When trading credit spreads, you don’t have to guess exactly where the market is going. Instead, you’re betting on where it won’t go. By selling premium, you collect income up front and let time work in your favor as the value of the option naturally goes down (thanks to something called "theta" or time decay). This gives you more flexibility and room for error compared to other trading strategies.

To avoid triggering SEC "pattern day trading" rules — which require a minimum account balance of $25,000 USD—we intentionally limit alerts to fewer than 3 trades within any rolling 5-day period. This approach allows us to remain accessible to traders with smaller accounts (our examples use $5,000 USD accounts), while still providing high-quality trade setups.
We suggest using a stop-loss set at 3 times the premium collected. For example, if you collect $1.00 per share ($100 per contract), we recommend placing a stop-loss at $4.00. This helps limit losses while still allowing the trade room to breathe. You keep $100 per contract regardless of the trade.
We typically use a $10-wide spread when trading SPX credit spreads. However, we implement a 3x stop-loss rule to manage risk. This means that while the maximum theoretical loss is the full $10 width, most losing trades will be exited well before reaching max loss—typically when the stop-loss threshold is hit.
Trades are typically opened on day one and closed when they can be bought back for $0.05 or allowed to expire worthless. Since we're selling premium, the strategy is designed to collect "insurance" and let time decay (theta) work in our favor.
We’ve consistently grown small accounts by following the strategy alerts with disciplined risk management. For detailed results, please refer to the "Historical Performance" section above.
Yes — this program is specifically designed to support small accounts. While a $5,000 USD account is ideal, it can work with as little as $3,000 USD. We typically alert 1–2 trades per week, with an average hold time of about a day and a half.
