Hands On Learning in Capital Markets and Sales and Trading

Texas Trading Group is where UT Austin students learn to think like traders. Through market analysis, idea pitching, and community driven learning, we create a hands on introduction to capital markets that goes beyond the textbook.

What We Offer

From foundational concepts to live market discussions, we provide the tools and environment to learn how trading works in practice.

 

Structured learning

Build a strong foundation through a clear, step by step curriculum that breaks down how markets actually function. Each week focuses on practical concepts and tools you can apply immediately.

Simulated portfolio

Put ideas into action with a shared paper trading portfolio that mirrors real market decision making. Members experience the full process from research to execution to performance review.

Trade pitches

Practice turning analysis into action by presenting actionable trade ideas to the group. Learn how to structure a thesis, defend your reasoning, and think through risk and reward.

Expert insights
