Course Description
This is an intense 3-day Platform Immersion Course. It has been designed to give graduates of any of our Professional Trader courses a deeper insight into the utilization of state-of-the-art Trading Platforms. This is a “hands-on” learning experience. You will work on your own work station – creating your own layouts, tool combinations and getting deeper answers as you practice. This course does not cover trading techniques but will provide students a better understanding of how to execute the strategies and tactics learned in our other classes. You will learn to execute your trade “setup” automatically and set alerts to tell you “when” and “where.” This course will cover everything from organizing your desktop to the use of advanced charting and analysis tools. This course features Best of Breed, award winning platform. Please check with your local Center for which version is being offered. This course is a “must” to truly understand the deeper functions of any electronic trading interface.
We “tell” you how to do it. We will “show” you how to do it – then You Will Do It!
At the end of the course, we will show you how to email your new layouts to your home (webmail access required) so you have a working edition waiting for you to launch.
(Depending on scheduling, this program features live streaming data for trade scenarios.)
