Low Stress Options Trading

If you are concerned about achieving financial security for yourself and your family, do yourself a favor and check out Low Stress Options.

I’ve been an off-and-on options trader for more than twenty years. Even though I was entirely self-taught, I had no problem understanding the intricacies of option trading. I even became proficient with a few of the more complex strategies like Iron Condors and Bull Put Spreads.

As long as things went as planned, I did fine. However, when problems arose in my positions, I always felt like I was on my own. I was never able to find a complete trading program that provided detailed guidance for all adverse contingencies. I often found myself falling into the trap that sooner or later catches many non-professional traders: I was letting emotions creep into my decision-making. That’s a sure success killer!

So when I was introduced to Low Stress Options by noted economist, author, and historian Thomas Woods, I immediately saw the potential for success. I realized that this was exactly what I had been looking for all these years: a simple, easily implemented, highly profitable, week-to-week program geared to non-professional traders like myself. A program that eliminates emotion-fueled, stressful trading.

Low Stress Options was developed by former Navy officer and nuclear engineer, Troy Broussard, who I have come to recognize as a certifiable genius. Troy also has experience in multi-million dollar software and app development, SEO, and numerous marketing/coaching businesses.

I couldn’t be happier with Low Stress Options. Although the basic concepts are relatively easy to learn, the program comes with extensive training. Troy recommends starting a Schwab trading account (a small one is OK), and using the Think or Swim platform. The training will have you well prepared before you place your first trade. You’ll receive guidance every step of the way. And if you start trading without a full grasp the basic concepts, you’ll definitely hear about it – with a healthy dose of Troy’s “tough love.” More than anything else, he wants you to succeed. Trust me…you won’t be trading until you are fully prepared and ready!

Let’s face it…we’re living in uncertain financial times. If you’re like me, you’re concerned about what the future holds for your children (or even your grandchildren). But we don’t have to sit back and just passively accept our fate. Low Stress Options will give you a legitimate, clear path to a secure financial future.  I’m in the process of setting up a custodial account for my grandson. As fathers and grandfathers, what better gift can we bestow on our families than a pathway to financial security?

In a nutshell, the Low Stress Options approach is based upon selling cash-secured put options and covered calls while generating one percent return per week! I know that sounds boring, but start compounding that and then look at the math. You’ll be shocked! [ed. note: one percent per week compounds to 66% per annum].  And believe me…it’s definitely attainable.

I know options trading may not appeal to everyone. Maybe you’re hesitant because you don’t have options trading experience. But trust me, you don’t need trading experience to have success with this program. As a matter of fact, many of the most successful members started with no option trading experience at all. What is required, though, is patience and discipline, along with the willingness to make a small investment of time to thoroughly master the Low Stress format. The provided training will have you up and running and ready to go in just a relatively short period of time. You can go through the training at your own pace. And, surprisingly, I’m shocked by how many female traders there are doing well with the Low Stress Options program, most of whom started with no trading experience at all. There may be almost as many women in the community as there are men. 

Rather than me trying to give you all the ins and outs of the program, Troy Broussard and his partner, John Sanpietro, have prepared an information page that describes the program in great detail. Be prepared: It’s rather lengthy. So pull up a chair and give it a go!  As Troy says, “If you can’t get through it, you’re probably not a good candidate!”

Here’s a link where you can access the information. You might just find that you are opening a door to something you never even considered before: the exciting world of options trading.  It could lead to one of the best financial decisions you’ve ever made.

I hope you’ll consider joining me in the *Low Stress Options community. If you have any questions about my experience with Low Stress Options, please feel free to contact me at any time.

UPDATE

(I’ll be giving monthly updates on my progress with Low Stress Options Trading):

June 26, 2026

With the close of the June trading month today, I’m now seven months into the program, and my account shows a profit of $7,000, with an average of 1.03% profit per week, so I’m on track for the yearly 1% per week average target, which compounds out to 66% over a year. For the June trading month, I averaged 1.45% per week and $507 in weekly profits. Over the last three months, I’ve averaged 1.11% per week and $321.25 in profit per week. I’ve now made 358 transactions, including puts, calls, rolls, assignments, and expirations. No losing trades and no losing weeks. I currently have seven open positions, five puts and two calls. With the money I’ve added to my account, it’s now valued at $36,350. With a significantly larger account now, I expect my weekly and monthly profits to continue to increase. Don’t forget that this program can be easily managed in as little as 15 minutes per day, so you’re not glued to a screen all day. You can monitor your positions using the  Think or Swim app on your phone, so you don’t even have to be at home. Also, remember that option trading experience is not required. The training program will get you up and ready to trade options in a relatively short period of time. If you’re considering joining the program and have questions, please contact me: Livac2@aol.com.

May 29, 2026

With the end of the May trading month today, my account now shows a nice profit of $5,000 since I placed my first trade on December 8, 2025. I’ve had 300 transactions (including sold puts and calls, rolls, assignments, and expirations). I’m averaging 1.02% per week since I started, which averages out to 66% over the year. As we near the halfway point for the year, I’m right on target for that 66%. I’m averaging $196 in profit per week since the start, $211.98 per week over the last three months, and $301 per week in May. All this while the market has been generally down for a good chunk of the year thus far. No losing trades and no losing weeks. I’ve now added significantly more funds to my Schwab account – I started with a $10,000 account –  so I expect to be generating higher profits over the next few months. Don’t forget that this program can be easily managed in as little as 15 minutes per day.  Again, if you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.  (Livac2@aol.com)

May 1, 2026

With the end of the April trading month, my account now shows a profit of slightly less than $4,000. I’ve had 243 transactions, including puts, calls, expirations, and rolls. No losing weeks and no losing trades. I’m still averaging 1.01% per week, which averages out to 66% over a year. Contact me if you want more information. (Livac2@aol.com)

April 2. 2026

With the market close today, I’ve finished trading for March. Even though it was a significantly down month for the overall market, I still managed a $1,000 profit, with no losing weeks and no losing trades. My account now includes 185 total transactions (puts, calls, expirations, and rolls). The beauty of Low Stress Options is that you can profit whether the market moves up, down, or sideways.  Since December 1, when I started with a $10,000 account, I’m showing a profit of $3,000, averaging 1.02% per week. For your information, 1% per week averages out to 66% over the year; and – four months in – I’m currently on target for that 66%. Try getting that from your savings account! If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at any time (Livac2@aol.com).

February 27, 2026:

With the close of the market today, I completed three months in the program. My account now shows a profit of $2.1K. Even though the market was mostly down during the month, all my trades were profitable—no losing positions, which now includes 148 total transactions. 

January 30, 2026:

I opened a $10,000 trading account with Charles Schwab on November 4, 2025. After completing the training program, I placed my first trade on December 8, 2025. Since then, I’ve placed 96 trades (counting rolls), and my account shows a profit of $1.4K as of the end of trading today. I’m averaging almost exactly 1% per week. This average includes my first two weeks where I did very little trading as I was just trying to get comfortable with the system before making a complete commitment. Exclude these two weeks and my weekly average would be much higher. In addition, I’ve made two careless mistakes in setting up positions that also affected my weekly average. Fortunately, it’s a very forgiving system, so in spite of these two careless mistakes, I still showed a profit in both of the two weeks in which I made them – just a lower profit than if I had not made the mistakes.  Overall, I’ve had no losing weeks and no losing trades. I almost forgot to mention that the program requires no more than 10-15 minutes of attention per day, so you’re not glued to a screen for hours on end.
