BetterTrades is a stock and option education company that is founded on the idea that individuals can achieve financial freedom through trading the stock market. BetterTrades has a staff of experienced coaches ready to help speed the learning process. Unlike much of its competition, BetterTrades does not just offer a few classes on the subject, but an entire curriculum that covers the breadth and depth of potential strategies that could be used to profit from trading the market. Students have many choices of classes and classroom environments, from on-location seminars to online webinars. The company is focused on providing educational material in a manner that fits the preferences of its student body.

Once registered as a student of BetterTrades an individual is provided with a myriad of general and specialized classes related to stock and option trading. Registration is easily done by entering one's personal information into the My Account page at BetterTrades.com. After registration students have the ability to choose the strategy or instructor that fits their trading style or risk-return preferences.

Whether it is a class on obtaining a specialized trading skill or a more in-depth class on a particular strategy, each class is structured to be an interactive process between student and instructor. Instructors or coaches as they are referred to at BetterTrades, allow students to interact as they would in any other school environment. Trading classes provide students with the information necessary to apply the skills obtained in the classroom. To do this coaches provide instruction, examples that demonstrate the techniques being studied, and answer questions provided by students. In addition to classes on stocks, BetterTrades also provides option trading classes, which teaches the student the nuances of trading options and how it differs from stock investing.

In order to give students insight into the curriculum and the opportunities provided at BetterTrades, the company has created a litany of free trading classes. These free classes give students a preview of the instructor, his or her classroom environment, and the information that will be provided in the class that it was designed to showcase. Many of these free classes provide students with the basic information and skills that they will need to get the most out of the classes they decide to attend. Whether the classes are provided on-location with the coach present in the classroom, or online with all students connected through the internet, the information provided follows approved guidelines and focuses on the subject or strategy defined in the class descriptions provided.

In order to make classes as valuable and interesting as possible, coaches will often use historic trades and situations to underscore what students may potentially do and avoid in specific trading situations. Each coach is well versed in teaching any of the skills or strategies. Students that are disciplined and focused on learning receive a great deal of value from the trading classes provided by BetterTrades.
