OptionVue Is Raising Their Prices
I stopped using OptionEtics Platinum in 2006 and switched to OptionVue software.
It wasn’t cheap.
I think I paid over $3000 with the annual maintenance. The BackTrader software was a one-time purchase versus the annual fee it is today. I was happy to only have to pay the $399/year STAR maintenance package to keep my software humming along with delayed quotes.
Dan Harvey told me a few days ago in our trading group that OptionVue was raising their prices on January 1, 2015. I didn’t get the email announcing this so I contacted Len Yates to get a copy, which they sent to me. I pasted the entire email in a forum post to discuss this price increase in our forums.

The Floater Trade
Jim Riggio put an SPX trade on about two months ago when the SPX was at 2000. Jim put a 90-day (DEC expiration) 1975/2000/2025 butterfly on. Nothing fancy or unbalanced. I put the same trade on the next day.
Jim and I took two different approaches to managing the trade
But what does this have to do with that duck?
Loving the M3
I remember back in the day when I was learning “income trading”. I used to trade the “not so” mighty iron condor strategies. Yes, the very same strategies that have regained popularity in the low volatility markets over the last 2 years. I can still recall how everyone loved these strategies back then and how I jumped on board just in time to experience the change in market conditions that took all those traders out. What a mess!
It was at that point I said “never again”! Never again will I blindly follow some trading system that someone else tells me is great. Never again will I be in a system I don’t understand. Never again will I trade a strategy that isn’t adaptable to market conditions.
My massive failure sent me on a quest to develop a way to trade profitably in any market condition. And after thousands of trades and hundreds of hours I finally did it…
