Options Move Markets

I’ve been trading options for nearly a decade, mostly focusing on longer-dated swing positions. I avoided the 0DTE landscape for years since it didn't really fit my risk profile and schedule, but this year wanted to better understand second-order greeks and how dealer positioning shapes intraday price action. I had a basic grasp before, but the educational content VolSignals provides has been a true game-changer. Hearing the perspective of an ex-MM gives me confidence that I’m learning the relevant concepts accurately [...] after 6 months as a VSPro member, I’ve gotten a lot of reps, and feeling more confident than ever trading 0DTE flies, spreads, and single legs. And the best part is its informed, asymmetric, data-backed trading rather than gambling.

After three weeks in the VolSignals Pro channel, I now trade on less fear and hopium, and more on probabilities. I've learned to see what market structure can do to price movements. The clarity of his dealer positioning charts is invaluable!

The Morning Meeting is total must-watch. It perfectly sets up the day and keeps you ahead of the market. Dan’s Market Presentation: Dan has an incredible ability to break down complex market dynamics. [...] Nick’s Trade Setups: Nick provides a clear, highly actionable, and beautifully structured setups. [...] Matt’s Presentation: Matt brings another layer of perspective that rounds out the daily routine.

Before joining I asked how reasonable this would be for someone with a small acct but comfortable with options. Decided to give it a shot and a week or so later Vols personally checked it to ask if things were making sense. That is rare to see. The morning meetings are great prep for the day and the focus truly is on learning and understanding so you can plan your own trades more than follow call outs. [...] And the education of how to think about positioning is very unique and adds a whole new dimension of market analysis. Definitely worth it and excited to grow from here.

I have been in the vs pro room since August. As a hedge fund manager I wanted to see what I was missing from the Spx options market positioning. Daniel's knowledge was well beyond my expectations. It can be a little intimidating the first few weeks but then once you grasp all of the concepts and view them in real time a light bulb goes off in your head. He reenforces the core option positioning and dynamics at play that move markets from a an ex market makers perspective continuously during the day. [...] Great job Daniel , Matt and Francesco for all you do!

I used to sit on a basket of long calls and puts and watch them waste away before this room.. The more you know, the less you trade it seems

I found VS on Twitter while trying to unpack how options flow actually drives markets. I knew there was signal there but couldn’t make the pieces fit on my own, even after building my own tools off GEX and related data. Two months in to VS Pro, the morning calls and the back-catalog of material here have completely changed my view on the viability of this approach. Daniel aka Vols delivers with patience and consistency, and the focus is always on learning how options shape market behavior so you can apply it yourself.

I have learned more about options with you in a week than in my whole time (not much) experiencing this derivatives market. I just love it, I'm kind of obsessed.

a lot of times I just listen to the morning meetings and i feel good about it, because once you learn how to look at the profile, you do start understanding positioning better

Before discovering [...] VolSignals, I thought I had a solid understanding of options and delta hedging. I knew the basics, but after becoming part of the VolSignals community, I quickly realized how much nuance I was missing. The insights shared here go far beyond surface-level concepts, diving deep into the mechanics and behavior of the options market in a way that truly elevated my understanding of a constantly growing market mechanic. And the value at this price point is honestly mind-blowing. The analysis, real-time insights, and community support have become an essential part of my daily process. Very highly recommend!

I come from a completely different background (golf professional), but after 12 months with VS Pro, I can confidently say I know what I'm doing now [...] The team you've built is amazing. I've also started private classes with Nick, since his style fits my lifestyle well [...] I just wanted you to know that your teaching, and the whole VS Pro team, is genuinely building better traders.

I agree, it took me several tries but I think this community is the best for for me - complete lack of attitudes, genuinely experienced current and former industry pros more than willing to share their knowledge with a membership that has a wide range of experience, an open and honest dialogue on just about any topic in financial markets

I've been lurking on the VolSignals server for a couple of years and finally joined during the Black Friday promotion last year. It's really a game-changer. The entire team at VS are simply excellent people. Morning premarket meetings, market maker positioning, daily intraday analysis from three specialists in different domains of the market, and they will engage and answer your questions and provide in-depth responses with VS3D or chart references.

[...] my wealth management buddies think it’s “a waste of time / you can’t beat the market” meanwhile my hedge fund buddies are like “you guys are discussing McElligott / Rubner, intraday gamma changes and 0DTE straddles, holy shit that’s what we do all day!”

For my purposes I think I’d like to stick to trading spreads and using the morning slides. They give me an excellent roadmap on what to avoid and when to engage.

I would highly recommend the trial, the rtm signals themselves are great, but lot of the rtm members are real seasoned pros and it's a great group of people. One of the most valuable feature is a live discord stage where Scotty runs live commentary throughout the day about the signals, available for Q&A, etc. There's so much to the trial, it's hard to fully do it justice from description alone, but really highly recommended

The RTM room helped me immensely understand the market maker model ICT method- [...] i learned enough with OD and RTM to confirm my path- thank you… it is truly a thing to see it from the “other side” as a new retail trader.

Volsigs pro and RTM are great communities, you learn alot, concepts are well explained and great value for different styles of trading between the 3 hosts in morning meetings. highly recommend for any serious trader who is looking to incorporate more optiosn data in their trading or understand concepts that help you frame the auction balance of the day.

I had been trading options for awhile but not consistently successful. Nor had any real systems for what I did. So starting RTM felt very intimidating. I felt like everyone else was probably so much more advanced when they started. I have learned so much. Especially in the last week. But it's nice to know others started where I am.

Can definitely recommend checking out the RTM room. Beyond the signals, I’m a big fan of @Trading Closed ‘s commentary throughout the day. [...] He’s *very* knowledgeable. As are many of the other participants in the room. Hard to encapsulate everything I learned in one message, but you become aware of so many intricacies in the market that you’d be hard pressed to find elsewhere on any reasonable timeframe (if at all). It’s complementary to what VS does w.r.t. the options complex but an independent perspective to the market in and of itself (it’s tracking different participants)

sitting on hands for hours... yep. my patience and risk management have increased significantly since joining.

In addition as an intraday trader, RTM model has been a real edge and a major added value to what i was already using. I can confidently say I’ll be staying in this Discord for years.

I can't believe I am doing this. I have no idea how this black box works but it does.
