Getting educated the online way

摘要

One of the biggest challenges online traders have had to deal with is the availability of countless contracts and markets traded electronically, although this provides as many opportunities as it does confusion. The good thing is that electronic trading has brought with it electronic education, and many educational programs now deal specifically with online trading as opposed to general strategies and tools. MarketWise University, www.marketwise.com, which offers trading education, research and analysis, has recently changed its mission to include more electronic education-based material. The presenters show traders the tools of the trade through discussion and live market demonstration on several topics including The myths and realities of electronic trading, Live trading demonstration — real time, real money! and The risks involved in electronic trading and ways of protecting yourself. It's fair to say that this trend will only continue because traders are more interested than ever in understanding the dynamics of online trading.
