Several years ago while still working, I blew up a 25K+ account with my first foray into trading. I've been fully retired since 11/28/24 and decided a couple years ago to try again. For a year and a half I began to learn and follow an overnight vertical credit spread program using the SPX called the retirement income trade which claimed a 94-96% success rate, which turned out to be true! Upon retiring at the end of Nov. I set myself up to begin trading again. (With a much smaller account!) I actively started trading again at the beginning of Feb. To date I've had 21 trades. The 16 that were the retirement trade were 100% successful, and better yet I understood the process well enough that I was able to do 13 of them on my own. The other 5 were buying long calls 3 of which I lost money on. After trying a couple different programs I came to the conclusion that it was a very expensive and risky way to go. Then I stumbled upon your $7 add. After a little exploring I saw that you were doing vertical call programs, exactly what I wanted to do. Plus you appeared interested in providing education and guidance to members. That got me jazzed enough to jump right into the in/out spreads program. I feel like I’ve found a trading home and am looking forward to learning and growing. The retirement income trade will get me where I want to go within the next 2-3 months. Theo Trade will hopefully give me the further momentum and education so I can do some real good for my children, grandchildren, Church and community.
