Read what our graduates have to say about Online Trading Academy courses!

2009 Pro Trader Class Testimonials

“I have always been skeptical of trading "gurus" and classes in which I had previously researched. However, I must say that after trading fairly successfully over the previous 2-3 years I believe that this new information will enable me to finally take the guesswork out of my trading methodology and allow me to enjoy much higher levels of consistency and predictability. Thanks to the Online Trading Academy staff, and especially Kevin, for making this a very valuable experience which I am confident that I will take with me for the rest of my life. Thanks!”

Larry H., June 2009

“This, by far, has to be the best stock trading class that I have to date taken.”

Betty D., June 2009

“I have attended many seminars, weekend sessions, but never had this depth of detail on the important issues.”

Bill W., June 2009

“I have been trading for about 3 years and have found it very hard to maintain a consistent winning track record. This class has helped me identify the skills and techniques I thought were missing from my trading education. I have taken classes with two other schools. I can say with confidence that I have learned more in 7 days with Online Trading Academy than I did in three years with either of those two schools. The ability to identify support and resistance lines were the most important items that the other two schools did not teach or worse taught it wrong. The second most important thing I learned were which tools do not work. In addition you have helped me to start the process of identifying what kind of trader I am and to make a business plan. Thanks Online Trading Academy.”

Ben Y., June 2009

“An excellent wake up call to return to basics of technical analysis and not rely on "magical" trading indicators. Highly recommended to anyone interested in serious trading.”

Randall H., June 2009

“This class has affected my life in more than just trading.”

Bud B., June 2009

“I've spent 13 years as a CPA and finance professional, and taking this class has shown me a way to generate equal and potentially greater income, but most importantly in far less hours per day, and I am already dreaming about the better ways to use my time with family and friends that this will create for me. This class is going to prepare me for a chance at an even better quality of life if I am willing to do what I'm being taught consistently. There's no question I'll do that!! I came in this class with an expectation of building my overall knowledge in preparation for adding a skill set....I'm leaving with confidence that I can turn this "skill set" into a successful business for years to come if I consistently do what I was taught. That is incredibly exciting!! Thank you Kevin Green for making this possible!”

Peter B., June 2009

“I have worked for a forex brokerage for three years now and having attended the class with an open mind, it exceeded my expectations. I can honestly say that being in the "finance" business, working for a major brokerage and trading for myself, I really believed that I knew how the markets work. Now that I've taken this class, I know that was not the case and that there was plenty of information that I had never been exposed to. Thank you Online Trading Academy!”

Brian H., June 2009

“Shamus is an excellent trainer. I learned in few days more than I did for years using different sources. This was a true confirmation of my thoughts about stock trading, that there is to it more than a novice can get on their own by reading material and listening to news. Thanks for the great material and support. Shamus made the class more worth it by adding his own experience and knowledge level. Thank you Shamus and Online Trading Academy!”

Nadir F., May 2009

“This was a great class. I would strongly recommend it to any new trader or someone interested in learning how to trade for profit. The instruction and material are excellent. If you truly want to trade for a living this is hands down the best education for the money.”

Rod C., May 2009

“This a truly exceptional course even for experienced traders like myself. I have learned a lot about the market and about risk managment. This course will greatly improve my trading skills.”

Edward J., May 2009

“This class converted me into a trader! I will attempt to do it professionally now and have the confidence that I have the knowledge to attempt it.”

Randy S., May 2009

“I have been involved with instruction and/or training in my full time career for over 14 years. Shamus and all the instructors here are VERY good at explaining very advanced and complex amounts of information in a very friendly and helpful way. All these guys have an obvious passion for what they do and go out of their way to help their students get to where they want to be in their trading goals. Thanks Shamus and Online Trading Academy!”

Arthur S., April 2009

“This program is excellent for someone who wants a better understanding of the stock market and trading. This information cannot be picked up from books or other reading material. The subjects covered outline the key information in a usable format that is essential to achieving any type of long term success.”

Gary B., April 2009

“After the expensive, disappointing experiences of so many others that make unfulfilled expectations, it is very refreshing to finally be connected with Online Trading Academy which has exceeded all expectations in every way.”

