What students are saying about Woody Johnson:
"Woody was outstanding and made the class very informative and enjoyable - this class greatly exceeded my expectations."
Richard B., June 2011
"It is fantastic to have Woody helping with the 'fear factor.' I am now earning my daily target of $300- $450. Before I was barely
at break even. I want to thank you so much for placing me on the path to financial freedom!!!! 23 months later, I truly believe I am on my way!"
Cathy M., June 2011
"Once again Dr. Woody, you capture the reader with exactly what you want them to feel with your very descriptive narrative. The
point you are making is crystal clear! I was in the very situation you described today, except short, and I wasn’t tempted to move my stop, but the
anxiety did rise, and I was disappointed to be eventually stopped out, though I did follow my plan and did not put on another trade. I hear Dr. Woody
talking to me a lot when I’m trading. Thanks!"
G.M., January 2011
"Dr. Woody was fantastic. I enjoyed learning from him, and the way he taught was great. What I really liked the most was that
despite Woody's PhD, he did not teach the class like it was an academic setting... which ironically made it even MORE educational because it was fun and
loose. He’s cool."
Loren, December 2010
"Dr. Johnson was an amazing instructor. I really liked his communication style and the wealth of knowledge he had. I think this
course is a MUST for anyone who is serious about trading. The meshing of the mental aspect and actual trading was very ‘artistic.’ It really impressed the
importance of being in the proper mental state to attain optimum trading."
Annie S., December 2010
"Woody Johnson is an outstanding instructor. He knows his subject material exceptionally well and he delivers it exceptionally
well. Online Trading Academy is to be commended for recognizing how important it was to bring Dr. Johnson on board and to offer this course work to
their students."
Harold G., June 2010
"I wanted to say how much I got out of your class. Thank you, thank you."
Mark D., June 2010
"Dr. Woody Johnson has given me a major missing link in my trading education. His class was excellent. 100% of
trading is mental. He gave us super tools to stay in the zone."
Ronald S., February 2010
"Woody has great enthusiasm delivering the content of this class and passes that enthusiasm on to his students.
He did a great job of involving everyone. I am once again excited about what the future can bring thanks to Woody!"
Carey M., January 2010
"Woody's class gives specific tools and techniques a trader can use in his/her daily trading routine. Not only does it apply to
trading but can also be used in other areas of your life. Woody addresses each person's concerns and communicates his techniques very clearly so that
each individual understands."
Ay B., January 2010
"Dr. Johnson was outstanding in showing the class in how to I.D. our subconscience issues and to peel back our layers. His
experience in trading helped a lot in his class material because he went through this process himself and delveloped this method for his own trading."
Kelly F., November 2009
"Dr Woody's knowledge about this and how it pertains to a trader is excellent. I have to admit, I was a bit skeptical about
this class but am extremely pleased that I spent this time with the good Doctor. He is a very caring man. Thank you."
Bob M., November 2009
"Dr. Woody is an excellent instructor. His passion for the market shows through his teachings. The tools and
techniques that we learn in class and continue to use in our everyday life are very helpful. Dr. Woody is very knowledgeable, and I am
confident that he is able to help me become a consistently profitable trader."
Melody M., October 2009
"Woody is really, really smart and a very good teacher. He knows his stuff and this class, along with the trading training is
by far the most beneficial as far as trading and life lessons."
Stephanie H., October 2009
"Dr. Woody was excellent! Although this class touches on quite possibly the most difficult aspect of trading, he was thorough
and patient with us. I feel that I've come out of this class with some new tools that make me a more efficient and more effective, and perhaps most
important, a more consistent trader! I would highly recommend this class!!"
