Educators

The following are 3rd party educators that use T4 and offer classes or tools to help you learn skills needed to trade successfully.

The Option Army

A Farmer Focused Options Trading Community. Education, News & Analysis from the Experts.

The Option Army was founded by Brian Wilson in 2023 after years of deliberating the best ways to address, what to Brian was, a clear and important problem as it related to Farmers.

Brian, a 35-year career trader, realized how complicated & inaccessible trading knowledge was in general, and how Farmers were not being given the appropriate help to hedge and manage the risk of their respective operations.

Brian decided it was time to launch his crusade and to create tools & share knowledge about options trade. What emerged is now The Option Army: A Farmer First options trading community. We are a growing and supportive community, learning everyday. His website to link to www.theoptionarmy.com

Topstep Trader

TopstepTrader is a scouting agency seeking futures trading talent to pair with interested equity partners. TopstepTrader uses the “Combine” to develop, educate, and recruit trading talent.

In the Combine we provide recruits with a live, real-time market simulator. A recruit’s trading performance is reviewed and evaluated by the TopstepTrader scout team as they progress through the four week Combine program. The scout team is seeking profitable, disciplined, and consistent traders. Pending successful completion of the Combine objective, the trader would be paired with an interested equity partner and would begin trading a fully funded trading account. No capital contribution required.

While in the training and Combine, recruits have access to Cunningham Trading System’s T4 trading and charting software, “TsT Live Squawk Radio” (broadcast daily from the S&P pit on the CBOT floor), interactive trader chat room, unlimited access to Trading Coaches, pre-market morning reports, and live market feed.
