Welcome to your home for reliable monthly income: SaferTrader.com

The home for risk-adverse investors seeking consistent monthly income.

While there are many ways you can attempt to profit from the markets, I am convinced there is one "best way" to earn really gratifying income returns every month with controllable and minimal risk. The vehicle is option credit spreads and the basic credit spread strategy and iron condor income strategy are spelled out in detail in the how-to book: "The Monthly Income Machine."

This proprietary technique for harnessing the power of credit spread and Iron Condor trading can produce gratifying results whether investing in the markets is your main source of income, or your intent is to produce a supplemental income stream.

I’ve likely "seen it all" after a brokerage career with major Wall Street firms and years as a financial writer and market educator. Today, after 30+ years of market involvement, the "rules" for how to trade credit spreads I spell out in detail in The Monthly Income Machine drive the only trades I now make in my own personal accounts.
