Optionetics claims to be a provider of investment education service, portfolio management techniques, market analysis and online trading tools since 1993. Through the seminars and workshops, home study materials, publications, CD’s and DVD’s and books offered on the Optionetics website you are supposed to be able to become a successful trader in today’s market from the comfort of your own home.

I found several postings on Rip-Off Report.com as well as others stating that the information provided at first made the Optionetics program seem the perfect thing for a novice to learn about trading. However, one individual stated that once he paid his fee and had gone past the deadline to get a refund, the information then become very detailed and over his head and in his opinion geared for the experienced trader. Many of the other postings were similar and one even went so far as to say that it is possible to get the information needed to be a successful trader without spending the money necessary for this type of course.

I feel that trading and investments is a very difficult business to learn and does indeed require a great deal of training and experience. Also there is the risk involved with this and the thought that one should never invest more than they can afford to lose. All this having been said, I feel that Optionetics is a somewhat risky venture and you should be very cautious before buying in.
