San Jose, CA - Student Testimonials

"I have a lot of head knowledge when it comes to trading. But this class took it from being just head knowledge to it being actual hands on experience. After a short time, I can easily see how easy trading actually is. Anyone can do it. It's nothing like I imagined. A lot of the pressure has lifted. I can't wait to get started." Deb H., October 2008

"I'm so looking forward to the next classes, I can hardly wait! I come from a Stock Investor background, so learning about short-term trading is new (but relevant). My long term interest is learning about stock Options, and possibly Forex. Thanks SO much for a great teaching/learning environment." Lee M., October 2008

"As a new trader, I was really looking for a school that walked me through the process. I feel extremely confident that I understand the foundation of trading and can follow a process that will ensure the maximum success. The trainer and all of the support staff were extremely helpful, supportive and encouraging. I highly recommend Online Trading Academy." Judy B., October 2008

"This class is truly worth it. Everything from the course material, instructor and to the staff was all great. The value of this class is worth it and is the only place I truly learned the realm of stock trading. I don't think I'll ever regret taking this class. Finally, I see the light at the end of the tunnel." Mark Anthony L., October 2008

"Well, I think this is one of the best courses available, there is no marketing bluff. But you have to take the course to believe it. Also, it is worth every single penny, since otherwise you have no direction in your trading and will fail and lose lot of money. So why not take the course. Remember to learn swimming before you enter in the river." Nadeem K., October 2008

"I have taken, so far, two courses… part 1 and part 2. This combination was a most valuable experience. I would strongly advise anyone considering taking part 1 only to go ahead with the pair." Luis S., October 2008

"Online Trading Academy provides a professional, educational experience. The recourses provide an excellent foundation for the aspiring professional trader. Online Trading Academy’s instructors are educated, experienced and talented teachers. I highly recommend the course offered, regardless of experience level." Rob W., October 2008

"The Online Trading Academy classes provide the important information to become a successful trader. The staff is second to none. They provide you with great services and hospitality. The next step is for me to practice the knowledge gained to build the skills needed for consistent profitability." Jose M., September 2008

"Online Trading Academy training increased the level of my trading skills. It seems like I can take control of my trading plan with confidence. Mr. Roger is an excellent teacher who has taken me to a whole different level of discipline. I have no regrets about taking this class. Thanks Mr. Roger and not forgetting Online Trading Academy for giving us this opportunity." Pramendra N., September 2008

"This is one of the best educational experiences I’ve ever had. I have learned so much which exceeds my expectation. The instructor is extremely knowledgeable and answered every question very seriously, whether simple or complicated. The hands-on trading sessions are absolutely wonderful. My perspective of level-2 trading has been elevated to next level." Kent H., September 2008

"I spent almost a year looking for trading training programs that will meet the criteria I’m looking for. I attended a lot of introductory classes but they’re more focused on the platform they were selling… all I wanted is to “learn how to trade.” When I saw Online Trading Academy at the Money Show I knew this is what I really wanted and that this was a very good opportunity for me. And as a future trader, this is something I don’t want to miss. I can say this is the “most exciting education” I have ever had in my entire school life! A great start for a novice in the field like me… Start right… Trade right.. Make money right!" Mayen B., September 2008

"What I came for was how to put together a successful trading plan and how to identify opportunity and quality. I believe I have got that from the class and can now put together a successful trading plan." Alfred M., September 2008

"I think that Roger Best was one of the most thorough instructors I have EVER had the pleasure to be taught by. He was most courteous, complete in his explanations, answered every question that anyone had quite thoroughly and completely as he could. A scholar and a Gentleman as a teacher!! I found that he really cared about us starting out right and took great effort to help us get that point across to us." Harpreet S., September 2008

"I have attended several options seminars, some with 400 plus people in attendance. The small class size at Online Trading Academy allowed for a lot of interaction with the instructor and answered many questions about options trading that were still unanswered for me. The value and cost of the class was better than any of the other classes that I have attended. Our instructor, Russ Allen was simply outstanding!" Gary C., August 2008

"The knowledge and insight provided by Online Trading Academy far exceeds the price for this educational and hands-on experience. This Onlien Trading Academy course was well worth my investment! I expect my trading profits to pay for this course in minimum time. Thank you Online Trading Academy and let the profits roll in!" Joe G., August 2008

"This experience more than met my expectations. I thoroughly enjoyed this class and highly recommend it. Russ is very knowledgeable and communicates clearly. If this class doesn't help my trading, nothing will! Thanks for a great experience." Rodney E., August 2008

"I have taken the Pro-Trader Stock Trading course and the Options Trading course. Both instructors were among the very best presenters of the many I have listened to. If I fail to make money after taking these courses, it will be because I failed to practice what they have preached. I believe if you do what they say you have to make money." Bob A., August 2008

"Far superior to the approach taken by other organizations. This is an active seminar approach with large amounts of student participation, and real time examples are worked through and discussed. This brings home the basic concepts as well as exposing one to the nuances of various option strategies." Tom D., August 2008

