Optionuniversity.com (Avoid at all costs)

So is all this an elaborate show to get us to buy OptionsUniversity rather than read some textbooks and comb through 888options website?


I'm so confused as to what is real and what isnt....all I know is that I LOVE options! :p

As far as the "junk" mail, there is a link on the bottom of every one which allows you to unsubscribe. I suggest you click on it to do away with the unwanted mail.

So basically, your company requests the client's email address, and then by default they habitually <b>abuse</b> this information until they're specifically told not to?

I see...

zxcv1fu,

Last I saw, I am the only one that Think or Swimm recommends for option education. They send many students my way and for a good reason. Just contact Steve Rathis, Don Kauffman, or Tom Sossnoff himself and ask. Doing a little resarch before making a comment can often help one avoid making potentially embarassing comments.

TOS is always very approachable & wants us to be better in option tradings. Their education are good & priced right. Most are free. They want to have long lasting customer base.

I have been taking many classes from TOS & have never heard any of them recommend anyone to take other's class. I know all three that you mentioned. They always only recommend us to take TOS education to be better option traders.

I was wondering about your post that they recommeded you since TOS has tons of option expert themselves. To be fair to you I contacted Tom.

This is his statement: TOS don’t recommend or endorse any third party vendor, either advisory or educational group (including OU).
 
this bears repeating ...

So basically they're liars as well as shills with a (very cheesy website).

Comes back to the old percentages and probabilities:

Their system yields 50% (at best) and their money is at risk, whereas they know they can get 100% (- what they pay to their inept marketing firm, salespeople, etc) from the newbies (I'm keep'in it nice) who buy their "system" in the hopes of getting the "shortterm course to long-term profitability".

Just won't happen, get ready to spend the next three years in the trenches (at least) ...

Best,

I ordered the Options University course last Thursday, and received it the next Tuesday (today). I was pleased with the speed of delivery, which was five days. Also, judging from the written materials and the CDs, someone has spent a very considerable amount of time creating this program. It looks very legitimate to me.
 
Ray Chong uses the same marketing group with Options University. They consistantly sending emails to promote each other. Some charge small amount & some charges thousands for their classes. Trading education is good business!

I just come back form a free 3 day classes that wants to sell thousands for more classes & product. The pitch is trading stocks & options is so easy & you can make tons of money. Setup is like Wade Cook & is trying to part newbies with their time & money. If their education is so good why the instructions are going to classes to make the commissions cut?
 
Interesting...so they all are under the same umbrella/Co? Or they just market their stuff with the same group?

The options guy was an actual options trader so there is some legitmacy there...Ray said he used to trade with a Canadian firm...most likely swift? (easy guess)..and he says he's not there anymore...guess there is more money selling a renamed version of the turtles system then actual trading.
 
Sign on to his free email; see what other education that he recommends. Find out anyone is good enough for your money & time in that email spam/marketing group.

Some in the group are interesting. I like Mark Crisp (momentun stock plays to create wealth, free charting software) & even bought Jens Clever's Mastertrader ebook (less than $100). Most are not of good value to me. You have to weed out the service.
