Who is Tom Gentile?

A: Tom Gentile is a 25-year investor and trader who is best-known as America’s #1 Pattern Trader.

Tom started his investment career back in 1986 before taking a position at the American Stock Exchange. In 1993, Tom and a group of partners founded an educational company called Optionetics, which quickly established a stellar reputation in the field. Eventually Optionetics was sold to optionsXpress (and later still to Charles Schwab) for several million dollars.

Tom’s passion is teaching investors about the market and the role options play in becoming one of the elite 1-percenters. Tom has taught his secrets to over 300,000 traders in a variety of settings, including seminars, workshops, and sponsored events like The Money Show. Today he is a featured guest on CNBC, Fox, Bloomberg, and Reuters. Tom is also a published author and co-author of more than a dozen books, including “Trade Like a 1-Percenter.”

What level of clearance do I need for these trades?

A: You’ll need to have an account that’s cleared to trade options. You may already have this in place. If not, you can get this sorted out by answering just a few questions, but you will need about 48 hours before you can place your first trade.

Most options firms require a minimum deposit of $2,000 to $3,000, and to get started it generally takes only the time required to get your money cleared through the broker.

Most of our Alpha-9 trades will require at least a Level 2 clearance (though that level is named differently by different brokers).
As you become more comfortable with options, you may want to trade strategies that require a Level 3 clearance. So be sure to get the highest level of authorization you can.

How much money do I need to get in to each trade?

A: Alpha-9 Trader is the only service out there that gives you a brand new opportunity to double your money on every single day the stock market’s open. And the best part is… you’ll never risk more than $500 on each trade… and sometimes far less.

How long will we have these trades open?

A: Never more than 30 days. Tom programmed his Alpha-9 program to reveal stock moves that have repeated 90 to 100% of the time… for the last decade… within 30 days or less from any point in time. That means we set all pf our trade setups for no more than 30 days from the entry date. And while Alpha-9 will NEVER set an appointment beyond 30 trading days, we may hit the profit-taking exit ahead of time. In that case, Tom may reschedule appointments to maximize profit potential.

When that happens, he’ll let you know by urgent email alert. Those instructions will look like this:

Action to Take:
SELL-to-Close: Example Stock Inc. (NYSE:XX) XX September 18, 2015 $35
Calls(XX150918C00035000) at 100% or better.

What if I miss an email bulletin?

A: If you miss an entry date, don’t worry. As long as you can still enter the trade at Tom’s targeted price, you still have the opportunity to get in. If you can’t get in at Tom’s recommended price, DON’T force the trade – Tom’s instructions are very precise in order to keep your costs and your risk as low as possible. Alpha-9 generates dozens of possible trades every single trading day of the year. There will be another trade coming down the pike very soon, and you don’t have to participate in every single trade to take full advantage of your Alpha-9 Trader subscription.

If you don’t want to miss a single Email Bulletin, the Money Map team has created a text message alert system. That way we can notify your cell phone, along with your email, that an alert has been issued, so you don’t have to wait around at your computer for hours at a time for these alerts to arrive. Click here to sign up for text alerts.

To be clear, you don’t have to use the text message alert system if you don’t want to. It’s just another way for you to stay connected with Alpha-9 Trader.

How will I get your trade instructions?

A: With every trade, Tom will spell out three main things:

  • TARGET PRICE for entry
  • PROFIT TARGET for exit
  • TIME TARGET for exit

That’s everything you need to know in advance. Exactly when to get in… what your goal is, and when to get out. And, of course, exactly how to set up every trade based on that exact information.

Here’s what a normal new trade recommendation will look like:

Action to Take:
BUY-to-Open: Example Stock Inc. (NYSE:XX) XX September 18, 2015 $35 Calls(XX150918C00035000) at $3.50 or less.

Exit Strategy:
SELL-to-Close: Example Stock Inc. (NYSE:XX) XX September 18, 2015 $35 Calls(XX150918C00035000) at 100% or better.

What are Alpha channels and how do they turn into cash?

