The trusted provider of options news, education and trading
strategies goes public
CHICAGO--(Business Wire)--
The Options News Network announces the launch of ONN.tv targeting
everyone who uses options as a part of their diversified portfolios,
and who are seeking timely news, options education, and options
trading strategies.

   In a recent site review, Condor Options noted that, "This site
definitely targets an unfilled niche in the world of online financial
journalism: nobody else is providing quality video coverage of the
options markets, and if they keep adding new educational posts and
videos at anything like their current pace, this could become one of
the best resources for options education anywhere on the web."

   ONN.tv is a free site, offering viewers a mix of education, news,
and entertainment targeting novice, intermediate, and advanced options
traders. Initially devoted to equity options, ONN.tv plans to launch
programming about options on commodities, financial futures, indexes
and ETFs during the next quarter.

   Current ONN.tv programming offers a rich mix of educational and
news shows.

   For instance, OptionsPhysics provides an extensive library of
learning material regardless of an options trader's experience and
skill. OptionsPhysics Advanced continues your education from the
Basics lessons by teaching you more advanced concepts and options
strategies. Kevin Cook, the host of OptionsPhysics noted that,
"OptionsPhysics is our passionate attempt to make options knowledge
relevant, useful, and fun for the self-directed investor."

   The Sidewinder Real Time Update, shot every morning from the floor
of the Chicago Board of Options Exchange, provides traders with an
early glimpse at what institutional traders are doing in specific
symbols and options contracts, and is based on three different
proprietary strategies. Jud Pyle provides independent traders with the
real-time impact and analysis of institutional players on specific
stocks, with particular emphasis on implied volatility and options
pricing. "The Sidewinder was designed with the independent investor in
mind. It's simple - it shows you what's hot by telling you where the
volatility and volume are in the options market... the liquidity, so
to speak," said Pyle.

   "Even stock investors who have never traded an option before are
becoming more interested daily in the use of options to protect their
investments or generate additional income. ONN.tv can help them as
well learn how to understand and integrate options into their stock
trading methodology," said Matt Buckley, the CEO of ONN.tv.
