After nearly two years of following OA, I finally took the leap and joined the platform earlier this year. As someone who has primarily been a long stock investor only, I never imagined myself venturing into the world of professional option trading. However, the OA platform has proven to be a game changer, convincing me that option trading can indeed complement my investment strategies. I recently attended Kirk’s Bootcamp workshop, which was truly outstanding, especially for a newbie option trader like myself. The insights gained were invaluable, and I was really excited to put them into practice.
As a software developer I wanted to backtest some option strategies. Just when I was getting ready to spend $10,000 on CBOE DataShop, OptionAlpha was launched. Getting the Pro+ subscription was a no-brainer for me. As I discovered, the best part of OptionAlpha is the community, here I found some of the smartest people around.
For a year now, I've been utilizing Option Alpha and it has been a transformative platform into my trading tools. The team has an impressive set of educational resources that facilitate a deeper understanding of option trading and bot utilization. The recent platform update is remarkable, featuring more user-friendly options for customizing trades and safeguarding profits. I'm still adjusting and experimenting with new features like trailing stops, the team has truly done an outstanding job!