A: There’s three main goals behind Alpha Channels:

  1. Find a way to eliminate the lag associated with most technical analysis. In other words – convert trading signals into trades any investor can make fast.
  2. Create a system that can make money in up markets or in down markets with strictly limited risk.
  3. Generate daily plays, where every single opportunity offers the potential to double your money.

Each Alpha Channel consists of momentum, suppression, and velocity trends.

And, of course, attached to each distinct Alpha Channel is a probability threshold that allows us to pinpoint trading opportunities.

A single stock generates a MINIMUM of 23,400 Alpha Channels every day the market is open.

We focus on S&P 500 stocks. All 500 of them. That means we’re looking at 11.7 million Alpha Channels per day.

So over 12 days and 500 different stocks, all of them creating 23,400 patterns a day – you’ve got a minimum of 140 million Alpha Channels.

Consequently, any single Alpha Channel is invisible to the naked eye. And because Alpha Channels are proprietary, they are also invisible to every other trading platform on Wall Street.

Now, about nine years ago, we made a breakthrough discovery regarding Alpha Channels. We found that when three specific Alpha Channels lined up in a very specific way, it gave us the signal we we’re looking for. These channels are called:

  • Alpha-Up
  • Alpha-Down
  • Alpha-Sideways

When these three specific Alpha Channels line up in a very specific way, they form a highly accurate trading signal.

You’ve got the Up Channel and the Sideways Channel lining up in perfect unison, and then stacking on top of the Down Channel.

We call this a Triple Stack Compression.

And it means that the price of the underlying stock is artificially suppressed in a major way. In other words, it’s poised for an explosive and violent surge upward

What kind of trades will we be making?

Tom typically recommends simple directional options trades. That means he’ll recommend buying call options when he anticipates the price of the underlying stock will go up, and buying put options when he anticipates the price of the underlying stock will go down.

The most complex type of trade Tom will typically recommend is a “loophole trade.” Also known as a vertical spread, the loophole trade is executed by buying one option and selling another option of the same type (either calls or puts) with the same expiration date, but different strike prices.

For example, in a bullish loophole trade, Tom will recommend buying one call option and selling another at a higher strike price but with a lower premium to offset some of the cost (and risk) associated with buying the more expensive option. It’s a net debit trade, meaning your account will be debited the difference between the two options. Both trades are placed with your broker as a single transaction – meaning you pay a single commission for both moves.

If it sounds confusing, don’t worry. Tom will give you step-by-step instructions with each trade, including a trade video where he will walk you through the process of placing the order with your broker.

Who is Tom Gentile?

A: Tom Gentile is a 25-year investor and trader who is best-known as America’s #1 Pattern Trader.

Tom started his investment career back in 1986 before taking a position at the American Stock Exchange. In 1993, Tom and a group of partners founded an educational company called Optionetics, which quickly established a stellar reputation in the field. Eventually Optionetics was sold to optionsXpress (and later still to Charles Schwab) for several million dollars.

Tom’s passion is teaching investors about the market and the role options play in becoming one of the elite 1-percenters. Tom has taught his secrets to over 300,000 traders in a variety of settings, including seminars, workshops, and sponsored events like The Money Show. Today he is a featured guest on CNBC, Fox, Bloomberg, and Reuters. Tom is also a published author and co-author of more than a dozen books, including “Trade Like a 1-Percenter.”

What level of clearance do I need for these trades?

A: You’ll need to have an account that’s cleared to trade options. You may already have this in place. If not, you can get this sorted out by answering just a few questions, but you will need about 48 hours before you can place your first trade.

Most options firms require a minimum deposit of $2,000 to $3,000, and to get started it generally takes only the time required to get your money cleared through the broker.

Most of our Alpha-9 trades will require at least a Level 2 clearance (though that level is named differently by different brokers).
As you become more comfortable with options, you may want to trade strategies that require a Level 3 clearance. So be sure to get the highest level of authorization you can.

How much money do I need to get in to each trade?

A: Alpha-9 Trader is the only service out there that gives you a brand new opportunity to double your money on every single day the stock market’s open. And the best part is… you’ll never risk more than $500 on each trade… and sometimes far less.

