Our ‘Mission Statement’

Terrapin Trader

target

          Our aims,and principles.

  1. We do not want your money, we want to enlighten.
  2.  We want a small group of like minded traders who are mutually supportive.
  3. We would like a get together of committed traders. This will be a ‘from the ground up’ session. We want to ensure nobody trades in ignorance or is too afraid to ask.(There are no stupid questions) This may take the form of a Saturday at a venue to be decided, but in the SW London/ Surrey area.
  4. Options trading is about mindset. Similar to Sudoku-that’s not about maths, but ‘seeing’ what goes where.
  5. Everything on the site is done with 100% sincerity, flaws and all. We make no apologies. Unless we apologise for rubbish maths!

    What Does the Future Hold?

    The plan is to build up our online following, adding content of a more sophisticated nature when we can. This may be in the form of videos or live webinars. We are not all about the hard sell- we are not selling anything. The truth is that there are very few retail options traders, and brokers. CBOE just announced record open interest-the smart world is trading options, the public is trading in the dark.    We have traded other instruments such as futures, CFDs, forex, shares, and for us, nothing comes close to options trading. It really is a life changer, and we want to share that enlightement. The finance world will try to sell you all manner of things which just disappoint. Options are nothing like those packaged investments, they are more like a step into the daylight. There will be that ‘Eureka moment’.

    No Going Back

    Once you know and trade options, you won’t go back to the one dimensional butt clenching ride. We aim to give you that clarity and understanding.

First found out about options in 1995.From the arcane magazine Exchange and Mart! First trade- a covered call on VOD in 1999. Made 10%,VOD almost doubled. That's when I realised I was not a good trader,and I was forgiven thanks to the amazing world of exchange traded options

  1. If anyone would like to be a part of the ‘ground zero’ group, you need to let us know.
    There is of course no financial commitment but there is a moral one. We do not want half hearted wannabes who expect to be spoonfed. This is for people who will take responsibility for their own actions but of course will be able to get support from the group if they want an opinion.

    1. I have successfully traded options for some time,mainly by way of
      cash covered written puts. I am always amazed at the lack of
      knowledge and enthusiasm for options in the UK. The opportunity
      to contact other traders would very welcome. I reside in west
      London, so shouldn’t be too far from your home base.

      I look forward to hearing from you.
