I blew up the account. My first experience was good I only got (1) call about my trading. I think I will try again next month with the 50k. It would be nice to see how many times someone can pass the step 1 and 2 to get a funded account. i spent about 700-800 for a $1500 account. I couldnt...

what do you mean moving risk? if anyone sold a put naked most or all of the capital is locked up in margin. Unless their trading a million dollar account. The other thing about selling 0.05 options at least in $SPX it must expire because they trade in 0.05 increments. This strategy can work for...

-1300 now if I blow out this I'll try again but instead using a 50k which gives a larger draw down.

The unlucky option sellers who's puts expired this week have their years gains wiped out but I guess rolling it will make it better. but the probability was only 5%. This is why you dont sell 0.05 puts. If you were lucky to not have your puts expire this week your probably over 100 points away...

Update: I decided to open another account with Stage 5 my tradovate membership expired and the commissions really dont make sense for me to not explore other options I will still use my topstep account on the tradovate trader. There online platform is the best I've used though when its really...

I joined and its actually really good there isnt much "educational material" posted yet but the information that is posted is relevant to the market. The chatroom puts out good info I dont pay attention to other peoples anaysis because i dont want it affecting mine. But there have been several...

no still have 750 left

Week 1 of my funded account im down $753 I took friday off and I might start back Monday if I do the plan is to not allow more than 200 draw down so i will have to pull in my targets to 3 points instead of a min of 5 points.

I love robinhood now that they have options I trade options using them excursively there is no $SPX but I deal with it by trading $SPY options instead. The interface is a bit slow if you want to change your order. But overall I love it a decent trader can make a decent return trading using...

Is anyone planning on joining future trader 71s convergence(https://convergenttrading.com/)? I have a similar membership that I got in late 2015 luckily it was just a one time fee. The one i joined has weekly meetings and chatroom I haven't actually joined the meeting or participated in the...

I was looking at sierra charts for how they display the volume that is filtered and in the forum they say that its not possible to reliably detect large orders I wanted to see how the people that claim to have a volume filter actually get this info. FYI they also say even the CME matching engine...

I was under the old program where once you get passed part 1 it’s free I did several resets though. But yeah from the traders perspective paying for both parts isn’t good but they did relax the rules a bit.

I passed step 2 signed the agreement form paid the data fee and updated my topstep profile. In about a week I should be trading live. as you can see from the daily report I will probably have an issue with the $500 daily limit this has gotten me out of 3 part 1s. But under the funded account you...

Has anyone looked at SJ Options youtube here is one where he analyzes some tastytrade strategys. I myself actually started with tastytrade which I think was very lucky I was more skeptical of the other people that I found which were the typical make a million dollar trading is easy pitch line...

I agree there are different ways to make money. No one way is the best each person must find there own best way.

I found out the hard way in 2015 during the correction luckily I had a few long put further out in expiration and it just so happened we keep going down so I ended up making even more money than I lost on the short puts that expired Thursday night I had over 25k in loses on 3 puts I sold for $5...

Buying options is a good way to get into a stock make sure its deep ITM that way your paying less extrinsic value and you get closer to a 1:1 move though trying to liquidate can take a while because the spreads will be wide but you should get the min of the intrinsic value of the deep ITM...

Another example of a “low” probability event $spy 274 call expiring tomorrow 0.19 delta had 33% Probability 273 had a 42% by the Numbers you can sell those right? How would a newbie handle that going ITM with no protection

That works to but most ppl can’t get back in after getting out with a profit for fear of losing that profit

These services will likely not help much when you dont have an idea of what your trading style fits you. You should get the basics on your own then look for services I would recommend to not go with anyone that cant show you an audited tax return or a live broker statement online. To many...
