Description of 100 Per Cent Return Options Trading Strategy
In The 100% Return Options Trading Strategy, Jon Schiller presents his personal master plan for realistically doubling your money every year in the options markets. Whether you are a small trader with only $5,000 to invest, or a large trader with $100,000 staked, Dr Schiller provides step-by-step instructions on how to gain a 100% return - annually!
Three distinctly different tactical options methods link up to form the 100% Return Options Trading Strategy. Two of the approaches - The Covered Short Spread and the Delta Strategy - can be used effectively by lesser capitalized traders, while the third - The Naked Short Spread - is limited to those with a larger bankroll. Importantly, all three approaches can be used independently of the others, and each offers unprecedented money doubling potential.
Options expert Jon Schiller gives you the exact signal-generating equations that comprise the heart of the 100% Return Options Trading Strategy then tells you precisely when to initiate or terminate positions as price action unfolds and expiration approaches. Also provided are explanations of the four market signals Jon Schiller finds most useful for predicting market direction - and for timing option trades.
Finally, Jon Schiller recommends the latest internet addresses which traders can use to supplement and enhance their potential.
