If you want to learn how to trade Options properly, you need to take Larry Jacobson's class at Trading Academy. He thoroughly breaks down each step for a clear understanding. Priceless knowledge.

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.

There is room for improvement
Nowadays you almost never respond to my inquiry emails when I have a question/inquiry. Gradually, almost all "great" instructors are gone! I miss many of them, to mention just one: Bashire.. You seldom make any efforts to improve your trading system, facing the changing markets.

Futures Retake Class
This is a review for the retake class. This is perfect for students that need extra help or a review. I didn’t want to go through the whole class again and the retake was a perfect balance of what I needed to know.

I would highly recommend Trading…
I would highly recommend Trading Academy. The instructors are very knowledgeable and seem excited to teach. For someone who is brand new to trading the information is very overwhelming. Our instructor Cameron was very patient and wanted to insure that we were comfortable with the information no matter how many times the same question was asked. I'm looking forward to continuing with Trading Academy and absorbing as much as I can to be successful at trading.

Great instruction
Great instruction, information, and direction. A lot of information to retain but you can work at your own pace. Instructor was Cameron/Joohong team. Both were easy to talk to and very pleasant.

Core class review
The class provided a clarifying review of the Core training. My suggestion is to complete the On Demand Core training first. Cam is an excellent instructor providing the key essentials information in a clear manner. Excellent Class all in all.

Great Class!
Took the 5 day Core Strategy class with Cameron and he’s very informative and patient with new students. Loved the snacks too each day! It’s a lot to learn but OTA really works with you to understand the concepts on every level. So even if you don’t get it the first time, you can retake the class as many times as needed.

I did not take any test to determine my qualifications
I did not take any test to determine my qualifications to be considered as learning the core strategy!!! What are you talking about??? I barely started watching the videos and the videos so far have only told me what I already know!!! I have not talked to one instructor or gotten any skills in trading!!! Why are you congratulating me on completing core strategy??? This makes me very uncomfortable and question the rest of the course!!! That I have not even begun to learn yet!!! What system are you using to qualify your students???

Relationships
one of the best things about TA courses is meeting new people that share similar goals and interests as you when it comes to investing. Also, meeting the instructors and absorbing all the knowledge they share with us.
I would've given TA a 5, but I wish they had a center a bit closer, perhaps in the Inland Empire as it is rather painful traveling two hour to and from the center.