How long will we have these trades open?

A: Never more than 30 days. Tom programmed his Alpha-9 program to reveal stock moves that have repeated 90 to 100% of the time… for the last decade… within 30 days or less from any point in time. That means we set all pf our trade setups for no more than 30 days from the entry date. And while Alpha-9 will NEVER set an appointment beyond 30 trading days, we may hit the profit-taking exit ahead of time. In that case, Tom may reschedule appointments to maximize profit potential.

When that happens, he’ll let you know by urgent email alert. Those instructions will look like this:

Action to Take:
SELL-to-Close: Example Stock Inc. (NYSE:XX) XX September 18, 2015 $35
Calls(XX150918C00035000) at 100% or better.

What if I miss an email bulletin?

A: If you miss an entry date, don’t worry. As long as you can still enter the trade at Tom’s targeted price, you still have the opportunity to get in. If you can’t get in at Tom’s recommended price, DON’T force the trade – Tom’s instructions are very precise in order to keep your costs and your risk as low as possible. Alpha-9 generates dozens of possible trades every single trading day of the year. There will be another trade coming down the pike very soon, and you don’t have to participate in every single trade to take full advantage of your Alpha-9 Trader subscription.

If you don’t want to miss a single Email Bulletin, the Money Map team has created a text message alert system. That way we can notify your cell phone, along with your email, that an alert has been issued, so you don’t have to wait around at your computer for hours at a time for these alerts to arrive. Click here to sign up for text alerts.

To be clear, you don’t have to use the text message alert system if you don’t want to. It’s just another way for you to stay connected with Alpha-9 Trader.

How will I get your trade instructions?

A: With every trade, Tom will spell out three main things:

  • TARGET PRICE for entry
  • PROFIT TARGET for exit
  • TIME TARGET for exit

That’s everything you need to know in advance. Exactly when to get in… what your goal is, and when to get out. And, of course, exactly how to set up every trade based on that exact information.

Here’s what a normal new trade recommendation will look like:

Action to Take:
BUY-to-Open: Example Stock Inc. (NYSE:XX) XX September 18, 2015 $35 Calls(XX150918C00035000) at $3.50 or less.

Exit Strategy:
SELL-to-Close: Example Stock Inc. (NYSE:XX) XX September 18, 2015 $35 Calls(XX150918C00035000) at 100% or better.

What are Alpha channels and how do they turn into cash?

A: There’s three main goals behind Alpha Channels:

  1. Find a way to eliminate the lag associated with most technical analysis. In other words – convert trading signals into trades any investor can make fast.
  2. Create a system that can make money in up markets or in down markets with strictly limited risk.
  3. Generate daily plays, where every single opportunity offers the potential to double your money.

Each Alpha Channel consists of momentum, suppression, and velocity trends.

And, of course, attached to each distinct Alpha Channel is a probability threshold that allows us to pinpoint trading opportunities.

A single stock generates a MINIMUM of 23,400 Alpha Channels every day the market is open.

We focus on S&P 500 stocks. All 500 of them. That means we’re looking at 11.7 million Alpha Channels per day.

So over 12 days and 500 different stocks, all of them creating 23,400 patterns a day – you’ve got a minimum of 140 million Alpha Channels.

Consequently, any single Alpha Channel is invisible to the naked eye. And because Alpha Channels are proprietary, they are also invisible to every other trading platform on Wall Street.

Now, about nine years ago, we made a breakthrough discovery regarding Alpha Channels. We found that when three specific Alpha Channels lined up in a very specific way, it gave us the signal we we’re looking for. These channels are called:

  • Alpha-Up
  • Alpha-Down
  • Alpha-Sideways

When these three specific Alpha Channels line up in a very specific way, they form a highly accurate trading signal.

You’ve got the Up Channel and the Sideways Channel lining up in perfect unison, and then stacking on top of the Down Channel.

We call this a Triple Stack Compression.

And it means that the price of the underlying stock is artificially suppressed in a major way. In other words, it’s poised for an explosive and violent surge upward

What kind of trades will we be making?

