I’ve known Markus since the fall of 2024, when I participated in three mentoring sessions with him on options. In 2025, I got to know him better as an instructor in an options program.
Markus gets straight to the point and conveys a great deal of information without digressing. His material is very focused. I enjoy listening to it multiple times. He doesn’t sugarcoat things but gives his honest and experienced assessment.
I enjoyed checking out his new program, “Operating System” from 2026. I thought I could now consider myself a somewhat experienced options trader. Unfortunately, Markus hit a nerve and forced me to improve. Inspired by Markus, I’ve developed a new checklist for opening trades to help me avoid potential bad trades that can wipe out many successful ones.
Markus’s approach focuses on the completely understandable—yet not obvious—difference between knowledge and actual implementation. Many traders know a lot. However, they don’t apply that knowledge efficiently. I revisited many training courses a year later and was shocked at how little of what I’d learned I’d actually put into practice. Markus’ “operating system” is a clear inspiration for turning what you’ve learned into action—something that, unfortunately, many people truly fail at.
As Michael Voigt says, many traders try out a wide range of strategies haphazardly and unsuccessfully before consistently implementing a limited number of strategies.
