Weekly Options Strategies
This options trading book tells the active options trader how he can generate steady weekly profits during unstable market conditions such as the US and World stock markets experienced during the Financial Collapse which began with the Recession of 2008. A strategy using Recently Introduced OEX Weekly Options opened Weekly OEX Credit Condors on Each Thursday during the last hour of market trading how sophisticated traders can make money each month (with small risk) and make each week. The capital growth model shows that this strategy can make your risk capital grow rapidly. Jon Schiller’s Options Trading Software: SelfAdapDTN4 provides the tools needed to execute these Weekly Condors.
The strategy described in this book uses DTN.IQ to provide the realtime quotes that feed the SelfAdapDTN4 software. The Condor Orders are placed and executed using TradeKing brokers which allows Condor orders at Low Commissions..
