SGX Academy will be conducting a beginners course on futures trading tomorrow (9th April 2011) from 930am to 1230pm. The cost of the attending this event is $40 but if you are thinking of doing trading, it would be worth your while attending.
I have attended training sessions by the trainer YCK before and he always has a lot of practical examples of his real trades to share.
You will get much better value from this $40 than some of the other courses out there charging you few thousands dollars.
The event and registration link can be found here:
The website says deadline for registration is over but I understand SGX Academy can still take in more people (ideally before 2pm today so that they have time to prepare your notes).
If you are registering today, do follow up with a call to them at 63275438 (Operating Hours: 9.00am to 5.00pm) to confirm your place.