Wally K., April 2009

“This class is a gold mine of information. I cannot imagine trying to get into the market without taking this class. It's like one of those things that you have no idea how valuable it is until you hear it. This class has changed my thinking. It has put me in a different category as everyone else. I have the edge that counts. I have a tool set and a knowledge that you can't put a price on. Thank you Shamus for changing my life.”

Richard W., March 2009

“Shamus is a great Instructor. Course topics discussed in class are sure to apply to any market condition. I feel more confident about trading. I have been trading live intraday in the markets for about 3 weeks now. I feel that the class has cleared up a few things that may help me to be more profitable in my trading. I can't wait to go live in my own account again next week.”

Kyle M., March 2009

“I was pleasantly surprised at how well the class went at Online Trading Academy. Shamus O'Connor did a great job explaining the material.”

Mike S., March 2009

“If you want trade to replace your current income, this is the class for you.”

Karl M., March 2009

“To become an accomplished trader takes a tremendous amount of knowledge and I firmly believe attending this class has given me an edge to continue trading in the stock market. Anyone who expects to maximize their trading capabilities needs to participate in this class. I wish I knew about it years ago, when I first began trading stocks.”

James H., March 2009

“I would highly recommend the Online Trading Academy training class. The materials and instructors are top quality. They teach relevant and everyday, usable trading skills that can help you earn a paycheck from the stock market. I am so pleased and thankful for the Online Trading Academy instructors and staff.”

Dwain F., March 2009

“I cannot say enough about the valuable experience while attending the Professional Trader class at Online Trading Academy, and the wealth of knowledge I received. I felt that the staff and instructors were committed to my learning experience and that they truly cared about my specific goals as a professional trader. I highly recommend Online Trading Academy, the curriculum, and the staff if you want to step up your knowledge and wish to be more successful as a trader.”

Glenn J., March 2009

“I wish that I had taken this course two years ago before going to Hard Knocks U. The tuition at Online Trading Academy is much less expensive. I believe that using the principles and discipline taught in the class will make me a very profitable trader. I have seen the light and would recommend this to anyone wanting to better themselves in the market.”

Ryan H., March 2009

“If I only had this course sooner! I have had some instruction before but none of them got this in detail and were as concerned with the students understanding of the material.”

Michael S., March 2009

“I would recommend Online Trading Academy to anyone who wishes to trade online. My advice: JOIN Online Trading Academy, STAY GREEN. Until now I was fighting the war with a bow and arrow, Online Trading Academy gave me an AK 47. Thanks!”

Mathew C., March 2009

“This was great course & I would recommend to anyone who is serious about trading...”

Joe G., March 2009

“I would like to thank all of the staff and instructors. I have recently invested a lot in the "BLACK BOX" methods to no avail. The material contained in your course has raised my knowledge of trading to great heights. I am a much more confident trader than ever before and I no longer feel that the whole trading world is against me. I would especially like to thank the instructor Shamus. He has a great knowledge of trading and has the ability to teach that to even the most novice of traders. He is also able to keep the attention of the students and keep the material fun. I wish Online Trading Academy all the luck in the future and look forward to continuing my education with you in the very near future.”

Michael S., February 2009

“This class fills in all the blanks. It doesn't matter how many free seminars or how many books you read this class is essential!”

Mark W., February 2009

“I felt like a sponge absorbing water. I have loved every minute and am amazed at how much knowledge I have acquired in the last 7 days on trading. I feel like I have a new lease on life. The class as a whole is "the best"!!”

Charlyne S., February 2009

“This material and approach is essential to learning the steps necessary to begin to trade. Each day the class reviews the material previously and adds to your knowledge base. Asking questions is encouraged and I never felt like I just had to sit there and observe without active participation.”

Ronnie P., February 2009

“This class is most interesting to me due to the fact that for years I looked for someone to manage money and protect my retirement nest egg. Recently I discovered that financial advisors do not know or have interest to manage money of their clients. This class is providing me the tools so I no longer need to rely on others. Thanks for your class Online Trading Academy!”

Mel T., February 2009

“There are hundreds of opportunities to waste your money with someone who pretends to be qualified to teach you about the market, you won't do that with Online Trading Academy.”

