Andy Man
BACKGROUND
Andy was a civil engineer when he found Active Traders Academy and enrolled in their trading program. After several months of practicing on his demo account, he started trading with real money and never had a losing month since he started. After six months of successful trading, Andy decided to quit his job and trade full-time.
SUCCESS STORY
Early on, Andy decided to specialize in trading futures with a focus on Gold, Silver and Crude Oil. The futures were a 24 hour market and fit his schedule perfectly. In 2008, he bet heavily on Gold and profited handsomely when Gold went past $1,000/ounce.

"I signed up for the ATAs Trading Program in July 2007 after seeing Mike Sers presentation. The course was extremely informative, well prepared and fun. I cant think of a better way to fast track the learning of trading fundamentals, than to leverage Mikes experience of and enthusiasm for the markets. Active Traders Academy has given me the knowledge to pursue active trading with confidence, and I highly recommend them to any person that is looking for quality education to take their trading to the next level!"
- Victor H.
"As an experienced investor, I was intrigued by the different strategy in stock trading introduced through Active Trader's Academy. I found the trading program to be quite comprehensive, yet easy to absorb. The concepts are simple enough to be understood and applied to day trade stocks right away, although practice is recommended before trading with real money. Mike Ser's experiences gave me the confidence to know I can also achieve the success he has, if I applied the principles learned from the course. Day trading stocks can be nerve racking but with the Active Trader's Academy program, I feel I can make money yet avoid the pitfalls in a volatile market."
- Ernesto F.
"I had no knowledge or experience with trading the stock market prior to taking ATAs program. However, I knew that I wanted to work for myself and thought it was fascinating that I could make money by clicking on a few buttons. Because I didnt have a lot of money to play with, ATA taught me how to utilize leverage effectively."