Tom typically recommends simple directional options trades. That means he’ll recommend buying call options when he anticipates the price of the underlying stock will go up, and buying put options when he anticipates the price of the underlying stock will go down.

The most complex type of trade Tom will typically recommend is a “loophole trade.” Also known as a vertical spread, the loophole trade is executed by buying one option and selling another option of the same type (either calls or puts) with the same expiration date, but different strike prices.

For example, in a bullish loophole trade, Tom will recommend buying one call option and selling another at a higher strike price but with a lower premium to offset some of the cost (and risk) associated with buying the more expensive option. It’s a net debit trade, meaning your account will be debited the difference between the two options. Both trades are placed with your broker as a single transaction – meaning you pay a single commission for both moves.

If it sounds confusing, don’t worry. Tom will give you step-by-step instructions with each trade, including a trade video where he will walk you through the process of placing the order with your broker.

Who is Tom Gentile?

A: Tom Gentile is a 25-year investor and trader who is best-known as America’s #1 Pattern Trader.

Tom started his investment career back in 1986 before taking a position at the American Stock Exchange. In 1993, Tom and a group of partners founded an educational company called Optionetics, which quickly established a stellar reputation in the field. Eventually Optionetics was sold to optionsXpress (and later still to Charles Schwab) for several million dollars.

Tom’s passion is teaching investors about the market and the role options play in becoming one of the elite 1-percenters. Tom has taught his secrets to over 300,000 traders in a variety of settings, including seminars, workshops, and sponsored events like The Money Show. Today he is a featured guest on CNBC, Fox, Bloomberg, and Reuters. Tom is also a published author and co-author of more than a dozen books, including “Trade Like a 1-Percenter.”

What level of clearance do I need for these trades?

A: You’ll need to have an account that’s cleared to trade options. You may already have this in place. If not, you can get this sorted out by answering just a few questions, but you will need about 48 hours before you can place your first trade.

Most options firms require a minimum deposit of $2,000 to $3,000, and to get started it generally takes only the time required to get your money cleared through the broker.

Most of our Alpha-9 trades will require at least a Level 2 clearance (though that level is named differently by different brokers).
As you become more comfortable with options, you may want to trade strategies that require a Level 3 clearance. So be sure to get the highest level of authorization you can.

How much money do I need to get in to each trade?

A: Alpha-9 Trader is the only service out there that gives you a brand new opportunity to double your money on every single day the stock market’s open. And the best part is… you’ll never risk more than $500 on each trade… and sometimes far less.

How long will we have these trades open?

A: Never more than 30 days. Tom programmed his Alpha-9 program to reveal stock moves that have repeated 90 to 100% of the time… for the last decade… within 30 days or less from any point in time. That means we set all pf our trade setups for no more than 30 days from the entry date. And while Alpha-9 will NEVER set an appointment beyond 30 trading days, we may hit the profit-taking exit ahead of time. In that case, Tom may reschedule appointments to maximize profit potential.

When that happens, he’ll let you know by urgent email alert. Those instructions will look like this:

Action to Take:
SELL-to-Close: Example Stock Inc. (NYSE:XX) XX September 18, 2015 $35
Calls(XX150918C00035000) at 100% or better.

What if I miss an email bulletin?

A: If you miss an entry date, don’t worry. As long as you can still enter the trade at Tom’s targeted price, you still have the opportunity to get in. If you can’t get in at Tom’s recommended price, DON’T force the trade – Tom’s instructions are very precise in order to keep your costs and your risk as low as possible. Alpha-9 generates dozens of possible trades every single trading day of the year. There will be another trade coming down the pike very soon, and you don’t have to participate in every single trade to take full advantage of your Alpha-9 Trader subscription.

If you don’t want to miss a single Email Bulletin, the Money Map team has created a text message alert system. That way we can notify your cell phone, along with your email, that an alert has been issued, so you don’t have to wait around at your computer for hours at a time for these alerts to arrive. Click here to sign up for text alerts.

To be clear, you don’t have to use the text message alert system if you don’t want to. It’s just another way for you to stay connected with Alpha-9 Trader.

How will I get your trade instructions?

