Milan-based proprietary desks and analyst teams. The original idea was simple: write the textbook on the FX market that he wished had existed when he started — written in plain English, free of hype, and structured the way a real curriculum is structured.
The first cohort of the Foundations course ran in 2018 with twenty-two students. Word-of-mouth carried the company through the early years. We did not advertise on social media, we did not run a YouTube channel, and we did not publish trade ideas. We still don't.
Today the team is six people working out of an office a short walk from the Duomo. We run six structured programmes, write a weekly briefing, and quietly maintain a small library of free educational resources. The principles have not changed.

What we stand by
Four values, in writing.
These are not marketing lines. They are the working rules the team comes back to whenever there is a decision to make about what we will, and will not, offer our students.
Clarity over hype
We write in plain English. We name the limits of every method we teach. We do not use the language of certainty in a field defined by uncertainty.
Education, never advice
We are educators. We do not recommend trades, manage money, or accept performance-based fees. The line is clear and we hold it.
Long horizons
Most useful learning in markets happens over months and years, not days. Our pacing, our pricing and our product set all reflect that.
Honesty about risk
Trading carries risk of loss. We say it clearly, we say it often, and we build every course around managing it.
The people
A small team of educators.
Six people, all based in or near Milan. Mixed backgrounds — proprietary trading, sell-side analysis, quantitative risk, programme design — united by a preference for clear writing and patient explanation.
