Profits Run: Instant Options Income and Coaching Program is Great!
April 6, 2021

I am a beginner-level options trader who has subscribed to several options trading advisory services from various companies. Each service has its pros and cons, but the one service that stands out is Profits Run: Instant Options Income advisory service. It provided me with outstanding investment returns but made the trades simple for me by giving explicit instructions for entering them. They explain exactly what to enter into my trading platform and spell out the desired outcome of each trade (e.g., "Desired Outcome: XYZ to close at or below $97.") Few of the other advisory services provide both the desired outcome and explicit entry criteria for the trade. As a beginning options investor, the detail was just what I needed. Also, they hit winners much more often than not. As a result, I have renewed my subscription to a lifetime membership.
As a beginning investor, I have longed to understand more about options trading and why the recommendations are made. I wanted to understand the analytics and parameters that drive a good (or bad) investment. I send Profits Run my questions and get quick responses, usually in a day or two. But anyone who trades options understands it is pretty abstract at times and learning the new vocabulary around options can be overwhelming. Someone from Profits Run called me (probably because I ask so many questions) and offered me some training and coaching by a seasoned options trader. Given what they offer, it was an easy yes for me. I am halfway through my training and coaching – and I have learned a lot. I was lucky – the instructor/coach assigned to me is a seasoned active trader who was a partner at an east coast financial services firm. He knows his stuff! My coach is patient with me as it has been challenging to get these new concepts and terms into my 65-year-old brain. He challenges me by offering the concepts, and then he has me talk through their application. He helped me set up a "play money" account to practice the concepts and make lots of mistakes (fertile ground for learning!) Also, he has shown me how to "read the tea leaves" in the market so I can find great trading opportunities. He also helped me set up a dashboard of indicators that provide the information I need to pick opportunities for investments. He even introduced me to candlestick analysis, which I love. Our calls are recorded, and I can review those videos whenever I want – and I do – like the Zapruder film.
If you are on the fence about trading options, the Profits Run: Instant Options Income will help you make sound investments at a level of risk you can be comfortable with. You can easily earn back the cost of the service, plus a lot more. If you want to learn more about options trading, there is a lot of information on the internet, but there is no substitute for the efficiency of having a live person to take you through it and answer all your questions. There is a plethora of training materials provided with your Profits Run Subscription at no additional cost. However, if you want to learn more and kick your options game into overdrive, I heartily recommend the Profits Run training and coaching program.

Terrible disappointment
January 23, 2018

Bill Poulos Profits Run/Instant Options Income
This is my personal experience with the weekly options trading platform only.
I am an inexperienced options trader that purchased the program after listening to Mr. Poulos explain the program. He told me exactly what I wanted to hear, and I was very excited to purchase the program and begin using it. I am profoundly disappointed to report that it does not work as Mr. Poulos presents it.
The time frame is August 10th through December 22nd, (4 ½ months). I funded my account with TD Ameritrade with $8000 and followed his directions explicitly. The guarantee is that you may get a refund for any reason within 60 days. You can also get a refund after trading for one year if you send him all of your trading confirmations and your Welcome Packet. First off, 60 days isnt long enough to know if the program works so I ignored that deadline. Secondly, I did not open my welcome packet for almost a month, and when I did open it the box was empty.
He does not do any business on the phone. Everything is done on email. There are a lot of different trading platforms and you must figure it out for yourself how to translate his recommendations into actual trades.
So what happens when you follow his recommendations? Mostly frustration. Your trades will not fill. He may very well have a track record of winning trades that is over 70% but you dont make any money if your trade doesnt fill. He occasionally addresses this online by telling you to be patient. He says that about half of your orders will fill over a period of a year. This week there were four options recommended and I had two of the four options fill, both lost money and to date I am over $4000 down. Add that to the $2500 I have given to Mr. Poulson and I have a $6500 deficit after only 4 1/2 months.
What he tells you in his sales pitch is not an outright lie. He is guilty of omission. He doesnt give you all the facts.
What you get on a regular basis are more sales pitches to buy more of his other programs. He uses the same sales pitch to sell more programs. He tells you how tired you must be of using the same old program that just doesnt work. He is correct. But the problem is that its the program I purchased from him that doesnt work.
Being an incurable optimist, I still think there may be a way to make money with the weekly options by buying spreads. I wanted what he was selling, simplicity and very little time expense. Not happening.
