The trading plan

  1. Look for agreement.Monitor SPY each minute. Look for trend and momentum to turn in the same direction.
  2. Take the direction.Buy a call for a bullish signal or a put for a bearish signal, subject to the configured entry filters.
  3. Manage the exit.Send protective orders to the broker after a fill. Use the configured stop, target and trailing rules.
  4. Finish the session.Close positions before the market closes. A daily loss limit blocks new entries when reached.

Questions

Short answers to what people ask first.

Does it trade real money?

Yes. It places real orders in your own Interactive Brokers account, which stays under your control.

Can I lose money?

Yes. An option can lose its full cost, and in a fast market the price can jump past a stop.

What if there's no trade that day?

It trades only when its signal lines up, and some days it never does. The unlocked day is still used.

Can I approve each trade?

Yes. By default each trade waits up to a minute for you to confirm it. Autopilot lets it trade on its own.

What does it trade?

SPY options that expire the same day, during US market hours only.

How do I unlock a day?

Open ORB Trader, enter the exact email you paid with on its backstage page, and press UNLOCK TODAY on a trading day. One day comes off your balance.

Is this investment advice?

No. ORB Trader is software. You decide whether and how to use it.
