If i paid money to take a online training for stock trading is it deductible?

[JulieR · Accepted solution]

It depends. If you are in the business of stock trading this training would be a deductible business expense. 

The training may qualify for an education credit if the provider is an eligible educational institution. This is a school offering higher education beyond high school. It is any college, university, trade school, or other post-secondary educational institution eligible to participate in a student aid program run by the U.S. Department of Education
