If I'm looking to trade full time is it smart to spend the money to take a trading course? The course I'm looking at cost $1800. To me that seems like alot of money that can be used for trading.Or is it best to learn from these threads and hands on trading? Any advice is welcomed.

Some people swear by training courses, but it seems the self-taught or mentored traders are the ones that last. I do not think that spending $1,800 will stop you from suffering through the same problems that most new traders experience. Many trading offices offer free/cheap training if you will open an account with them. I would recommend that first...

This is where elitetrader.com comes in. There is an online, advanced daytrading course for $199, that beats these $1500-2000 courses hands down. And once you register for it, you are entitled forever to his updates to the course, which he does at the rate of about one per month. Check it out, I'm sure you'll be glad you did. You'll make up the cost of the course with your first trade.

Good luck.