A: With every trade, Tom will spell out three main things:

  • TARGET PRICE for entry
  • PROFIT TARGET for exit
  • TIME TARGET for exit

That’s everything you need to know in advance. Exactly when to get in… what your goal is, and when to get out. And, of course, exactly how to set up every trade based on that exact information.

Here’s what a normal new trade recommendation will look like:

Action to Take:
BUY-to-Open: Example Stock Inc. (NYSE:XX) XX September 18, 2015 $35 Calls(XX150918C00035000) at $3.50 or less.

Exit Strategy:
SELL-to-Close: Example Stock Inc. (NYSE:XX) XX September 18, 2015 $35 Calls(XX150918C00035000) at 100% or better.

What are Alpha channels and how do they turn into cash?

A: There’s three main goals behind Alpha Channels:

  1. Find a way to eliminate the lag associated with most technical analysis. In other words – convert trading signals into trades any investor can make fast.
  2. Create a system that can make money in up markets or in down markets with strictly limited risk.
  3. Generate daily plays, where every single opportunity offers the potential to double your money.

Each Alpha Channel consists of momentum, suppression, and velocity trends.

And, of course, attached to each distinct Alpha Channel is a probability threshold that allows us to pinpoint trading opportunities.

A single stock generates a MINIMUM of 23,400 Alpha Channels every day the market is open.

We focus on S&P 500 stocks. All 500 of them. That means we’re looking at 11.7 million Alpha Channels per day.

So over 12 days and 500 different stocks, all of them creating 23,400 patterns a day – you’ve got a minimum of 140 million Alpha Channels.

Consequently, any single Alpha Channel is invisible to the naked eye. And because Alpha Channels are proprietary, they are also invisible to every other trading platform on Wall Street.

Now, about nine years ago, we made a breakthrough discovery regarding Alpha Channels. We found that when three specific Alpha Channels lined up in a very specific way, it gave us the signal we we’re looking for. These channels are called:

  • Alpha-Up
  • Alpha-Down
  • Alpha-Sideways

When these three specific Alpha Channels line up in a very specific way, they form a highly accurate trading signal.

You’ve got the Up Channel and the Sideways Channel lining up in perfect unison, and then stacking on top of the Down Channel.

We call this a Triple Stack Compression.

And it means that the price of the underlying stock is artificially suppressed in a major way. In other words, it’s poised for an explosive and violent surge upward

What kind of trades will we be making?

Tom typically recommends simple directional options trades. That means he’ll recommend buying call options when he anticipates the price of the underlying stock will go up, and buying put options when he anticipates the price of the underlying stock will go down.

The most complex type of trade Tom will typically recommend is a “loophole trade.” Also known as a vertical spread, the loophole trade is executed by buying one option and selling another option of the same type (either calls or puts) with the same expiration date, but different strike prices.

For example, in a bullish loophole trade, Tom will recommend buying one call option and selling another at a higher strike price but with a lower premium to offset some of the cost (and risk) associated with buying the more expensive option. It’s a net debit trade, meaning your account will be debited the difference between the two options. Both trades are placed with your broker as a single transaction – meaning you pay a single commission for both moves.

If it sounds confusing, don’t worry. Tom will give you step-by-step instructions with each trade, including a trade video where he will walk you through the process of placing the order with your broker.

Who is Tom Gentile?

A: Tom Gentile is a 25-year investor and trader who is best-known as America’s #1 Pattern Trader.

Tom started his investment career back in 1986 before taking a position at the American Stock Exchange. In 1993, Tom and a group of partners founded an educational company called Optionetics, which quickly established a stellar reputation in the field. Eventually Optionetics was sold to optionsXpress (and later still to Charles Schwab) for several million dollars.

Tom’s passion is teaching investors about the market and the role options play in becoming one of the elite 1-percenters. Tom has taught his secrets to over 300,000 traders in a variety of settings, including seminars, workshops, and sponsored events like The Money Show. Today he is a featured guest on CNBC, Fox, Bloomberg, and Reuters. Tom is also a published author and co-author of more than a dozen books, including “Trade Like a 1-Percenter.”