"I only have to say one thing: Just take the class at any cost regardless of your time and knowledge level. You have Mr. Allen teaching in a level that is so unbelievable, his deep knowledge of material and his teaching method. And also you have David, who tells you the truth about his business. What he says it is absolute truth." Benis Y., August 2008

"For more than a year, I've been going to seminars, workshops, reading books on trading and finance and joining investment groups but all of these didn't help me much or didn't help me at all in acquiring knowledge and confidence in trading, especially the fear of entering a single trade. Attending this class helped me overcome this fear and I have acquired the knowledge that I was seeking. I'm leaving this class with more confidence." Rosana D ., August 2008

"This is my first retake of this class I took two months ago. I am really happy that I took it since it answered many questions I have encountered in trading since the first class and refreshed a lot of solid principles and concepts. The instructor was a very experienced trader and he patiently and in detail answered all my questions. The online trading gives a lot of practice and every student gets to see each other’s wins and losses with valuable analysis from the instructor after each online session. I believe I have learned even more this second time and may take a third time in the future." Anders W., August 2008

"Great class! It fits different experienced level traders. I am very happy with the class, the coach and the hard working staff." Irene S., August 2008

"This is a great program. Anyone who is serious into trading should take this class. The instructor is great and the interaction with fellow students has been very useful to exchange/share information/experience." Kong L., July 2008

"I have been investing for 30 years and trading short term for 3 years, our Online Trading Academy instructor pulled the last 30 years together to make a coherent process. I am confident I will improve my performance and recoup the training fee in 3 months." Thomas K., July 2008

"In the past 2½ years I have spent 50K trying to learn how to trade and be profitable. I wish I had discovered Online Trading Academy sooner. The instructor was fantastic and the material focused on the nuts and bolts of actual trading. I am looking forward to continuing my education with Online Trading Academy." Gary C ., July 2008

"Online Trading Academy is great! I learned techniques and analysis that I wished I had learned back when I first started to trade." Hung L ., July 2008

"I learned a lot from this course. I feel more confidence when I do the live trade with my own account. Once again, thanks Online Trading Academy Staff and Instructor Merlin Rothfeld." Vu N ., July 2008

"The best of best instructors... Excellence in teaching!!" Tony Y ., July 2008

"Super! The material, the instructor, Online Trading Academy is super!" Leih-Wuu W ., July 2008

"These 7 days I have spent here is one of the most inspiriting week I have in my life. Valuable information, eye opening, I benefited a lot from this class; also the instructor makes a lot of differences." Connie F., June 2008

"Truly Online Trading Academy has changed my trading life completely." Sylvia S ., June 2008

"First of all, I used my vacation money to be in this class. Everyday that I’m in this class is a blessing. It introduced me to a lot of trading terminologies/plans that I've been hearing from friends. My fear of executing a trade is lessening. With more practice of the procedure that Online Trading Academy provides I'm confident that all the fears will go away. I will review what I’ve learned from this class and will come back in August and have a more positive attitude toward trading." Rosana D., June 2008

"Worth every second and every penny to learn from real pros. This helped me to play the game with rules, boundaries and discipline. By far the best coaching program that I can recommend to anyone to minimize losses and dramatically increase chance of winnings. Personal thanks to Brandon Wendell for sharing his experience with a great passion. Thank you!" Safdar A., June 2008

"Online Trading Academy provides the students with an experience that truly promotes self-confidence and professionalism. I have taken other courses that do not measure up to Online Trading Academy. The monitored live trading provides an opportunity to better understand the trading platform as well as the technical tools. The course offers a safe and non-stressful environment to practice strategies covered in class. My total experience at Online Trading Academy was positive and invigorating. I highly recommend the program. The instructor is a practicing trader which gives credence to the information imparted. Thank you for the great opportunity you afforded me." Norman E ., June 2008

"Great class, especially the hands on experience to reinforce and practice what we learned… also the instructor's (Brandon) in-depth knowledge and anecdotes from his extensive experience was invaluable. The instructor is definitely passionate about us learning and becoming successful. I definitely gained a lot of knowledge about trading this week, and it was worth every penny spent (as well as in avoiding future big losses)." Dave G ., June 2008

"The “Professional trader” course is an eye opener for me and what I learned from it will undoubtedly change my life for good. I only wish I had known about it earlier as this would have saved me many thousands of dollars from trading/investing in the past 2 years. For anyone curious in trading, or contemplating trading, this course is a must since it will arm you with knowledge and skills to make BIG bucks in today’s volatile market." Andres W ., June 2008

"What a great experience it was to sit in a class and learn in a comfortable, open and casual atmosphere. All my questions were thoroughly answered to my satisfaction. And the 'Hands on Live Trading' was the best experience and training of all!! Invaluable!! I know I will trade better going forward. This class has changed the way we handle our trades, and has helped me learn to take profits and minimize our risk and loss. Again, invaluable. Thank you!! If you want to be a trader, this class will get up on your way." Kelli D., May 2008

