What benefits can I get from this financial-instruments training site?
We offer advanced training on derivative instruments, supported by a daily trading journal that records all trades carried out within 15 minutes of execution.
The journal doesn’t just list trades: it explains in detail the trading rationale, allowing participants to understand stock-market dynamics and develop real independence in managing their savings.
The strategies covered span a wide range of approaches: from call and put options, to income-generation strategies, up to hedging and volatility-management techniques. Particular attention is given to risk management and to adapting strategies to different market conditions.
What annual returns can I expect using this methodology?
If your goal is to achieve 40–50% annual returns, this service is not for you.
Our priority is risk management, not chasing unrealistic returns. Results depend largely on market conditions.
About 90% of traders, including some professional managers, underestimate the impact of volatility on portfolios. The strategies taught will allow you to recognize the effects of rising implied volatility, understand its impact on performance, and obtain a consistent and sustainable return on capital.
Which trading techniques will I learn and how do I apply them?
The training path includes futures and options strategies, with an operating duration between 10 and 30 days for each strategy.
The approach is mainly short-term and, in the final phase of the strategy, 4–5 trades per session may be executed, only when favorable conditions appear.
You will learn to:
read and interpret the trading journal;
use options greeks (Delta, Vega, etc.);
adapt strategies to sideways, bullish, or bearish markets;
assess potential swings and their impact on invested capital.
What practical benefits can I get from these strategies?
This methodology enables you to manage your savings independently, even in the presence of strong swings in equity or bond markets.
For example, a portfolio of 10-year government bonds can undergo value changes of up to 20% following an increase in interest rates.
Options strategies allow you to:
protect capital;
reduce exposure to market fluctuations;
optimize the risk/return profile.
Practical examples and real cases will guide you in making more aware and informed decisions.
How long does the training course last?
The program lasts from 3 to 6 months and enables you to operate in all market conditions, including periods of strong stress, fear, and panic, which are essential to test the robustness of a strategy.
During the course, both technical and psychological aspects are explored, indispensable for approaching trading in an aware and professional way.
Is it possible to speak daily with Dr. Antonio Gnisci?
The course includes access to the daily trading journal, which indicates instruments and trading strategies.
Direct communication with Dr. Antonio Gnisci is provided in special situations or when operational needs arise.
How much time do I need to dedicate each day?
The analysis of the trading journal can be done:
continuously during the day, or
just once a day, preferably in the evening.
Once you have gained autonomy, you will need to execute trades during market sessions. The methodology applies to both intraday trading and multiday, stepping in when the market shows inefficient conditions.
Do you use classic technical-analysis indicators?
We do not use traditional indicators such as RSI, MACD, or Bollinger Bands, because we consider them not very effective for identifying institutional operators’ decisions.
Fundamental analysis, typical of long-term investing, is not part of our approach.
Instead, we focus on:
implied and historical volatility;
open interest;
options money flows;
in-house quantitative tools.
How many trades does a strategy involve?
Each strategy lasts between 10 and 30 days and ends at options expiration or upon reaching the preset profit target.
Who is the course for?
The course is for those who want to manage their savings independently.
Basic knowledge of derivatives is required, as these are advanced leveraged instruments.
For those who need a refresher, we offer a summary of the core concepts.
Can I enroll without knowing options?
You need to know at least:
call and put options;
futures;
open interest;
options strategies and greeks;
order types;
volume profile and market profile;
market volatility.
These topics are easy to find online; if needed, you can contact us for support.
How can I enroll?
By clicking the “Buy” button at the top right you will get access to the trading journal for 30 days.
At expiration, access can be renewed for a further 30 days. The period starts from the close of the strategy currently in progress.
What is the cost of the monthly fee?
The fee for access to the daily trading journal is currently 980 euros per month.
How does the fee work in the following months?
Access starts from the end of the strategy in progress. From that moment the 30 effective days begin, on the basis of which the minimum monthly result of 1% is assessed.
What is the reference capital for the return?
The assumed capital is 40,000 dollars.
If the monthly return is below 1%, the fee is extended to the next 30 days.
In the first 90 days, if the overall result is below 3%, the amount paid is refunded according to the stated conditions.
Do you provide the basic teaching material?