Jamie J., February 2009

“You don't have to understand all of how the world works, you just need an open mind and be willing to change your thought patterns and be willing to be a student and except a world class education in trading. Thank you for being here and taking the time to care for all of us out here and allowing us to know the only truth, which the rest of the world does not know, nor teach! We are looking forward to having great accomplishments in the future by using what we have learned here at Online Trading Academy.”

Mike B., January 2009

“I appreciate the fact that this course is presented so that everyone on any level can come into this and not be intimidated by the presence of more experienced traders in the class. I can't imagine a better experience! The quality of the instruction, the quantity of the information, the value for the dollar, and the support network available to us following the class considerably surpassed all of my expectations!

“The first three days was without a doubt the best trading class I have ever attended, and I have attended a lot.”

Brack S., December 2008

“I have been teaching and training professionals in one capacity or another for 13 years. I've seen A LOT of bad, boring, and unhelpful presentations. The folks here take some of the most difficult information to understand and compress it in a way that not only can be understood but applied. The willingness of the staff to help you become a confident and successful trader shows in their attitude, delivery and follow up. Excellent Online Trading Academy. I'll see you at the top!”

John L., November 2008

“Of all the classes and seminars I've attended in the last 5 years this is the one that brought it all together for me so I can intelligently select a strategy for the market conditions and quantify my risk vs reward. It helped me understand how the greeks affect my trades and help me to identify why my trades haven't been working as I thought they should in the past. I thought I knew what I was doing from past trainings but realized I had been missing several pieces of the puzzle until now, I expect this to make a big difference in my future trades. Definitely the best option class I've ever taken (and I've taken alot of them over the years). If you've been trading options and not making money you need this class.”

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to open up the door to stock market trading.”

Maude G., September 2008

“The Online Trading Academy, being the best place I have ever attended any seminar, has exposed me to a whole lot of things I never expected to learn in my lifetime. When they say they teach you like the wall street pro's, believe it because their instructors are just perfect! My experience here has definitely been worth the money and I look forward to attending more of their offered courses. They are simply the best.”

Uchenna O., August 2008

“I felt I attended college, and got more practical experience and knowledge than some courses the colleges provide in a semester.”

Wes O., August 2008

Marlon W., August 2008

“Excellent insights into the world of professional trading. This would be of use to most anyone who has an interest in trading stocks. I highly recommend this class. There is a world of information from books and the net but it does not show you what to do in real time. I had no idea it was like this from lots of reading.”

David S., August 2008

“I learned more in these 7 days than I have over the past 6 months of studying and going to seminars. Thanks Online Trading Academy!”

Steve S., July 2008

“I can't imagine anyone attempting to trade in the market without this knowledge. It's Stock Market Russian Roulette without Online Trading Academy! Thanks for letting me know how ignorant I was before coming here. I have attended many classes and seminars in regards to trading. Online Trading Academy is the most complete trading education I have received anywhere at any time. I would highly recommend this to anyone interested in improving their trading skills or money management skills in regards to the markets and all types of trading/investing.”

Jimmy L., July 2008

“This class was tremendously helpful in my understanding and comfort with trading the markets. The instructor was excellent and provided the personal and hands on experience that I needed.”

Dwain F., July 2008

Teri B., June 2008

“The Online Trading Academy Trading Equities class was a very good educational confidence builder. I now feel strongly that I can and will be a successful trader.”

Luke C., June 2008

“Incredible instruction with hands on trading so that you can gain experience and confidence with live trading.”

Janet L., June 2008

“This course has given me the confidence I needed to actively trade in the equities market. As well, the information gained will assist in all of the other forms of investing (businesses/real estate) because the information overlays all of the other markets. I have no doubt that with a little time I will come through as a successful trader. I would put up the money for this class to any member of my family or a friend because I know that it will pay for itself over and over.”

Alan N., June 2008

“When I came to this class I was thinking that this would be another one of those "investments" class, however it was the opposite. It change my life with the way the material was presented. For sure I will came back and bring friends that are in need at this area. This class is priceless. Thank you Online Trading Academy!”

Leonardo S., June 2008

“Online Trading Academy is a cut above the rest. In addition to an outstanding staff and superior information, the class sizes are kept small and you ACTUALLY DO LIVE TRADING! This class beats anything I've been to. A cut above the rest!”

