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.

Great experience, great information
The vast majority of everything included is awesome. i.e. facility, people, accommodations, teachers .....
The only thing that hurt me a little was just the enormous amount of information that is jammed into that week. There were times I simply felt overwhelmed. BUT you have many resources available to me and I will try and use them as best I can.

Meeting touted on Facebook was a lie
I took the meeting touted on Facebook as teaching people all they need to know about trading. It was all a lie. They got us there to pitch the Trading Academy. I wasted my time. The picture shown on Facebook showed people sitting at a computer and I assumed trading. None of that happen. meeting was in Cerritos, CA.

We noticed your 1-star rating and were disappointed to see that you didn’t have a positive experience. After checking our records, we weren’t able to find you listed as a student with us. If you did attend a session or interacted with our team in any way, we’d appreciate the chance to learn more and understand what may have gone wrong.
