For nearly 20 years the founders of The Options Revolution have focused on markets, stocks, options, charts, research, backtesting, technology development and investor education etc. and we’re now striving to assist investors with all of the firepower that we’ve accumulated over those years.  The Option Revolution provides unique educational and software trading products and services.

The Options Revolution was launched in the same spirit that launched the American Revolution and on simple principles that once made the USA great: Self-Reliance and Self-Determination. Our goal is to assist our clients in every way that we possibly can in their endeavors to leave the Wall St. dependency paradigm and to establish themselves as confident self-directed investors that can competently think and act for themselves.
