You're listening to the Option Alpha Podcast from Option Alpha.com where we show you how to

monthly income. Now your your host, and head trader at option alpha.com, Kirk depluses.

Hey everyone, this is Kirk here again from option alpha.com working every single

week to make this the most popular investing podcast offered in iTunes because

it's based on one thing and one thing only and that's helping you make smarter trades.

So again, thanks so much for tuning in today.

We've got an awesome interview today with Josh who is the founder and the head trader over

at option sizzle.com.

And actually Josh and I go back a little ways because he interviewed me for one of the products that he sells on his website

where he went along and went out and interviewed a bunch of traders out there and I was fortunate enough to be one of the guys that he interviewed for one of the things that he sells.

And so now I've decided to kind of flip things around a little bit and interview Josh and kind of get his story and how he came up in

trading from the early days as a CME floor runner then till going to become a stockbroker and then managing money and then finally just

trading on his own and building his own businesses which is really cool to hear.

Now what's really great about Josh's story is that he trades very similar to the way I do but

he's got a little bit of different twist which is always good to hear from

other traders and he's an expert at unusual options volatility and volume. So if you're looking for that type of

information this interview is going to be really helpful again. It's just a little bit

longer than usual but we went through a lot of different things and kind of broke it down into what he looks

for and how he looks for it with regard to unusual trading activity and volume in options.

So without further ado, let's get right into the call.

All right, so we got Josh on the phone.
