Hot off the Press
Introducing BackTester,
The goal of this application is to give you the ability to find the right options trading system that works for you. Perhaps you have spent thousands of dollars on seminars, and then spent hundreds of hours going through spreadsheet after spreadsheet playing what if games.
You can't rely on what "someone else said". You have two choices. Believe what "they" said and start trading, and losing money, and always be reliant upon them, or to do some testing of the system to see how it worked in the past. During a seminar, or in an advertisement, the system sellers will cherry pick examples and try to work you into an emotional frenzy to get you to buy their newsletter or buy a subscription of their trades. And there is a mixture of newsletters out there. Some good, some bad.
Or perhaps you are a good options trader and want to become a manager of other people's trades? Maybe you would like to use your experience of option trading and begin managing other peoples trades for a fee? Or to start your own newsletter?
This application will allow you to test your system. To know in advance what the expectation of the system will be. How often has this system won/lost in the past? What percentage gain should I expect? And then after you have your system created the way you want it, it allows you to search for new trades to enter on a daily basis.