Morgan M., June 2008

“The best training anyone could experience. If one applies what is taught, I see no reason why one would not be successful. In today's fast paced environment of trading, this class is a must. The savings from proper execution skills and learning to keep the trading process simple will pay for the tuition, many times.”

John N., June 2008

“I had no idea how my Online Trading Academy education would improve my trading strategy, but now it is evident. There is now way to describe how much I have learned this week. This course is worth more than twice the amount I paid for it. Thanks Online Trading Academy!”

Wallace B., May 2008

Billy B., May 2008

“As a complete novice I would HIGHLY recommend Online Trading Academy to anyone who is interested or seeking to become an active trader. I've gone from being someone who knew absolutely nothing about the markets to being a confident and competent trader. I will always be grateful to the opportunities the academy has provided to me. Kevin rocks as an instructor! Online Trading Academy in my opinion is the best way to acquire the tools you need to become a successful trader.”

Clyde B., May 2008

“Of all the trading classes that I have ever attended, this one is the best - BY FAR.”

Jay G., June 2008

Bill V., June 2008

“Best training course I have ever taken - I truly understand what drives the markets now and will use it to improve my trading.”

John B., June 2008

“The class was truly a "nuts & bolts" class. I really believe that i have learned a foundation for trading that will serve me very well. The instructor was EXCELLENT, with over 10 years as a trader. I don't think we had one question that stumped him (and we asked many) I may have most liked his explanations of what worked for him and his encouragement to us that we could do what we were learning. I highly recomend this class.”

Steve E., April 2008

“It is hard to put into words.....the "value" of this education is hard to comprehend until after it is over... The class is tough. There is a lot of information to absorb and process BUT for those that make the commitment, they will experience a paradigm shift. I will be forever indebted to Kevin Green for his insights and teaching that facilitated the new perspective that I have. Thanks! ”

Dale G., April 2008

“I liked that the class had NO fluff, just the facts, but presented in a fun and easily undertstandable format!”

Randy S., April 2008

“Excellent training. I spent almost 20K on another stock trading course that never executed a live (or simulated for that matter) trade. This course is excellent blend of didactic and hands on training.”

Myron M., April 2008

“This is an excellent course and I highly recommend it to anyone of any age who desires to take controll of their investments, even if you know nothing about stock trading as I did not a couple days ago. It's a way to create generational wealth and do the things we were destined to accomplish, in this life. With the knowledge gained and the support of Online Trading Academy, I know for certain only greater financial success in in my future. Thank you Online Trading Academy. ”

Ellawese S., M.D., April 2008

“I came to this class rather skeptical based on other stock trading courses I had attended. I left with the information and skills needed to begin trading confidently immediately.”

Dianna G., April 2008

“The best part for me came AFTER graduation. I've been intouch with my instructor Kevin Green, as often as I need. He's simply "THE BEST". When we were in class, Kevin stayed late everyday for anyone that needed extra help. There were a few students that had never traded before. Kevin was so patient with everyone that we were all trading like PROS by the end of the week. I've been in touch with my classmates, who are as excited as I am and I'm almost finished with my office set up. There is nothing I'm not prepared for now. Kevin left "no stone unturned" with our education. There are also continuing programs and training as well as Alumni meetings and functions. It's like joining a family and I'm so glad that I'm a part of it all. This is the best investment I have ever made by far !!!”

Michael W., April 2008

“My confiedence level in trading has increased. I know my entry and exit. I don't guess anymore. I know why I am taking a trade and why I am exiting a trade. I am not chasing the candles any more. I am on my way to being a trader. I want to acknowledge Mark, my instructor for making me a trader. I wish I had done this long time ago..”

John J., March 2008

“I have never traded but watched over my husband trading, and he pushed me into this when I quit my job. I was skeptical to taking this class as I thought I dont have the aptitude to trading, but I was proven wrong. I am sure glad I listened to my husband. I expect to make good use of this in my baby steps. ”

Roma M., March 2008

“We have attended workshops several times in the metroplex. This is the first that we feel has real substance and presents a very real opportunity to gain skills and understanding of the market and how to take advantage of that knowledge.”

