Online discount broker TradeKing (www.tradeking.com) today announced the latest additions to its All-Star roster of trading professionals providing commentary on individual investors’ online trading as part of the TradeKing Community. Beginning immediately, options trading luminaries Jonathan (“Doc”) Maher, Ph.D., and Dan Sheridan will join Larry McMillan and TradeKing’s own Brian Overby and Nicole Wachs, expanding the lineup of options pros offering “All-Star Commentary” on individual investors’ online trading. Commentary by these professionals help TradeKing Community members expand their knowledge of options trading and learn from one another’s trades in real-time with tips and insights from the financial world’s thought leaders.
“On the heels of the announcement of this year’s American and National League baseball All-Stars, it’s fitting that TradeKing is likewise expanding its bench with the addition of our own options All-Stars,” said Don Montanaro, CEO of TradeKing. “I’m thrilled to welcome Doc and Dan to the TradeKing Community, and know their insight will be the equivalent of giving TradeKing clients ‘home field advantage’ when it comes to their options trading success. Our clients have responded enthusiastically over the past quarter to the commentary from Larry, Brian and Nicole, and it’s great to be adding a couple more big bats to our lineup.”
Maher is the founder of DocMaher Trading LLC (www.docmahertrading.com), an investment education company that works with traders on a one-on-one basis. Since founding the firm in 2004, Maher has taught options strategies to hundreds of traders, with a specialty around more conservative “Income Strategies” such as Iron Condors and Calendars that capitalize on time and volatility. Sheridan is a 22-year veteran CBOE market maker who served as senior trader, trainer and risk manager for Mercury Trading. Since leaving the pit in 2004, Sheridan has mentored individual traders on the techniques and methods he used every day to consistently profit in the options market (www.sheridanmentoring.com).
In addition to Maher and Sheridan, Larry McMillan, president of McMillan Analysis Corporation (www.optionstrategist.com) and author of Options as a Strategic Investment, the best-selling work on stock and index options strategies, will continue to serve as an All-Star Blog Commentator. TradeKing’s own Brian Overby, senior options analyst, and Nicole Wachs, director of education, round out TradeKing’s All-Star Commentator lineup.
