"Online Trading Academy Tampa Bay has a great team. I look forward to coming back again and again." Robert C., December 2009
"Having recently relocated from Dallas to Tampa, I was very familiar with Online Trading Academy Texas and the value of the training and relationships with the staff there, but it was a real pleasure to see that the Tampa, Florida location did not disappoint with regard to the level of value, courtesy, and knowledge that is a hallmark of Online Trading Academy, and the trust that I have in them as a reliable partner in my development as a professional trader. I should also note that I have referred family members to Online Trading Academy Tampa and they will be attending in the next couple months." Glenn J., December 2009
"Every time I take a class at Online Trading Academy I get more and more impressed." William B., November 2009
"Online Trading Academy staff at Tampa is very helpful and friendly. Thank you for all." Carl S., September 2009
"I totally enjoyed the class and was pleasantly surprised on how informative it was. I, for one, came away satisfied with the amount of money I paid for the class. I couldn't wait to see what was in store in the Forex 2 class. The best information was the ability to get a sense for how the market really worked and what to expect. I came to this class expecting to be shown the same ole same ole, but I have an excitement now that comes from understanding what is really going on behind the scenes of the market. I'm somewhat tight with my money, but I am glad to have paid what I did for this course. Money well spent." Doyce G., August 2009
"I am repeating this class for the 3rd time. It is one of those things in life that feels better every time you do it. And more, it keeps making me better at what I love to do. The instructors have exceeded my expectations every time. Thank you Online Trading Academy." J.B., August 2009
"This course was very educational and comprehensive. I wasted money with other instructors attempting to master the field and finally I found an institution that’s worth the money. My biggest regret is that I didn't find Online Trading Academy sooner!!!" Paul B., August 2009
"This class helps me see what mistakes I made and gives me the confidence that I CAN trade with the expectation of, slowly - but - surely, making good progress in trading." Josef T., July 2009
"It made me understand the most important rules of risk management, and how to be a better trader. Excellent." Jamal A., June 2009
"Online Trading Academy has the best trading classes period. It beats all the others far and away on everything; price, atmosphere, instructors, website and especially the hands-on experience. The opportunity to trade live, any plenty of it, makes Online Trading Academy top dog in trading education." Robert S., May 2009
"I enjoyed the trading class. It was very informative as well as hands on. All my questions were answered fully, which enable me to leap frog with my trading skills. Thank you." Cory B., May 2009

"The content, knowledge, professional nature and genuine interest in each student learning and succeeding was great. Online Trading Academy is the best instruction I have ever encountered with regard to trading, bar none. In my opinion, they also have the only realistic attitude toward the price of success in this field." David H., April 2009
"As a financial professional I have been trained to make long term plans and investing. The investments and the markets are not reviewed as often as necessary to protect the clients from severe losses. This class provided a discipline to change my thinking to assist my clients as well as other associates. It also will help me with my own portfolio." Michael U., March 2009
"Online Trading Academy has given me back some of the confidence that I was lacking in my trading. I feel like I am much better educated to trade successfully. I should have taken the Professional Trader classes months ago. Our instructor was top notch!" Gary V., February 2009
"This was a retake class. During this session I learned some new stuff and became more confident on other things. I'm really glad Online Trading Academy sent the invitation to view their program. It is really money well spent for a skill you can use for a lifetime." Wendy U., February 2009
2008
"This may be the best personal educational investment I've made. I'm not concerned about the economy since I can be equally successful in up or down markets. In the past, I always made my investment decisions based on fundamentals, now I realize the money is in the technicals. Thank you Rick and Online Trading Academy." Robert S., December 2008
"After working in the financial markets for over 27 years- this course really opened my eyes and took a big weight off my shoulders. Now I have the tools and the skills to earn a living my way. For anyone looking to supplement their income or make a good income I would highly recommend this class. Dreams do come true." Daryll R., December 2008
"Everything that was "advertized" was accurate. I've attended a few other trading courses, and none can compare with yours. Well done. I would strongly recommend your class." Bob T., November 2008
"Forceful presentation of material justified expense involved, cost of which seemed excessive initially. I am sure that completion of Part II will further justify the time and money." Joseph C., October 2008
"I have been trading on my own for 5 years and my biggest problem was being able to get in and out of the trades at the right time. This course taught me how to accomplish this in a consistent manner based on tried and true methods. Having a seasoned trader teach the course, adding a few war stories, really brings it all together.... Definitely a "teach them how to fish" methodology. Well worth the cost." Joseph S., October 2008
"The live setting that Online Trading Academy uses is a much better way to improve trading skills than simply looking at historical charts." Mike J., September 2008
"I have been trading for years but was still able to improve my knowledge and therefore my trades. I strongly recommend this course for all level of traders." Lee T., September 2008
"This was well worth my time and money. Very happy with instructor and coverage of material. I finally understand stops and am not afraid!!!! Would recommend Rick and Online Trading Academy to anyone interested in trading. Thank you." Linda L., June 2008
"I thought I knew something about the stock market. After taking the course, I realize I was quite uninformed. I wish I had taken the course years ago." Don M., May 2008
"Just when I thought I knew almost everything about stock trading, Online Trading Academy showed me how little I actually knew and how much I needed to learn more than what I knew. I commuted 150 per day for the course, and I my only regret is that I didn't do it sooner. This course is a must for any wanna-be, beginner or intermediate level stock trader." Marvin H., May 2008
"Money well spent. It focused everything into a coherent structured and disciplined trading strategy. It made all the info that I knew come to light in a very sensible manner." Jay B., April 2008
2007
"A training environment where there is a live, knowledgeable, relaxed instructor, with current information, techniques and experience cannot be OVER EMPHASIZED!!!! I'd recommend this course to anyone, rookie or experienced trader. It's such a GREAT VALUE with the lifetime retake opportunity." Terrance S., November 2007
"I have been trading for a little over a year with very poor results. After the third day with the online trading instructor my whole outlook at trading is different, much more positive." Ray H., November 2007
"I have certainly enjoyed every aspect of the learning experience at Online Trading Academy courses. The training is superb, the facilities are great, and the knowledgeable instructors can't be beat. Thanks." Billy M., October 2007
"When you write out a check for the amount the class costs you start getting nervous. There are so many rip-offs out there. I started second guessing myself almost right away...But when I got into the class and saw the facilities and got to know the instructor I realized I had made the right decision. In fact I gladly wrote out the second check for the next class because I knew I would continue to learn more. Thanks for the first part." Cooper Y., October 2007
