dear "the"... just email red option and ask them to send you the latest track record. they will do it no strings attached. and, you can also ask them, if they have any "free trial" promotions going on. They always seem to, especially if you have just opened  and funded an account with tos - or if you are a tos customer, etc...  they're good people in my experience. no spammers or slammers. you  come & you go whenever you want.

p.s. i don't totally agree with Van Tharp on the "you must take all the signals." I subscribe to some advisories to learn techniques and to get ideas. "Thanks for the suggestions. .. let me see if I agree..."

Thanks for the information. I totally agree that if you are going to trade something, you take all the signals. It is a system, all or none. I usually have no idea whether to be bullish or bearish anyway. Why do you think I am trading options :)?

I see that on their web site, Red Option asks me to contact them to get track record information, so that they can dispense it on an "individual by individual" basis. No thanks. I can understand that they might not want to post trade information in real time, but why not after the fact? Condor Options, for example, posts their closed trades every month. Their results are there for all the world to see, including the months they lost almost 100%.

For now, I guess I'll keep getting up at 6.
