The Gold Standard in Investment Education

                 

 

An Important Message from Marcus Matthews of The Success Academy for existing Option Traders, Spreadbetters, Stock and CFD Traders 

- AND those completely new to trading.

 

 

How YOU can GUARANTEE profits on EVERY trade whether the market goes Up OR Down – in the SAME trade!

 

Would you like to make trades returning 300% profit? 500%? even 1,000%? - consistently?

  (you will see for yourself some real examples of trades below)

 

 

Would you like to stop spending hours trying to work out which way a stock is going – and even then not being sure?

 

Find out how to profit even if the stock goes the opposite to what you expected – and make EVEN MORE if it does what you did expect.

Profit on trades even if you have NO IDEA and do not CARE which way it goes!

 

How can you do this??

 

You can do all of the above - and more with Options. Or more specifically with a unique, simple - and unpublished “Option PowerStrategy"TM .

 

If you are serious about making money and willing to open your mind to the possibility that YOU could be making trades which make money and even more if it goes in your favour, then read on.

 

 

First of all some MYTHS:

 

MYTH 1: “Options are complicated'

The basic principle of options is very simple. In the course, we shall show you the four basic building blocks of the strategy  

 

What you can then do - if you wish - is to put some of these together in different ways - and give them fancy names. We don't worry about that as having learned the easy way the way we teach, you will be able to understand the combinations whatever their name to make consistent profit.

 

And you may have heard of the Greeks.  We will teach you the basic concepts that you need to be aware of - without distracting jargon or maths.

Admittedly, initially I believed in this myth myself. I bought many options books including the classic Chicago Board of Options Exchange “Option Concepts' and option ‘guru’ and professor Sheldon Natenbergs “Option Volatility and Pricing'. OK here is a confession – I never read many of them.

Have I and course attendees made excellent returns with options based on simple understanding? Yes. So will you.

 

 

MYTH 2: “Options are risky'

Options can be risky to the uninitiated, but it is possible - in fact easy - to do simple option trading strategies with LESS risk that just simple buying of or selling of shares - and in fact with almost no risk compared to the rewards. We will show you how you in our seminar.

 

 

MYTH 3: “I need to have a strong idea of the direction of the underlying share to make money with the options'

 

Again, initially I believed in this myth myself. And sure – if you are happy to stay with simple calls and puts (nothing wrong with that) you are unlikely to make money if you don’t have strong view of the share going in your favour - backed up by actual movement.  (For those of you already using options  you could do a straddle or strangle. But these strategies are expensive and do not make money when the stock goes sideways – and 'The Option PowerStrategyTM ' makes much more profit than any of these - with less risk)

 

Now I know better . And so will you when you learn' The Option PowerStrategy'.

You will know all you need to know in just 2 days. Guaranteed.

 

So what exactly IS “The Option PowerStrategy'TM??

 

 

This detail of the strategy is CLOSELY GUARDED INFORMATION . The technique we are prepared to release is only for those serious about investing and implementing this straightforward method.

 

 

The full version of this strategy is not documented or NOT AVAILABLE ANYWHERE ELSE: -

 

 

 It is not in Chicago Board of Options Exchange “Option Concepts'

 It is not in option ‘guru’ and professor Sheldon Natenberg's “Option Volatility and Pricing'

 It is not in any of the following Option authors' books or courses: Optionetics, Larry McMillan,

     Bernie Shaeffer, Charles Cottle, Guy Cohen or Atul Sharma

 It is not published or recorded in any other Options book, course, trading guide, or website

 

This Strategy is ONLY available on The Success Academy’s one-off “The Option Power Strategy' course

 

The view  from a leading Options author


Guy Cohen is the creator of OptionEasy option analytical tool and author of two leading Options publications, “Options Made Easy' and "The Bible of Option Strategies".


As a new strategy, The Success Academy recently met up and introduced it to Guy who is now evaluating and stress testing it with a view to potentially including it within his platform.

EXAMPLE TRADES using the Option PowerStrategyTMplaced recently

 

One Sunday afternoon, one of our presenters was having a cup of tea with a close friend and past student (full- time mother and housewife). They spent a couple of minutes in front of the computer and spotted this trade together:

 

     Example 1    Stock:    J 2 Communications (US)      Symbol: JCOM

 

25 July 05  

Entry Buy  (Ask)

26 July 05

Exit Sell  (Bid)

$1,000

$17,000

$16,000

1,600%

 

This is an over FIFTEEN THOUSAND percent leverage compared to the plain stock investment - and in just ONE DAY!

