Free masterclass

OptionPundit Academy · Est. 2006 · Singapore

There's never been more free options education.
Or more people losing money.

Nine in ten options traders lose money. The information was never the problem. Knowing a strategy isn't the same as knowing when and how to use it. The first is free everywhere. The second is the real game — and it's all we teach.

The method

The information is free now.
The judgment isn't.

Every trade we teach runs through the same four decisions, the way a professional desk works. Rules first. Risk defined before entry. Every position reviewed.

01

Read the regime

Trending, ranging or stressed? The market decides which strategies are even on the table.

02

Find the opportunity

Screens and scans narrow thousands of tickers to the few that fit the regime and your plan.

03

Execute with defined risk

The structure, the size and the exit are written down before the order goes in.

04

Journal and review

Every trade scored against a rubric. This is where traders actually improve.

Manoj Kumar

MBAB.TechCTAFounder, OptionPundit Trading Academy · 2006
I wasn’t born with a silver spoon. I was born with a dream — and a corporate job that felt like a cage.

For years, I did exactly what society told me: I worked hard and traded my time for a paycheck. But while I was busy grinding, inflation was quietly eroding my future. I watched incredible market opportunities pass me by because I was paralysed by the fear of losing what little I had.

Everything changed when I stopped guessing and started building rule-based, risk-managed systems, the same way professional traders operate.

In 2006, I founded OptionPundit to bring institutional-grade strategies to the everyday investor. Over the past two decades, I have engineered a suite of proprietary, systematic blueprints. They form the architectural core of my approach to the markets.

The OptionPundit playbook · proprietary models
PP33℠5D℠M30℠CamelCurl℠L2R℠Mt Fuji℠Flying Condor℠222℠Tiara℠

I didn’t just build a trading system; I built a way out of the grind. Today, more than 10,000 traders have learned these systems, to stop being victims of the market and start becoming architects of their own professional trading businesses.

I’m not here to just give you a “course” to study. I’m here to share the same systematic blueprint I used to find my own freedom.

Ready to build your edge? Let’s do it together.
