Question: Is the program comprehensive?
Answer: This program is very comprehensive. You’ll be getting a total of 11 Modules in the course and each Module contains several ‘hands-on’ videos walking you through the topics covered. In total, the course includes more than 40 videos (over 24 hours of teaching), plus 60 bonus videos.
Question: How is the course delivered to me?
Answer: The Options Made Easy – Your Video Guide to Trading as a Business is a 100% digitally delivered training program designed so that you watch and learn the materials on your home computer, at your own convenience.
We use videos because you can see exactly what to do as you learn and you can watch them over and over again to review and build your understanding.
After enrollment, you will immediately receive by email a course syllabus that is in PDF format. The syllabus contains the course outline and will enable you, when connected to the internet, to click on hyperlinks in the syllabus so that you can download individual video files directly to your home computer.
All the course files are archived files (zipped files so that the file sizes are smaller) and are stored in this manner to save you time when you download the files.
Question: What are the video formats that I am downloading and are they of good quality?
Answer: You will have two video file formats to choose from when downloading the files from the course syllabus. Each video file is available in either Microsoft Media Player file format or Apple QuickTime file format. You choose your preference, but know that both versions are very high quality.
Question: Are there any restrictions with regards to the videos that I download?
Answer: Yes, there are. The video course that you are about to purchase is VERY valuable. You will understand the value once you have delved into the content. I can assure you that if you learn all the concepts and implement what you learn you will be writing me in the future thanking me for sharing such important information.
Here are the restrictions: you may make one copy of these videos on a storage device (CD, DVD or external drive) but may not allow anyone else to view copy or share them. They are for your use only.
Question: How can I tell if I am the right kind of person that would be successful with this course?
Answer: Anyone can be successful at trading options as a business – there are no prerequisites. However, in my experience what I have noticed is that proactive and inquisitive people do best at mastering the materials. Also, it matters little what your previous experience is. What matters is that you keep the goal in mind and do the work and studying required to learn a new skill.
It’s true that I’m partial on the subject, but I have seen people that knew absolutely nothing about trading that became full out experts within a year’s time. I know for many people that seems like a long period of time, but when I say this person knew nothing… I mean they knew nothing. And I am so proud of this person because I think their motivation to learn this skill was very inspiring. In fact, I’ll let you know what this person did… They actually listened to the videos and transcribed each video sentence by sentence and then rewrote the entire series in their own words… In fact, what they ended up doing was creating their own personal trading as a business textbook. And, don’t ask… I know he would not share this with anyone and what he would tell you to do it to do the work yourself – I agree.
In any event, let me tell you the kind of people that have recently enrolled…
- Individuals that have been in the market as an investor and have been disappointed with their results
- People that have stayed away from the markets because they believed that the markets were too risky
- People that have been confused by technical analysis and fundamental analysis because they couldn’t make them work for them
- People that don’t like to guess which direction the markets are going in
- People that like the idea of reconstructing their trading based on a professional approach… that is trading as a business.
- People that like the idea of managing their trading business “by the numbers”
- People that like the idea of trading stocks and options as a real business
- People that like the idea of working from home while earning retirement-style monthly profits in a business that takes you about 15 minutes a day to manage
Question: How did you discover how to structure your stock and options trading as a business?
Answer: In actuality it discovered me, mainly because I kept looking for a better way to structure my trading activities in a more organized and profitable manner. Fortunately, because of the business I am in, I was introduced to David who enlightened me to the concept of trading as a business.
But, to answer this question more fully… I had actually asked David this same question and he told me that years ago he had a ‘hit or miss’ trading style and it bothered him to no end. He said he started thinking about trading as a real business… and for about 2 1/2 years he spent countless hours researching and developing strategies to buy and sell stocks and options as a ‘business’.
He said, at first he wasn’t sure if it could be done, but the idea intrigued him. He thought to himself that somebody, somewhere was making a killing in the markets and he was determined to find them, learn everything they know and make a killing of his own. According to David, this was a Herculean task finding the right people that were willing to talk about what they knew and that the most difficult part was that none of these traders were teachers in any sense of the word so it was nearly impossible to get full details about their strategies. In the end he said it all came together like a puzzle that finally became recognizable because enough of the pieces were placed in the correct positions.
Question: Are there other ways besides trading as a business to structure your trading to stay consistently profitable?
Answer: The only way to be consistently profitable, and I mean really profitable as an investor is to run your trading as a business, not as a gambler, and that means looking at opportunities, supply and demand, marketplace dynamics and managing your businesses based on solid business fundamentals: profit, loss, expenses, overhead and return on investment.