John H., March 2008

“Mark Leigh was a fantastic instructor. He new the material and explained it in a very simple and easy to understand way. After only 2 days I was shown a stratgey that I could use right away.”

Joel T., March 2008

“This class is a must for anyone that wants to trade and trade successfully. The in depth technical analysis was great and it helps lay a road map for making better entries and exits. Kevin was a very hands on instructor with great analogies for everything which makes it much easier for someone like me that is a visual learner. Thanks Kevin”

Ryan S., February 2008

“This course added yet another dimension of knowledge and strategy to my trading skills. I recommend it for a beginner, novice or advanced trader who wants more. The organization is respectful and responsible in their approach and provide a thorough program to compliment whatever else you might be using to improve your trading success.”

Margaret L., February 2008

“The class outlook was postitive, realistic, and detailed. As a person who has never preformed a live trade before the class and was very skeptical about trading, the class has definetly given me more confidence and insight.”

Caneeka G., February 2008

“Trading live with 20 other students allowed us to not only learn from our own misteaks, but also from the others'. The ctitiques after each trading session helped us to improve exponentially. I believe this is the only way to learn how to trade! (Having a great instructor helped, too...)”

Jerry R., February 2008

“Great class-covered technical forecasting which I didn't know anything about...I still have alot to learn, but this gives me visibility that I have never had before.”

Ken M., February 2008

“How much better can it get than getting educated by a Professional & skilled Trader who really knows his stuff in a hands on environment. Even the course fee is as good as free when you look at the brokerage rebates on the trades & more importantly the potential income. I am actually on my way to become a Full Time Trader, and this class nailed it for me - Thanks Rick & Thanks Online Trading Academy.”

Tamer E., February 2008

“After attending other seminars, I am very pleased with the amount of information that Rick delivered. I was hoping to get a better grasp of reading and understanding charts and was not disappointed - great information. Lot's of good recommendations and ideas for creating a trading plan that will improve my discipline.”

Laurie M., February 2008

“Online Trading Academy helped me to organize my trading style and make a plan. The class helped me to see the importance of discipline- making a plan and sticking to it. It fine tuned my ability to understand what I was seeing on a Level II screen.”

Alexis F., January 2008

“After many years of studying and having traded in the markets I have finally learned a system that is simple yet powerful. It reduces all the clutter to bite size; big enough to matter, small enough to manage. Thank you for this quality instruction free of "ego".”

Ida B., January 2008

2008 Options Trader Class Testimonials

“I've taken a lot of option classes and read a lot of option books but never really understood how to use the IV and Greeks in picking trades. Eric's explanation of the Greeks and what to look for in selecting trades made the difference. I now know how to use them to decide what strategy to use and weather it makes sense to put the trade on (risk/reward). Easily the best option class I've taken.”

Rick C., June 2008

“Eric is one of the best instructors I've ever had in any subject. He has made options more understandable and I believe that I can leverage my new knowledge into profitable trading.”

Duane C., June 2008

“I think it's great to have Eric teach the Options course with all his extended knowledge and personal experience on the CBOE. He's an amazing instructor and teaches more than books can ever offer. I feel like my knowledge increased 10 fold in 2 days.”

Jay R., June 2008

2008 Forex Class Testimonials

“Taking the class is like getting a college degree in trading”

Wes O., September 2008

“Although I was not in the best financial shape when I signed up for the course I did it on the competence of the staff that I met on the power workshop class. I extended myself financially so that I could invest in the best training and as much for the follow up support that I will need. Now I feel confident that I can continue to grow as a trader. I feel fortunate to have this facility close to where I live.”

Boyd W., September 2008

“Rick was OUTSTANDING! His explanations were wonderful, easy to understand, and extremely valuable. I would definitely take another course from Online Trading Academy again with Rick as the instructor. My understanding of FOREX has increased far beyond my years of reading books and the internet. There is nothing like live instruction and Online Trading Academy is BY FAR the BEST! If you are looking for an experienced FOREX instructor, register for the course with Rick. It has truly been a pleasure. He took his class seriously and taught us how NOT to trade.”

