Description
Once you’ve identified a partner (stock or ETF) and are ready to tie the knot, you’ll need to find a place to get married. In the stock market, these venues are called brokerage firms. Brokerage firms are more than happy to help you enter into a long-term relationship. If things aren’t working out, they are more than happy to help you exit the relationship. In this class, we’ll use Schwab’s Think or Swim Paper Money. This software simulates a live trading environment, allowing investors to practice buying and selling stocks without risking any of their personal funds. You will have $100,000 of paper money to practice and build a portfolio to see how you do.
You will learn:
• How to select a broker
• The different order types and when to use them
• How to set up and use the Think or Swim platform
• How to enter, exit, and adjust trades

Cancellations & Refund Policy:
-
Vernon Regional Adult Based and Continuing Education reserves the right to make necessary changes, including limiting course enrollment or canceling courses due to insufficient enrollment. If a course is canceled for this reason, registered students will be notified and fully refunded.
-
Class sessions may be rescheduled due to unforeseen school closures, COVID-related issues, inclement weather, or teacher absences. Refunds or credits will not be provided to students who are unable to attend rescheduled make-up classes.

Students assume all risk of changes in their personal schedules. Absence from the class does not reduce the cost of operating our programs, therefore there is no prorating of cost. For this reason student absence does not result in a refund, tuition credit or make-up session.
