Hello. I’m Michael J. Carr.
Options are more popular than ever.
Millions of new investors are using them to fast-track their way to an early retirement.
I say — good.
Options are easier to trade than ever, and I’m glad more people are taking advantage of them.
However…
I want to make sure no one takes advantage of YOU.
That’s why I want to teach you how to trade options the right way.
I’ve been trading options ever since I retired from the military at 42.
They’ve changed my life.
But when I ask people: “Where can you go to learn about options?”
The answer is always…
“Google?”
“YouTube?”
“TikTok?”
People inevitably end up taking advice from some 25-year-old who got lucky in 2020 … when many stocks were rising 100% in a week.
Here’s the problem.
They typically DON’T get their education from a 30-year trading veteran…
Or someone who managed hundreds of millions of dollars…
Or teaches at the world’s premier financial college … where Wall Street traders go to learn their secrets.
None of these amateurs can claim this.
I can.
30 years ago when I was halfway through my career as a military officer, I spent the next 10 years reading a book a week on the stock market.
When I retired at 42, I became a full-time trader.
Soon after, I became a money manager at a small firm that held $80 million in assets. Within two years, I raised assets under management to $220 million.
And I’ve spent the last several years teaching at the prestigious New York Institute of Finance … known as “Where Wall Street Goes to School.”
They don’t just let anyone teach there. I’m the third instructor in 60 years to teach one of their most coveted seminars.
I also teach a comprehensive options 101 course.
It costs about $1,700. You have to fly to New York and it lasts two days.
This class is limited to about 30 students, and I only teach it a few times a year.
So until now, it’s been hard to get access to me.
Because I’m concerned if I don’t … many will learn how to trade options from the wrong people.
I don’t want that to happen to you.
I want to give you a chance to learn how to trade options the right way, from a seasoned pro who’s seen it all.
That is why I’m inviting you to get full access to my new Options Master Class.
You don’t have to fly to New York.
You don’t have to pay $1,700.
You can take the course on your own schedule.
And you can come back to it as much as you want.
In this course, I completely demystify the options trading experience — for new and improving traders alike.
I totally pull back the curtain, explaining what options are, how to trade them, and how you could best position yourself to win in today’s amazing trading environment.
The goal of my Options Master Class is to get you trading like a professional — QUICKLY. In almost no time, you can:
These are just a few of the many benefits you’ll get (and continue to get) with Options Master Class. It’s likely to be your go-to resource for years to come.
It’s not hard to understand why options have exploded in popularity.
You can use them to:
Profit as Stocks Go DOWN.
INSURE Your Portfolio Against a Crash.
Invest Using SMALL Amounts of Money.
Collect WEEKLY Income.
Turn Small Moves Into BIG GAINS.
Essentially, options give you unlimited power — and tremendous flexibility to meet YOUR financial needs the way you want.
But how do options work exactly?
Put simply…
Options let you buy (or sell) stocks at better prices.
Worried one of your stocks might fall 50%?
You can buy an option that allows you to sell it at a much higher price, even if it’s already dropped!
Or think a stock could rise 10% from here?
Rather than invest tens of thousands of dollars in its shares … you can put up a couple hundred bucks and potentially make the exact same profit!
How does this work?
Basically, when you buy an option, you’re in control … and you can instantly wield the power of owning HUNDREDS of shares of a stock, without ever having to buy them.
If you profit, you can profit big.
And if you don’t … that’s OK. Since options are cheap, you never invested much money to begin with.
That’s why options are one of the greatest tools investors have available to turn small amounts of capital into big gains.
And some trade for so little, you can enjoy this power without needing a ton of cash in your brokerage account.
Here’s a brief example.
Let’s say your neighbor, Jerry, buys stock in a company he likes: Tesla.
If Tesla goes up, he makes money.
If it goes down … he loses money. And potentially lots of it.
And there’s a good chance he will lose money. Over the last two years, Tesla has fallen 50% … 33% … and down almost 50% again.
If Jerry invested $10,000, he could be out $5,000. Ouch.
But Dave, Jerry’s much smarter friend, decided to trade Tesla options instead.
He bought one for $500 betting Tesla would go up. It didn’t.
He’s out $500. Not $5,000.
Next, he bet Tesla would go down … and he was right.
This time, $500 turned into $2,500.
This is a hypothetical example, but it’s how options work. And traders experience things like this every day.
