Course overview
The LAT Summer Trading School Programme has been designed for school and university students looking for a more vocational approach to finance and trading. Based online, on the LAT trading floor or via a blended combination, students will learn about different financial markets, how they are traded, and the practicalities of trading from a fundamental or technical perspective. The programme looks at a day in the life of a trader, examining both fundamental and technical analysis and evaluation of macroeconomic data.
We also discuss trading psychology and investigate the huge effects this can have on trading performance. Students will be given a £50,000 demo trading account to practise their new skills under the watchful eyes of our team of experienced traders and mentors.