What level of clearance do I need for these trades?

A: You’ll need to have an account that’s cleared to trade options. You may already have this in place. If not, you can get this sorted out by answering just a few questions, but you will need about 48 hours before you can place your first trade.

Most options firms require a minimum deposit of $2,000 to $3,000, and to get started it generally takes only the time required to get your money cleared through the broker.

Most of our Alpha-9 trades will require at least a Level 2 clearance (though that level is named differently by different brokers).
As you become more comfortable with options, you may want to trade strategies that require a Level 3 clearance. So be sure to get the highest level of authorization you can.

How much money do I need to get in to each trade?

A: Alpha-9 Trader is the only service out there that gives you a brand new opportunity to double your money on every single day the stock market’s open. And the best part is… you’ll never risk more than $500 on each trade… and sometimes far less.

How long will we have these trades open?

A: Never more than 30 days. Tom programmed his Alpha-9 program to reveal stock moves that have repeated 90 to 100% of the time… for the last decade… within 30 days or less from any point in time. That means we set all pf our trade setups for no more than 30 days from the entry date. And while Alpha-9 will NEVER set an appointment beyond 30 trading days, we may hit the profit-taking exit ahead of time. In that case, Tom may reschedule appointments to maximize profit potential.

When that happens, he’ll let you know by urgent email alert. Those instructions will look like this:

Action to Take:
SELL-to-Close: Example Stock Inc. (NYSE:XX) XX September 18, 2015 $35
Calls(XX150918C00035000) at 100% or better.

What if I miss an email bulletin?

A: If you miss an entry date, don’t worry. As long as you can still enter the trade at Tom’s targeted price, you still have the opportunity to get in. If you can’t get in at Tom’s recommended price, DON’T force the trade – Tom’s instructions are very precise in order to keep your costs and your risk as low as possible. Alpha-9 generates dozens of possible trades every single trading day of the year. There will be another trade coming down the pike very soon, and you don’t have to participate in every single trade to take full advantage of your Alpha-9 Trader subscription.

If you don’t want to miss a single Email Bulletin, the Money Map team has created a text message alert system. That way we can notify your cell phone, along with your email, that an alert has been issued, so you don’t have to wait around at your computer for hours at a time for these alerts to arrive. Click here to sign up for text alerts.

To be clear, you don’t have to use the text message alert system if you don’t want to. It’s just another way for you to stay connected with Alpha-9 Trader.

How will I get your trade instructions?

A: With every trade, Tom will spell out three main things:

  • TARGET PRICE for entry
  • PROFIT TARGET for exit
  • TIME TARGET for exit

That’s everything you need to know in advance. Exactly when to get in… what your goal is, and when to get out. And, of course, exactly how to set up every trade based on that exact information.

Here’s what a normal new trade recommendation will look like:

Action to Take:
BUY-to-Open: Example Stock Inc. (NYSE:XX) XX September 18, 2015 $35 Calls(XX150918C00035000) at $3.50 or less.

Exit Strategy:
SELL-to-Close: Example Stock Inc. (NYSE:XX) XX September 18, 2015 $35 Calls(XX150918C00035000) at 100% or better.

What are Alpha channels and how do they turn into cash?

A: There’s three main goals behind Alpha Channels:

  1. Find a way to eliminate the lag associated with most technical analysis. In other words – convert trading signals into trades any investor can make fast.
  2. Create a system that can make money in up markets or in down markets with strictly limited risk.
  3. Generate daily plays, where every single opportunity offers the potential to double your money.

Each Alpha Channel consists of momentum, suppression, and velocity trends.

And, of course, attached to each distinct Alpha Channel is a probability threshold that allows us to pinpoint trading opportunities.

A single stock generates a MINIMUM of 23,400 Alpha Channels every day the market is open.

We focus on S&P 500 stocks. All 500 of them. That means we’re looking at 11.7 million Alpha Channels per day.

So over 12 days and 500 different stocks, all of them creating 23,400 patterns a day – you’ve got a minimum of 140 million Alpha Channels.

