Happy Monday! |
I wanted to reach out at the start of the week because the market environment right now is creating some very specific opportunities for disciplined options traders. |
Here's what's unfolding beneath the surface right now: |
The Dow ,S&P 500, and Nasdaq are fresh off their third third-straight weekly loss, as investors grapple with elevated oil prices and geopolitical instability in the Middle East. The S&P 500 logged its lowest close of 2026 on Friday and only has three weekly wins to its name on the year. Oil prices –both West Texas Intermediate and Brent crude -- spent last week hovering around $100, sending energy stocks higher. Any sector exposed to fuel (think airline, travel, and infrastructure) has suffered. The Iran war has thrown a wrench into the Federal Reserve's plans, with the central bank set to meet this week March 17-18. Per CME's FedWatch tool, there's a 99.1% chance the Fed keeps interest rates steady. Investors will be eager to hear from Fed Chair Jerome Powell about the Fed's dot plot for the coming months. We are only three weeks removed from Nvidia (NVDA) reporting a stellar earnings report yet falling post-earnings. Ahead of the company's famed GTC conference, all eyes will be on the semiconductor staple. Prior to the Iran war, the talk of Wall Street to start 2026 was the tech sector rotation away from AI. Is there still more to squeeze out of the overbaked valuations? In the same way that the 'Liberation Day' lows of April 2025 brought frantic 'buy the dip' mentality through the summer, investors should be ready to go bargain shopping this spring, the moment there is indication that the geopolitical tensions in the Middle East are deescalating.

This kind of uneven, rotation-driven market is exactly where Vertical Options Trader tends to shine. |
If that caught your attention, let's dive in. |
If you've ever tried buying calls or puts to speculate on a stock's direction, you've probably learned that it's much harder in practice than it sounds. |
And in markets like the one we're seeing as Q1 wraps up, directional trading can become even more challenging. That's not a personal failure… it's simply the nature of the market. |
Many traders run into the same frustration. But there are ways to control risk, limit downside, and improve consistency when trading options, regardless of which way the market moves! |
And yes, that can still mean targeting triple-digit gains. |
That may sound unrealistic to most traders, but it hasn't been the case for members of Vertical Options Trader. |
Several years ago, we quietly brought a small group of options traders into a service built around a simple idea: defined risk, controlled exposure, and structured opportunities for profit. |
The results spoke for themselves, proving one important thing… |
It is possible to grow a portfolio steadily while keeping risk clearly defined! |
Now, we're opening the door to another limited group of traders to see firsthand how our vertical spread approach can change the way they trade options. |
Before going any further, I'll share something my father, Bernie Schaeffer, has always emphasized when it comes to helping our clients succeed: execution matters. |
Here are two recent closeouts: |
📈 453.9% on Alphabet (Class A) |
📈 101.3% on IonQ |
Those weren't hypothetical results — they were real trades that delivered outsized gains through structured spreads. |
What makes this service even more compelling is that Bernie personally selects every setup. He's now preparing his next round of recommendations for March, and I want you to be positioned to receive them. |
As you may know, Bernie has more than half a century of hands-on experience navigating every type of market environment. And the weeks ahead are shaping up to be particularly well-suited for traders using a disciplined vertical spread strategy. |
One of the biggest advantages of this approach is that it doesn't rely on predicting market direction. |
Instead, it's built around structure. |
Whether a stock trends higher or lower, vertical spreads are designed to limit risk upfront while allowing for meaningful upside if prices move within a reasonable range. |
In simple terms, the goal is to reduce the total cost of entering a trade by pairing purchased options with written options. |
That structure defines your maximum risk before you ever enter the trade. |
If the options expire worthless, losses are capped at the difference between what you paid and what you collected — no surprises, no open-ended risk. |
And in the ideal scenario, the underlying stock moves moderately, allowing the options you own to gain value while the options you sold expire worthless. |
That's how vertical spreads can work in your favor on both sides of the trade. |
Your First Batch of Trades Could Arrive on Friday, Mar. 20! |
With Vertical Options Trader, you're entitled to at most 5 profit-primed trade recommendations each month, and each recommendation will hit your inbox on the third Friday of each month. |
You'll want to keep an eye out for that email because every second you waste, potential gains will be wasted. |
I talked with Bernie… we'd like to open up discounted access to this service for the first 20 traders. |
We'll take 95% off the annual $1,995 dropping your subscription fee down to just $95. |
BONUS GIFT |
This is not just a 12-month subscription. I wanted to do something to make this offer truly stand out in importance… so, I'd like to offer you LIFETIME access to Vertical Options Trader. |
That small one-time fee above would provide you with up to 60 trade recommendations every year. No renewal fees, no hidden costs. YOU decide when to stop receiving Bernie's recs. |
