Live class on April 25, 12:00–4:00 PM CT
The complete four-hour class where Allison and Heather walk you through the full strategy from start to finish. Allison covers Trading the Open in the first two hours — how she reads the first 15-minute bar, identifies A+ setups, applies VIX-based stop rules, and uses the Profit Recycling System to lock in gains without triggering the PDT rule. Heather takes over for the final two hours with Trading the Close — her three-condition checklist, how she reads Quant Pivots to find her edge, and how she manages risk to consistently target gains multiple times the size of her risk.
This is a structured, step-by-step class. You’ll leave knowing exactly how to execute both setups, start to finish.
The same style of trade journal that Allison and Heather use to track their own performance is pre-built and ready to use. Log your entries, exits, P&L, and no-trade day decisions in one place. Over time, your data becomes one of your greatest edges. Consistency looks boring until you see what it builds.
The No Brainer Trend Label quickly shows you if a stock is in a bullish uptrend, a bearish downtrend, or in chop.
This indicator references the 8, 13, 21, and 50 EMAs and whether they are positively stacked, negatively stacked, or mixed, without needing those moving averages on the chart, so that you can quickly gauge the trend while keeping your charts clean.
Best Value
PRO PACKAGE - $697 Value: $1,532
With the Pro Package, you get everything in Basic plus three additional tools that make the strategy faster, sharper, and easier to execute from day one.
What’s Included:
This tool automates the strategy and makes it quick and easy to execute.
Instead of manually calculating your trigger level, target, stop movement, and profit-taking levels before the open, this indicator does it all in real time. As each bar forms, every level updates automatically. The moment the bar prints, everything locks in and appears on your chart. For SPX traders, it takes it one step further: it shows you the exact strikes to use for both your entry order and your cover order, so you’re never doing option chain math during a fast-moving setup.
The no-trade day rules are built directly into the indicator. If the first 15-minute range is too wide, or if a key prior-session level has been tagged, a red “No Trade Day” box appears on your chart automatically. The system tells you when to sit out, so you never have to second-guess it.
Live Session on April 24th, 11:30 AM - 12:30 PM CT
A live, guided installation session with Lorna, Simpler Trading’s technical expert. She’ll demonstrate how to set up your tools correctly before the class. The goal is for you to walk away with everything installed, configured, and ready to use. If you can’t attend live, a recording will be available.
Quant Pivots are the quantitative support and resistance levels that power Heather’s end-of-day strategy. Unlike standard ATR or expected move calculations, Quant Pivots are built from 100+ periods of historical data and tell you the exact statistical probability of a reversal at any given level. They recalculate after every new period, so the data is always current.
Frequently Asked Questions
A: Yes. The strategy is built around strict, objective rules. There’s no interpretation required. If you’re just getting started and want to focus on one chart with a simple, repeatable approach, this is exactly the right entry point.
A: The class covers both the SPX options version and the ES futures version of the strategy, depending on your account size and brokerage access. Allison and Heather will walk you through which version makes sense for your situation and how to execute it step by step.
A: Both strategies were specifically designed for small accounts. The strategy is also designed to avoid the Pattern Day Trading Rule using cash settlement, so you’re not stuck needing $25K to trade it actively.
A: A recording of the full class will be available. The strategy, the rules, and the indicator all work the same way whether you learn it live or on replay.
A: Absolutely. The Quant Pivots and the end-of-day setup in particular are sophisticated, statistics-driven tools that experienced traders find extremely useful. Even if you’ve been trading for years, Heather’s checklist approach to eliminating bad trades tends to be a significant edge for traders who already know the basics but struggle with consistency.
A: Real-time trade alerts are included with your Small Lot Trading Room membership. They’re sent directly from Allison and Heather’s trading accounts to your mobile device during the live sessions.
Meet The Traders
Allison Ostrander
Director of Risk Tolerance at Simpler Trading
Allison graduated from Stephen F. Austin State University with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Theatre. Wanting to make sure she wasn’t going to be a starving artist while pursuing theatre, Allison took up trading options after seeing her father successfully do the same. What started as an experiment with a paper trading account quickly grew into a passion. She decided to pursue trading full-time while investing in personal coaching classes. As a result, Allison was so successful that she made back her investment in her first trade. After that, there was no looking back.
Fast forward to today, Allison has become an integral part of the Simpler Trading family. With over 15 years of options trading experience, Allison continues to grow as a trader, sharing her knowledge within our community. She is a full-time professional trader and mother, and her ability to explain complex trading strategies and chart patterns with ease for both beginners and advanced traders has made her one of the most trusted voices in the Simpler community.
Allison is the creator of the Profit Recycling Strategy and has taught over a dozen classes to thousands of traders on how to become profitable in a small account. Her unique view of Capital Risk, the Chart, and the Option Chain can give any trader a new perspective on the market.
Heather Vanek
Director of Small Account Growth at Simpler Trading
Heather Vanek brings 14 years of trading experience to the Simpler Trading community — including direct mentorship from Simpler’s founder, John Carter. A full-time professional trader and author of The Mindful Trader, Heather specializes in growing small accounts and trader psychology, and is a frequent speaker at the Money Show. She is also currently studying to become a certified neuroscience coach.
Heather’s trading philosophy is built around one insight that most traders learn the hard way: you don’t need to catch the whole move to make real money. Her disciplined, rules-based approach to the close focuses on letting the statistics do the heavy lifting — using Quant Pivots to identify high-probability reversal setups, entering only when all three conditions of her checklist are met, and letting trades cash-settle so there’s no need to manage them in real time.
The result: a 10.30% average monthly return, an average risk of just $132.34 per trade, and a 67% win rate — with documented gains of 300%, 257%, and 233% in single trading sessions. When members in her room wanted to take profits early on a winning trade, Heather told them to hold. They learned to trust the process. The room started calling it “InHeatherWeTrust.”
Heather is a regular presence in the Small Lot Trading Room and brings a calm, structured energy to every session she teaches. For traders who are done with FOMO and ready to turn it into JOMO — the Joy of Missing Out on trades that don’t meet the rules — Heather’s approach is exactly what they’ve been looking for.
