Q: Are there any discounts or MMA perks available to MMTA students? 

A: Yes! As an active MMTA Student, you will receive free entrance to our MMA Webinars (this does not include Options Webinars) during your time enrolled in MMTA (September 2025- May 2027). We also offer deep discounts to students on our MMA Subscriptions Reports, MMA Options Webinars, a well as our Books (does not apply to Forecast Books).

Q: Is there a limit for the number of students accepted into MMTA4? 

A: Yes, we will cap our enrollment at 50 students so that each student can be matched with a mentor and program advocate. We will be accepting students based on interviews and best fit for our program. Once 50 full time students are committed to one year or more, registration will close and no additional students will be accepted. This policy does not include former
students who wish to repeat the courses. Any former MMTA students wishing to repeat any course is very welcomed do so at rate of $300/course, or $500/course, if that course includes an Investment Retreat.

Q: I see most class sessions begin at 12PM ET on Saturday. I live in a different time zone and am unavailable at that time. Will the classes be recorded?

A: Yes! Many of our students live outside of America so we anticipated that not everyone could attend each class live. All classes are hosted virtually on Zoom and will be recorded. The video class recordings will be made available for all students on the Monday following each Saturday virtual class session.

Q: How long are virtual class sessions?

A: About 2-3 hours long every Saturday at 12PM ET, depending on the material being covered. Please visit our MMTA4 Program Schedule to learn more about class dates and times.
Every class session will have a virtual option and some classes during Courses two and eight will have in-person options as well.

Q: Are Exams and Research Projects mandatory?

A: No, they are optional but required for those wishing to attain MMTA certification of completion. If you are looking to go the certification route, there will be 7 Exams and 7 Research Projects you will need to complete and pass. 

Q: How many Courses are in MMTA4 versus Classes versus Lessons? How many hours total?

A: MMTA is a two-year PROGRAM consisting of 8 COURSES. Each course will have 5-8 CLASS sessions, where we will cover 1-3 LESSONS in each virtual class session, over 100 lessons total. Live Zoom class sessions take place for 2-3 hours on Saturdays at 12pm ET. Each course is given over a 5-8 week period, followed by a one-month break to complete an exam and research project. There will be a 2-3 month break for summer between years one and two. In all, there will be about 18 weekends/year in which these Zoom class sessions take place. This equates to about 90-100 HOURS total. Two courses will also be combined with an Investment Retreat at a destination location covering 4-5 days in person, with a virtual options for those who wish not to travel. The Investment Retreat classes will total about 20 hours of classroom presentations

Q: Where or how do we obtain price information for securities to conduct analysis? Is it mandatory?

A: Not mandatory but would likely be very inconvenient for students who do not have some sort of program to provide them with security price data. Here at MMA, we use Metastock. There are also other alternatives, such as stockcharts.com, tradingview, etc. A Metastock subscription is not included with your enrollment in the MMTA4 Program, however, for students who enroll in the program we do offer a significant discount on Metastock at the rate of $300/ year (Retail price is $595/ year).

Q: Is the FAR for Galactic Trader Software or Solar Fire Software mandatory for the course?

A: No, but it will be extremely helpful in terms of conducting additional research, not only during the course, but for any type of research pertaining to geocosmics after the course is finished. FAR for Galactic Trader EOD Software and Solar Fire Software are not included with your enrollment in the MMTA4 Program, however, for students who enroll in the program we do offer a significant discounts on FAR for Galactic Trader and Solar Fire at the rates of $1,050 and $250, respectively (Retail prices are $1,895 and $360).

Q: Does MMA assist in setting up trading accounts?

A: No, however, our work focuses not only on stock but on futures markets and ETFs. You will want to be sure that the company you choose offers futures trading. Some examples include Interactive Brokers, TD Ameritrade, or Charles Schwab. Charles Schwab may be ideal for beginners, as it offers their Thinkorswim platform, which provides free security data, and allows the user to place trades directly into the program.
