About Us
Welcome to OptionStrat, the leading options research tool for traders of all levels. Our mission is to help you become a more informed and profitable trader by providing you with tools to make data-driven decisions.
At OptionStrat, we understand how challenging it can be to navigate the complex world of options trading. That’s why we created our platform - to help you trade with confidence. With our three powerful tools, the strategy builder, strategy optimizer, and unusual options flow, we make it easier for traders to find the best strategies that fit their goals.
What we value
Mastery
It's knowing how to get there and then showing others how to get there too.
Learning is the path to wisdom and wisdom is where the answers lie. A true master of the trade is one who pursues the principles and experiences accumulated by those who came before. We are working to help members grow their portfolio and grow as an expert trader who can read the market, derive insights, and strategize with a high probability of success.
Clarity
Reducing the complexities of the market to principles you can grasp and tech you can use.
When developing any tool, every app feature, we strive to make every part of options trading less convoluted than how we found it in the beginning. It's why we are big on visualizations that make learning more intuitive and why we work hard to make our our tutorials straightforward, and our technology intuitive. We believe it's the best way for learning and making smart and calculated moves.
Time
There are no shortcuts to success. Stay away from anyone who promises otherwise.
We believe you must invest your time before you invest your money. Because at the end of the day, you get what you put in. We designed OptionStrat as a learning experience that lets members spend time with the different tools, practice, and perfect their craft. Because the wisdom that comes from trying, failing, learning, and improving is priceless.
Community
Collective intelligence is real. We love to see it in action.
The power of a strong community cannot by overstressed. Plant yourself in an environment where other traders share their experience, including mistakes and successes, where the excitement of the market becomes infectious, and where you can grow and learn the most. We welcome you to join our Discord community chat and watch our weekly trade idea videos.
