    Completely agree with low-risk entry. But I will be amazed if there are any truly riskless entries if we cannot predict the price

    Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

    I agree with the first part, however, I thought he was ok with small losses, he mentioned that a couple of times. But I may be wrong, I did not read the whole thread yet. I thought the pre-requisite was to have good risk-reward and high-probability (win) entries

    Obviously, it should be your first time since it is your first day on this forum ;) . There are some other obvious-but-not-so-obvious facts in this thread that you have to figure out.

    Hi all, I understand that the CMBO index tracks the return of a monthly-rolled SPX covered combo strategy, therefore should be 2x short SPX exposure on the downside. However, the index return is similar to SPX return during Feb-Mar period of this year when the SPX index had a massive drawdown...
