A complete overview of three great options trading newsletters
Considering all the factors that we recommend one considers when choosing an options newsletter publisher to partner with, it is now time that we get more specific. At Schaeffer Investment Research, we take pride in our nearly 40 year
old history of providing incredible trading profits for our valued clients. Schaeffer's Investment Research was one of first options newsletter publishers ever, founded in 1981. We have since thrived through every kind of stock market environment thrown at us to date. Schaeffer's mission is to provide our subscribers with the best in class research, as well as high profit potential options plays.
We are the nation’s leading options newsletter publisher, delivering cutting-edge market commentary and trade ideas throughout every trading day. Our expert research and quantitative analysis teams work to ensure that our customers are able to capitalize on as many trading opportunities as possible. Backed by stock market news outlets, research from the Schaeffer's team of in-house analysts (including our options guru, Bernie Schaeffer) is
regularly featured by The Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg, MarketWatch, USA
Today, Reuters, CNBC, US News and World Report, and more.
Schaeffer's journey began in 1981 when Bernie Schaeffer and his partner were working as actuaries for
Great American Insurance. After gaining significant experience in options trading, Bernie soon realized that
there was a pressing need for an options newsletter for small traders and professional traders
alike. This identification of a missing support solution for retail traders resulted in our development of the nation's best options trading newsletters.
In this article, we will provide detail on a couple of our most loved options newsletters, for both the convenience of the trade delivery as well as the long-standing portfolio returns.

Schaeffer’s Option Advisor is our flagship options trading program, clocking in at nearly 40 years old. Option Advisor provides traders with the opportunity to get one step closer to financial freedom with Bernie Schaeffer’s Option Advisor.
The options newsletter provides 10 options trade recommendations every month. Each trade comes complete with an in-depth analysis and rationale for recommending the specific trade. In addition to the 10 options trades delivered each month, all members receive access to Bernie's monthly market outlook as well as a timely educational piece. As a bonus for all members, access to Schaeffer's Top Gun Trading Course and Schaeffer's Quick Start Guide is included with membership.
