Summary

SPK option trading is the proprietary model which has personally developed by Alexander Shpak and offered to our clients since September 2009. The SPK trading model is based on a technical analysis (Scheme Charts - charts compression technique) and statistical research of the last 20 years (since 1996) of the daily and intra-day changes of the United States stock markets.The strategy involves the trading of various series mini S&P puts and calls options on the S&P 500 future (ES, EW, EOM option series).

Investment Strategy

The trading involves combination of options strategies by buying and selling E-Mini S&P 500 options, usually between 2-6 weeks until expiration and depending on the current market conditions.