Alisha R., September 2008

“Excellent course for any beginner and even to anyone who has made the pitfalls to get in and learn the real correct way of trading.”

Nilanthi R., September 2008

2007 Class Testimonials

“It has been one of the best experiences and value for the money for any education I have received since my days at West Point. This is an awesome class that teaches one how traders think and act. I came close to not taking the class but that would have been a big mistake. The instructor Russ Allen, was great and worth his weight in gold. He is a trader and instructor and it has been my privilege to get my training under him. Thanks to you also, Sean, for your patience and for your dedication to bringing this type of education to the public. I am still amazed that the financial world is not trying to shut you down. May God continue to bless and keep each of you and continue to bless Online Trading Academy.”

Rev. Robert R., November 2007

“I am truly blessed to have found out about Online Trading Academy and attended the Professional Trader Class. The class materials, facilities, and instructor have all been top notch! I highly recommend Online Trading Academy to anyone serious about becoming a successful trader.”

Tim H., November 2007

“Knowledge is power but if you don't know how to implement it, it is not power. Reading books on stocks is okay but Online Trading Academy is the place for learning how to use your knowledge practically. In my opinion Online Trading is the best place to start from.”

Hasan M., November 2007

“The staff are awesome. They do everything to make our learning envoirnment comfortable and not distractive to focus. The computer set up is efficient. The material is well structured for an easy learning process. This is a good immersion foundation course for anyone who wishes to put their plan together to be a successful trader.”

David W., November 2007

“What a refreshing change, attending a trading class that really teaches the concepts necessary to trade sucessfully in the stock market instead of using the class as an opportunity to sell you more classes and software. Being able to reattend a class as often as you need for a refresher is reassuring even though the instructors are have so much expertise in the markets that a person has no trouble grasping the concepts. Thank you to all the staff at Online Trading Academy Texas for being the answer to my frustration in trading the equities and currency markets with confidence. You Rock, Online Trading Academy!”

Paula T., October 2007

“I wished I would have attended this class years ago before I lost BIG money in the market. Not knowing how to short ,,,,,, wow what a difference. Being able to make money in up or down market, makes me feel like a " PRO ".”

Merrick M., October 2007

“I enjoyed Kevin's real life trading expereince that he shared with the class, which helped highlighting the theory and mechanics we learned. Kevin's humor and dynamic personality definitely transpired our classroom learning. "Live" trading exercise puts us on a driver seat and test our skills "under the fire". Great class!”

Jackie B., October 2007

“I have been to many courses before, and they all leave you hanging with no place to go but to anotheer service which they spend lots of time promoting. This has been good and I am looking forward to the future.”

Herb C., October 2007

“I am 25 years old and had no prior trading experience or education. With an open mind and a willingness to learn I was able to make four out of four trades on the last day with out one loss.”

Grant K., October 2007

“This training changed my way of trading. And provided me a whole new trading philosophy. It is a revolution to me.”

David D., October 2007

“Blown Away!!! I never knew the market could be so easily understood. Brokerage Houses are really taking us/the retail public for a ride.”

Michael S., October 2007

“I enjoyed the class imensley, and I for one will use what I learned from this class to trade on a daily basis. The technical part of the market and what all the indicators mean will help me on my trade execution and exiting the trade as well.”

Leo W., October 2007

“This class provided EXACTLY the education I was looking for to become an active trader, and one that can have supreme confidence moving forward. Everyone at Online Trading Academy can be respected as knowlegable and generous of spirit. I would highly recommend Online Trading Academy to anyone who is looking to become a trader. In fact I wouldn't recommend doing so without the education you receive here.”

Laura J., October 2007

“This class has prepared me with everything I need to be successful trading forex. I would recommend it to anyone trading or considering trading forex.”

Tony H., October 2007

“I came to the class looking to pick up advanced option strategies in order to hedge exposure because trading was causing too much anxiety. Actually, it was the lesson on supply and demand, which was never taught to me before and I never thought was going to be presented since you'd figure that would be covered in the technical analysis class, that gave me such a clear perspective on how this game works and now I am not sure if I want to hedge anymore. This is the missing piece of the puzzle to complete your advanced education.”

Andrew B., September 2007

“I have been studying options on my own for over a year. This class has helped me pull a lot of information together and prepared me to jump out into the market.”

