How do we maintain such impressive performance?
As you might know, a half of a market trading volume is generated by computer programs run by large traders. We trace these algorithms by exploring technical charts, digging into fundamentals, "NASDAQ Level 2" data and news tapes. It makes easier to identify  largest traders,  market plays being performed, etc. Such reverse-engineering really helps to pinpoint patterns of program trading algorithms. We ride these short-term trends, i.e. front run a bit. Early in. Early out. One can just buy and hold, but this is not for us. We are here to deliver quick profits!

DISCLAIMER ABOUT OUR PUBLISHED TRACK RECORD

It is important that you fully understand how Optionsmart autotrading service works.

The service INCLUDES:
1. Optionsmart sends email alerts to your broker.
2. Optionsmart allows your broker to link their auto-trading mechanism to your brokerage account.
3. Optionsmart provides you with monthly statements and analysis from our Control Accounts at e-Option.


The service DOES NOT INCLUDE:
1. Actual execution of our alerts (this is a service provided by your broker).
2. Any activities within your brokerage account (they are performed by you and your broker, we have no access to your account).
3. Any guarantees that the entry and exit prices on your account statement will be similar to the prices from our Control Accounts. (The execution of our alerts is done by your broker, we have no control over it. Even if your account is also with eOption, the actual execution prices may vary).


A trade, in relation to spreads, is a total of spreads and related roll over operations. Trade entry date: date when an initial position was opened. Trade exit date: date when all open positions were finally closed. Trade profitability is calculated as ratio of the trade’s total credits over total debits. An up-to-date list of open positions is available to all subscribers on the product pages.

Brokers often execute same auto-trading signals differently. We reserve a right to create a separate trade in our trade record in cases like these. It is also quite possible that the same broker executes the same signal differently for two different subscribers. Therefore your performance will inadvertently vary from Site’s official track record and any model portfolio that may be derived from this track record. Additionally, the performance of your individual trades will vary from site’s official track record in case you set allocations other then recommended by site; if you link site’s autotrading signals to an account that holds other securities; conduct trading activity with the account other than through site’s autotrading signals; or cancel the service before trades are closed.


The "QQQ Enhanced", has been launched in 2009, as a further development of our "QQQ Picks".  

What is included?

  • Trading entry/exit email alerts.
  • Daily QQQ Enhanced Morning Updates.
  • Auto-trading with major option brokerages.

How does it work?

  1. You obtain a brokerage account with one of brokerages: (A) review the relevant terms and conditions, and make sure you fully understand all advantages and limitations offered by this particular brokerage, (B) make sure that the broker can accept orders to buy, roll, and sell option spreads, (C) sign up for an account.
  2. You subscribe to our QQQ Enhanced below.
  3. You configure your auto-trading settings. You will find our current allocation recommendations and open positions on the member page.
  4. We authorize your auto-trading and start sending trading alerts to you and your broker.
  5. Your broker executes our trading alerts on a best-effort basis.

All our subscribers have different levels of risk tolerance. You should decide how much of your capital you are ready to put at risk.   

Key advantage of our “QQQ Enhanced” service: You can keep your principal capital out of any risk while enjoying a nice return on your entire portfolio. Even the diversified portfolio of well-established stocks can't guarantee that!  Your “low-risk sub-portfolio” can be left on your brokerage account or, if you prefer, somewhere outside. There is only one technical condition. You should be ready to use a part of of your 'low-risk sub-portfolio" as a reserve for your trading account.

TOP FIVE REASONS TO PREFER DEBIT SPREADS AS A TRADING VEHICLE
  • You can lower your risk and reduce your capital outlay by paying a small upfront premium instead of purchasing an option or an underlying stock.
  • You can manage the risk and reward characteristics by choosing between many strikes and expiration dates.
  • You do not need a quick move in the underlying stock with this strategy, as you would with the straight purchase of a call or put option. The reason for this is that you are off-setting the time premium in the option you purchased with the time premium you sold, thereby avoiding a situation in which time decay is a major risk.
  • You benefit because falling commission costs make spreads more attractive for small investors.
  • No margin requirements ever. We use debit spreads. It automatically provides for "IRA eligible" trades.



Options involve risk and are not suitable for all investors. Click here to review the Characteristics and Risks of Standardized Options brochure before you begin trading options. Options investors may lose the entire amount of their investment in a relatively short period of time.

Online trading has inherent risk due to system response and access times that may vary due to market conditions, system performance, and other factors. An investor should understand these and additional risks before trading.
