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.

I absolutely loved being in class
I absolutely loved being in class. The instructors actually listen to you and help you with everything. I have been with other instructors outside of OTA and it was the worst experience ever because there was nothing really being taught. Here you can take the same class as many times as you want so you can understand it.

Options for the Win!
For the Options class, my experience was great. My instructor, Greg, really showed his enthusiasm and experience for the Options topic. This class was information overloaded, but any learning experience was pleasant, and enough to get started.

The Woodland Hills location of Trading Academy is really amazing (I'm sure other locations are great too, but I haven't been in other locations). Here, everyone is very professional and kind, and most importantly, their trading strategy and techniques really work. At first, I was uncertain about trading, and skeptical of what the Trading Academy could offer after enrollment. But the more I interact with their team, the more appealing this new journey becomes.