Michael c., September 2007

“I've taken several other classes, walked away knowing much about a proprietary platform with ongoing costs to me and little about the markets and trading as awhole. My experience with Online Trading Academy completely enlightened me and taught me the markets, how to trade in uptrends and downtrends. The best educational experience I've had in my academic life! I feel like I owe them money! Outstanding!”

Kim H., September 2007

“My confidence is restored!!!! I stopped trading a year ago due to a loss of confidence. However, during the past week, I have been able to identify, and hopefully correct, some of the mistakes I was making, and though I had more losses than winners this week, I feel SO MUCH better about my trading capabilities than a week ago. As I re-enter the market, I am ready to go”

Ron S., September 2007

“I found that I learned more in 1 week taking the pro trader 1&2 classes,then I have learned in 7+ years of self study.The attention to detail, level of Instruction,knowlege of the insructor,materials and live trading exercises,were worth a great deal more to me than the cost of the course and time spent. Thanks for offering this course and to Merlin our instuctor for everything learned and a GREAT time learning it.”

Ronald F., September 2007

“This is an excellent class. My only regret is that I did not take the class BEFORE I ever started trading.”

August 2007

“This material is an excellent starting point - wish I had known about this course before taking all the others. It also serves as an excellent review - reinforces prior learning or corrects misinformation. The live trading was excellent.”

Gary P., August 2007

“I truly enjoyed this course, this is another audit for me and I always, always learn something new. Your course covers a very diverse and complex subject better than any other I've been too.”

Reggie H., August 2007

“Money well spent! I could have saved a lot of money if I took this class before starting to manage my own retirement accounts! Kevin is the best instructor I've ever had in any subject. I loved his golden nuggets! ”

Ryan O., August 2007

“If you think $5000.00 is too much to pay for a learning experience that could change your entire future, you would be wrong. The opportunity is priceless, and the knowledge to regain the investment of the cost of the class was returned before the end of the second day.”

Jan H., May 2007

“The Broad Market Analysis class is well worth the time. I learned some not so obvious skills such as relative strength analysis and that risk management is more than just putting in a stop. Fernando Gonzalez has put together a great presentation and has packed a tremendous amount of information in a 2 day class.”

Dan M., April 2007

“Whether you want to do Day Trading, Swing Trading, or Position Trading -- this class is a must attend. No one should be in the market (at any level) without taking this course. The price is cheap for what you get ”

Jack M., April 2007

“The most knowledgeable instructor along with the best real life trading content that anyone could ever hope for! My only regret is I did not take this years ago. Kevin is a great instructor. His dedication to his students is super.”

Chris C., April 2007

“I went to several of your competitor's presentations before I came to Online Trading Academy. I was impressed by the environment and style of the presenters. I was especially impressed by Alan's methodology and Sean's knowledge. I felt very comfortable with my decision to go with Online Trading Academy. That comfort level was further increased when I actually came to class and started being taught by Kevin Green. Most of the class involves lecturing, and Kevin remains animated and interesting with a good flow. I feel very confident that I will become a great trader!”

Frank S., April 2007

“I came as a skeptic not believing in the concept of trading as well with instructors who teach but have no clue about actual trading. However after the class, my skepticism has significantly reduced. Further, the instructor was excellent in providing actual practical experience instead of "dry" technical knowledge. He taught the technical analysis with a practical application without boring us through the gory details. Thanks for the excellent class and instruction... Cheers”

Rajan K., March 2007

“Kevin was excellent. I learned a lot more in this retake of the course than I ever imagined was possible. The time he took to go over the details of technical analysis was superb. Thank you very much for the opportunity to go through the class a 2nd time with Kevin as the instructor.”

Richard P., March 2007

“I feel like I am getting full value for the money invested in this course. The exposure to all of the terminology, techniques and practical skills needed for trading; tempered by Kevin's real world background was probably most valuable.”

George H., March 2007

“This class simplified the complexities of trading -- yet it was thorough. I was able to immediately identify & correct my "bad habits" to create a solid plan for success. ”

Ryan H., March 2007

“I wish I could give some constructive criticism because I believe it is always beneficial for any program however, I found that I was overall satisfied and hope that you guys will continue the program as is. Good job it went beyond all of my expectations.”

