Written by the company

Trading Academy provides education for people who want to understand stock trading, options trading, futures trading, forex trading, and crypto trading. Our proprietary Core Strategy offers a structured framework to help learners analyze markets and make informed decisions. For over 25 years, more than 85,000 students have taken our classes. Whether you’re exploring how to buy stocks, how to trade options, how to short a stock, or how to invest in crypto, our courses emphasize practical techniques, terminology, and risk awareness. Instruction is available at more than ten education centers across the U.S., as well as internationally in Dubai, with additional online access through a comprehensive student portal and mobile app supported by over sixty instructors. Students gain exposure to a wide range of market topics, including how to buy and sell stocks, use stock trading simulators, understand stock profit calculators, and navigate premarket and after-hours trading sessions. In options trading, students learn what options are, how to trade calls and puts, and explore core concepts such as theta and delta while using simulated environments to apply lessons safely. Futures education covers what futures contracts are, how to trade futures responsibly, and how to interpret trading hours and platform features. Forex instruction helps learners understand what forex trading is, how the forex market operates, and how to use tools like position-size and profit calculators. In crypto education, students examine what cryptocurrency is, how to buy and store it safely, where to trade it, and how to use crypto trading platforms, exchanges, and profit calculators. Across all programs, learners also study topics such as platform evaluation, risk management fundamentals, AI-assisted trading tools, and paper trading for practice. Courses are intended for educational purposes only. Trading and investing involve risk, including the potential loss of principal. Past performance does not guarantee future outcomes. Trading Academy is not a broker, dealer, or investment adviser.

Why do Wall Street firms seem to be consistently profitable while many individual traders fall short of their financial goals or lose money?

Junior

Junior, the Student Support Specialists, definitely embodies this title! He was very patient and helpful to facilitate my deeper understanding of the Trading Academy's Core Strategy. This educational undertaking is challenging, but I feel like I have enormous resoures and generous support that enables me to find joy in the journey, in spite of me learning at a slower pace.
Thank you Junior! and Thank you Trading Academy!

I dont recommend ...

I am just not pleased with the academy at all. I was led to believe that as "an academy" the classes would be more like an elite education, but quite the contrary. Its like a bunch of adults hanging out begging for crumbs to get their money's worth. Communication in adjustments is poor at best and you are just expected to roll with it even though its little benefit to you. Many times students are told "We do not hold your hand. You can watch videos." For $30K, $40K, $50K, you have videos to watch. I am 4 months in and still would not recommend Trading Academy to any family member. I simply do not feel I've gotten a good value for my money and am very disappointed. The instructor Taylor F. Was amazing, but he's a rare breed. He was upright, engaging, excited to teach, excited when a student got it, his speech was clear and not mumbly at all. I am looking forward to the next instructor, J. Owens.

Thankful for Trading Academy

I Love that you are taught by experienced men and women who love to share their experience and skills but most of all they want you to see succeed. And all the advisors and student support are so kind and helpful. They are always willing to help and go the extra mile. They are so patient with beginners. And the amount of tools and resources Trading Academy offers makes it really impossible to fail unless you just don't try and utilize all the resources available to you! I'm very grateful to be a part of the Trading Academy community because it feels like family!

Futures and Forex

Great school that offers various courses and support. Craig Weil, in particular, is a wonderful instructor who uses explicit instruction with differentiated strategies. He makes sure all students build confidence while learning the process and tools to trading.

Over class was informative

Over class was informative. However, I think the number of instructors in the class should be based on the number of students. Instructor could not assist all students with issues. Malcolm answered questions more general, in front of the class which i prefer my specific question to receive a direct/specific answer not general. Edgar was definitely more hands on including answering questions directly. But I could have gain much more knowledge if at least one more instructor was avaliable based on the size of our class.

This has been a remarkable experience

This has been a remarkable experience. As a newbie to trading, taking the Core Strategy class has taught me a lot. The flexibility with the night class was a plus. The information taught combined with the online material introduced me to the fundamentals of trading. Malcolm is very knowledgeable. I appreciate the additional support provided by student support.

Trading academy was the best decision

Trading academy was the best decision I made.. I was kind of skeptical at first, But decided to go with it. I learned a lot in core strategy with Malcolm and Edgar. They were wonderful. I most definitely will be taking their class again. 10 out of 10 recommended.

Malcon y Edgar

Mr. Malcon is a kind and patient teacher with his students, and he explains the material we want to learn very clearly.
Edgar, too, gives me a great deal of confidence and motivation to keep learning; since he also speaks Spanish, that helps me significantly to understand even more of what we are studying.

The instructors were all great

The instructors were all great. The energy and effort they put into teaching the concepts were very direct and fast paced. The expectations were very high. The concepts are drilled over and over which is great. Malcolm’s disposition is very entertaining and inviting. You can tell he really cares about us and wants to see us succeed. Edgar is no and direct. He shoots straight from the hip. He makes you learn and apply the processes on your own to ensure that you are putting in what you expect to get out of the course. There is no hand holding it’s hard work and you must study in class and out to keep up or you will fall behind. Day 4 is when I felt the most comfortable because Malcolm encourages you not to give up and give yourself grace. It felt better to know that 3-6 months is a more realistic time frame for a learning professional to grasp a full understanding of this course

Good Class

Overall the class was informative. However I was able to pick up more from Edgar because he broke it down a little better for me to catch on.
