Lasagna

When I was a kid, on days that were extra special, like my birthday, I could pick whatever I wanted my mom to make me for dinner. I always chose Lasanga. My mom made the best Lasanga in the world, just like my grandma made for her.

And let's face it, bad lasagna is still good, but great lasagna is heaven! As I got older my palate matured. I made my mom’s recipe several times and it was amazing. But, I couldn’t help but tinker with it.

What if I used crushed tomatoes instead of just tomato paste? What if I added ground pork in with the Italian Sausage and Beef?

Over time my lasagna recipe still has the foundation that I learned from my mom, but frankly… and mom STOP READING NOW:

Mine is better and easier to make.

It’s not that my Mom’s lasagna isn't still great (it is), but when I make it, I (and most people that have had both) agree mine is a superior product.

The same holds true for everything we do here at Option Pit. When I am running a strategy I am always asking myself the same questions:

Is there an easier way to trade?

Is there a cheaper way to trade?

Is there a better trade?

Is there something I can do that will improve the performance of the strategy I am running? The answer is always yes, be it how I communicate, convey the reason for my trades, the trades themselves, or how I find the trades I am looking for.

Doesn’t matter the product, or the trader. I demand the same of them as I do myself: always look to improve.

The market is constantly changing, heck we are going to have 23 hour stock trading soon, if you are not improving and adapting it will leave you behind.

Once a week for the past two years, I’ve been finding small, hidden clues that big news is about to hit a stock. I never know what the news will be. I don’t care. The clue is enough. Ford on May 13th was one of them. I bought calls the day I saw it and sold them the next day for 209%.

I’ve spent the last year building a way to find those clues faster, and to squeeze a lot more out of the best ones. Tonight I’m going live to show you what it is. Join me here.

Your only option,

PS if you want my Grandma’s Lasanga recipe… It's the same as Betty Crokers…which I found out only about 10 years ago… mine… might die with me.

My grandma used Ricotta instead of Cottage Cheese… that is literally it.
