Building Better Financial Understanding Since 2019
We started neuronstreamline because too many people were making investment decisions based on guesswork rather than actual company analysis. Six years later, we're still focused on teaching the skills that help investors see past market noise.
What We've Accomplished Together
Our students come from all backgrounds. Some have accounting experience, others are complete beginners. What matters is the commitment to learning how companies actually work.
How This Started
Back in 2019, I was consulting for a mid-sized firm in Plovdiv. They had money to invest but kept chasing tips from financial news channels. After watching them lose on three consecutive "hot stock" picks, I realized something fundamental was missing. Not complicated derivatives knowledge or algorithmic trading—just basic company analysis.
So we built a course. Eight weeks. Financial statements, competitive analysis, management quality assessment. Nothing fancy. The first cohort had eleven people. By month four, two of them were analyzing companies better than some analysts I'd worked with in Sofia.
That validation mattered. We weren't trying to create day traders or promise anyone wealth. We just wanted people to read an annual report without feeling lost.
Our Teaching Philosophy
We believe fundamental analysis isn't about predicting stock prices. It's about understanding business quality and valuation context.
Real Company Examples
Every lesson uses actual Bulgarian and European companies. We analyze their financial statements, business models, and competitive positions. No theoretical examples that don't translate to real markets.
Practical ApplicationIncremental Skill Development
You start with understanding basic financial metrics. Then move to interpreting trends. Eventually, you're evaluating management credibility and assessing whether a company's competitive advantages are sustainable.
Progressive LearningSmall Group Instruction
We cap cohorts at twenty-five students. This isn't a scalability play. It's about making sure everyone gets feedback on their analysis and can ask questions when financial concepts don't click immediately.
Personal AttentionKey Milestones
Progress happens gradually when you're teaching analytical skills rather than quick trading tactics.
How We Teach Differently
Most finance education either oversimplifies to the point of uselessness or drowns students in jargon. We try to find the middle path.
No Hype or Promises
We don't claim our training will make anyone wealthy or guarantee investment success. Good analysis improves decision quality. That's it. Markets do what they want regardless of how well you understand balance sheets.
Structured but Flexible
Core curriculum follows a set sequence because certain concepts build on others. But we adjust pacing based on cohort background. Sometimes we spend two extra sessions on cash flow analysis because it clicked slower that term.
Peer Learning Environment
Students often learn as much from each other's questions as from instructor explanations. We encourage discussion about why someone interpreted a metric differently or reached an alternate conclusion about competitive positioning.
Assignment-Based Learning
Theory matters less than application. Every module includes analysis assignments where students pick a company, pull its financials, and present findings to the group. Feedback comes from both instructors and peers.
Spent twelve years analyzing equities for institutional clients before realizing I enjoyed teaching analysis more than doing it full-time. Still consult occasionally but mostly focus on curriculum development and advanced modules.
Handles the logistics that make small-group learning possible—scheduling, student communications, materials preparation. Also teaches introductory financial statement modules because he's good at explaining accounting basics without overcomplicating.
What We've Learned About Teaching Analysis
Six years of running cohorts teaches you things about how people actually learn financial concepts.
Accounting Intimidates More Than It Should
The biggest barrier isn't the math or the concepts. It's students convincing themselves they're "not numbers people" before even trying. Once someone successfully analyzes their first income statement, that mental block usually disappears. We now frontload early confidence-building assignments specifically for this reason.
Teaching InsightIndustry Context Matters Enormously
You can't evaluate a retail company using the same framework as a software business. Different economics, different metrics, different competitive dynamics. We learned to teach industry-specific analysis earlier in the curriculum.
Case Studies Beat Theory
Students remember the Bulgarian telecommunications company case study where we dissected competitive positioning far better than they remember the lecture on Porter's Five Forces that preceded it.
Skepticism Is Healthy
Our best students question management narratives and dig into footnotes. We actively encourage that mindset because blind acceptance of company messaging defeats the purpose of fundamental analysis.
Peer Review Improves Analysis Quality
When students present their company analysis to the cohort, they prepare more thoroughly than for instructor-only assignments. The social pressure to present solid work apparently motivates better than grades ever did.
Following Up Matters
We maintain an alumni network where graduates can ask questions about companies they're analyzing. Turns out fundamental analysis gets easier with practice, but people still benefit from occasionally checking their reasoning with someone experienced.
