the difference between a typewriter and aword processor online was an improver ment over using the phone- to buy and sell stocks but direct access is even better she said direct access is where the future is rather than teach something thats outdated were teaching something thats better she likened online trading witha discount broker to fancy email where an electronic traders buy or sell order still has to routed through various stages before it can be consum mated in canada its not uncom mon to wait for hours to get con- firmation of a trade she said thats crazy it shouldnt take more than half an hour she iuustetecf the difference with direct access trading in which using one of the acade rays course computers she purchased the stockshe wanted at the price she wanted to pay she said such direct access trans actions take an average of 053 seconds to complete jamal said another advantage of direct access trading is it allows the trader to put a bid directly on the market in regular and online trad ing she explained the cost- of trading is not just the brokers commission but also the spread between the bidding price and the asking price housed to be you had no choice she said the

first class includ ed people with no knowledge of the stock market to others who had been trading for some time- from farmers to lawyers in our next course we havesomeone who delivers milk v- the advanced course is for access serioustraders the virtual monitoring- ser vice allows toclients to commu nicate either by text listening or talking with experienced professional traders who can offer tips and information to help them make decisions the boot camp course costs 3000 that includes break fast and lunch with a bailout clause were so confident about bur boot camp that we offer clients the chance to walk away after two days at no charge if they decide its not right for them said jamal students can also come back for a refresher at ho charge if there is room for them in the next course jamal said- the course is tai lored for canada only- to the extent that it uses canadian instead of us examples nortel instead of microsoft the general content is generic she said it doesnt matter where youre trading the online trading academy on woodbine avenue at denison offers its next course dec 27 its a -special- threeday course over the holiday period thats good for people who cant
