Investing and Trading Program summary
This live virtual course combines Wall Street fundamentals with deeper investing and trading study. Students move from understanding markets and investment products to analysing stocks and managing a portfolio.
The teaching is practical: students research investments, interpret charts, place simulated trades and explore risk management through hands-on classes.
It suits motivated students exploring finance, economics or business who want structured instruction and a finance-focused extracurricular.
What is Investing & Trading Program?
The Investing & Trading Program is a live virtual course from Teach Me Wall Street. It introduces the stock market and Wall Street before moving into fundamental analysis, technical analysis, risk management and portfolio management.
Students learn through interactive instruction, stock research, simulated trades and portfolio work. Wall Street 101 provides the required foundation, followed by the more advanced Investing & Trading component.
Why Succeed highlights Investing and Trading Program
The two-part structure gives beginners a clear progression from market basics to active investment analysis.
Simulated trading and portfolio work turn finance concepts into practical decisions.
Two daily class-time options and catch-up recordings provide useful scheduling flexibility.
Small age-organised breakout groups complement the main live instruction.
The curriculum connects financial literacy with realistic study and career exploration.
Who is Investing and Trading Program for?
Best for
High school students who are curious about stocks, business or finance and want guided, practical experience analysing investments.
Not ideal if
You want a passive self-paced course, cannot attend on camera, or already have advanced market-analysis experience.
Is Investing and Trading Program worth it?
This programme can be worthwhile for a student who wants more than a general introduction to personal finance. Its strongest feature is the progression from market fundamentals into simulated trading, analysis and portfolio management.
The limitation is that the experience is concentrated and virtual, so its value depends on active attendance and participation. Families should compare the fee with other finance programmes and independent projects before deciding.
