To a beginner, the world of options trading can be very complicated, with many moving parts. There are numerous terms to become aware of. However, if you focus too much on learning exactly what every term means, your head might spin. That’s why we tried to simplify things in our options trading courses.

Focusing on the big picture and the overall concept with options is important rather than focusing too hard on what every term means. In this case, each term is a piece that completes the overall puzzle, but it’s more important to see how the big picture comes together when trading options. The puzzle pieces will come together the more that you focus on the overall concept with options and get through learning all the options and training terminology.

That’s a question that many new traders ask. They seem so complicated, so why do it? Well, there are several different reasons why people trade options. One is to hedge against existing positions in their portfolio. Suppose your portfolio is mostly bullish, and the market turns bearish. In that case, many traders will take bearish options positions to hedge against the markets and capitalize without necessarily having to sell their current positions. Another tactic traders employ is to sell covered calls.

Another reason people trade options is for speculation. Many traders buy and sell options contracts purely for profit. They are good technical chartists, so they trade options contracts for profit. Trading options allow you to profit whether the market is bullish, bearish, or trades sideways. Credit spreads and iron condors are good strategies when the markets are range-bound. We will teach you those strategies in our options course.

As others have described it, Bullish Bears is a community. All sorts of people and experience levels sharing their knowledge and encouraging one another.The BB teachers / contributors each have instruction multiple times per week, and the livestreams are recorded and kept for review and taking more notes later. Overall this is the best value I have seen online.This is not a signal pushing, self-profiting pump-n-dump type of group, though there are useful signals. Bullish Bears goal is to teach you how to see your own entries, make your own decisions, and be a successful trader. I have immensely enjoyed my time with them and am looking forward to more.

The Bullish Bears Community sets the Gold Standard for all online financial educational services. They have hours and hours of the best video training available anywhere. Actual videos of live online trading concepts recorded in real time by EXPERTS. The absolute highest level of knowledge and experience I have ever encountered. They have daily LIVE chat rooms where you can observe real traders and look over their shoulder as they teach you how they look for trade setups for options, stocks or futures. They share every detail of the trade setups and why they are taking a trade at any given level. You will learn how to acquire the skills to trade on your own and not be dependent on any "guru". Wouldn't you rather KNOW how to trade rather than to PAY someone who is here today and gone tomorrow (with your money) to BS you. You can look at fake photos of their Learjet, Lamborgini and Yacht OR do it the right way and actually LEARN how to do it yourself.

First of all thank you to the BB Team for the Virtual New Year's party last night going into the New Year. I would like to wish the BB Team and all the members a very Happy New Year 2022. I've been a member for the past few years and learned a lot from their mentoring and daily sessions as well as a vast treasure trove of information about trading the markets. Normally the information that is available here would be definitely in the upwards of thousands of dollars. The membership more than pays for itself. They stand by their motto "Pay it forward". I've upgraded my annual membership to their Lifetime membership because of the value it provides and they keep it more interesting. All the best to the BB team.

I joined the Bullish Bears in May 2021 because someone shared a YouTube video of a trading technique I was interested in learning since I was struggling learning it from somewhere else. Once I joined the community, there were even more learning opportunities from the video library, the live streaming, the BB Team along with the BB community. Whether your are a novice or experienced trader, there is a place for you at the Bullish Bears.

This is truly a team of people dedicated to helping their members understand and apply that level of understanding in the market. They are extremely interactive with their members. They have personally taken time to explain concepts to me over and over again until I actually understood the material. What I enjoy most; you are not learning just one system, you are learning systems and concepts to build your own way of thinking and trading! I'm truly grateful to Bullish Bears.

STOCK TRADING SERVICE

Our chat rooms willprovide you with an opportunity to learn how to trade stocks, options, and futures. You’ll see how other members are doing it, share charts, share ideas and gain knowledge.

Our traders support each other with knowledge and feedback. People come here to learn, hang out, practice, trade stocks, and more. Our trade rooms are a great place to get live group mentoring and training.

TRADE ALERTS “SIGNALS”

The Bullish Bears trade alerts include both day trade and swing trade alert signals. These are stocks that we post daily in our Discord for our community members.

These alert signals go along with our stock watch lists. Our watch lists and alert signals are great for your trading education and learning experience.

We want you to see what we see and begin to spot trade setups yourself.

REAL-TIME STOCK ALERTS SERVICE

We also offer real-time stock alerts for those that want to follow our options trades. You have the option to trade stocks instead of going the options trading route if you wish.

