David L.Caplan – Trade Like A Bookie

Have you ever wanted to trade so that the odds were in your favor? David Caplan has combined his forty years of trade research, probability research, and poker playing experience together and come up with the Trade Like a Bookie manual. You will learn how to take advantage of the odds, beat the odds, and reap all the benefits that come along with it

–60% of the time, markets have no trend

–80% of all options expire worthless

–100% of options lose all their time value

The ‘ Bookie’ strategies put all of these statistics in your favor. Your advantage is almost unbeatable! It’s like starting out with an 80 yard lead in a 100 yard race!

You’ll have advantages that are even better than a “Bookies”!

1. You can collect from both sides

2. Every day both options experience “time decay” and lose some of their time value

3. You accept bets (trades) only when the odds are in your favor.

4. Even if the market moves out of the initial range, the position can be “adjusted” and still be successful.