Like any business your only concern is to buy something that you can sell at a profit – and with enough of a profit margin so that your expenses (although small) are covered leaving you with consistent and reliable income.
Question: Isn’t the only way to make money in the markets to figure out how to predict market direction?
Answer: At one time I thought this was true, but contrary to popular belief, even among some so-called market experts, it is not possible to predict market direction. Let’s face it; the markets go up one day and down the next! What we know is that prices will fluctuate and that options expire… that’s it.
Question: How much can you make and how much money do I need to start trading as a business?
Answer: These are important questions…
How much you can make is dependent on your capital, ability to learn and your ability to maintain your discipline in this business.
With regards to starting capitol…don’t be concerned about how much start-up money you think you need to have in order to start your trading business… learn the skills, paper trade, invest a small amount and then reinvest your profits. Do it this way and your trading account will grow VERY quickly.
Also, you should know this… even though I had a considerable amounts of money I could invest in my trading businesses when I first learned how to trade in this way from David, I started with less than $5000 so I could learn this business and the result was my trading accounts grew… and so will yours if you learn to trade with confidence.
Question: Can you tell me about your background and David’s background?
Answer: Sure… Both of us have been teaching, consulting and publishing for many years. Here’s a brief 3rd person overview about us…
David Vallieres has been teaching people how to use the Internet to start successful businesses for over ten years and has taught thousands of people from every country in the world how to make their living online. He is a successful publisher and is regularly interviewed by marketers and business professionals about his business experiences and insights. But, most importantly, Dave is a full-time options trader and a master mentor. David has incredible insight on market sentiment — he is able to cut through the chatter and nonsense that is so often presented by so-called market experts to the average retail investor and is able to seek out profitable trades on a consistent basis.
William Piracci has been a teacher, educational consultant and international project manager for nearly two decades. He has worked extensively for Government Ministries in the Middle East and Southeast Asia — assisting professional educators on how to develop education programs that meet project objectives. William also owns a successful publishing company that develops and promotes ideas that assist people in attaining personal and financial sovereignty. He is the developer of the Options Lexis learning software application that enables users to quickly and accurately learn the language of options trading. William is an avid options trader and is the managing director of Trading Options Lab.
Question: Why is the course so inexpensive and why are you selling this knowledge to other people?
Answer: It’s funny, but your first question may be the most often asked question I receive!
There are several reasons why the course is currently priced so reasonably and in fact, the course prior to it being completed was being sold for more than 9 times its current price! Our pricing structure for the core materials, that is the “Options Made Easy – Your Video Guide to Trading as a Business” course, fluctuates depending on the amount of work (time) that is required to keep the materials updated and the delivery systems at peak efficiency. Currently we have pretty much automated the entire system which is to your advantage as we are able to keep the cost of the core materials at a very low price. But be aware of something… in my opinion the core course is valued at least $5000.00 USD and I base this on value for dollar. Simply, learn this skill and you will possess a means to consistently earn more than 99% of humans on the face of this earth.
With regards to your second question… why are we selling this system, this knowledge to other people? The answers are simple:
Firstly, there’s no reason not to… here’s why:
The markets are huge and worldwide, and anyone can trade them without decreasing the opportunity, in fact it would only make things better. The more traders, the more money we can make and the more liquid the market becomes. It’s really a win-win-win because unlike other businesses… this business only gets better as more people do it.
Secondly, although we are entrepreneurs we are also teachers.
As I described when I answered another question, both David and I have been teaching, consulting and publishing for many years. The truth is, we have taught thousands of people how to learn and integrate knowledge into their daily lives, so teaching is something we love to do. And this is to your benefit because it’s a fact that there are not many people who really understand the options trading business that are willing to teach it to others.
And lastly, it’s as simple as this… the more money we make selling access to our course the more we can put profits to good use in our own trading businesses. Obviously we put our money where we get the largest return for the amount invested and this means that the King’s portion of money we make from selling this course goes directly into our trading businesses.
Question: Can I learn what you’re teaching on my own?
Answer: Well, of course! But I can assure you that you that it will take you forever and a day to network with the correct people that will be able to give you the information that you will have immediate access to after enrolling in our course. Why waste your time wading through unproven systems?
Question: Why do you recommend the ThinkorSwim platform for implementing and trading like your course teaches?
Answer: This topic is covered very thoroughly in the course, but suffice to say that the ThinkorSwim platform allows us to inexpensively put on, monitor and adjust our trades in a professional and businesslike manner. In short, this platform allows us to manage our business by the numbers.
Question: Do you give financial advice – will you help me with my trading?
