Developed in partnership with renowned NYSE trader Peter Tuchman and professional trader David Green!

This exclusive program goes far beyond theory. Students learn how real traders think, analyze markets, and make decisions under pressure—then apply those skills themselves.

Core trading fundamentals include:


  • Market vocabulary
  • Chart reading
  • Futures mechanics
  • The curriculum progresses into technical analysis, risk management, and proven trading strategies for any market condition.


Each participant household will receive access to an APEX Trader Funding evaluation account—a leading futures prop trading firm with a model built for newer traders. Rather than risk your own capital, you complete an evaluation and, if you pass, trade with APEX's money — keeping the profits.

Day Trading At UCLA & Michigan Offers A Unique Program For High School Students:

  • Expert Instruction from Real Wall Street Traders - Learn from guest speaker Wall Street traders bringing real-world insight and proven strategies.

  • Dynamic Structure - Explore fundamental trading concepts through lectures, case studies, and interactive workshops

  • Curated Experiences - This course creates an immersive environment where students develop the skills and confidence to excel as professional traders

  • Real Pathways - Gain access to the Wall Street Global Trading Academy online course and an APEX Trader Funding evaluation account for each household
