Great team,great education I am very pleased to took this education and recommend it to everyone who is looking forward to build a career in trading
Thank you
LAT offered an amazing experience, everyone is always there to answer any questions and share their knowledge for the financial markets. I would 100% recommend LAT. Thank you very much.
Not even debatable
You'd be silly to look any further these are the dons of the game. Paddy has gripped together a very educated team. Each tutor/mentor brings a different aspects to the table. Ali particularly with a very calm approach to reviewing trades and the market. Asanka support and resistance strengths really help you grasp the concept quickly. Marc responds to any simple questions or queries with such depth and knowledge of the market (I cant respect him he's a Chelsea fan) hahah. All of the tutors and mentors were outstanding with my time at LAT and I thank them all very much. They wont admit it but they'll be gutted to see me gone hahah. All the best fellas and thankyou
For personal use only & not institutional....
It is a great place to learn about financial market analysis but no use in the real world except if you are not investing your own money.
I did two webinars of Paddy and was inspired to join the academy but once I am in; I got Asanka as my tutor. If you ask him something simple while doing class, he answers ''why don't you ask Google these silly questions'' & he does this while having huge webinars and he will laugh at you. This is how he respects students who paid to LAT and not GOOGLE. Dear Asanka, with due respect '', if I would ask the question to google, why you are sending me a payment request?'' I have multiple emails as proof that I send to LAT regarding his behaviour.
The only reasons I continued is ALI and Marcelo, the best teachers in LAT. I had them most of the time and I have learned all from them what I know today. I am grateful to both of you and always will be.
Once you spend this crazy amount of money, either you are thinking to change the carrier that you are in love with or you have a huge investment on your own. I was trying to change my carrier and applied to tons of trading houses with LAT certificates, not a single house responded till today. I finished my LAT diploma in December 2020. Whatever I got it's because of my own connection and my crypto portfolio which I am holding since 2013.
This does not mean the course is trash, after doing this course I improved my trading skills and also long term decision making. It is a great course no questions asked.
If you are looking for improving your own trading, this is the right course for you but if you are thinking to switch your carrier thinking the certificate will give you a boost, you are WRONG.

Quality all the way
Having not come from a markets background i found the Trading Skills Course i completed online very comprehensive and thorough in both the theory and practical aspects. The daily webinars with Alistair, Asanka and Marc were invaluable along with the lectures and video's from Paddy. First class, lots of fun and would recommend.

I'm very glad I chose LAT for my training/learning on how to trade. The staff are all traders and were very genuine in advise, explanation of charts, Analyst and risk. The four week course was informative and encouraging. I would recommend this course to anyone interested in trading and the stock market. A good and safe place to learn.
Look no further, LAT is a top class Trading Acadamy.
Just completed an Applied Financial Trading course at LAT (Sept - Dec 2021). Without doubt, it exceeded my expectations. I knew the course outline looked good but it was even better than I expected. I started the journey here, reading these reviews and here I am writing a genuine one too.
The amount learned in such a short space of time is brilliant. I have completed a 3 year degree in the past, and this 3 month course is like confining everything you need to know over those 3 years into 3 months - the way it should be.
I can highly recommend the mentors/lecturers and admin team. They really know their stuff.
Thanks again! I really appreciate all the knowledge attained.
Excellent 12 weeks trade learning with practical experience
What a great experience to have. I didn't have a finance background, but students are encourage to research, get involved and ask questions.
Tutors are consistently encouraging students to learn, fail on practical trading experience and learn from it. Tutors/Mentors get you out of your comfort zone, so students can learn and gain further knowledge.
Highly recommend anyone looking to learn more about fundamentals, financial markets, learning how to conduct technical analysis in FX, Indices, Stocks etc.
You'll be rewarded with a wealth of experience combining theory and practical. This can easily be done online.
Advanced Trading Course - Highly Recommended!
I was recommended LAT by a friend. I completed the Advanced Trading Course and as I was going to do this all online, I decided on the Premium Plus training package (worth it!). The course is challenging but well structured. The tutors are all highly skilled and knowledgeable and they make the learning enjoyable. I have already recommended LAT to friends and family and cannot speak highly enough about them.
Fantastic experience
I took the 12 week online level 5 diploma course. Although it was challenging, it was enjoyable and highly worthwhile.
The tutors are very knowledgeable and enthusiastic.
I was lucky to get a scholarship, which provided a substantial discount.
I spent 5 days on campus in London. This was really useful and I wish I had attended earlier, but it wasn’t possible due to Covid.
I am now trading on a live account. I really enjoy trading and my life has taken on a new direction.
I have now signed up to the LAT crypto course, options course and equity course. I am super excited to continue learning and have recommended the course to family and friends.
Thank you so much to all the tutors and LAT staff!
LAT Level 5 Diploma is "Perfection"
The LAT Level 5 Diploma provides all you need to introduce yourself into the trading world. I started this course with a very little knowledge in the field but I didn't have any issue to understand the various steps of the course. All the tutors from the LAT have a great way to teach, they are always there to support you through your journey, sharing their experiences to help you achieve your goals. I am glad I decided to join LAT, I had a great experience and I definitely recommend the LAT Diploma for those who are searching online for the best trading course.
I do thank you all the tutors for their constant support and their daily hard work they all put in as this makes LAT an amazing learning experience.