(You have not misread this. YES IT IS OVER 15,000%. The numbers simply do not lie) .

Note: Leverage is the ratio of the better outcome compared with the original outcome eg 1,600% divided by 10.4% = 15,384%

Note: Another version of the same trade made $5,000 for no money down (ie with just a small deposit at your brokers). In this case you make an infinite amount of % gain! Obviously not all trades will make as much as this (though some could make more).

NB: The strategy requires the use of margin, so to place the initial entry position will use up additional funds in the account to support the position. Even taking this into account the percentages are extremely high.

 

 

One of the course co-presenters has started introducing the strategy to the Success Fund he is managing and one of the first trades was this one:

     Example 2   Stock:     John Deere (US)      Symbol: DE
 

12 Aug 05  

Entry Buy  (Ask)

16 Aug 05

Exit Sell  (Bid)

This trade was placed and closed while on holiday in Spain! (Note: holidays are important as is taking a break from trading! Total trading time during that week was just 1 hour.)

 

 

You may be thinking:  "That's impressive, can I really make these returns as well?"

Well, here is the real trade one of our graduates Saghir made only TWO WEEKS after the course - with REAL MONEY:

  Example 3    Stock:     Joy Global  (US)      Symbol:  JOYG

Tell me more

Could this be the “HOLY GRAIL' of trading?

 

As some of you may know, my belief is that the real Holy Grail of Trading is NOT any system, black box, method, technique, indicator etc but YOURSELF and whether you have a proper investment business plan, appropriate Trading Psychology, money management, a willingness to invest time and money in your own skills.

However, in terms of trading strategy this is to my mind the closest you will get to what people mean as  "The Holy Grail" of trading as you can get.

If you screen stocks appropriately and FOLLOW this straightforward option strategy that you will have learned correctly, you WILL make money with manageable risk which ever way the market goes – GUARANTEED.

So how can this be said with so much confidence? Well – this has been used, tried and tested, back-tested, virtually traded, but most importantly made to create bank vaults full of cash (and trading records to prove it) by our presenters. As lead trader of The Success Fund, I am now successfully using this strategy to make even more profits for the fund’s  investors. On the course, we will show you example trades done in the past – but most importantly future trades you can guarantee will make you money even BEFORE you place the trade!

So, ask yourself: How does gains in the hundreds of percent range compare to your current trading?

 How useful are the tip-sheets you are getting?

How much money have they made (or lost) for you?

 

Why not STOP sweating over:       Dan Zanger's tips

-         Shaeffer's Put Protector

-         Option Shark

-         Guerrilla Trades

-         Warrants Alert

-         or Any other service

 

and instead KNOW which (if any) of their  trades will make money for you.

 

Even better - chose YOUR OWN  trades which will outperform ANY of the above tipsters!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

 

 

1. "So if this strategy is so good, WHY has no one worked this out before?'

 

Good Question.

 

Well the honest answer is – I don’t  know. Talking this over bteween us, we believe it is a combination of the following: many traders (including most of the best ones) don’t look at options in the first place.

 

Of those that do, 90% don’t understand them and make them too complicated.

 

Of the 10% that do understand, some may assume that all the valid strategies have already been invented and tried.

 

Well – here’s the good news: here's one to add to the list!

 

2. “How can you be so sure to be able to offer a DOUBLE guarantee?'

 

I have known and worked with the author of this strategy for over two years and seen both his and my own account grow using a range of strategies. But apart from 100% faith in the skills of the originator of this strategy, the proof is in the pudding.

 

I myself have tested trades on past data using the strategy – and shown a profit each time – every time.

 

More importantly I am now using the strategy for real myself – and have ALREADY made significant profits. This is why The Success Academy will not only guarantee your course cost but repay it TWICE OVER if you do not make money using the “The Option PowerStrategy'.

 

PS When I discussed the DE trade (see above) with my co-presenter, he suggested a small adjustment (I am still learning some amazing enhancements to the strategy!). Guess what? My jaw just dropped and my eyes nearly popped out. My trade could have made in excess of 2,000%! And that is just in four days. But I think I am happy with a 400% return for now. As my own wealth coach always says, "It is the consistency that counts." This method is proven to work again and again, by myself and other students.

