Course Description
If active trading (as opposed to investing) is not for you or if you do not wish to spend a great deal of time in front of a computer screen, then Active Investing is the answer.
Our Active Investor Course is a 2-Day course for the investors who want to have personal control over the dynamics of their financial portfolios. This course will apply specifically to U.S. equities but also answers a number of questions for most long term instruments.
The course is designed to Teach You to:
• Understand the True Market Place
• Design a Investment Plan that is Repeatable
• Find Stocks that are Worthwhile
• Develop Strategies and Tactics that are High Probability Successes
• Use "Real" Risk Management
• See Set-ups through a combination of Fundamental and Technical Analysis
• Execute your Plan with Professional Tools and Proper Order Routing
• Develop a Professional Discipline to allow You to Achieve your Goals
This course will take you through each and every step of developing and implementing an Active Investing Portfolio. This is a "hands-on" course where you will actually do the stock selections, do the disciplined screening, do the planning and setup the execution. This course will teach you "why" people like Warren Buffett, Peter Lynch, Sir John Templeton and others are rich beyond belief.

Testimonials
"I was very nervous after completing my protrading course - how was I going to be able to choose my long term investment? But after the active investor class I am so comfortable to find trades of opportunity."
Lyton N., May 2008
"The active investor course focuses on relatively timeless principles of investing that are applicable to a variety of trading strategies over time. I felt that since Online Trading Academy does not have investment instruments of its own, Online Trading Academy focuses entirely on providing this service solely for the benefit of the student. This is a rare quality to find among financial education and information services. After completing this course in conjunction with the broad market analysis course, I now feel I have a foundation for developing and maintaining the best overall investment portfolio that will meet my investment objectives."
Bill D., January 2008
"This Class is a must for all - novice like me, or expert such as others. It'll open your eyes."
Sylvia M., January 2007

"If you're serious about taking control of your money… if you're jaded by organizations that are obviously in the business of trying to take your money… if you want a legitimate primer on how you can see what your money could be doing, then call Online Trading Academy. They're the real deal."
Randy S., June 2006
