Introducing The FlashTrading Service

Dear "State" Visitors:

Dave M. here... I am extremely proud to introduce an ENTIRELY NEW type of trading service to our visitors - the The FlashTrading Service.

In short, this service (which focuses on very short-term options trading) is unlike anything you've ever seen before.

I have worked with the manager of the service (David W. - aka The Underground Trader) for several years now. We beta-tested the approach and I have to admit that I was very impressed with both the approach and the performance.

So, if short-term trading is your cup of tea, I would STRONGLY encourage you to check out David W's new service - Which GOES LIVE on September 1st!

Wishing you all the best,

Dave Moenning

Welcome to The FlashTrading Service!

This ALL NEW short-term options trading service is an entirely new approach to options trading and unlike anything you've ever seen before! (We get in, we get out, and we're done!)

The FlashTrading Approach

Our objective in this service is extremely simple. We want our accounts to be in the green for the trading week, whether it is by $10 or $1000 or anywhere in between. That does not mean we will always achieve our goal, but we will consistently employ a strategy using relatively low amounts of capital to attempt to achieve quick gains in the market.

Our trading methodology is based on years of trading the futures market and employing knowledge of futures behavior to the short-term options market. We will have our fair share of losing trades...you are not properly trading if you do not know how and when to take a loss. But our quantity and quality of winning trades should more than make up for the occasional clunker.

The FlashTrading team is expertly familiar with any number of options strategies, advanced level indicators, and black box systems. However, our strategy, like our objective, is very simple..."get on the right side of the market over a short time frame". While we are very cognizant at all times of market influences, breaking news events, and sentiment, we do not try to predict the market. We let the market dictate our moves. As famed trader Jesse Livermore said, "Markets are never wrong, but opinions often are."

About The FlashTrading Service

In our humble opinion, The FlashTrading Service is unlike any other options service you’ve ever seen. The service:

• Is a short-term options trading service geared for both beginning options traders and the more experienced options trader looking for an entirely new approach to trading.
  
• Focuses primarily on the relatively new weekly options listed on the CBOE, as well as near-month options.
  
• Searches out daily trade set-ups which specify put and call strikes and entry and exit prices, usually on equity index ETF’s like SPY, QQQ, and DIA. We will also trade on occasion options on specific equity stock options, sector index ETF options (Select Sector SPDR’s), the VIX volatility index, and options on leveraged ETF’s such as SSO, SDS, QLD, QID, BGU, BGZ, FAS, and FAZ, to name a few.
  
• Employs extensive use of the futures market to determine optimal entry and exit points.
  
• Provides Real-time trading alerts via both e-mail and posted on our "live blog."
  
• Provides market commentary via our "live blog" discussing the action in the market and our leanings at any particular point.
  
• Utilizes a philosophy of being in and out of the market on a relatively fast basis (hence the name), with positions usually closed within the trading day.
  
• Employs a strategy of limiting out-of-pocket risk by using the weekly options which are lower-priced and offer greater leverage.

Here's a sample of a recent trade: Purchase 5 SPY August Week 4 puts at $1.07 per contract, exit at $1.65 for $290 profit on a $535 investment, +54.2%. (A typical trade will use 3-10 contracts and option prices between $.30 and $1.50 per contract.)

However, we want to make it clear that The FlashTrading Service is designed for active investors who are able to trade markets on a real-time basis and can accept the risks involved with short- term options trading. While risk management plays a vital role in this service, The FlashTrading Service is not designed, nor is it appropriate for the average investor. This service is designed for those traders able to take action on a moment's notice.

What Makes The FlashTrading Service Different?

Many of the most successful short-term daytraders exclusively use futures contracts on the S&P, Dow, Nasdaq 100, Russell index and other futures vehicles to trade quick intraday moves in the markets.

For the average trader, futures trading can be intimidating, highly risky and requires the willingness to put higher levels of capital at risk. Our goal is to replicate the approach and best practices of several futures trading systems into an easy-to-understand and execute options trading service which uses the leverage of options but strictly defines more manageable levels of risk.

The growing liquidity of weekly options gives us a lower-cost opportunity to take advantage of the market’s daily moves. We have within our arsenal over a dozen specific trade set-ups which will be employed as appropriate

Note: We will also employ a few other strategies to capture periods of high market uncertainly, such as option straddles, and the occasional longer-term trade via option debit spreads. The rationale and execution of these trades will be clearly and concisely explained before entry.

Important Note: In order to take advantage of all trading opportunities, we devote a minimum of $10,000 to the service.

The FlashTrading Service Manager

The service is managed by David W. (aka the Underground Trader), who has over 25 years of experience in the financial markets. He has worked with or consulted for major banks like JPMorgan Chase and Bank of NY Mellon, financial news and data provider Thomson Reuters, CIGNA’s Pension and Investment Group, several hedge funds and venture capital firms pursuing Internet ventures, and the American Stock Exchange. In his work with the American Stock Exchange, he was deeply involved with the first broadscale introduction of now well-known ETF’s, such as SPY, DIA and MDY, to the retail investing public.
