The very formation of Target Trading Academy gives foresight into why it is the premier trading education platform in the world.
The team at Target Trading Academy comes from all walks of life. While there are professional traders, there are also college professors, professional fighters, former military, and businessmen. The common theme among them all? They are the best at what they do. Regardless of their pedigree or background, they are the “best of the best.”
They also have a common vision: They had seen trading platforms taught and executed at various institutions, from global brokerage houses to education institutions. The method and the strategies taught seemed to always be to the best interest of the institution, not the trader or the student. They vowed to change this.
Taking the best practices learned, the team came together and formed Target Trading Academy.
The focus at Target Trading Academy is on the students and their experience. Being a successful trader is one thing, being able to teach someone to be a successful trader is entirely different.

With this concept in mind, the team completely reinvented the teaching methodology, creating a curriculum that taught a set of tools that could be replicated for success, as well as addressing the often forgotten aspects of successful trading, such as psychology and discipline. The curriculum was for a modernized, rule-based strategy and the associated tactics for Market Profile and Algorithmic trading.
The resulting program is the most comprehensive futures trading program available. With graduating levels of mastery, the program suitable for entry-level beginners just learning the market, as well as a “masterclass” for professional traders and those professionals managing portfolios.
By graduating from level to level, students are able to begin with the basics, learning simple entry and exit strategies on a live simulation, and move to more complex strategies for profiting more and risking less.
The core of all of the programs are real-time, online classrooms, looking at live markets and learning live, with instructors teaching throughout the day.

You initially learn on simulation traders against the market until you are comfortable trading live. As our classrooms work with live markets, many of our students, even professional traders, continue to stay in our classrooms throughout the trading day for the ongoing knowledge and discussions.
Students can prepare for the online classrooms by visiting the Foundation Library. The Library houses all of the knowledge of terminology, theory and baseline know-how needed to successfully trade, in a simple easy to understand blend of videos, graphic explanations, and reading material. The Library is also an important reference throughout the learning process to reinforce the already learned methods.
The Mentorship Programs are unique to Target Trading Academy altogether. It was developed to not only help students overcome their own personal struggles and master the methods, but also to develop their own personalized methods and strategy.
The Fly-Ins and Conventions are something completely unparalleled - the peak of the experience. Meet and trade with the instructors live, as well as meet your classmates in person - the same crew you chat with every day. Eat, drink and sleep trading for 48 hours - you will never see trading the same way again!
The result of all the work put into the program is amazing. Many students new to trading have become successful traders. Already-professional traders are now experiencing their most success, even after years of trading professionally before. The success of the students is truly the best selling point of the program.
