Built on Experience, Driven by Results

We've spent years watching patterns in markets that others miss

mirevalentis started in 2019 when three analysts got tired of seeing investors follow outdated advice. We'd been working at different firms across Sydney and kept noticing the same thing—people were being told to invest based on methods that worked decades ago but didn't fit today's reality. So we decided to do something about it.

Why We Started This

Back in 2018, I was working with a client who'd followed all the traditional advice. Diversified portfolio, index funds, the whole playbook. But when markets shifted that year, nothing worked the way it was supposed to.

That's when we realized the problem wasn't the client—it was the approach. Financial education had become too standardized, too removed from what actually happens when your money's on the line.

We wanted to create something different. A place where people could learn investment strategies based on current market conditions, not textbook theories from 1990.

What Guides Our Work

Honest Assessment

We'll tell you when a strategy doesn't fit your situation. There's no point teaching something that won't work for your specific circumstances—and we've seen too many people waste time on approaches that never had a chance.

Current Thinking

Markets change. What worked in 2015 might not work in 2025. We update our teaching based on what's happening now, not what happened in past decades. Our research team reviews strategies quarterly.

Real Examples

Every case study we teach comes from actual market situations. We don't do hypotheticals or best-case scenarios. You'll see what worked, what didn't, and why—complete with the messy parts most courses skip.

How We Build Learning Programs

Our curriculum isn't built around theories. It's built around the questions investors actually ask when they're trying to make decisions with their own capital.

1

Market Analysis Foundation

You start by learning how to read what's actually happening in markets—not predicting, just observing patterns and understanding what different signals mean in context.

2

Risk Assessment Skills

Most courses skip this or treat it as boring. We think it's the most important part. You'll learn to evaluate what you're risking before you think about what you might gain.

3

Strategy Development

Once you understand markets and risk, you build strategies that fit your goals. Not generic portfolios—actual approaches tailored to what you're trying to achieve and your timeline.

4

Real Market Application

Theory only gets you so far. You'll work through case studies based on real market conditions from 2024-2025, seeing how strategies perform under actual pressure.

Chief Investment Strategist

Harlan spent twelve years at institutional funds before joining mirevalentis. He got frustrated watching retail investors get advice that would never fly in professional settings—strategies with holes you could drive a truck through.

He leads our curriculum design, making sure every strategy we teach has been tested against real market conditions. Not backtested with cherry-picked data, but actually used in live markets by investors dealing with real constraints.

"People deserve the same quality of analysis that institutional investors get," he says. "Not dumbed down, just explained properly."
