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.

Student Support has done the best job of ensuring that I get the most value from everything Trading Academy has to offer. Seema is great at highlighting the resources that come with the academy purchase and encouraging students to pursue continuous education beyond the weekly sessions. She has been great at providing insight and inspiration from her own trading journey.
I took a few classes and was most inspired by Jordan and Nikki, both of whom were enlightening and instilled confidence in me to pursue trading.

This trading academy does a great job breaking down complex market concepts into clear, easy-to-understand lessons. The instructors are knowledgeable and focus on real-world trading strategies, not just theory. I especially appreciated how structured the program is — from risk management and technical analysis to mindset and discipline.

Student from August 2014
I have been a student from August 2014, and Trading Academy has been and still is the number one trade school. Why? After classes' instructions, there are many resources to solidify your education, track your performance, online and live meet up to ask your questions. The best, once tuition is paid, your education and access is lifetime. I am proof, I started in August 2014, and still attending, learning, and having successful trading. Highly recommended.

I truly think everyone should take this class at least once a year. Protecting your portfolio against market volatility and structuring an income producing portfolio in addition to having insurance on market downturns is so pivotal. This opened my eyes and got all my wheels turning. It’s a lot of information to process, the class could easily be a month long but you will gain tremendous insight, tactics, and tools for you to be able to live comfortably in retirement while building wealth and income.