Consequently, any single Alpha Channel is invisible to the naked eye. And because Alpha Channels are proprietary, they are also invisible to every other trading platform on Wall Street.

Now, about nine years ago, we made a breakthrough discovery regarding Alpha Channels. We found that when three specific Alpha Channels lined up in a very specific way, it gave us the signal we we’re looking for. These channels are called:

  • Alpha-Up
  • Alpha-Down
  • Alpha-Sideways

When these three specific Alpha Channels line up in a very specific way, they form a highly accurate trading signal.

You’ve got the Up Channel and the Sideways Channel lining up in perfect unison, and then stacking on top of the Down Channel.

We call this a Triple Stack Compression.

And it means that the price of the underlying stock is artificially suppressed in a major way. In other words, it’s poised for an explosive and violent surge upward

What kind of trades will we be making?

Tom typically recommends simple directional options trades. That means he’ll recommend buying call options when he anticipates the price of the underlying stock will go up, and buying put options when he anticipates the price of the underlying stock will go down.

The most complex type of trade Tom will typically recommend is a “loophole trade.” Also known as a vertical spread, the loophole trade is executed by buying one option and selling another option of the same type (either calls or puts) with the same expiration date, but different strike prices.

For example, in a bullish loophole trade, Tom will recommend buying one call option and selling another at a higher strike price but with a lower premium to offset some of the cost (and risk) associated with buying the more expensive option. It’s a net debit trade, meaning your account will be debited the difference between the two options. Both trades are placed with your broker as a single transaction – meaning you pay a single commission for both moves.

If it sounds confusing, don’t worry. Tom will give you step-by-step instructions with each trade, including a trade video where he will walk you through the process of placing the order with your broker.

Who is Tom Gentile?

A: Tom Gentile is a 25-year investor and trader who is best-known as America’s #1 Pattern Trader.

Tom started his investment career back in 1986 before taking a position at the American Stock Exchange. In 1993, Tom and a group of partners founded an educational company called Optionetics, which quickly established a stellar reputation in the field. Eventually Optionetics was sold to optionsXpress (and later still to Charles Schwab) for several million dollars.

Tom’s passion is teaching investors about the market and the role options play in becoming one of the elite 1-percenters. Tom has taught his secrets to over 300,000 traders in a variety of settings, including seminars, workshops, and sponsored events like The Money Show. Today he is a featured guest on CNBC, Fox, Bloomberg, and Reuters. Tom is also a published author and co-author of more than a dozen books, including “Trade Like a 1-Percenter.”

What level of clearance do I need for these trades?

A: You’ll need to have an account that’s cleared to trade options. You may already have this in place. If not, you can get this sorted out by answering just a few questions, but you will need about 48 hours before you can place your first trade.

Most options firms require a minimum deposit of $2,000 to $3,000, and to get started it generally takes only the time required to get your money cleared through the broker.

Most of our Alpha-9 trades will require at least a Level 2 clearance (though that level is named differently by different brokers).
As you become more comfortable with options, you may want to trade strategies that require a Level 3 clearance. So be sure to get the highest level of authorization you can.

How much money do I need to get in to each trade?

A: Alpha-9 Trader is the only service out there that gives you a brand new opportunity to double your money on every single day the stock market’s open. And the best part is… you’ll never risk more than $500 on each trade… and sometimes far less.

How long will we have these trades open?

A: Never more than 30 days. Tom programmed his Alpha-9 program to reveal stock moves that have repeated 90 to 100% of the time… for the last decade… within 30 days or less from any point in time. That means we set all pf our trade setups for no more than 30 days from the entry date. And while Alpha-9 will NEVER set an appointment beyond 30 trading days, we may hit the profit-taking exit ahead of time. In that case, Tom may reschedule appointments to maximize profit potential.

When that happens, he’ll let you know by urgent email alert. Those instructions will look like this:

Action to Take:
SELL-to-Close: Example Stock Inc. (NYSE:XX) XX September 18, 2015 $35
Calls(XX150918C00035000) at 100% or better.

What if I miss an email bulletin?

