Anyone still watching this thread. I ordered the 14.95 book which is an excellent primer on Options...but is more of a pre-cursor to sales of his video, software, fax hotline, etc. God, I hate (but am somehow always intrigued) by these seemingly outlandish claims and "guarantees". I'm tempted to buy the video...($72.00), the software which is supposed to pick trades with up to 87.5% probability of being winners is a mere (695.00) [I'd say not a bad price if it did what it promises :)] which is expensive but not much more than some of the other software out there like OptionVue, etc. But ouch...his OEX trade fax alert subscription is 295.00/month.... Man those better be good alerts... which of course...one good one per month would more than pay for the subscription.... but a lot to pay for a Guru's advice... So....has anyone actually used Fishback's system, watched the video, used the Software...subscribed to the Fax alert...? Would love to hear both positive and negative experiences...more than opinions about being too good to be true...i'd like to hear from someone who actually has seen the stuff hands on... anyone out here? Some of his stuff seems to be similar to Jon Schillers' 2 sided covered short spreads...using 2 sigma...for calls and puts...supposedly with the OEX only going outside 2 sigma about 5% of all months...
