OptionPundit used to be very good service, but something bad happened to it lately.
Manoj is letting his market opinions to cloud his judgement. he had couple big losers this year (I believe one or two 100%) because he refused to adjust the SPX trades based on his bearish view. His performance reporting is not transparent at all. He claims to base the performance on members fills. But this opens it to manipulation. For example, he recommended to close the GOOG trade before earnings. The results would be 20% loss if following the recommendation. Some members missed the alert and kept the trade through earnings. After the stock did not move, some closed the trade for 97% gain. This was pure luck and against clear alert to close it a day before. Yet, he recorded the trade as 97% winner.
There are few more examples to track record manipulation and misleading. For example, he reports 37% gain in May 2014, but he used only 18% of the capital, so the real return on the 10k portfolio was 6.7%. This fact is mentioned on the members forum, but the main page reports 37% gain which is complete BS.
It looks like Manoj is busy now with charging thousands of dollars for his seminars, and optionpundit became his secondary venture. The forum used to be fairly active and provide some useful info - not anymore. Very few members participate, and responses are delayed or not provided at all.
Cannot recommend this service anymore.
