Options21 Company Profile
Summary: Options21 provides options trading education and software, and publishes an advisory newsletter. The company was founded in 1996 and holds the Australian Financial Services License Number 247412.
The Options21 education services are aimed at coaching any level trader to a professional level. Our proprietary trading methodology uses a documented specific approach to the analysis, execution and trade management of exchange traded options, suitable for both Australian and US markets. Our approach brings together the elements of volatility, price and time analysis, which goes well beyond what many new participants perceive options trading to be. Options21 mentors clients over a minimum period of 3 months, making their instructors accountable for the quality of the strategy taught and integration of the techniques in their clients’ future trading.
Options21 formed an alliance with the Chicago based software provider OptionVue Systems International. OptionVue Systems has been providing options trading software globally for the past 25 years, and in 1999 appointed Options21 its Australasian distributor. The product OptionVue 6 provides a platform for traders to discover and analyse trades at a professional level. The software is linked to a number of trading platforms, allowing the user to timely execute an order without delay. OptionVue 6 is not just charting software, and its capabilities extend to satisfy the demands of the most professional level user.
In 2003 Options21 launched the “WiseReport” advisory newsletter, which offers a shortcut for the busy trader. Every week the markets are scanned for opportunities which satisfy the strict Options21 entry criteria. Entry and exits of resulting trades are emailed to clients in real time, keeping traders fully informed. Authorisation can also be given to your broker to act on these newsletter trade selections automatically. This service suits busy people who do not wish to or have no time to monitor the markets on a daily basis.
