Why this program exists

You don't lose on direction. You lose to theta, sizing, and tips.

Most option buyers don't lose because they pick the wrong direction. They lose to theta — the time decay built into every option — to oversized positions, and to trading on tips instead of rules.

The free eBook gives you the framework. This mentorship makes sure you can actually execute it: on real charts, with your own capital rules, with your own logic and decisions reviewed against the rules with you — until rule-based trading becomes the way you think, not a thing you read once.

This is a live mentorship — taught directly to you, not a pre-recorded course. You're guided through every step, you get dedicated support throughout, and you walk away with our entire 20+ strategy playbook.

Is this you?

Who this is for — and who it isn't

This is for you if…

  • You're an option buyer tired of tips, noise, and indicator overload
  • You're a beginner who wants a clean, rule-based foundation from day one
  • You're discretionary and want to systematise your entries and exits — and automate them
  • You want structured, guided mentorship instead of scattered tips and noise
  • You want to think for yourself and protect your own capital

This is not for you if…

  • You're looking for tips, calls, or assured / guaranteed returns
  • You want someone to trade for you
  • You're unwilling to put risk management first
  • You can't accept that most option buyers lose money and that F&O is high-risk

What you'll learn · the curriculum

Eight modules — from the basics to a running, automated system

Each module gives you a decision to make and a clear rule for making it — and together they're the engine behind all 20+ strategies.

Module 01

Foundations: how the F&O market really works

What options are, calls vs puts, premium, and the option chain decoded — strikes, LTP, OI, volume, IV. Why rule-based option buying is the opposite of gambling.

Module 02

The real opponent: theta & why buyers lose

Time decay as a melting ice cube. Why a correct-but-slow move still loses money — and how to enter only when the move is strong enough to outrun decay, and exit the moment strength fades.

Module 03

The four-indicator system, built from scratch

SuperTrend for direction, RSI for momentum strength, Pivot Points for structure, Bollinger Bands for a statistically rare entry trigger. Four independent questions — not one signal repeated four times.

Module 04

The five-step framework: exact entries & exits

The precise Call checklist and Put checklist — all four conditions TRUE or you stay out — plus the SuperTrend trailing exit. Why the 3-minute chart is the sweet spot for intraday entries.

Module 05

Read any chart: structure & candle patterns

Price action, market structure, and the candle patterns that actually matter — so you can read any instrument on any timeframe with confidence instead of guessing.

Module 06

Risk first: position sizing & capital

The 1–2% per-trade rule and why it's what keeps a small account alive through an inevitable losing streak. A position-sizing approach you can apply to your own capital.

Module 07

From rules to automation (no code)

Turn a discretionary approach into clear if-then rules, then automate the execution — no coding — so emotion stays out of your trades. Why a system running on ~75 candle closes a day needs automation to be sustainable.

Module 08

AI-assisted system & the expiry-day playbook

Use AI to review strategy performance, spot redundant signals, optimise allocation, and tighten risk. Plus how theta behaves on expiry day, and how to structure trades that use it in your favour.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Is this a live program or recorded videos?
It's a live mentorship program, taught in real time — not pre-recorded videos. You learn, ask questions, and apply each rule as you go. Entry is limited so the batch stays small.
Which language is the program taught in?
The program is taught in English throughout.
How many seats are there?
Just 10 per batch. Entry is deliberately limited so every mentee gets real attention and dedicated support.
How long is the program, and how many sessions?
It's a one-month program of 20 sessions — an intensive, structured schedule that takes you from the foundations through to a running, automated system.
Do I really get all 20+ strategies?
Yes — the complete playbook, with the rules, entry/exit conditions, and ideal market for each one. All of it is educational; none of it is a tip, a buy/sell call, or an assured-return system.
Will I make money? What returns can I expect?
No returns are promised or implied. Most option buyers lose money and F&O trading is high-risk. The program teaches a rule-based method and a risk-first approach — it does not guarantee profits, and no strategy, system, or indicator can.
Do I need to know coding?
No. The automation is fully no-code. You learn the rules manually first, then automate the execution.
How much capital do I need to start? (educational)
A practical minimum is around ₹50,000 for one lot of NIFTY call/put buying — but risk per trade matters just as much. Risking only 1–2% per trade is what lets a small account survive a run of losses. Your broker's margin requirements and your own risk tolerance should set your real numbers.
What does "dedicated support" mean?
You get a direct line for your questions about the concepts, rules, and strategies throughout the program, so you're never stuck between sessions. To be clear, this support is educational — it's for understanding the method, not buy/sell calls, tips, or advice on specific live trades.
Do I get recordings if I miss a session?
Yes — you get lifetime access to your session recordings.
Is The Simple Trade SEBI-registered?
No. The Simple Trade is not a SEBI-registered Investment Adviser or Research Analyst. Everything taught is general market education, not investment advice.
What's the refund policy?
All fees are non-refundable. Because seats are limited to 10 per batch and you receive the full programme — including all 20+ strategies — once you enrol, your spot is confirmed and the fee cannot be refunded. Please be sure before you book.
