LeonPhelps Incomplete knowledge can be completed. No knowledge is dangerous and wipes out accounts. Do you already have all the knowledge? For my side I don't need to have the perfect knowledge. I enjoy the process of learning. I also enjoy the process of communicating and sharing. I...

artes I would just keep it simple. When you start to hedge you are not sure about your position and should get out. You also should only take hedging vehicles into consideration which you 100% understand and can manage. opt789 also pointed into the direction that trading various strikes...

Wayne Gibbous I think we are always think that to get rich we need to start big. That is not the case. Its compounding and persistance. I have started very small very often the last 20 years. Ive made mistakes which I will not repeat any more. Key is clever money management and taking...

LeonPhelps I will not sell an option at zero. I will sell it at 0.40 on average.

opt789 Something unexpected would mean that the vola drops below 10. Basically that means that the SPX stops to move. Do you think thats realistic? VIX options cant be compared to index or stock options. There is a big difference. I bet that you and I know much more than some big players...

Attached graphics shows an equity curve under the assumption that premium of the written put would be 10% of payroll each month and that two times a year the VIX is below the strike of 11 (but no more than to make a drawdown of 10%). Its all assumtions. Who can make some backtesting on...

VIX Levels over passed weeks (about 3-4 years). The level of 12 is crossed to the downside many times. A better level would be 10. What would be a realistic premium? There are some specialities with VIX options. Good source for VIX options education...

Is the VIX better to be forecasted than the SPX? See attached the VIX and its historical and implied vola.
