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.

Core Strategy Online - A great use of my time!
I did an online course as a retake - I haven't taken the Core Strategy course in a few years. It included prework plus there was recommended homework every day. The course is well organized, and the pacing by the instructor was excellent. He was patient and answered all questions. I filled in a few gaps in my learning, plus I am tweaking my trade plan based on teachings from the course. It was a great use of my time as I have recently returned to active trading.
Nikki was an excellent teacher

Nikki is my favorite teacher
Nikki is my favorite teacher. She has come a long way in becoming an elite educator.
It is best to have an instructor that…has experience and knows what he is talking about because he still lives it.
It is best to have an instructor that actually does what he teaches about. Craig still trades futures and with his vast years of experience, he knows what he is talking about. I like how he thought a bit about any questions asked and he answered the exact question that was asked.