Kept simple although taught by highly skilled professionals
It’s very well done and easy to follow. You’ll be guided through and helped to understand how the stock market works step by step. So kept simple even tough the tutors are highly skilled professionals; you’ll be being taught by the stock market genius. On the top of that they also are very emphatic and supportive: I came down with flu during the course and they let me have some more extra lessons to catch up. Highly recommended.
Theodoros Skliris - LAT Advanced Trading Course Review
Attending LAT was a most memorable experience for me! I did not only took a most important 1st step so as to acquire quite valuable knowledge of the global financial markets and how to trade every day in them. I was also able to start a long lasting relationship with an awesome amount of very friendly and interesting set of people! For these two equally important reasons I would recommend 100% to anyone with an interest in financial trading to check out what LAT can offer to them!
Excellent week learning how to trade…
Excellent week learning how to trade from the ground up in a structured academic setting. The tutors were really attentive, helpful and had a fountain of knowledge in an industry with so many opinions and techniques. The trading floor was relaxed, but also an efficient working environment. I am now considering to extend to the 4 weeks course. Highly recommended!
Awesome experience and people
The experience and atmosphere on the trading floor was amazing. The course is very well structured, between theory and practice, I could easily improve my trading skills. But the best part of this experience was the discussion with all the tutors. They are full of experience and always give me good and objective advice. I recommend LAT 100% for the quality of the courses but especially for the competence and the kindness of the tutors.
Excellent course
Excellent course, the tutor Chris was brilliant taught everything i need to know to begin options trading in easy understandable way, will be definitely doing another course with LAT
Introduction to Trading Course
Attended the Introduction to Trading Course in June. Very friendly and professional staff. They had worked in large Banks so had first hand knowledge. The course was everything you needed to know about how to trade on the Stock markets and Foreign exchange markets. There was a lot to learn but very necessary as it could lead to large losses if not careful. Any beginner who wants to trade, this course is the absolute minimum needed. Would defiantly consider the next course up after this. The place itself is easy to find, very comfortable and well equipped. The only thing that surprised me was the Demo account used was a Spreadbetting account not a Stock Exchange account. But to be fair you wouldn't know the difference. Overall an excellent course would highly recommend
Really supportive and productive environment
I really enjoyed this course, it was down to earth, realistic, and paced just right to be able to learn the concepts and apply them effectively. A really supportive and productive environment. Highly recommended.
LAT Diploma
Such a great course. It is a very flexible course that can be scheduled around work. Tutors were very supportive and engaging. Really has improved my skills and understanding of Trading.
I had a great experience with LAT
I had a great experience with LAT. When looking for education in trading it cna be very difficult to find a trustworthy company but LAT was exactly that.
