Argilaga Group, the owner of trading news website FXStreet, has launched a new trading education programme – the International Trading Institute (ITI).

The programme has been in the works for some time but the education provider’s website is now live and taking on prospective applicants.

The programme is quite different from those offered by other ‘education providers’, as it is structured like a master’s degree.

As a result, the entire course is, albeit on a part time basis, spread out over a year and a half.

The programme also has a ‘faculty’, which is currently made up of 10 different executives. This includes people like Steven Goldstein, who held trading roles at investment banks.

Potential applicants will have to pay €28,000 for the course, although ITI says that it will provide some scholarships to applicants.

The first cohort of ITI students will begin studying in September. Courses are focused on different facets of trading, such as psychology, market analysis, and trading strategies.