Making money when stocks crash is perhaps one of the greatest benefits available to options traders.
You can make money when stocks rise.
And turn right back around and make money when stocks fall.
Doing this, you can create your own NEVERENDING bull market inside your portfolio.
Take for example Peloton (PTON), the exercise equipment company.
Within a year of the pandemic, the stock shot up a staggering 749%.
Only to crash 95%.
Stock investors almost lost everything.
But options traders could’ve simply “flipped a switch,” and continued to profit while Peloton’s stock crashed.
By July 2022, you could’ve MADE 622% as the stock lost almost all of its value.
The point is, with options, you can profit even while stocks are crashing.
Here’s another example.
Zoom rallied 429% during the first seven months of the pandemic.
Since then, the stock has returned to its pandemic lows.
While regular stock investors LOST 80%...
An options master who anticipated this move could have MADE nearly 396% in two years as the stock crashed!
That was enough to turn a single investment of $10,000 into $49,600.
It’s the same story with Netflix.
The stock doubled in 20 months.
Then LOST three-quarters of its value…
Stock investors got creamed.
But an options trader could have leveraged this move into a 605% gain, turning a $10,000 investment into $70,500.
It’s a simple question…
Lose HUNDREDS of dollars per share?
Or make over 40 grand on a single trade?
Now, these were the best-case scenarios if you timed everything perfectly. In real life, there’s always the risk of loss, like any investment. But my point is that buying the right option can help you profit — potentially quite a bit — even as stocks fall.
Really, the ability to make money when stocks fall gives you two advantages in one:
Again, when you trade options, you can make money in either direction. That’s a big advantage vs. simply buying and holding stocks and hoping they go up in value.
But the benefits don’t stop there…
To recap…
Options can help you make MORE MONEY than stocks when the market goes up.
And they can help you PROFIT when markets go down.
But the benefits don’t end there.
Did you know that if you own stocks, you have the option to collect INCOME every single month without having to sell a single share?
I call this “getting paid to trade.”
Think of it like this.
You’re a landlord. You own a property and rent it out. The renter pays you to live there.
You make money as the property increases in value … and you also get residual income every month.
You can do the same thing with stocks … WITHOUT having to put $20,000 down on a property or paying a second mortgage.
There’s a specific options strategy that I’ll tell you about in the course that allows you to do this.
Yes, you can get paid to trade.
Wall Street insiders and hedge fund managers have been using this options strategy for YEARS to become “lazy landlords” … collecting money that other investors leave on the table.
If you own the stock, this is money you get paid upfront.
And it beats the pants off of any dividend.
In fact, some of the most popular growth stocks, like Google and Amazon, that REFUSE to pay their investors any dividend, can use this strategy to potentially collect income every single week if they wanted to.
Certain investments, like exchange-traded funds or ETFs, can even pay you up to three times per week.
That’s a dozen paychecks you could collect PER MONTH.
I’ll tell you how you can get “paid to trade” in my Options Master Class.
There are several ways to do it. And as much as I like the “Lazy Landlord” method, I like this next one even more.
There are multiple ways you can get paid to trade.
As mentioned above, you can use options to make an extra paycheck, simply for owning stocks in your account.
But there’s another way you can get paid to trade that I like even better.
This way doesn’t require you to own anything.
In fact, all you need is money in your account.
Yes, you can get paid just for having money in your brokerage account.
And why not? Brokerage firms lend out the cash YOU put in and profit from … why shouldn’t you do the same?
You don’t even have to invest in it. Just click a few buttons and the money is yours.
Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway has used this method to collect over $4.9 billion. The investor once famously used this same technique to collect $7.5 million in under five minutes.
By the way, you can use this same strategy to buy stocks at a discount if you want.
Yes … if there’s a stock you want to buy, but it’s a bit too expensive for your taste right now, you can use this options trick to collect instant income … and even reserve the right to purchase the stock for a better price in the future.
If you’d rather just take the money and run, you can do that too.
But there’s a reason why some people say you “can’t lose” with this trade.
You either buy a stock for a better price than it’s worth today…
Or you get paid to trade just for holding cash in your account.
Are you beginning to understand why options trading is so exciting?
You’ll discover there’s an option for just about every scenario you may find yourself in.
Picture this…
The Fed is meeting this week to discuss the possibility of raising interest rates. You’re not exactly sure what this means for the overall direction of the stock market.
