What people are saying about SpotGamma

You guys taking up this slack in the education side of things was a great idea. Keep up the great work! I used to trade options but with a chart trading mentality, but now with the knowledge of just delta and gamma, my option trades are A+ optimal entry and exits these days.
Peter S.
The Hedge Enrollee
Being an equity index futures trader and personal investor for over 20 years, you have finally pulled back the curtain on the options market, and how it influences the cash prices. You have taken the mystery out of Gamma for me.
