Here Are Several Common Inquiries:

There is risk associated with any trading instrument.  However, buying options is essentially insurance.  Would you consider your car, homeowner, or life insurance risky?  You risk losing your premiums if you don't make a claim.  But, in exchange for those premiums, you get the comfort of protecting life's most important assets.

Buying options allow you to protect the assets in your portfolio – which is another one of your important assets.

Options traders can buy and sell options.  In the case of selling options, you would be the one providing the insurance – the insurance company.  In exchange for providing protection, you collect a premium.  But it's important to realize that the buyer's protection is the seller's risk.  Without having some other risk-mitigating instrument, i.e., long options or shares of the equity, a trader could be exposed to significant risks.

That is why we teach people the important fundamentals of spread trading – buying and selling options and stock.  This allows traders to take on the risk profile that is comfortable for them.  Almost always, the risk associated with spread trading is far less than trading a stock alone.

Using a combination of these spread trades, our members understand how to generate income, achieve capital appreciation, and protect their portfolios in any market direction.

Collectively, our staff has over a hundred years of experience trading options.  Seven days a week, they share their insights, experience, and coaching with our members – things that cannot be read in a book and only come from practical hands-on trading.

We teach all of the basic and advanced options strategies.  However, our unique approach to trading allows members to fix losing trades.  Our success ratio of profitable trades has exceeded 90% since we began tracking our performance six years ago.

We can only achieve this performance by using our proprietary adjustment technology.  Following our straightforward six-step trading plan, members structure trades that can be fixed when the market turns against them.

Members also benefit from the world's most vibrant and active options community.  Live online classes and coaching sessions allow members to interact daily with our staff.  Our Mid-Week and Weekly shows give members unique insight and ideas to trade the current market.  All of these are available as archives if you miss the live sessions.

We share real money trades with our members so they can see exactly how we are trading the current market.

We also have an online community forum where members engage with our entire community – asking questions, getting feedback, sharing ideas, and improving their knowledge.

OptionsANIMAL is also proud to offer live in-person summits throughout the year.  These seminars are the industry benchmark in providing effective learning and real-time actionable trading ideas.  These seminars are valued at over $2,500 each and are provided at no additional cost to our members.

The emotions of fear and greed are primal and cause traders to make bad decisions.  The OptionANIMAL trade adjustment technology allows our members to consider the possible outcomes and plan for all contingencies.  Imagine your confidence when you understand that you can manage your trade to profit, even if it doesn’t follow the expected path.  This confidence allows OptionsANIMAL Traders to eliminate those primal emotions and trade rationally.  It gives you the peace and comfort to sleep at night, knowing that you can succeed in any trend.

In almost all cases, the answer is yes here. You can also use them in RESPs if you reside in Canada. There are some limitations in 401ks and RRSPs, and we recommend you call to find out how this works for your situation.

No day trading isn't required. Several methods we teach involve minimal time commitment to trade successfully in the stock market. Our average students spend 30 minutes to an hour a day looking at the market.

We have taught thousands of members to trade options.  Our diverse community spans the spectrum of age, location, and experience.  Our youngest members are teens, and our most experienced members are in their nineties.  We have members from nearly every walk of life, including single stay-at-home parents, retired professors, plumbers, artists, engineers, firefighters, executive chefs, nurses, pet sitters, photographers, doctors, ballerinas, and more.  These people have learned to master the OptionsANIMAL process, which has changed their lives forever.

Our program is structured so that you can set the pace and learn at the best rate.  Many of our members successfully trade the market in only a few short months.

This answer depends on your investing needs, risk tolerance, etc. We recommend you call in to see what we suggest depending on your situation. Short answer: you can trade some options for just a few hundred dollars.
