How much would you pay for professional trading classes?

Quote from diputs:


Ideally I would like to find a mentor. There is this company that is offering 8, three day trading classes, and 6 months time with a mentor, plus software, for $36,000. I do not believe you have to take all the classes, so costs can be lower. Some of the classes take place on the floor of the CBOE. (You probably can guess what the company is now. It is supposedly the only one that can do this)

Are you seriously considering this? Paying $36,000 for "professional trader classes" is a total waste of time and money. You would have to be a ten-pound-watermellon-headed-moron to spend that kind of money on "trader classes". For that amount of money, you can have a real education from an accredited university that might actually get you a job as a trader. Look at the masters programs at the Stuart Graduate School of Business. They have affiliations with every exchange in Chicago, along with plenty of institutions. To answer your question directly, I would not drop a penny in a tin can for so-called "professional trader classes".

Not a penny.

Trading is about self discovery. I can ask Electric about trading terms and definitions, but he never has tried to teach me to trade.

He would laugh and say its the blind leading the blind.

I think it is far better to encourage and to support traders in their quest. Insightful thought provoking events, are of most interest.

New people entering the world of trading are refreshing with their energy and enthusiasm. It is the more experienced traders that should let them run and try to guide them in the correct direction. Not that there is one way or anything like that...but there are clear dead-ends to steer clear from.

Riskarb and Buzz.

I, for one, would like to see this done. What's the big deal. Post the dough at a reputable FCM or broker, agree to a time window (duration, start, and end), and do it.

If you were paranoid about identity you could just pick a number for the account.

I like trading the spoos so would be great to see "made men" do their magic.
 
Shucks. Well I suppose I can get the "Pit Girls" to just mosey around the house naked for the day. They'll be disappointed though.