Will it go up or down … you’re just not sure which.
Guess what?
There’s an option for that.
There’s a specific type of option that can allow for a high probability of profit even if you have no idea which way the market is going.
To make money with this trade, the market just has to MOVE.
This trade is perfect for the ultra-volatile environment we’re in now.
Stocks go up big one day and down the next. It’s a roller coaster, and it spooks investors out of the market.
That’s a shame … because options give you power over this environment.
There’s an options trade that I liken to wielding a shotgun full of lead pellets.
Imagine you’re hunting. You get close to your target. It doesn’t matter which way it runs … with a shotgun, it’s as good as dead.
You can do the same thing with stocks.
If you’re trading before a high-volatility event (like earnings, Fed days or the release of economic data like unemployment and inflation), you can use this “shotgun” trade to potentially profit whether the market goes up, or down.
I love this kind of trading … because you don’t have to be right to make money.
You don’t even have to guess. You just have to pull the trigger.
“But Mike, what if the market doesn’t move at all?”
Are you going to make me say it again?
Yes, there’s an option for that too.
There’s an elite kind of options trade that’s a little more complicated … but it can literally pay you when the market does absolutely nothing at all.
Yes, this trade makes you money when the market moves sideways.
Whereas “shotgun trades” are perfect for bear markets, these “sideways options” are perfect when markets are calm.
Here’s the thing…
I haven’t even begun to scratch the surface on all the different types of options trades that are available to you.
Quite frankly, most of them weren’t available to you until a couple years ago … not really.
Everything that’s happened in the stock market in the last couple years has been to the benefit of retail investors.
The only thing you need … is a guide.
And that’s where I come in.
Most people outside the financial universe don’t know me.
But everyone in the options world does.
I used to speak at all the big conferences … I’m famous among chart readers and technical analysts … and I’m a high-ranking member of the CMT Association, the world’s premier technical analysis firm.
I DON’T tell you this to brag.
I tell you so you can understand … when it comes to options trading, no one knows more than me.
I’m just one of three people who the New York Institute of Finance has allowed to teach its coveted, two-day seminar on technical analysis … over the last 60 years.
I also teach another two-day course on options trading. Again, both cost as much as $1,700.
So why on earth am I making my Options Master Class — based on the same course I teach there — available for 97% less money?
I already told you…
I love how popular options trading has become.
But I also know the world is full of bad actors and false prophets promising you 1,000% riches on some “get rich quick” program.
You’re not going to hear that from me.
I quite literally am the Chairman for the Ethics Committee at the Chartered Market Technicians Association … an organization that compromises the “who’s who” in the field of technical analysis.
When someone breaks a rule, they answer to me.
I know I may not look that intimidating, but as a rocket scientist during the Cold War, I quite literally held the power to blow up the planet with my little finger.
It made me who I am. I take stuff seriously. I take money seriously. And I applaud anyone trying to “break out” of the traditional financial hogwash we were sold as adults.
You know the kind I’m talking about … financial advisors who call themselves “fiduciaries,” pretending they have your best interest in mind.
I’m tired of hearing that B.S., and I know you are too.
Too many Americans are getting eaten at both ends — getting charged high fees with low performance. That’s why I’m doing something about it.
And it’s why my Options Master Class is not the only thing I’m going to give you today.
You see, I’m not JUST going to teach you how to trade options.
I’m going to tell you exactly which trades to make.
Rest assured, if you want to trade on your own, my Options Master Class gives you everything you need to do that.
But some people desire a bit more hand holding, and I’m happy to provide it.
I’ll explain…
When you sign up to get my Options Master Class today, I’m going to include a free subscription to my flagship level research advisory.
It’s called Market Leaders.
It’s unlike anything available anywhere else. Nothing like it has ever existed.
It contains specific recommendations on three different types of trades that will allow you to take sovereign control of your financial life.
Two of them are options … and one’s a bit different.
First, the options.
A bold claim? Maybe, but hear me out.
Every month, I’m going to reveal the #1 sector of the market using a specific indicator that I’ve mastered.
This indicator is called “relative strength.” I’m the world’s leading expert on it. In fact, I wrote the first book on this subject dedicated to retail investors.
Relative strength is a fancy term for “buy high and sell higher,” or what some traders refer to as momentum investing.
