WARNING! There are a lot of bad stories about OTA, my story is one of them. I subscribed to Strategic Trader - Trading Rooms, it was not worth it for me, so, when I canceled my subscription I had a service credit balance of $199.84. I asked them many times to refund it to me but they did not. First, on January 28 2023, they replied to my request and said "We will need to check into your request for a refund and get back to you early next week." After that they of course did not get back to me! Then I sent them many emails and each time they found an excuse to not refund my money, until now I get nothing from them. I will keep fighting until I get back my money. My message for anyone who wants to participate in any activities with OTA, don't if it will cost you ONE single dollar.
It was very informative, detailed, clear and concise. I loved how D.K. explained everything, with real life experiences, examples, and descriptions. His explanations of how to apply certain concepts in various situations, using graphs and drawings, were very easy for anyone to understand. D.K's teaching methods are top notch! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND GIVING HIM THE OPPORTUNITY TO TEACH YOU. Not only that, but the overall hospitality of the support staff was exceptional! They are receptive and understanding of each individual's needs and circumstances. The value you get from this academy's teachings, educational materials, and concepts are invaluable. This is my personal experience with OTA. -R.C. & E.D.
It was a great experience because I found a place where I could be educated step by step in the market.
My experience was very enjoyable. They greeted me with smiles and answered all my questions no matter how small or silly.
We need more time, perhaps extend the session to 90 minutes...
This session gave me a stronger confidence of what to look for in the following trading day.
Brock is a calming & soothing force in this unstable mess in the markets. His demeaner is so even keel. I appreciate his insight and it has definitely helped me as a newer OTA Trader. Dealing with the "humans" in the audience, real-time, with all different backgrounds and investing experience has to be tough, especially when you cannot look people in the eye. Brock does a great job managing his audience. Feel very fortunate to have him. Dave Stott-Ann Arbor, MI
Amazing explanations and reasonings for trade setups and what to avoid.
Great insight on the markets. I always learn something during each session.
He gives so much info. I really enjoy his classes.
I just wanted to take the time to congratulate OTA. My experience with OTA from my first contact onwards has been top notch. ALL of the team transmits two crucial things: 1) Trust and Confidence (you know what you talk about) 2) Passion (you care deeply about what you are doing). I mean this for every single member of OTA I have had the opportunity to have had some sort of encounter with. OTA Houston team is amazing! Once you get to be my age and have been through all the stuff I have been through in my career its really hard and extremely rare to really get excited about something. I am confident that this experience will be life changing for me. There will be a before and after. Thats what OTA has planted. Looking forward to my intense class schedule in April and already learning and simulating with the online material (really complete, easy to understand and extensive).
Great instructor, easy to understand.
I loved the content and presentation style of the instructor. The real world experience makes for a memorable experience.
It was a great experience very educating. Look forward.
The three days were all productive. The instructor was great, even though he went off schedule alot but, I learnt even when he went off schedule. The lunch and facilities were wonderful.The three days opened my eyes and demonstrated that your online trading rules really worked. I would certainly recommend tour services to others.
Amazing class! I would pay again just to sit through another very informative class!
There is a lot of information given and they Explain it very simply so anyone can understand & apply it
Derek was phenomenal! Thank you for not just regurgitating the pages in the book. Thanks for having lunch, that was unexpected and was perfect every day! Russ is an excellent easy to talk to manager / recruiter. Jenafer and Amon(sp?) were also very open an honest. You have a great crew and campus location in Chandler. The book materials were excellently done, error on page 100, quarterly expirations listed Oct, should be Sep. Look forward to all the online sessions and XLTs.
Very informative and exciting experience, the instructor made it interesting throughout the entire time.
ORIGINAL REVIEW:For a long while now, the OTA setups I've taken have either got stopped out or didn't trigger. I've had a massive drawdown using OTA setups and picks. I wished I saw a solution to this besides using a different approach than the one offered by OTA. The instructors for OTA are truly genuine, especially Tom Jenkins and Evan Morriset. UPDATED REVIEW: After trading for a while, I've come to realize that I could have learned everything Trading Academy teaches (about Futures) online for free. While I did enjoy their course, the exorbitant cost is a major regret. I do have "lifetime" access to their sessions which happen 3 times per week as well as their website. But I would gladly give it up for a partial prorated refund. The instructors are very nice, it's just the cost is egregious.
