Online Trading Academy Instructors

Joann Farley - E-Mini Instructor and Trader Mentor

While traveling the world I became fascinated with world finance, along with the similarities and differences in the psychology of people from all walks of life and nationalities. I found I could put this experience to use in the US Stock Market. I started actively trading my account in the late 90’s. I was fortunate enough to follow the advice of very successful career traders, and profited from the trend changes that took place in 2000. In 2002 I followed the lead from a fellow trader and took up trading the E-mini futures contacts and have never looked back on this great love affair!

My experience in teaching and my success as a trader have allowed me the financial freedom to become a teacher for Online Trading Academy as well as the following:

  • I have given lectures to college students.
  • I have worked as a stock research assistant for prominent private investors.
  • I have provided private mentoring online from my home in Colorado.
  • I have worked with trader/teachers in setting up online trading classrooms, for the purpose of live trading workshops.
  • I have been interviewed for published stock market technical analyses trading books.

Most importantly, I have worked with Online Trading Academy on the course design and layout for the E-mini futures trading classes, as well as teaching the classes. I look forward to meeting you when you attend a course at Online Trading Academy!

Thank You, Sud R.

"I had a pretty good day today using your well taught E-Mini trading techniques. I was in and out of the /nqz7 seven times - one contract at a time - for a profit of $950.00. Not bad! I used the stop outs on every
trade. Thanks again for a great Five Days!!!

Chuck C.

"Just wanted to thank you again for an outstanding class. Thanks to you all
my trades have either trailing stop or stop market orders. I don't panic as much and I am actually in trades a lot longer. You've made a positive difference for me."

Dwayne

"Joann was my first woman instructor. And I was happy about it. Women traders have a reputation for being much more disciplined then men. I was eager to learn from her. And she did fulfill my expectations. She is a fine teacher. Her rapport with the students was excellent. The fact that she herself is trading in E-minis established the necessary trust in her coursework immediately. E-minis are a new tool for me. Now at the end of this course I feel comfortable to trade E-minis with confidence - and this I think is the greatest compliment you can give a teacher."

Mario C., December 2006

"Joann is knowledgeable, flexible, and dedicated to the goal of the students learning. No question or comment by the student was treated as dumb. I appreciate what I learned and realize I must continue to learn by studying."

Ida B., October 2007

"Joann was truly a joy to be instructed by. She was patient and did a great job."

Rory B., March 2007
