Great praise from recent grads:

My name is Jeff Kronenberg and I am from New York City. I am 29 years old and have been in the life insurance sales/financial planning business for the past 5 years. I was doing extremely well, but somewhere around the end of the 3rd year, I recognized that I was unhappy doing what I was doing and that money was never going to make me happy. In Jan. of 2008 I began a very hard, but very well fought battle to find my real passion. I never had any real exposure to the markets before, but for some reason, my intuition kept leading me toward trading. I am a very intuitive person, so I trusted what I was feeling, and started to gain more exposure to trading (mostly through reading books). I read a book about Jessie Livermore and I was fascinated, but in many ways it didn't seem right for me to go into a business where I was not utilizing the talents that I knew I already had (sales and relationship skills). Finally, at the beginning of May of this year, I was totally fed up with having absolutely no idea about what I wanted to do with my life. I started speaking to a friend of mine who actually lives in California and has been trading for many years. He sparked my intrests in trading even further, and then recommended a book to me called "Trading in the Zone", which just pushed me over the edge. That book is about the psychology of trading, and psychology has always been a fasicnation of mine and an area where I am very knowledgeable.

During that first week of May, I randomly (although everything happens for a reason) stumbled upon Online Trading Academy after another friend of mine, here in NYC, heard an ad on Bloomberg. I went to one of the trading workshops at the 42 Broadway campus and signed up for the Pro Trader 1 and 2 which began on May 13th. After the class was over I signed up for the BMA XLT. Now, keep in mind here, I had zero experience trading before this class. I mean, I knew next to nothing, especially about technical analysis.

I have completely fallen head over heels in love with trading. I have found my passion, and am SO happy, greatful, and thankful that I have discovered this fascinating field. I wanted to write this to you because I know that you are one of the founders, and would want some positive feedback. I am astounded with the level of service and education that I have gotten in a little over a month. I have immersed myself in the process of learning how to trade, and am working around the clock studying archived XLT's, listening to them live, and doing simulated trading. I am really getting this "stuff," and find myself going to sleep at night excited to wake up the next morning at 6 am, to start studying. I just wanted to thank you for helping to build this program. Without it I might still be on that search for my passion, which was not a lot of fun, especially for someone who is such an ambitious person.

Thanks again, and I hope to hear from you soon!

Jeff K, May 2009
