About the desk

Why we started

Most alert services are built the same way: post the winners, stay quiet about the rest, and let the survivorship bias do the selling. It works commercially for a while, and it is why the whole category has a credibility problem.

We started Rawstocks in 2023 because there was a simpler product available that nobody was selling — publish the entry, the stop and the target before the outcome is known, log what happened either way, and let people judge the desk on the full sample.

What we actually do

The desk trades options, mostly SPX and a rotating set of liquid single names. Three things go out to members:

• Alerts. Real-time, posted to Discord as positions are taken, then logged to the public record when they close.
• Sessions. Live trading during the session and a Sunday lesson working through market structure and options mechanics.
• Data. Gamma and dealer-positioning levels each morning, plus the QuantViper scanner that flags candidates for review.

Read the full methodology for how a level becomes a trade.

What we do not claim

We do not publish a win rate. Win rate without average win size, average loss size and position sizing is a number that can be engineered to say anything, and in this category it usually has been. What we publish instead is the complete alert record so you can compute whatever metric you actually care about.

We are not registered investment advisers. We do not manage money, we do not know your circumstances, and no alert is a recommendation for you specifically.

Where to find us

The community runs on Discord, billed through Whop. Public work goes out on YouTube and X, and longer analysis on the research blog. For anything else, get in touch.
