    I invite you to join the Steady Options forum.

    We are having a good month so far. The model portfolio is up 7% in May and 29% YTD (cash adjusted, with 10% allocation per trade). The ROI is 43% based on the maximum capital on risk. Maximum drawdown was just 5%. Check out the full performance.

    This is a Premium Options Education forum. The focus is on non-directional strategies like earnings plays and Iron Condors. You might expect 10-15 trade ideas per month. The explanation will include why I think it is a good trade at that time, the Greeks, the risk/reward, the best time to entry/exit, price targets etc.

    To get an idea about my trading style, check out my articles on Seeking Alpha - seekingalpha.com/author/kim-klaiman/articles. Within the forum, I discuss similar ideas but the discussions are much more focused and timely, including real time updates, Q&A sessions and live chat room.

    Take advantage of the low promotional rate of just $49 per month with 10 days free trial. It won't last for long. No hype, no false promises, only high quality education and actionable ideas at a very reasonable price. Many members say it's the best investment they have ever made.
