False Weekly Report

I have got at least 3 weeks loss in a row. But their weekly report makes up a win week for the last week. How can you trust them when they cheat on you?

Thank You Larry! S&P Trader Amazing Results

Subscribing to Lary Benedict's S&P Trader is not only an investment dream come true for me but also a lifeline to help grow my retirement account after a personal financially devastating business failure.

I launched with Larry's S&P Trader system with $37K in my trading account and after 64 trading days so far (starting out slow and growing to multiple contracts) average net profit (including losses) is $915 per day, which annualized result, based on 250 trading days could be about +$228K. That number will grow as I add contracts.

Larry's "oDTE" S&P Vertical spread trade method removes the fear caused by little traction and replaces it with confidence which has enabled me to scale up my trading. I attribute my success to putting on every trade and not second guessing Larry's recos. I am also learning to roll over to help protect a position with a 100% win rate to date.

Thank you for sharing this money making system, Larry! I'm loving it!

Larry's results speak for themselves.

Larry's results speak for themselves with this strategy. I have had consistent yearly profits since becoming a member. Follow all the recommendations and the results do follow including allowing for the down weeks . The profits come in 'up' markets as well as 'down' markets and the instructions are easy to follow. Larry is a great teacher through the way he provides feedback and analysis.

You win but you lose

The SPX trades generate more wins than losses but each loss wipes out many wins. My Dad and I have lost a fair amount following this strategy.

I've been participating in Larry Benedict's Opportunistic S&P Trader since May-24, which is really great. The key is to follow exactly the guidance, particularly maintaining a consistent value for the trades, and don't try and get greedy, or skip trades. Set your consistent trade value and maintain that for each day.

This is by far the finest subscription I have ever purchased. Started with Mr Benedict in late 2022. Within 4 months paid for the subscription through his trade recommendations. His 80%+ winning percentage is unmatched in my experience. Thank you for what you do!

Incorrect P/L calculations

The problem is that the 80 % winning is misleading because the losses are much bigger that the winnings.
Additionally the number in the Profit calculations are wrong, for example if the minimum credit is 1.2 and the calculation can use much bigger number as 2.0 or even bigger. Perhaps, some of the participants score bigger number but the calculations should be the minimum.

It’s not a winner

I started trading the S &P with Larry at the start of the year and have had to quit. Yes he does get a lot of winning $200 trades but it’s the $2000 loosing trades that has taken my account way too far into the red. I just don’t see how this is profitable

I have been very pleased with The S&P Trader program

I have been very pleased with the results of my S&P Trader trades. I'm not quite on par with Larry's results but happy never the less. Trading The S&P Trader system does require more attention. One needs to pay attention and be able to act on new trades as they are posted. The market can move rapidly. I realize there is a lag from the time the trade is sent out and when it's received. I watch for both text notices and email notices. And, I do have high speed internet connection. The S&P Trader program has been fun and profitable and I will continue to trade it. Larry, thanks for you and your staff for making this a reality. Jay

Helping me grow my capital

Helping me grow my capital. Yes, someday I lose. I only 1 contract on each trade. When I lose some days I can't make the recommended trade and so I sit out till I build my trading capital back and trade Larry's recommended trades. I wish all of the trades could be winners. Life has its up and down and so does the market.

Very PROFITABLE over the long run

Very PROFITABLE over the long run, if you manage risk carefully, and consistently take every trade. There will be draw-downs, so you should dedicate a minimum account size of $20,000 per position to comfortably ride the ups and downs..

A reliable trade recommendation service

Larry offers a reliable trading program that users are free to follow. With a greater than 80% win rate on all trades, I have been increasing my trading account in a methodical manner. His trade recommendations are timely, and enables you to get into each trade at or better than his suggested trade entry. I highly recommend this service if you want to become a consistent trader.
