Unfortunately that track record as of now is nearly worthless as far as raising money from investors. It's impressive gains no doubt and has clearly done a lot of good for your personal account, but I seriously doubt other investors would touch it. Not yet anyway... You had a few good months...

There's several things like this floating around but they are all based on the same concept. If you actually do prove to them you have a successful system, it won't be long before your system becomes their system. That's the whole point of them doing it. Same as things like World Quant. They...

and... Any plans for risk management or... ? As you stated with nothing more, I'm finding it hard to see how this trade is any better than flipping a coin...

"Im looking for a technical trading system that can make just a measly 3-6% ROI (not including fees and taxes) every day." I swear every week on this forum some new guy posts about making these kinds of percentages that would of course make them a multi billionaire in a few short years. You...

And if you choose to be impressed by pathetic funds that can't even beat a low cost index fund let alone anyone who knows what they are doing that is your prerogative.

Losses hurt a fund a lot more than gains help it, so simply because of that mathematical certainty it means long-term trading is probably going to be more profitable for most people. Sure there are short term traders who are very good and should stick to what they do, but we're talking about...

That fund and all others like it are way down in the last several years despite making whatever they made this month. I find it laughable that the media is so irresponsible to parade this guy out for making a billion dollars without telling people how many billions were lost bleeding money...

You're on the right track with this line of thinking OP, but you need to take it further than just simple deep ITM calls vs stock. Nobody who is successful at trading will help you very much, I guess I'm no different. I like to keep successful systems completely proprietary, selfish me right...

Maybe you placed a market order instead of limit order and got a bad fill price? That could explain why your account was displaying a negative P/L after you exercised the trade. BTW, totally agree with the other posters that you seem to be even beyond just a noob trader. I think most noob...

Again I'm going to have to disagree with you. Threads on Elite trader end with the experienced traders (not many of us around here) schooling the clowns who apparently haven't passed grade 8 math class (lots of you types all over this forum) About half my posts are informative and people...

You need to look up the definition of ad hominem. Since you've not stated any positions what so ever, have no point that you are defending, have not backed up a single thing you've said, it's not an ad hominem to say what I said. I am simply calling you an idiot. It has nothing to do with...

That's funny, I think the world is full of idiots who make comments without backing any of it up with anything, and somehow think that simply declaring something as true makes it true. Ok champ, you're right because you say so. Awesome. You've not yet, and definitely won't back anything up...

I'm not spinning anything. If Sos really does say with a straight face that he can make 1% a day in the long-run, I'll call him a f'ing idiot. But as I said, the only reference I've seen to anything close to that is when he talks about building a 1% a day theta decay portfolio. His only crime...

You do realize that would take a 100k account to BILLIONAIRE status in 5 years and the richest man in the world in just over 7 right? Instead of posting on a chat forum, you might want to consider finally passing grade 8 math class. "Sos has mentioned the 1% a day several times, it's no...

It wasn't a jackass comment, it was an educational one. You don't seem to have any idea what the VIX is, and maybe being made aware of that would push you to learn more and contribute things that are actually true? Or maybe it would just push you to make a backhanded reply and exit the thread...

You are incorrect my friend. Depending on the time frame you use, the VIX is only about 81% inversely correlated to the S&P, so very far from indistinguishable. And since the VIX is not an index, it's simply a snapshot statistic in time of the options activity on the S&P 500, of F'ing course...

That's a good thing that you aren't doing in your real account that dumb shit you're doing in your paper account. Trading Karen Supertrader style only leads to one place, bankruptcy. You know, there's a reason it's called 2 standard deviations. Because IT DOES HAPPEN. If it never happened...

I haven't seen them make any claims for expected annual returns, but then I don't watch the show religiously or anything. I've seen several, and never got the impression they were claiming astronomical returns. I've always been left with the impression they are just scalping the VRP for about...

Yes, there is an edge there and that is a profitable long term strategy, fact. I know option traders as a whole like to pretend there's some merit to being as complicated as humanly possible (myself included) the truth is sticking to very simple trade rules like the ones above taken from TT...

I don't think they've critiqued Karen at all. Her strategy is so clearly bullish, she's basically just long the market. So someone long the market did well during one of the biggest raging bull markets in history? you don't say..... The only thing amazing about Karen is her ability to raise...
