Thanks Chris, and hey guys - thanks for checking out Gatsby! We think that options are really powerful, and yet none of our friends use them because they feel too complicated. We wanted to re-think the experience to make it simpler and more social. We're in beta and are onboarding waitlisters each week over the next couple months. Please signup and give us feedback!

Answering a couple q's below! There is no account minimum to get started. You connect your bank details securely with Plaid, and can start trading within a few minutes of signing up. You can see what your friends are trading on / against. We don't do binary options!
How much do I need to know going in? I've never traded options before.
Maker
We really want users to be able to make their first trade without any prior knowledge of options other than a suspicion that the stock will move up or down by a certain date.
This is awesome - what's the minimum amount to start trading?
Maker
There's no minimum!
sweet! Excited to give it a try!
This is a brilliant product that gives everyone now the 'option' (uh hu!) of trading within a much simpler and intuitive environment - great job Gatsby - well done.
I have really enjoyed using the beta version of this product. Makes something complex so simple and accessible for anyone.

Glad you like it :)
This looks promising, I just signed up for the waitlist 🤘

Thanks! Also remember to refer friends to jump up the waitlist.
Love this idea! Have used the beta version and it's super simple and intuitive. Great work guys
Looks like a great product guys. Just one question can I see what my friends are trading?
Maker
Yep. Can follow friends, and see what other Gatsby users are trading on (for or against).
looks crisp, I look forward to try it :D!!!

Means a lot from you Omar 🤙
I'm very skeptical about these products that "simplify" things like options trading. There's a lot of depth to options trading that goes beyond betting on an upside or downside of a stock and these products seem to be adopt this vulture-like mentality of trying to engage a lot of potential investors by saying here's this really way to make a lot of money in the market and this simple approach. You can lose a LOT of money trading options and the risks are far greater than just trading stocks ( time value is against you when you buy options, not when you buy stocks, you can lose money on loss of volatility in options etc...)
