It is a different world when you can learn from, and actually trade with, experienced traders in a real-time, physical environment. The lifetime repeats and lifetime XLT’s are a fantastic value.

"This morning I tried the Dow break out play that you showed us during the E-mini class a couple weeks ago. It worked just like you drew it out. This was the first time I looked for it, so I was a little conservative. If I played it just like I should have, I would have pulled off 27 points, but I set my exit at only 20 points. I left a little on the table, but it was fun setting it up and then have it work." Vern V., June 2009

"I came to your option trading class early December 2008 hoping to learn new strategies to improve my inconsistent results in trading equities and options. Well, I did not just learn a little bit, but a whole lot about why I could not make consistent profits. I was on the wrong side most of the time, chased when I should have sold, and sold when I should have bought. After the class, I developed a trading plan and my results improved dramatically. I dare to say, the results improved to such a degree, that I forgot to worry about the future. I would recommend your training classes whole-heartedly to my friends. Attached is a picture of a graduate of your school sitting on his sailboat in the Caribbean and trading with a smile." Hans D., June 2009

"The Online Trading Academy experience is a very affordable and viable way to become introduced to the fascinating world of direct access trading. Having the ability to retake the class at your own pace and schedule is an immense benefit, because as time passes, you may want to revisit the course material several times, and you have the opportunity to hear different instructors give their own take on the coursework, which will allow you to experience the material in a slightly different way each time. My recent trip to the Denver Online Trading Academy location with Darek providing the instruction was a first rate experience that will surely provide me with a great tune up after having been away from the trading environment for a while. He did a great job in refreshing my trading knowledge." Clark C., April 2009