 

3. “If this is such a brilliant strategy why tell others about it?'

 

The author and directros of The Success Academy have achieved their initial financial goals, and now we are willing to help a small select group of individuals to do the same via trading.

 

For those who are committed, we are willing to share the methods used. So fa this information has been taught only to small number of private coaching clients,  a few city traders and a small course group.

 

Would you like to join them? You must ask yourself the question – are you prepared to open your mind that you will learn an easy strategy and make fistfuls of dollars using it – or continue on the potentially fruitless circuit of occasional profits, free seminars, tipsheets and other trading courses and search for the elusive Holy Grail elsewhere?

 

4. “Isn’t your price much too cheap?"

 

Yes. It is. This strategy has been delivered to selected groups of city traders for  £50,000+ earlier this summer 2005. The accountant and business partner have complained we are giving away the course too cheaply - they say the price should be at least £10,000 given the money making techniques taught.

 

Should 'The Success Academy' run another one, the price will be have to be £10,000+. So far, we are happy to make it a special opportunity to invite you to come along to share with us these unpublished methods. All we ask is that you are willing to apply the knowledge to make profits and let us know afterwards!

 

Further note: One of our key presenters (and author of the strategy) is not always available and he travels a lot. We have no plans to organise a similar course again in the UK with such a wealth of experience and massively profitable insights into options trading. It is likely that the course location will move overseas after July 2008. If you ACT NOW, you will ensure you avoid missing the last ever course held in the UK and join our exclusive club of successful graduates.

 

5. “Are you trying to make a profit from the course? Why do you need money from us?"

 

While The Success Academy is run as a business in its own right, the main objective is to work towards a vision of as many people as possible tapping into the wealth stream the world has to offer. We know  the financial markets offer the best ratio of effort to results for increasing wealth that there is,  and would like to share our knowledge to help you and others become financially free. In fact we invite all graduates to share this vision and work with us in the future to this end should you so wish.

 

The Success Academy also has a commitment to donate at least 10% of any profits to charity. We take an approach of charging a course fee that we believe is actually less than the true value on the basis that participants will gain much more than this in the future. The revenue generated funds further expansion to help meet our vision and further donations to charitable causes. (By the way,  we would note that unlike some other Investment Education organisations, the course revenue is not our main source of income, and the directors are primarily successful traders.)

 

6. "How much time do I need?"

 

Once you are up and running we suggest you should be easily able to place a couple of trades a month (or lots more if you wish) in only an hour or two per month. Of course in the first month after the course you would no doubt doubt want to spend more time say  a few 2 or 3 hour session or even a day to practice the material you now have. We have already had students who have placed their first successful trade with 7 days of the course.

 

Remember - it will not be necessary to spend ages on technical and other analysis to place these trades - though you can of course continue to do so if you wish. Ask yourself - what is the objective: making money or spending time (even if enjoyable) doing lots of trade analysis?

 

7. "What typical returns can I expect?"

 

As with any trading approach, this depends on a range of factors including how far you follow the suggested exercises and actions after the course, how often you trade, which stocks you pick, how far the market moves, your risk management and so on. Thus it is not practical to answer this question. However we can say from experience you should be able to achieve a high percentage of trades in the hundred percent plus range if you follow the suggested steps correctly.

 

 Just 10 days after the last course, one graduate emailed and shared with us his progress: "I closed (my position) today with a net profit 943% in four days! Thanks for a great course! "

 

8. "What do I need to start?"

  • PC and Internet Access (broadband ideally)
  • Charting Software (preferable but not essential) and
    • You do NOT need Technical Analysis skills (though if you have them you can use them)!
    • You do NOT need to be a PC Wizard!
    • You do NOT need prior tading experience!
    • You do NOT need to be a maths specialist!

If your trading results have been going round in circles after spending a lot of money and time on complex analysis and tip-sheets, then this method is going to be an enlightenment!

Mr R Kajiwalla , Essex

 

"I like the idea of follow-up actions.  I’ve been to only a few trading seminars but this aspect could be the most beneficial!"

 

Mr S Fox, Reigate

"The presenter ensured that I kept up and understood as much as possible. He kept a good balance and understanding for the experienced and the beginner and was able to respond to any level of question accordingly. This helped the beginners, like myself, to keep up and kept the flow going with the more experienced course members. This made me feel comfortable and enable me to follow the course at my pace with ease rather than feeling a panic to keep up which is very important "
