"This experience has given me the confidence to actively pursue a second career as a trader. I look forward to increasing my knowledge level as I proceed to Pro Trader 2. I wish I'd taken this course 2 years ago before I started trading! I can highly recommend Online Trading Academy for teaching the "right way" to trade, limit risk and understand what's going on in the market. A crucial benefit is the ability to retake classes at no extra cost - there is a lot to learn. A great experience all round." Paul Kram

"I liked the fact that the course focuses on risk management. As a beginner trader my 2 concerns were 1) Losing money 2) When to execute a trade. The class, under the guise of risk management, eliminated those concerns. For the first time since finishing college, I have found something I am passionate about doing as a career. Online Trading Academy has given me the confidence to pursue trading full time. As a business school student in finance, my program does not teach trading at all. This is the only legitimate game on the street, and more business school students need to understand if they want to trade, Online Trading Academy is the way to go!" Greg Behrend

"It was an intense 7 days of learning. The skills I was taught will last a lifetime. Highly recommend it! Best to all who made it possible. Dr. Lou is awesome! So far so good on getting what I paid for, I truly feel that this is the best course by far. I now have the confidence that, after I complete the course, not only will I make money but I know that I will get back every penny I spent on the other courses I've taken in the past." Tony Ortiz

"This class has greatly influence the way that I trade and will trade. The techniques are very useful. Sal has a real nice easy going way about him." Gerard Reilly

"Class definitely gives you an edge to compete against the market makers. Live trading helps you to remember the things you were taught better. Lou has a great approach to teaching." Rudy Hruby

"I think the Power Trader I course is a must for anyone who wants to trade the market. Without this course you are trading blind or are forced to learn everything piecemeal which is very time consuming but doable. The best thing about a live course is the ability to ask questions and discuss your trading ideas. I think Dr. Stimmel is a very competant instructor who delivers the material in a way in which anyone can understand. The fact that he sat in a student seat once allows him to be very approachable. As far as the Academy as a whole, it has an educational feel and the staff doesn't try to sell its services. It's solely up to the student whether one would like to invest in oneself." Salvatore Palombizio

"I enjoyed the class very much, and I found it to be extremely helpful since I had little to no knowledge in trading. After taking just part 1 of the class, I felt that it gave me the tools necessary to being trading at an acceptable risk level and can see myself using these tools even far into the future as I become more experienced. Sal was a great instructor and he passed on a lot of prudent knowledge, and plans to us that allowed him to be successful." Edwin Lee

"Doctor Lou is a superb trainer. He is attentive and genuinely cares about the success of each student. He enjoys what he does and it comes through in his passion and energy in class. I took the class before and within the first week I made my tuition back on the first couple of trades. I have hit some obstacles in my trading and decided to take advantage of the free retakes. I am even more impressed with the school and Doc the second time around. Within the first day of class Doctor Lou shared with us strategies that will turn my trading around immediately. The fact that the instructor is a professional day trader who actually walks the walk instead of a professor who never traded in his/her life teaching theory, and then the opportunity to immediately put the strategies to use in live trading, Online Trading Academy rocks. This is by far the best bang for the buck when it comes to an education. Learning how to master trading (or investing if that is your goal) will improve your life more than any degree or formal education you may get...period!" Ezekiel Rahman

"Lou shows genuine interest in helping students learn. Not only does he knows the course material but is also an excellent teacher. Instructor is friendly and takes an interest in student's situations, creates a good atmosphere for learning, addresses each students questions adequately, and shares knowledge with entire class. I like the fact that he is able to share his personal trading experiences. The class opened eyes with insights about the stock movements, how to moderate my risks and allow me to develop some confidence in making trades. I recommend this stock trading class to all who wish to get started in trading or to improve their trading skills.”“ Rebeca Chan
