What happened to Trading Academy?
In the mid-1990s direct access trading platforms made trading available to the average person for the first time. Trading Academy began as Newport exchange, a trading floor in Orange County California. Founder, Eyal Shahar, realized that too many people were entering the markets unprepared without proper education. In the late 1990s, Mr. Shahar introduced education onto the trading floor and over time recognized that as internet speeds increased and trading software became available at home, people did not need to go to a trading floor in order to trade for themselves. But people were still showing up. Mr. Shahar realized it was because of the unique and powerful education that people still saw tremendous value in the company’s offering and the company shifted its services to focus exclusively on financial education. From those humble beginnings Trading Academy has expanded it's centers around the world serving more than 70,000 students. Trading Academy delivers classes both in person and online to help people learn to invest and trade with confidence, like the pros.
