Short Option SuccessReviews of shortoptionsuccess.com

Outstanding! Consistent returns with minimal time needed! Just what I was looking for in a trading program.

When I first learned of Short Option Success I was optimistically cautious. How could someone make a 8.5% monthly return on options. Was this another too good to be true “scam?” I set up an appointment to learn more. I received reminders of the phone call which I was grateful for as I have a very busy schedule. After my initial phone call I asked to speak with a few people who were trading following the Short Option Success program. The sales person I was speaking with graciously set up calls to two people and also set up a call with Tom Herd. During the entire process each person I spoke with was open with me regarding their experience, successes/challenges, the Short Option Success community and the leadership of Tom. I made the decision to invest in my financial future and joined the Short Option Success program. One of the biggest reasons that led to my decision to join was my conversation with Tom. Tom is not a flashy sales guy who just wants you to join a program and he makes money. Tom is a genuine, value based man whose sole purpose for offering SOS is to teach people how to achieve financial success. I would love to share with anyone two specific examples of the type of man Tom is but not enough space to do so. What I can say is this, many of you have heard that “I would follow that man anywhere, anytime” that is Tom Herd. I had shared with me Tom’s ROI since 2006, actual statements. Tom has been successful and teaches us the rules he has followed. These rules include what you look for to enter a trade, risk mitigation and when/how to exit a trade. As with any program there will be exceptions to following rules based on market or your positions, this happens rarely. Tom has developed a system not only for successful trading but also successful training and providing tools for success. We have two weekly calls led by Tom that anyone within SOS may join. These calls allow for questions and training on how to be successful. All of us are assigned a “coach” and are part of a smaller group with weekly calls. Tom shares with all of us his current positions each day and in our SLACK community shares when he makes a trade and specifics on the trade. Tom and the coaches take the time to work with beginners as well as experienced traders. After I joined in May 2024, I attended all calls offered per week, had one on one with my coach as well as Tom and did paper trading in Think or Swim. Over three months I learned a lot and averaged a 6% monthly return. When I decided that I was ready to go live Tom and I had a call in which Tom shared with me how to allocate and diversify based on my initial brokerage amount. My return per month since going live in November has averaged 3% as I build my pipeline. In April due to markets conditions I had a setback as did everyone involved in the markets. The big difference was that due to the rules and training provided by Tom my loses were minimized vs other strategies that people offer. I anticipate that my ROI will be 6-8% in 2026 based on Tom’s and others in SOS ROI. There are people who post reviews that have never been in the program they are posting about and say things about people that they have never spoken with or met. All I can do is tell you that my experience with Tom, the SOS community, the tools and the training provided and teaching me how to run this as a business has been tremendously rewarding. I would wholeheartedly recommend this program to anyone.

Tom Hurd is very friendly and he wants to teach you his trading system in the best way possible. He is very experienced and extremely knowledgeable regarding trading futures options in the commodities market. He is dedicated to teaching his method to the SOS group through training videos and twice-weekly meetings. He posts all of his live trades in real time. Also, a report that shows all his active trades is posted daily, so you know where he stands on each trade and his overall account information. Also as part of the program, you are assigned an assistant coach that teaches a 13-week intensive training course that covers a large range of topics. They are designed to help you develop desirable trading rules, establish proper portfolio allocation, perform fundamental/technical analysis, and how to enter, manage, and exit trades. Another topic that is covered in depth is developing the proper mind set to trade. SOS has many experienced traders in the group. They are friendly as well and provide a lot of helpful information through the communication portal. I have learned so much about trading commodity options from SOS. I highly recommend the group.

I love everything about this group. We are like-minded individuals that communicate often and share common goals. We come from different walks of life, but great friendships are formed. I have been with the group for almost a year and can honestly say that I’ve never had this much success with any other trading program that I’ve been involved in.

Can’t say enough about Tom and his character and ethical approach. Excellent teacher providing a large amount of very helpful training. Extremely patient and wonderful at helping to explain complex principles re his very unique style of trading. I have to say I’m shocked at some of the low star reviews as been nothing but positive for me and my wife. Yes investing involves risk but if you truly follow Tom’s principles he outlines, you will be successful and can easily make more than the cost of his course in a very short amount of time. His videos are very easy to follow and self paced with weekly coaching meetings and you receive an assigned coach to guide and assist you along the way. His staff are simply the best and feel Tom is a great leader in this space and very happy we joined his program.

In my opinion, SOS is probably the best group I have experienced. Tom’s system is easy to learn. I am glad that I joined this group.

5 Stars – A Remarkable Experience with Sort Option Success! I’ve only been involved with Sort Option Success for a short time, and I’ll admit I approached it with a healthy dose of skepticism. However, Tom quickly changed my perspective. He’s been incredibly communicative and responsive—often taking the time to reply even outside normal business hours, which speaks volumes about his dedication. The group interaction is another standout. The people here are supportive, insightful, and genuinely invested in each other’s success. It’s easily one of the best professional communities I’ve ever been a part of. Tom’s passion for helping others is evident. He’s approachable, encouraging, and truly cares about the people in this group. His advice has been consistently spot-on and has already made a difference in how I approach options trading. Loving the experience so far—highly recommend!

I’ve now been in Short Option Success fourteen months and I can honestly say Tom and his trading strategy has upped my trading game many times over. I’m not only thrilled with the skills he’s helped me gain but I feel I’ve learned something that I will be able to use the rest of my life to help benefit me and my family like nothing I’ve ever seen before, and believe me when I say I’ve tried it all. This program is the real deal. I make the high single digits to low double digits monthly. It’s not a get rich quick scheme but it also doesn’t take a lot of time to do. The group camaraderie is a particularly special bonus. Thank you Tom and thank you to the rest of the team.
