Course Description
This 3 Day section is the first part of the total 7 Day Professional Trader Series. Most of our students take the entire 7 days consecutively, however, due to your scheduling needs, you may wish to take the 3 Day section and then a month later, continue the course to its finish with the 4 Day portion.
The objective of this 3-day class is to prepare active traders and investors to trade as Professional trading business people. We will teach you all aspects of the trading world using the latest tools and Direct Access Trading software. Learn to control your own order flow, learn to be a virtual Market Maker. Learn to trade with discipline, a plan and the technical tools that the Wall Street Pros use.
The complete series, Professional Trader Part 1 (3 Day Section) and the Professional Trader Part 2 (4 Day Section) comprise the 7 Day Signature Online Trading Academy Course. In its entirety, it creates the foundational information, stair casing into sophisticated trading concepts, strategies and tactics with a emphasis on Risk Management and Personal Discipline.
Each student will receive a binder with all class slides printed in color, with room to write notes. Also included are class handouts and any additional material the instructor provides for the course, so student can easily refer to all class material after the class.
"Let me echo some of the comments made in class yesterday about live trading. Although I enthusiastically enrolled in this class without knowing about this added benefit, having met you folks at Anaheim in August and taking an earlier class, it would be hard to overstate the importance of the added value of the opportunity to do live trading in class. Many of us who have come this far understand--intellectually--the importance, even dominance, of the psychologic aspect of trading.
However no matter how well trained we think we may be, nothing prepares us for that initial confrontation with our emotions in the grip of actual market battle. It's not that real money is being used (it's not even my money). Rather it is the undeniably uncomfortable realization that I am exposing myself (and all that that means) to that vast, mentally uncharted territory called The Market. However the opportunity to do so with the protection and guidance, psychologic as well as financial, of professional traders, who are on my side, made the experience significantly less intimidating.
It became exciting and fun, as well as educational; it was positively challenging instead of frustrating and confusing. On a personal note: although I had never done any trading before, I realized some time ago that I would have difficulty with "pulling the trigger." By having now been able to do so in such a supportive environment, not only am I better able to understand and prepared to deal with any hesitancy; I am eagerly looking forward to immediately continuing my trading practice at home. Thanks doesn't cover it. M."

"Knowledgeable teacher, great delivery, lots of examples. Have had some exposure to terms and concepts in my own reading, however the class provided lots of informative nuggets I would never have found in my library... thank you very much. Education has been gold thus far, looking forward to part 2."
Steven S., February 2008
"This course is the best educational experience for trading I have experienced thus far. There is no way to learn this valuable information on your own ... hundreds or even thousands of hours I have spent in frustration at home trying to learn have been turned around with 3 days of Online Trading Academy training and education. It will definitely take practice and time but I feel I am heading in the right direction and am abandoning all my bad habits in order to be successful. Brandon is a great teacher and I will definitely take his class again in the future."
February 2008
"Excellent course for learning about market behavior and for planning and safely executing trades. I believe that my trading will be very positively improved by the information I learned in this class. The instructor is an experienced trader who gladly shared his insights and experience with the class. He was able to teach to a class with mixed experience (novices as well as experienced traders) and to meet the needs of all the students. I highly recommend this class for new and for experienced day traders."
Dr. Charles O. G. June 2006

"If you're thinking of trading the market, it is very important you educate yourself before doing it and with this course, it over qualified my expectations... I see people that have no idea of day trading, to traders who have years of experience taking this class and learned a lot. Never stop learning...And best of all, the tuition you pay is reimbursed back."

"This class is like learning to ride a bicycle, once you do know how to, you shall never forget. Just read the course material as often as you can. Thanks a lot guys."
Ketan G.
"I didn't really know what to expect, but 2 hours into the first day, I felt a tremendous relief when I realized these guys really knew what they were talking about. I have immediately used the charting and trending techniques taught in class, changed my on-line broker so that I am now direct and today, my first day of trading after returning home, I've made 7 trades...5 winners and two very minor losers. My confidence has taken a huge leap. I'll be back to take the class again...what a bargain!"
D. Gardner, Pro Trader Plus, July 2004

Benjamin, May 2005
