ITPM's founder
Who is Anton Kreil?
Anton Kreil is the founder of ITPM. Before moving into trading education he worked at Goldman Sachs, Lehman Brothers and JP Morgan, and he appeared in the BBC series Million Dollar Traders.
I have known Anton for more than a decade and consider him a friend. I have also taken all four ITPM courses. Read the full disclosure.
Why his experience matters
ITPM teaches trading as a portfolio process: understand the macro setting, select the instrument, size the position and manage the portfolio risk. That institutional emphasis is what first caught my attention, and it is what I value most in the courses.
It is also the closest thing I have seen in trading education to the way the institutional portfolios I worked on were actually run.
My view
Anton is direct and detailed, with a strong emphasis on applying the material. That practical approach is one of the reasons I would look at PTM first.
You can hear him before you spend anything. ITPM publishes free seminars, market commentary and student Q&A sessions on its YouTube channel.
Where to go next
The four reviews go through the syllabus of each course, the format ITPM publishes, and what I got out of it.
