J.W. Jones is Chief Options Strategies and editor of OptionsTradingSignals.com.

He has spent nearly a decade analyzing and studying financial markets. He has an intense background in portfolio management and risk analytics, with a primary focus on interest rate sensitive instruments, and has been directly involved in the use of options to mitigate and reduce risk in a variety of different portfolios.

J.W.’s successful Income Options Strategy is based on all sorts of options spreads from verticals, calendar spreads, double diagonals, butterflies, broken wing butterflies, double butterflies, condors, iron condors, broken wing condors, ratio spreads and ratio back spreads — and that is just to name a few. They may sound goofy or complex, and some are, but that part is his job. Subscribers, on the other hand, just need to buy and sell the option combinations his strategy identifies as the lowest risk, yet highest probability of generating a profit.