Here’s how it works…
Every month, there is one sector of the market that is “stronger” than any other.
So, each month, I’m going to tell you what that sector is … and I’m going to tell you an option to buy on it.
With this option, you can supercharge the return from the #1 investment in the world, every month.
Since this is the first time I’m making Market Leaders available to the public, I back tested this simple strategy across the last full three years of market data.
The evidence is clear … I saw trades that went up as high as 260%, 437% and even 471% in just one or two months using this trade.
Every month, you’ll have a new opportunity to achieve gains like this.
This is what’s possible by trading options on the #1sector of the market, every month.
And it’s a free benefit I’m giving you when you sign up for my Options Master Class today.
I’m not just going to send you one options trade per month.
I’m going to share a weekly trade with you, as well.
Or rather, my team will.
You see, when I managed money several years ago (over $200 million at one point), I hired an assistant to help me place every trade.
I’d find the trades … but it was her job to actually deploy the millions of dollars we had to invest, making sure to get filled at the best prices each day.
Her name is Amber Hestla. And after a decade, we’ve teamed up again to create the finest research service of its kind with Market Leaders.
Amber’s contribution is a weekly options trade that is so efficient … and so accurate, you could almost say it’s like “Magic Money.”
In fact, the first three times she shared this trade with Market Leaders, members saw gains of 13.21% in a day, 9.59% in five days and 8.7% in three days.
These may not sound like huge gains. But when you can see them every week, the gains can pile up.
Keep in mind, these gains are higher than the annual inflation rate. They’re also higher than the annual “yield” you can see on other conservative investments, like bonds, dividend stocks or T-bills.
The biggest difference? These aren’t annual payouts. They’re weekly.
So with these trades, you could’ve made better percentage returns in a week than some traders see all year.
Amber can find these trades because when it comes to trading, she brings a unique set of skills to the table.
Like me, she’s former military intelligence. She served in Iraq, and one of the many tasks she performed was literally detecting land mines.
She’s a risk management expert. But this also helps her identify things the market has “missed.”
You’ve probably heard of the “efficient market hypothesis.” This is the idea that every stock is priced “efficiently” based on all the available data.
But … that’s not really true.
Investors exploit mispricings in the stock market all the time to find stocks that are trading for less than they’re worth.
Amber does this same, but she does it in the options market.
To find “Magic Money” trades, Amber exploits mispricings and inefficiencies in the options market.
It can take her hours to search for and find these trades — after all, these are mispricings no one else in the market is aware of — but she does it for Market Leaders members every week.
These trades don’t cost you anything. In fact, they’re one of those special types of trades that PAY YOU for having cash in your account.
And they’re fast. Real fast. When all goes according to plan, as it usually does (at the time of this writing, her trades are four for five), these trades usually wrap up in a couple of days.
Plus, there’s one final trade type I’ll share with you.
I’m including a full-fledged, Wall Street-level hedge fund strategy with your subscription, the moment you join today.
This is a strategy you can manage your entire portfolio with.
I say that, because it’s the exact strategy Amber and I used when we managed over $200 million together.
We used to charge investors a 2% fee, on a $100,000 minimum investment. So, it “cost” at least $2,000 a year.
With Market Leaders, we’re giving it to you for free.
Seriously, this is the best $47 you could ever spend in your life.
This final strategy uses a unique type of investment that has taken the world by storm over the last decade.
Don’t worry, it’s not crypto.
They’re actually ETFs.
Amber and I actually created one of the original ETF-only investment funds. In fact, we were among the very first.
Why did we do it? Because we were tired of watching people get robbed, investing in mutual funds that have high fees with low performance.
ETFs are superior to these investments in almost every way. The fees are lower, they trade more in sync with their underlying investments, and they have none of the “hidden” fees investors unwittingly pay when they “pool” their money with other investors at mutual funds.
Frankly, mutual funds are scam. And it’s sickening, because just as many Americans still invest in these rotten securities as they did 20 years ago. $20 trillion in U.S. household wealth is tied up in them.
So, I did something about it.
With my strategy, using ETFs, we’re able to achieve something that most “professionals” say is impossible.
Better returns, with less risk.
A back test of this strategy between 2019 and 2021 showed a 100% return on your money, which outperformed the market by a wide margin. The best part … it almost completely sidestepped the market wipeout in 2020 when stocks fell 35%. In fact, this strategy never dipped more than 10%, on its way to returning more than 100%.
