The Method
Learn a process you can run for years.
Coinfish education is built around credit spreads and iron condors on liquid markets. Three tools, one loop, defined risk every time. Here is exactly how the pieces fit together.
Step 1 · The Roadmap
Technicals for timing
Before any trade, we read the chart. Price action shows the trend, patterns show the pressure points, and momentum shows whether the move has fuel. This is how we decide when conditions favor putting on a position, and just as important, when to wait.
You will learn to read support and resistance, trend structure, and momentum so your entries are planned, not impulsive.

Step 2 · The Playbook
The chain for structure
Once timing lines up, the trade gets built on the options chain. We choose strikes, expirations, and premium that fit the setup, then define the maximum loss before entering. Credit spreads and iron condors let us get paid up front and win across a wide range of outcomes.
You will learn to read probabilities, set up credit spreads and iron condors, and know your risk to the dollar before you click buy.
Options Chain
Step 3 · The Radar
Scanners for selection
You cannot watch every ticker. Scanners do the watching for you, filtering thousands of names down to the few that meet our criteria for volatility, liquidity, and a clean technical trigger. That is how a part-time trader competes without staring at screens all day.
You will learn to build and run the same screens we use, so the market hands you a short list instead of an overwhelming feed.
