options on s&p vs. options on s&p futures?

Quote from tyates:

We don't have a service, we're just presenting ideas. Everything on the site is free. But we've found that people who don't have a finance background aren't able to comprehend the concepts and really get into trouble when trying to implement the strategy.

Anyway, thanks for the feedback - if you would like to go through the site and provide your impressions, I'd really appreciate it. Maybe we will rewrite that part.

What's not to understand. The strategy is simply long the S&P500. Such a brilliant, simple, and elegant idea...except when it goes down, but I wouldn't worry about that.

Exactly.

Oh, but there's more:

"It is an investment strategy created for high-income professionals with a solid understanding of financial and investing concepts who want to make that first or second million within a decade. "

Well I'm both, but I doubt that this will get me the 100% returns you're suggesting (except with massive risk).
 
On the surface, the roll strategy appears almost silly to most, as it did to me.

After reading the book "Inside the House of Money", one of the macro managers interviewed Jim Leitner of Falcon Mngmt. and he is constantly on the lookout for strats that "real $$"(long only) funds look for. I think the roll is one of those strategies that global macro managers are looking for, congratulations.

It's all about earning risk premia for the long term. Fantastic.
