We wanted to let you know about some important changes at UK Trading Academy — changes that will genuinely improve the service we provide you, shaped directly by feedback we've heard from our own members.
We're retiring the daily webinar
Our daily live webinar is coming to an end. In its place, we're introducing:
Bi-weekly live training sessions — one hour, twice a month, covering market analysis, live Q&A, and trading insight from our team. These will be posted in the Members Announcements area of your student portal, so you can catch up whenever suits you.
Trade Opportunities — our new app, giving you real-time push notifications the moment our trading team places a trade on the company's accounts, along with the reasoning behind it. No more needing to be logged in for hours to catch what's happening — you'll get the same transparent view of our trading activity, delivered straight to your phone the moment it happens.
This is a direct response to what you've told us. Members have consistently said they don't have the time to sit through hours of live webinar every day, and that they'd rather get trade visibility the moment it happens than have to catch it live or miss it entirely. This change gives you exactly that — a more focused live session, and real-time alerts that fit around your life instead of demanding you build your day around ours.
We don't make this change lightly, and we know the daily webinar has been part of the experience for a long time — but we're confident this is a genuine improvement, not just a different format, and it's one built directly from your feedback.
Details on how to join the Trade Opportunities programme and app will be given once we have completed the IT work for this
What stays the same
Your course access, your modules, your exams, and your qualification path are unaffected by this change. This is purely about how you get live market updates and trade visibility — everything else continues exactly as it does now.
A note for students on our Aspire-accredited programmes
If you're currently studying towards an Aspire-accredited Certificate, Diploma, or MBA in Financial Trading, nothing changes for you — you remain on that programme exactly as enrolled, working towards your Aspire qualification. We're simply not accepting any new enrolments onto Aspire-accredited programmes going forward; existing students are unaffected.
If you have any questions about the new format, get in touch with our support team at [support email] — we're happy to help.
Thank you for being part of UK Trading Academy.

Company Update
Course: Trade Opportunities
description:
Hello students I just need to explain one critical item regarding the live stream for the coming days. Last thursday we had a power outage in the office complex we are in. Despite all efforts the supply did not return properly. The office owners had specialists in over the weekend and found the main supply cable to the building has failed and needs to be replaced to where the damage is underground which is a major job. This work has already started and they expect full power back sometime thursday afternoon. Therefore the live stream will not be operational for the coming days. I will brief you all again thursday afternoon when the picture should be a lot clearer. I apologise for the inconvenience but it is totally out of our hands.

Webex Screening Issue
Course: Trade Opportunities
description:
Good morning everyone, for those of you that were on at some point during the market update (hopefully not since the start) we had a screening issue on Webex. I’m not entirely sure whether or not it has been off since the start, or if it went off in the middle or end. I had to end the meeting and restart it and it is all running fine now. Due to this happening I’ll be going over everything again at 1:30PM Including the trade ideas I gave to see if they have panned out. Regards, Bailey UKTA Head Trader

Good morning all, there will be a slight delay turning on the stream today as I will be fixing the data stream problems on MT4, once this is done the stream will be on, expected to be around 9AM. From there we will immediately start the update. See you soon. Bailey UKTA Head Trader

Good morning all, the streaming computer is experiencing some problems right now, so if you are waiting for the stream to be turned on in the next few minutes it will be slightly later, between 8:45AM and 9AM. From there we will get straight into the market update. Everyone was a winner yesterday! Bailey UKTA Head Trader

Non-Farm Payroll
Course: MBA
description:
Good Morning all, as some of you may be aware it's Non-Farm Payroll tomorrow. This is the biggest macro-economic event in the forex markets, and markets on this day will behave unpredictably and chances are you will lose money. As a result of this the stream will not be on tomorrow, as we will not be trading and neither should you. We will be doing the stream today however, so I'll see you for the 9AM update in 35 minutes. Bailey UKTA Head Trader.