Christina T., January 2007

“Kevin G. is from the trenches of the Market. And with 10+ years of experience (about as long as computer trading has been around) you can't go wrong. Personal experiences (good and bad but especially bad) really helped. As a beginner with absolutely no experience, I HIGHLY recommend this course. I don't want to be a statistic and this class helped to ensure I will not be. English is my 2nd language and the material was not "over my head," easy to understand, step-by-step instructions. Thank you.”

Ion B., January 2007

2006 Class Testimonials

“I have taken some very expensive courses. This is the first one that actually brought everything together. The live trading demonstrated if you were getting it or not.”

Mary M., December 2006

“Kevin Green made this course a great experience. His ability to encourage, teach, lead and get us to focus on the all of the concepts was quite amazing and rewarding. I was concerned before attending the class that I would find intraday trading not for me and unable to transfer those concepts to longer a longer trading style. I now know I was wrong.”

Buddy W., December 2006

“Outstanding. The instructor went above and beyond all of my expectations as far as the quality and quantity of the information he presented. Kevin Green was, without a doubt, the most dedicated instructor I have ever had in any class I have ever taken. His preparation and dedication was unbelievable and was beyond anything I had ever experienced. I will certainly recommend this class to associates, and further recommend that they ensure that they have Kevin as their instructor. One trade in my 401k account, based on the information I received this week, will easily make up the cost of tuition and help me rest easier at night.”

Paul E., December 2006

“If you really want to know how the markets work, if you really want to improve your trading abilities, if you want to know how to create a trading plan, and a business plan, if you're tired of unexpected slippage, and high commission costs, if you want to get ahead of all the overwhelming information available, and have a clear concise methodology for taking care of your own finances, you need the Online Trading Academy and what they have to offer.”

Rick S., November 2006

“Throughout my entire career, I have taken continuing educational classes several times a year. This course was among the best organized, most valuable courses that I have ever taken. In two words - Absolutely Superb!”

Dr. Mark A., October 2006

“Wow, You would not believe how much information I received in just a few days. I am a beginner at trading, but my confidence level is so much better now that I have just completed only 3 days of my 7 day course. I can only just imagine what the remaining days will reveal. Just to be able to tap into the brain of such an experienced trader as Kevin Green and learn from his massive knowledge of the market. Thanks again, what a true blessing this is going to be, not just for me but for my family, for now I will be able train my children about the market and change our family's legacy.”

Dennis O., October 2006

“Feranado took technical analysis to the highest level I have ever seen. I've been to classes at several other trading companies and their education could be found in most books... but Fernando's ideas were fresh, ground breaking and made very good sense. I'm confident that Fernando's wisdom of the markets will benefit me for years to come.”

Brad E., October 2006

“Online Trading Academy classes have given me confidence and greater understanding of the markets after suffering a devastating loss due to no trading education. I am truly impressed with the instructors knowledge and understanding of individuals needs and train of thoughts towards the markets. We are truly fortunate to have Online Trading Academy within 1 hour of home.”

Robert M., October 2006

“I liked the hands on computer trading. The attitude is completely different from what you would get from any book, magazine, journal or TV newscast. The attitude of instilling good habits, discipline and attitudes in beginning traders is outstanding.”

Paul W., September 2006

“Coming in here with my wife (and questions - did we do the right thing, are we going to get our money's worth, can we really afford this) turned out to be the best. Of course, only time will tell but now if I fail it will be totally my fault because I was given the tools and the knowledge. Yes, we did the right thing. Yes, we got our money's worth. We couldn't afford not to take this course.”

Charles G., September 2006

“I highly recommend taking Fernando Gonzalez E-mini course not only for the strategies taught in class but most importantly the multiple time frame analysis with cross referencing other index markets to stay on the right side of the market.”

Edward P., August 2006

“Class was better than I could have asked. A world of information.”

Steve M., June 2006

“If you're serious about taking control of your money. If you're jaded by organizations that are obviously in the business of trying to take your money, if you want a legitimate primer on how you can see what your money could be doing, then call Online Trading Academy. They're the real deal.”
