    Swing Trading VS. Day Trading

    I once tried to estimate the amount of damage - in financial terms - my failed adventure costed me (I was around 28 back then and ‘lost’ 4 years). Trying to estimate this with all the butterfly effects is ofcourse a rather foolish attempt, but if I had to put a number on it.. it would be that I...

    Swing Trading VS. Day Trading

    You are asking for stats on some trading start about a decade ago :) In the end I didn’t loose too much because the EV<0 withheld me from trading too much. But ya know, living expenses didn’t paused either. What do you exactly mean by your last question?

    Swing Trading VS. Day Trading

    Long dated buying

    Because it is 'easier' (lol) to 'forecast' a direction than a box (one variable less)? legit, I understand (not that everything I dont understand is not legit from my view ;)) I don't think that relationship is lineair, but get your point. That was what I meant with smoothing the returns...

    Long dated buying

    I wonder if it would make any difference, in theory at least. You would pay indeed for the unlimited upside or drop to zero, but also these ‘tails’ are - in theory - priced accordingly, and perhaps when you are named Taleb even underpriced from your point of view. Spreads/boxes do help for a...

    The general idea is to cap the downside (relatively more then the upside) trying to better the risk/reward and to size up a bit more. Or do you say it’s better to search it in diversified assets?

    I think you can adjust this with the ratio of the long position versus the overwrite, keep delta in check. This will change ofcourse when underlying moves. And you want to roll the longer term options bc of spreads

    True, but don’t calendars have a risk cap as opposed to ‘long stock’? Especially stocks, which can have gaps. Then one could say these gaps down and their P(x) are discounted in the long leg, the other side would be more smoothness of equity returns?

    This guy thinks a 30% drop is coming

    I did buy some volatility though at these levels, just to (imperfectly) offset the long positions. It will probably lose, but that’s oké
