Erik Epp - Editor of WiseOptions
Growing up on a farm taught me discipline, the value of
hard work and appreciation for seasonal timing and the
market forces of supply and demand. Upon graduating
with Honors from High School I joined the military and
served in a Special Forces Unit and later as an
Intelligent Analyst in the Air Force where I learned not
just the power of analysis but also the importance of
timing and probabilities.
In
1988 I came into the world of finance, after switching
careers due to a major injury from service in the
electronics world (Xerox, where I won two awards for
innovation). I graduated with Honors in Accounting and
Finance in 1988 and was hired as an Internal Auditor for
TD Bank. It was while being a part of an audit team of
TD Greenline (later to become TD Waterhouse) that I
decided to switch to investing/trading, specializing in
options. From there I taught finance and investing at
several colleges, pursued my own education and worked
with other brokerage firms and on the floor of a stock
exchange.
I
completed all the necessary courses and licensing
requirements to become a fully-qualified licensed Branch
Manger for securities, commodities and futures. I
am a former R.P.A. (Registered Public Accountant).
As
I became more passionate about options I began
developing my own unique analytical systems for options
trading.
In 2003 I founded WiseOptions and
we began offering the "Premium Strategy". It was based on
credit spreads and achieved a 90% success ratio.
When the market changed in 2006, we changed our focus to
encompass more varied options strategies. In early
2007 I became the chief editor
and began offering the "OptionsMaximizer".
As
Editor of WiseOptions, my goal is to provide individual
options investors with suggestions that result in
consistent steady returns that reflect honest reporting
that are net of costs and based on worst-case scenario. My trading methodology is based on two
guiding principles: 1) Keep It Simple, and 2) Stick to
my own analyses and calculations and ignore all the
“hype”, “noise” and “hoopla”, which is often nothing more than just that.
