Performance History
Why do I need $50K?
Because our research -backed by our trading experience- has shown that this is the amount needed in order to carry out the suggested strategies.
Which trades tend to be the most/least risky?
Trades that are a combination of long stock/long puts, or short stock/long calls are the least risky. Trades that involve
either the purchase of calls only, or, the purchase of puts only, are the most risky.
Sometimes you close a position although it appears there may be additional profits, why?
Because I do not care about any individual position, I care about its impact on the portfolio. Once a trade has fulfilled its
contribution to the portfolio -as intended- there is no need to keep it.
Is your option trading service directed towards experienced or inexperienced option traders?
The service can be both a trading vehicle, and a training vehicle. As a trading vehicle, it is meant for traders of intermediate to advanced
knowledge and experience. Novice traders can use the service as a training/educational
tool by simply studying the trade suggestions and accompanied
commentary -- without trading -- in order to improve their understanding and knowledge of options, and options trading.
When is the Options Trading Service published?
Phoenix is published in real-time via email. You can read all but the most recent issues by clicking here: PHOENIX Visitors' Calendar. It is available on the website about 4:00pm PST.
What are the various methods of delivery for the Options Newsletter?
This is an online newsletter accessible via our website. We do not mail or fax a physical booklet to subscribers.
When are updates to the Newsletter provided?
We will post updates to positions as warranted. An example is when we determine that a position should be closed early. Subscribers will be notified via e-mail each time the next issue and / or special updates are posted to the website.
How many options selections are provided in your option trading service?
Hamzei Analytics will be featuring a total of 8-10 options monthly.
What are the various types of options trades that will be featured?
We will be providing Long Puts and / or Calls and Credit and / or Debit spreads.
How much capital should someone allocate to each featured options trade?
Each trade suggestion specifies the capital allocation for that trade per $50k of starting capital.
What are your stop loss parameters on the featured options?
Each trade suggestion comes with specific stop/loss parameters applicable to that trade.
How will I know whether the featured option is a Put or Call and where will I find the option symbol for the stock?
We provide a detailed table that includes the stock symbol, option symbol, expiration month and whether it is a put or call.
Trading Resources
What type of tools or resources do you use to make your option selections?
Some of the tools and resources are our Proprietary Dollar Weighted Put Call Ratios, Active Beta Matrix, Market Implied Volatilities, our Proprietary SuperHornets Trading System and Price Intensity charts.
What is a Simple Put Call Ratio?
A simple put call ratio (PCR) measures only the ratio of contracts between puts and calls. It values every contract the same. This is a big problem since it ignores the actual dollar value of the calls and puts traded.
What is a Dollar Weighted Put Call Ratio?
Dollar weighted put call ratios ($wPCR) are much more specific and calculates the total dollar amount of the puts and calls. This is a vast improvement since you can now know where the smart money is placing their bets! It also reflects both changes in volume and options premium.
What kind of indicator is the Dollar Weighted Put Call Ratio?
The $wPCR is a sentiment indicator, albeit, a very sophisticated forward looking indicator. It is not a Buy or Sell signal in itself. It is either indicating a Bearish sentiment, a Neutral sentiment or Bullish sentiment.
