How interactive are your trading rooms?

Trading Advantage™ takes pride in the fact that our trading rooms are extremely interactive and filled with energy.

How long is your trading education course?

The length of the course varies. Some programs last 2 or 3 months, while others last a lifetime.

How much does your trading education course cost?

The cost of the course also varies depending on the length of the course.

How long does a trade take to complete?

Since the E-Mini S&P 500 is a very liquid market, trades tend to set up, execute, and complete rather quickly. Trades can last as little as 30 seconds or as long as several hours, depending on the set up, the context of the market, and the trend of the market.

Is Trading Advantage™ a scam?

With so many questionable companies out there pitching education and advice for traders it is very difficult to tell the trading scams and fraudulent companies from the genuine article. At Trading Advantage™ we have been educating traders for over a decade and have literally thousands of students to spread the word about the great things we do for traders. In fact we are so overwhelmed with positive experiences from our students that we have shared some of them with you on our Testimonials page. We are located at the Chicago Board of Trade Building and we encourage you to come see our operation in person and see for yourself that we are the real deal.

Where are your classes held?

At Trading Advantage™, we have 3 interactive online trading rooms. The Level 1 Virtual Trading Room, headed by Dan O'Brien, focuses on standalone trades using our tactical entry and exit techniques. The Level 2 Market Profile Room, headed by Patrick Assalone, focuses on Market Profile specific trades. Additionally, our trading classes take place in the evening in the Consistent Trading Classroom.