A: If you miss an entry date, don’t worry. As long as you can still enter the trade at Tom’s targeted price, you still have the opportunity to get in. If you can’t get in at Tom’s recommended price, DON’T force the trade – Tom’s instructions are very precise in order to keep your costs and your risk as low as possible. Alpha-9 generates dozens of possible trades every single trading day of the year. There will be another trade coming down the pike very soon, and you don’t have to participate in every single trade to take full advantage of your Alpha-9 Trader subscription.

If you don’t want to miss a single Email Bulletin, the Money Map team has created a text message alert system. That way we can notify your cell phone, along with your email, that an alert has been issued, so you don’t have to wait around at your computer for hours at a time for these alerts to arrive. Click here to sign up for text alerts.

To be clear, you don’t have to use the text message alert system if you don’t want to. It’s just another way for you to stay connected with Alpha-9 Trader.

How will I get your trade instructions?

A: With every trade, Tom will spell out three main things:

  • TARGET PRICE for entry
  • PROFIT TARGET for exit
  • TIME TARGET for exit

That’s everything you need to know in advance. Exactly when to get in… what your goal is, and when to get out. And, of course, exactly how to set up every trade based on that exact information.

Here’s what a normal new trade recommendation will look like:

Action to Take:
BUY-to-Open: Example Stock Inc. (NYSE:XX) XX September 18, 2015 $35 Calls(XX150918C00035000) at $3.50 or less.

Exit Strategy:
SELL-to-Close: Example Stock Inc. (NYSE:XX) XX September 18, 2015 $35 Calls(XX150918C00035000) at 100% or better.

What are Alpha channels and how do they turn into cash?

A: There’s three main goals behind Alpha Channels:

  1. Find a way to eliminate the lag associated with most technical analysis. In other words – convert trading signals into trades any investor can make fast.
  2. Create a system that can make money in up markets or in down markets with strictly limited risk.
  3. Generate daily plays, where every single opportunity offers the potential to double your money.

Each Alpha Channel consists of momentum, suppression, and velocity trends.

And, of course, attached to each distinct Alpha Channel is a probability threshold that allows us to pinpoint trading opportunities.

A single stock generates a MINIMUM of 23,400 Alpha Channels every day the market is open.

We focus on S&P 500 stocks. All 500 of them. That means we’re looking at 11.7 million Alpha Channels per day.

So over 12 days and 500 different stocks, all of them creating 23,400 patterns a day – you’ve got a minimum of 140 million Alpha Channels.

Consequently, any single Alpha Channel is invisible to the naked eye. And because Alpha Channels are proprietary, they are also invisible to every other trading platform on Wall Street.

Now, about nine years ago, we made a breakthrough discovery regarding Alpha Channels. We found that when three specific Alpha Channels lined up in a very specific way, it gave us the signal we we’re looking for. These channels are called:

  • Alpha-Up
  • Alpha-Down
  • Alpha-Sideways

When these three specific Alpha Channels line up in a very specific way, they form a highly accurate trading signal.

You’ve got the Up Channel and the Sideways Channel lining up in perfect unison, and then stacking on top of the Down Channel.

We call this a Triple Stack Compression.

And it means that the price of the underlying stock is artificially suppressed in a major way. In other words, it’s poised for an explosive and violent surge upward

What kind of trades will we be making?

Tom typically recommends simple directional options trades. That means he’ll recommend buying call options when he anticipates the price of the underlying stock will go up, and buying put options when he anticipates the price of the underlying stock will go down.

The most complex type of trade Tom will typically recommend is a “loophole trade.” Also known as a vertical spread, the loophole trade is executed by buying one option and selling another option of the same type (either calls or puts) with the same expiration date, but different strike prices.

For example, in a bullish loophole trade, Tom will recommend buying one call option and selling another at a higher strike price but with a lower premium to offset some of the cost (and risk) associated with buying the more expensive option. It’s a net debit trade, meaning your account will be debited the difference between the two options. Both trades are placed with your broker as a single transaction – meaning you pay a single commission for both moves.

If it sounds confusing, don’t worry. Tom will give you step-by-step instructions with each trade, including a trade video where he will walk you through the process of placing the order with your broker.
