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.

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.

Satisfied student dust far
Malcolm and Edger was very good at breaking down the information and “ VERY VERY” patient with us. I like that all of our questions was answered even tho we asked a lot of the same questions over and over. I have a much better understanding of the marker in the short space of time. I will recommend trading academy to everyone young and old.

Finally real training on charts
I’ve been trading now as a beginner/novice for 6 years and for the first time in my career I can say that this has been well worth it. Better than any YouTube University or multi level marketing gimmicks this was for real. I’m proud to say that I honestly know what I’m looking at when I read the charts thanks to OTA and its great leaders and community. I am grateful and worth every dollar. The Core class with Malcolm The Mayor in person was everything and more. Thank you OTA and Malcolm I appreciate you

1-on-1 with Malcolm
Malcolm helped me spot errors in my trading during a 1-on-1 meeting with the instructor. We also went over the Academy's trading strategy, which helped solidify the trading techniques that I should be making, and how to better read a chart. Sometimes small changes can make a big difference in trading, and these 1-on-1s help tremendously with that.

The care and attention to details
The care and attention to details. The thorough explanation of the concepts and the process.
The effort to make sure everyone understands and is able to express themselves and participate accordingly.

The community is great
The community is great. I love the fact that if you have any concerns the director and the staff are always available. It doesn't feel like a school but a community. Everyone is very friendly and accessible for the students needs. From the director to the receptionist. Also, having the Director be so helpful understanding and willing to help the students succeed is the cherry on top.
