Who is Jim Claxton?

Jim is an active options trader focused on index products — primarily QQQ — where dealer hedging mechanics create repeatable, observable behavior. His edge isn't prediction. It's positioning: knowing where the gamma is, watching what market makers are forced to do, and sizing accordingly.

He runs defined-risk income structures (iron condors, strangles) alongside tactical flow-based trades, and he publishes the full record — including the strategy he shut down after it stopped working.

"Whether it works or not, I'm not comfortable proceeding given recent performance" is the kind of sentence you'll actually read here.
