yeah the 7day course with OTA is $5k, theyll discount it if i purchase the forex course as well (also something I'd like to get into/learn more about) They do no promise that you will make money or get rich quick. But they do say they will help new traders with an overview of trading, risk management, etc etc so I think I'd rather learn about it first and give them my 5k than handing it over to the market. If anything, I'll hopefully be able to at least time my investment entry points better which over long haul will pay itself off BTW these can be considred training for business, so they can be deducted for taxes if you use an LLC for trading and they offer some sorta discounts with TradeStation where they will give you discounts on trades till the $5k is recooped. Think I should pull the trigger? I'm 85% sure I am...

Hey Guys, New to trading here as well (been investing for 4 years) have done some swing trades in the past couple months. I went to free workshop with OTA (Online Trading Academy) for their in office courses. I am debating signing up for their protrader (equities) 7 day intensive trading course as well as their 6-7 day FX Course. I have books on trading, reading up on tech analysis, need to learn better risk management techniques. I think it might be a good way to put together a lot of basics to get me started rather than spending 30 days putting the basics together for myself. Have you heard any good/bad things? I've been active on a thread regarding OTA on EliteTrader as well. The people that went did not seem to regret it, and when I was there I spoke to some people in the course and they said it was definitely worth it. If not help me become a good trader, at least help me in my investments. Might lock it in tomorrow...but def open to hear everyones opinions!