It found all these winning trades and more:
Believe it or not, all of these gains were opened and closed in just six months or less.
And it’s just one of the many benefits you receive when you join Market Leaders today.
And I’m proud to share it with you … for free!
That’s right, when you sign up for my Options Master Class, you’ll get one free year of Market Leaders.
With Market Leaders, you’ll get my proprietary strategy with trade recommendations each month, and so much more, including:
It’s all here waiting for you when you sign up today!
But I won’t stop there.
The financial world is littered with secrets that were once only available to the 1%.
My options trading secrets are just a few of them.
In Market Leaders, the goal is to pull back the curtain and share as many with you as possible, so you can find the right investments for your needs.
This investment has been in an uptrend since 1991 and shows no signs of slowing down.
No wonder so many shrewd investors want a piece of it!
But you don’t even need to be wealthy to get in on this consistent income-generating opportunity.
I uncover why value investing worked in the 1980’s (since we didn’t have anything better to go by).
But now, trading ETFs has taken conservative investing to the next level.
You’ll also discover why you should say goodbye to mutual funds (unless you want to pay more and likely end up with less).
Picking the strongest ETFs to buy each month is what Market Leaders is all about.
But equally important are the ETFs you should avoid at all costs.
Ironically, these are 3 of the most popular ETFs investors trade nowadays.
Discover what most people don’t know about them, and you can have a rare and powerful investing advantage.
One of the biggest culprits of lost income for everyday investors is the U.S. government.
Once you generate income from your investments, I’ll show you how to keep it ... legally.
Most people never even think about this.
In this report, I’ll help you pinpoint the biggest income-stealers out there and show you how to avoid them.
Earlier I told you about my colleague Amber’s “Magic Money” strategy to trade weekly options that can generate steady income with low risk.
In this premium special report, Amber details the story behind her trading strategy and how you can use it to beat inflation, capture yields of 8-12% almost every week, and have fun while doing it!
These 5 reports hold hold a $595 value, but the secrets inside are worth so much more.
They’re yours free when you sign up for my Options Master Class … along with a full year of Market Leaders.
When you consider the value of these reports…
A year of Market Leaders, worth $199…
And access to my Options Master Class, which costs $1,689 when I teach it in New York…
Then the total value of your purchase today is $2,483.
And I’m making it all available to you for just $47.
It’s the best deal in the financial world.
Frankly, it’s a steal.
I won’t make any money on this deal. We’re spending a LOT more than $47 to get this message out to people.
That’s fine. Market Leaders isn’t the only service I publish. My hope is, you’ll like what you see so much, you’ll choose to subscribe to one of my other services.
That means I’m on the hook to give you the best performance imaginable.
But I’m doing something else to make this a no-brainer.
If you decide that every red cent of your $47 purchase isn’t worth the world-class experience I aim to offer in Market Leaders, you’ll entitled to a full refund.
Your subscription is good for one whole year.
And so is your refund, period.
Yes…
You can cancel anytime in the next 365 days and get your money back.
Why would I make such an offer?
Well for one, I can afford it.
Again, I’m one of the world’s top traders. I’m not hurting financially.
I do stuff like this because retirement didn’t suit me. I got bored sitting at home doing nothing. And I already traveled to more countries than I can name when I served in the military. I had my fun. These days, I get my enjoyment from teaching people, and helping others.
Secondly, I make you this offer so you can know I am 100% serious about helping you reach your financial goals.
Think about it … I wouldn’t make you this offer if I wasn’t 100% confident you were going to love everything you get. Between the course … the service … and the investment reports … I’ve made sure everything is absolutely perfect, so you subscribe for a second year … and hopefully become a lifetime member.
Either way, your first year is protected by my 100% Satisfaction Guarantee, for the full year.
In almost no time, you can be on your way to greater financial success while ushering in a whole new stream of easy income.
And keep in mind if you decide my Options Master Class isn’t right for you, I’ll refund your entire $47, no questions asked.
But those bonus reports? They’re yours to keep, no matter what.
I’m excited to show you how to trade options, make great money and have fun along the way!
Don’t rob yourself of this opportunity.
If you stop and think about it, you have nothing to lose.
Sign up now, while you have this webpage open.
I look forward to hearing from you.

P.S. Don’t assume you’ll get to this later — save your spot now.
