And you my dear man appear to be a brother to that profitaker nick. How many of you caught the blowoff and bought the bottom just now, not too many I would say. I can do this with one hand and still make money, and the reason is, I know what I am doing. As for your imaginary friends...

I am responding to anyone who wants to learn a bit about how the real world of Options trading actually works. If you make a conscious decision that you already posses adequate knowledge that enables you to extract profits from the Market Makers, week in and week out, then you are in no need...

All I am doing is posting a few serious trading related questions, that, anyone who professionaly trades and knows what way the markets operate, should be able to answer, easily ! It is very simple. If you must, then read my questions again. RPT

Is it not funny how you all seem to avoid answering the questions posted and raise force fields the minute someone questions your basic logic ! I am here only because I was asked by a friend, no other reason, and I will not be staying long here by the looks of things, but I will wait to see...

Ok, lets see who want's to answer this question ! Why, and when, would a Market Maker bid up the price of a Call Option, knowing that he may have to Buy that Option at that price if someone decides to sell it to him ? Remember, a Market Maker has to make a market on either side, that is...

It is very easy if you know what you are doing ! What is the biggest risk you take when you decide to trade, and I don't mean in $ terms, I mean in trading terms. Once you know what your biggest risk is, then you can work backwards and lessen the risk. The more you work on it, the less and...

That is 20% per year or per month? Makes a lot of difference how you phrase it. If its 20% per month its a bit high for most traders, but on a yearly basis its really low. Most put writers should average around 5- 10 % per month, without taking extraordinary risks and flirting with danger. [/B]...

This is completely wrong. Options are used as part of an overall strategy to hedge risk, based on the odds and the capital put at risk in the market. The target is not the Options for the big player, it is the underlying. Those of us that know how it works can take advantage of this and...

I am not sure as to what your game is young man, but from your abrupt writing it appears that you have a lot to learn. Profitaker implies that you are profitable. If you are indeed profitable, then maybe you would like to expand on my comments. If you so called Elite Traders want to show...

And why do you just Write Options ? It takes two sides to make a market, and, surely, depending on the underlying movements, it can, at times, be more profitable to Buy Options as opposed to Writing them ! I am amazed to see so much hype about writing Options, and even more amazed to see...

Now, please give an honest answer in relation to my reply, and what you really think of it. Do not worry about what others will think of your reply. Remember, when you trade, it is Your Money on the table, not their money, so everything you consider should be in realtion to how it is going...

Always remember, that when you digest information in relation to the markets, that most of it is twisted. When I speak of a "Flaw", I speak in the context of the overall operation of the market under scrutiny. If you read my original post, you will see that I clearly stated that the...

This thread seems to have a lot of numbers against it, so maybe here I will get a direct answer. How many of you know what happens in the market when you write, or Buy, an Option. What chain of events do you start the minute you get filled on your trade. Think about it, for the majority...

And now we have some additional force fields and smoke screens, and funny how some of the nicks seem to be the same ! So, let me ponder this. I am someone else from another site called trade2win. I have posted here in the past, and now I am back to post some more. Are you guys for real ...

I see that some of you are already raising the force fields. OK, let me spell it out. Why should I, or anyone, for that matter, post their trading results on a public forum. A child would not ask such a silly question. Now, what all of you should have asked me, is, how are you able to...