Our stock alerts are simple to follow and easy to implement. We post entries and exits.

Also, we provide you with free options courses that teach you how to implement our trades as well.

STOCK TRAINING DOESN’T NEED TO BE HARD

Stock training doesn’t need to be hard. But it sure feels hard when you don’t know where to turn for legitimate knowledge. There are tons of places to learn, but what makes us different?

Well, for starters, we’re just real everyday people who like trade stocks. We’re not gurus portraying a fancy lifestyle of cars and jets and beaches. Can you obtain those things with what we teach you? Sure you can. Is that what motivates us when teaching you how to trade?

Nope. What we really care about is helping you, and seeing you succeed as a trader. We want the everyday person to get the kind of training in the stock market we would have wanted when we started out.

WHY WE’RE DIFFERENT

What else makes us different? When it comes to the stock market, we’ve won, we’ve lost, we’ve lived, and learned. We’ve been through the ups and downs in the market and figured out what really matters. The Charts…Candlesticks = PRICE ACTION! We’ve created a site that passes all this knowledge on to you.

We don’t charge you an arm and a leg for the stock training we give you. We charge a modest amount that goes towards running our day-to-day operations and paying for our invaluable team moderators that are passionate about teaching YOU!

That’s about it. We could charge more, but we have a pay it forward, give back mentality. It’s not about the money. The best and most important thing for us is YOU. We want to feel good about what we do, and the results and reviews speak for themselves.

Those emails we get, the feedback, the success we see. That is what our educational trading community is all about. We hold no secrets back. Our trading edge is your trading edge.

STOCK TRAINING DONE RIGHT

We don’t care what your motivation is to get training in the stock market. If it’s money and wealth for material things, money to travel and build memories, or paying for your child’s education, it’s all good. We know that you’ll walk away from a stronger, more confident, and street-wise trader.

In our stock trading community, you’re going to get it all. Futures, options trading, and stocks. Not just penny stocks either. Small, mid, and large caps. Each day we have several live streamers showing you the ropes, and talking the community though the action.

There’s no catch, no smoke or mirrors. What you see is what you get. If you’re looking to change your life, or someone else’s, we’re here to help you reach that goal. Get started learning day trading, swing trading, options, or futures trading today!

TRADING STOCKS IN THE BULLISH BEARS COMMUNITY

Yes, we work hard every day to teach day trading, swing trading, options futures, scalping, and all that fun trading stuff. But we also like to teach you what’s beneath the Foundation of the stock market.

Tell you the TRUTH about how the market works. The importance of controlling your emotions and having a proper mindset when trading. We’re really passionate about teaching you this stuff!

Money isn’t our #1 priority in life. YOU are. Our members come first. Making sure you get comfortable with trading is our priority.

We have members that come from all walks of life and from all over the world. We love the diversity of people, just like we like diversity in trading styles. It creates an environment much like a university or college.

TRADING ROOMS AND LIVE STOCK TRAINING

Each day our team does live streaming where we focus on real-time group mentoring, coaching, and stock training. We teach day trading stocks, options or futures, as well as swing trading. Our live streams are a great way to learn in a real-world environment, without the pressure and noise of trying to do it all yourself or listening to “Talking Heads” on social media or tv.

We will help to challenge your ideas, skills, and perceptions of the stock market. You will learn and grow as a trader. Every day people join our community and we welcome them with open arms. We are much more than just a place to learn how to trade stocks.

FREE ONLINE TRADING COURSES

If you’ve looked for trading education elsewhere then you’ll notice that it can be very costly.

We are opposed to charging ridiculous amounts to access experience and quality information.

That being said, our website is a great resource for traders or investors of all levels to learn about day trading stocks, futures, and options. Swing trading too!

On our site, you will find thousands of dollars worth of free online trading courses, tutorials, and reviews.

We put all of the tools available to traders to the test and give you first-hand experience in stock trading you won’t find elsewhere.

Our content is packed with the essential knowledge that’s needed to help you to become a successful trader.

It’s important to treat day trading stocks, options, futures, and swing trading like you would with getting a professional degree, a new trade, or starting any new career.

Invest the proper time into your Trading Education and don’t try to run before you learn to crawl. Trading stocks is not a get-rich-quick scheme. It’s not gambling either, though there are people who treat it this way. Don’t be that person!

STOCK TRADING COURSES FOR BEGINNERS

The Bullish Bears team focuses on keeping things as simple as possible in our online trading courses and chat rooms. We provide our members with courses of all different trading levels and topics.