Answer: No to both questions. I am a retail investor. David is a retail investor. Unlike many people who teach options and stocks, we are not former market makers or specialists or licensed professionals in the financial industry. We are retail investors just like you who found a way to make consistent monthly profits through trading stocks and options as a real business from our home offices.
We cannot give you specific investment advice because we are not investment advisers registered with the SEC and we are not CFPs (certified financial planners) so if you watch the videos and you see Dave trading one ETF or stock, do not think that is a recommendation. What’s appropriate for us may not be for you.
So we can teach you what we know, the actual decisions you make with your money is up to only one person: You.
Question: How long will it take me to learn this system?
Answer: Your understanding and ability to implement the ideas and strategies that are presented in the core materials is directly proportional to the time, effort and desire that you have to learn the materials.
Let me put this into perspective for you… people spend thousands upon thousands of dollars on educating themselves on learning a profession or skill in colleges and universities throughout the world. They are required to put in the time and money in order to become something! This course can provide you with the means to be self-sufficient and you can do it (learn it) in a short period of time or longer if necessary, but the end result is that you will possess a skill and a profession that will serve you for the rest of your life. In my opinion, even if it took someone 4 years plus to learn the concepts to mastery, it would be time well invested! In a nutshell… if you take the learning seriously you will completely understand the concepts and be able to implement the trading strategies in a short period of time.
Question: What is so different about this course in comparison to other trading training courses and seminars and other courses that are available on the internet?
Answer: There are significant differences. Most trading training courses will teach you a lot about how to place standard trade positions based on market direction. If you are willing to fork out more money, you may learn in some of their advanced courses about putting on spread trades, condors and credit spreads, etc.
The trading as a business trading system is built upon managing a portfolio of trades, not individual trades… and then we manage our portfolio as an aggregate position. But that’s not all… the key to running your trading as a business is about adjustments to your positions so that you remain profitable. Our way of running a trading business allows you to trade with confidence and mange your risk, not your losses. Also, although there are probably many courses that are good at teaching the basics of options trading, one of the most frustrating aspects for many students is how to take theory and put it into practice. Our video format allows you to see what is happening which in my opinion gives you a better platform for learning. If you couple the content that you will be learning on the videos with a paper trading account at ThinkorSwim, you can really cut away a lot of the confusing aspects of mastering the art and science of trading.
Question: What if I know nothing about options trading; can I still learn the materials and learn how to trade as a business?
Answer: If you know nothing about options you can still take this course and make “Trading as A Business” work for you… but we highly suggest you go to the library and in between Modules study a basic options book like “Options Trading 101″ by Bill Johnson or “The Option Strategy Bible” by Guy Cohen.
Also, go to: http://optionseducation.org/ for free basic option tutorials and information (just realize most of the information, while excellent, is theoretical and academic in nature).
Question: I’ve lost a lot of money in the markets and I’m nervous about getting back in… How will this course help me?
Answer: If you’ve lost money in the market it can destroy your confidence – our system will allow you to trade with 100% confidence again because instead of hoping to make a profit by guessing what to do, you’ll have a plan.
Of course we will never say you will make any money with this business because we can’t tell how you’ll use the information we’ll share with you. Your success in your investment business depends on only one thing: The decisions YOU make.
But, remember this… the only way for you to make the right decisions is by having superior knowledge. Once you understand how to REALLY make money, you will trade with total confidence. That’s what we can do for you and we do not say it lightly, it’s true.
Question: Is the training expensive?
Answer: It should be! But, as you’ll see… we’ve made this incredibly affordable so you can learn it without any serious financial stress. We have been to seminars for $3,000 and $5,000 and you will get much more from this course than both of those combined. We’ve also seen one trading course that charges $7,500 just for online access to learn the basics of options!
The Fact is that the VALUE of this course is easily in the thousands and we are VERY confident that you will understand the real value once you begin your training.
So, the answer is “No”, your training is not expensive, especially when you consider that you will be learning a skill and managing your own business that provides you with monthly profits…
Question: What happens if I don’t order now?
Answer: I’ll tell you what happens… nothing. That’s right! You still won’t have an actionable plan to finally become self-reliant and you are left a victim of failed policies and the old ways of thinking.
Let’s be honest. You need to change in order to have change in your life. The Options Made Easy: A Video Guide to Profitably Trading as a Business program offers you this change.
Investing in this course will truly put the knowledge into your hands and into your mind… the knowledge you need to assure that you and your family live the life you deserve.
Your course has everything you need for you to learn how to make money on a monthly basis… it doesn’t get any better than that! There is NO business like this.