"This is the best class I've attended by far in terms of the amount of information and clear presentation of the subject. I highly recommend anyone who is into trading or investing to attend this course. It is a first class service from the President on down to all the Staff and the Instructor." Romeo Q., May 2008

"I started this class with absolutely no knowledge in trading. I now feel 100% confident that I now can trade stocks for a profit and even make a living trading." Justin O., May 2008

"This program has helped me tremendously to clarify exit and entry points in a way that it is very beneficial. The Online Trading Academy method for trading is the best avenue for successful trading because it takes the guessing and gambling components out of trading." Nilda O., May 2008

"I thoroughly enjoy taking classes at Online Trading Academy. The venue is small classes, superb instruction, helpful instructors, freedom to make decisions (and errors), all while maximizing the learning process. I absolutely recommend any Online Trading Academy courses to anyone who truly wants to take control of their own destiny." Bill W., May 2008

"Anybody trading today without a proper education is gambling. Attending Online Trading Academy will take you away from gambling and teach you clear and easy ways to trade with knowledge and understanding from instructors with years of experience." Dan W., May 2008

"The Online Trading Academy really helped take my trading to the next level. By the fourth day of the Professional Trader class everything I had been studying for the previous year finally came together for the first time. It was like that feeling when you finally get up on a surf board and ride that wave for the first time. I cannot thank you enough… well done!!!" Shawn C., May 2008

"The Online Trading Academy approach to teaching trading is awesome as it moves you from the learning state to the doing state. The system of trading presented in the class focuses on the fundamentals of support resistance, trends and risk management with stop losses. This gives you the foundation to be a professional trader." Jose M., May 2008

"Since entering the class my attitude towards trading has improved dramatically. I have learned some valuable lessons about support and resistance, trends and the use of various indicators. The use of stops properly has been a good revelation (the ah ha principles certainly applies). I believe my trading plan is sound and if I follow the rules I anticipate excellent results. Good people in the class combined with an excellent instructor have made this a rewarding experience." Sheldon O., May 2008

"I would like to thank the Online Trading Academy staff for all their help and support. Everyone was very helpful. Online Trading Academy has broadened my opportunity in life. I know that I’m ahead of the game with the knowledge I’ve gained here, at Online Trading Academy. Most people I know, who are my age, don’t know much about the stock market. Online Trading Academy has opened my mind to a new level of understanding and I know it will take me a long way in my financial career. My life will never be the same." Ahmad K., April 2008

"I would like to thank you for the high energy, hands on, no nonsense trading class. I am an experienced Option Trader, with a winning track and didn’t think anyone had a class with the best interest of the students or this depth of knowledge. The hands on trading made all the difference in the world in bringing home the subject that was taught. I found the teacher to have incredible usable knowledge and depth of the subject. I can’t tell you how pleased I am with my results." John W ., April 2008

"Simply perfect. The school, the ambience, the teaching… everything perfect. This is something that you have definitely to do before starting trading." Jose B., April 2008

"If you are serious about learning how to trade in a professional, disciplined manner, then invest in yourself and your future by taking this immersion course. It's not just about the information; we all have access to information. It's about how to use it, and maybe even more importantly about how not to use it (paralysis from analysis). It has cost me a lot more than my tuition to get a seat in this course. It didn't have to be that way. If I would have known any better, I would have come to Online Trading Academy before I ever even opened a trading account. It would have been a lot less expensive and much more fun! Better late than never!" Harold S., March 2008

"The instructor was clearly an experienced trader and able to answer every question (even from the more seasoned traders in the class). The combination of lecture and hands-on trading made for a total experience that was worth every penny. The time spent on money management and a business trading plan was also extremely helpful. I have read many books on trading and have never felt comfortable putting the theory into practice. I now feel it will be possible to make a living as a trader." Glenda S., March 2008

"I enjoyed this class very much. I have been trading for about 10 years and have read a lot of books on options, technical analysis etc., this course provides me the view of a trader and the systematic way in trading seriously. I believe this course will help me in future trading." Grigory T., March 2008

"I started "trading" (losing money) 3 months ago. Soon I realized the way I was doing things would lead me to failure and big losses. I searched for trading schools (not many in the market) and found Online Trading Academy. Honestly I was a little skeptic about this class, but it just took ONE training day to realize the value of this program. I'm fully convinced I will succeed as a professional intra-day trader. I feel I'm "almost retiring" at age 38 with this kind of IDEAL JOB. Thanks Online Trading Academy for such a professional work!" Gabriel L., March 2008

"This class was a wonderful experience. I was able to learn how to integrate many of the trading tools into a useful working package. I am convinced that I will be a better trader due to the training I received in this class. The Instructor made a potentially dry subject interesting and relevant. Thanks for making this class available." Jim W., March 2008
