Options Trading System -
Straightforward Buy/Sell signals

Options-Trading-System™ is an affiliate of QQQ-Options-Service™, a service that delivers trading signals for QQQ options.

For beginners and advanced options traders alike, our QQQ options signals are very easy to follow (click here for an example). A signal can take one of two forms: "Buy Put" (to purchase a put option or "put") or "Buy Call" (to buy a call option or "call").

Concurrent with the issue of a trading signal, the system provides several options parameters that are necessary for making trading decisions and placing actual trades:

• Option symbol;
  
• Name and symbol of the underlying security (i.e., "QQQ");
  
• Option strike price;
  
• Expiration date of the option;
  
• Suggested entry price;
  
• Suggested exit price;

If you have decided to follow a signal, our "Suggested Entry Price" and "Suggested Exit Price" become the most important parameters associated with opening and closing a trade. For a particular put or call, our most general trading recommendation can be summarized as follows:

• Buy puts / calls when those puts / calls trade at or below the "Suggested Entry Price";
  
• Sell puts / calls when those puts / calls trade at or above the "Suggested Exit Price".

The fact that a new options trading signal has been issued does not necessarily imply that a trade will always take place. There are situations where the market does not reach our "Suggested Entry Price". When this happens, the trading signal will usually "expire" within a few trading days. For instance, assume a new trading signal was issued (published) on a particular day. If, following that date, no trade is initiated within three trading days, the signal will expire and we will cancel it. The reason we at times cancel a signal is to protect you against losses - options are decaying (wasting) assets and lose a portion of their value each day.

The following lists all the possible options signal adjustments that can occur following a signal issue or a trade initiation:

1. A signal was issued, but no trade has yet been initiated:
   
   • The signal may expire;
     
   • We may cancel the old signal (the signal that was just issued);
     
   • We may issue a new signal;
     
   • A trade may be initiated in accordance with our "Suggested Entry Price".
     
2. A trade was initiated in accordance with a previously issued signal:
   
   • We may adjust our "Suggested Exit Price";
     
   • We may close the trade in accordance with our "Suggested Exit Price".

Email alerts are available: (1) in a standard format, and (2) in a cell phone format, where we reduce the size of the message to a bare minimum, in order to accommodate the text size limitations for cell phones.

Although we also incorporate other forms of market analysis into our decision making process, the basic principle behind the generation of our trading signals is a process called "volume technical analysis". To better understand how signals are generated, we have illustrated all the trades in our trade history with charts. These indicate the exact points at which signals were generated. The charts also reveal where trades were initiated and terminated. All of our chart examples are supported by brief explanations that show why a particular options signal was generated.

Below, we have listed a few useful links to resources we hope will help you better understand the QQQ-Options-Trading™ product offering:

• Trade History: A complete trade history of QQQ options trades based on our trading signals;
  
• Trade Examples: Examples of all QQQ options trades from our trade history. The examples are based on NASDAQ-100 index charts. Each trade is annotated with a brief explanation.
