Iron Sharpens Iron Trading — premium options selling community, Proverbs 27:17

Automated trade ideas, posted all day

This is the engine of the community. Our scanner sweeps the market throughout the trading day, tests what it finds against the same disciplined framework behind every trade here, and posts the qualifying setups straight to Discord — the setup, the trade, and exactly why it was flagged. No waiting for someone to feel like posting. The ideas just keep coming.

# short-put-ideas

Short put ideas

Premium-selling setups on quality names — the strike, the credit, the probability of profit, and the expected move, all in one post. Every idea shows its work: IV Rank, trend, liquidity, open interest, and an earnings warning whenever an announcement is close enough to matter.

# small-account-trade-ideas

Credit spread ideas

Defined-risk put credit spreads built for smaller accounts — the max loss per contract is stated up front, so the risk is capped and the buying power stays reasonable. Same scanner, same discipline, sized for accounts that can't tie up cash securing puts.

# personal-trade-desk

Your own personal trade-idea channel

The community channels are just the start. Every member also gets a private trade desk of their own: you choose the stocks the ideas pull from, tailored to the size of your account and the trade types you like to take — short puts, credit spreads, or both.

When one of your stocks sets up, your channel fires with the idea. Your watchlist, your size, your style — scanned all day while you're at work.

A daily watch of stocks trading within a few dollars of their 20, 50, or 200-day moving averages — support and resistance levels where setups form — each with its IV Rank attached.

The 4-Pillar Probability-First Framework

Every trade — and every automated idea — runs through the same four checks. No discretion, no gut calls: if a setup doesn't clear all four pillars, it doesn't get placed. The pillars are the discipline. The exact entry criteria and numbers behind them are taught inside the community.

Pillar 1

Sell Expensive Premium

We only sell when volatility is paying us properly for the risk. Expensive premium is the edge — selling cheap premium is just picking up pennies. How rich is rich enough? That's one of the numbers members get.

Pillar 2

Delta Strike Selection

Strikes are chosen by probability, not by hope, using a defined selection process that keeps the odds — and the math — on the seller's side. The exact strike rules are part of the system taught inside.

Pillar 3

The 45/21 Cycle

Every position runs on a set rhythm: opened on a planned schedule, then managed on a planned schedule — long before expiration week turns into a coin flip. The timing is mechanical, and it's the same for every trade.

Pillar 4

Mechanical Rules

Entries, exits, and profit-taking are decided by rules written down in advance — not by how a trade feels at 2 p.m. Winners get banked, capital gets freed, the next setup gets found. The full rulebook lives inside the community.

Skip one and you're gambling. Hit all four and you have edge.

What makes us different?

  • ✕NO FAKE FLEXING.No rented cars, no screenshot-of-the-day lifestyle marketing.
  • ✕NO GUARANTEED RETURNS.Anyone promising those is selling you something. It isn't this.
  • ✕NO CHERRY-PICKED WINNERS.The full trade log posts — the losers sit right next to the winners.
  • ✓A PUBLIC SCORECARD FOR THE IDEAS.The performance dashboard tracks the trade ideas' success rate — judge the engine by its record, not by our adjectives.
  • ✓REAL-TIME TRADE LOGS.Entries and exits as they happen, not recapped after the fact.
  • ✓REAL RULES, FOLLOWED OUT LOUD.The same 4 pillars on every trade, including the ones that lose.

Don't take our word for it — the ideas keep score

Both trade-idea channels feed a performance dashboard that tracks every idea the engine posts: what's open, what's closed, the win rate, average hold, and the P&L curve over time. It's the same view members get — so you can judge how trustworthy the ideas are from the record itself, not from a sales page.

Trade Idea Performance dashboard: every posted short-put and credit-spread idea tracked with win rate, average hold, and cumulative P&L

The dashboard tracks the trade ideas as posted, not any individual member's brokerage account. Individual results vary — which ideas you take, your position sizing, and your execution all change your outcome, and past performance does not guarantee future results.

Straight from the Discord

Whop reviews are one thing — this is what members say day to day, inside the community chat itself.

Questions

Premium selling — short puts, cash-secured puts, and defined-risk credit spreads — run through one mechanical, four-pillar framework: sell only when premium is rich, choose strikes by probability, run every position on a set open-and-manage cycle, and take profits by rule instead of by feel. The exact entry criteria and numbers are taught inside the community — and they're the same rules the scanner applies to the automated trade ideas all day.

The membership includes the full course library, which starts at Options 101 — what calls and puts are, how premium works, strike, expiration, and contract size — and builds up to the complete framework. The trade alerts make more sense every week you work through the lessons, and the Discord is there for questions.

Enough to collateralize the positions you take. A cash-secured put requires cash set aside equal to the strike price × 100 shares, so account size decides which underlyings are realistic for you. Defined-risk spreads need far less. Start with position sizes your account can shrug off — the framework only works if you can follow its rules without flinching.

Yes. Billing runs through Whop — cancel from your Whop account in a couple of clicks and your membership simply doesn't renew. No calls, no retention scripts.
