Testimonials
"Having tried being a day trader, spread betting in the equities markets without much success I finally came to GTC. The amazing 3D software really helped me see what was happening in the market so my trading is much safer. I have traded successfully now for over 3 years and would recommend the course to anyone."

Our Training courses
Apprenticeship
Our flagship lasts for a minimum of 3 months. this consists of two months of learning to trade, with live trading taking place in the third and final month. Upon completion of the Apprenticeship, each trainee will be awarded a certificate of trading competence, along with a detailed P&L report that is generated from the trainee's trading activity. Successful trainees remain with the firm as self employed house traders.

This intensive one month course is suitable for individuals with some previous market knowledge (i.e. stock investing on own account, or financial spread betting). This option is also popular with those with sales trading, broking or trading experience in non proprietary form.
Exchange Derivatives Induction
This is a 2 week conversion course suitable for those with proprietary trading competence but seek practical knowledge and experience of electronic high frequency exchange trading.
