[OPEN NOW] New rules to trade options with. (Ad)

Here’s an update that could make your entire year. But first, a question. Could you get better wins if you applied a new set of rules to your trade? For example, when you meet your criteria to take a trade, could you improve your results by taking the same trade differently? From the audit I just did, it turns out the answer is a resounding YES! I applied a new set of rules to 100 live published trades from 2024. These 100 trades already got a whopping 69% win rate – taking a $10k model account risking 10% per trade to $63,304. But what happened when we applied these new rules? We got an 85.1% win rate and sent the same $10k account risking 10% per trade to over $200k!
