The Genesis

Trading in Futures and Options  in the Capital Markets is not quite simple, though not very difficult. The intent of a Trader who trades in Futures and Options is to make huge profits with little investment. The important point is that the trader must always remember that Huge Gains are associated with Huge Risk as well. Formulation of trading strategies with proper risk management is therefore, very important for a trader.

However, most traders who take on the dual onus of teaching this subject, often project trading as a money-making machine and the student finds it too lucrative to resist. Often this subject is thought by people who are not qualified to teach.

The Void

Trading as a subject is generally not thought in colleges and universities and if at all it is a part of curriculum, it is thought as a pure academic subject and not from the perspective of trading in stock market. When people trade without proper strategy and risk management, probability of losses increase multifield. Lack of conceptual knowledge proves disastrous. There is a clear void in availability of structured courses and conceptual knowledge in this field.
