Suggestion for Option Courses (paid)

W

williamblake72

Hello,

I have an intermediate knowledge of options and I am looking for a course which can help to pass to the next level. In particular I am interested in practical courses which have tried and backtested strategies (on stocks, on futures, on indexes, whatever), no interest to theory anymore.
In particular I would like to learnsome vega positive (recurring calendars?) and / or gamma positive strategy.

I have found in internet about Simpler Trading and Navigation Trading.

- Do you have any feedback on the courses of these 2 issuers?
- Do you have any other suggestion of new issuers?

Many thanks

They probably are not good. If you can find one taught by someone trained at SIG that might be useful.

Thanks for sharing your toughts. Why are u saying that they are probably not good. I am not able to find reviews, nor negative nor positive. What is SIG? Thanks
 
I do not know them, nor do I have any faith in any program that teaches one strategy. It is my belief that you get a clear understanding of how options are valued and the structure of the market first. Then, unless you are a market maker or running a vol book, you start with an opinion on the direction of a stock or index. Then use your core understanding of options, current prices, market spreads and liquidity to use options to profit from your opinion. Or decide not to use them at all.

Cynicism. Sig has proven to have strong training program. If you can learn from someone who went through it ,good for you. Specifically, I said some trained at sig
 
Except for the most part, they are trained on Vol arb and in the off hours, poker. They use poker to train their interns and new hires logic and odds. Not much for a retail trader to profit from. I knew a lot of them from the Amex.

I believe there's someone here by the name of @ajacobson, who's like the head honcho for OIC. If he's not available, go grab a cup of coffee with @poopy.
