I understand the technical parts of what everybody is saying. I think I’m going to stick to trading weeklies. Try to give myself 5-15 trading days to expiration. I have made plenty of profit on those type of trades. One of the problems with zeros if you get it wrong, it’s gonna go against you...

Just google anything about zero days to expiration options and you’ll see it’s a real big thing right now. The volume has grown dramatically, but is this just gambling? I have tried my share of 0DTE recently and basically I’ve broken even. To me it just feels like gambling. you have extreme...

Yes, exactly but his on the court results Scott him in the Hall of Fame. My point here is that this is a guy that focused on just one thing out of a countless number of things that he could’ve focused on like other players do. He was very successful at that.

Yes, it is Dennis Rodman. And yes he is in HOF... inducted in 2011..here is the link. https://www.hoophall.com/hall-of-famers/dennis-rodman/

Very well said. This reminds me of the great NBA basketball player only focused on one thing getting rebounds. He didn’t focus on anything else, he won championships and is in the Hall of Fame for it.

This is the latest scam. It’s all over Facebook and Instagram and yes it’s borderline hilarious let me get this straight. You’ve got a system that can turn $200 into 20,000 in a month and you’re going to sell that system for 200 bucks yeah OK.

I’m so happy that I keep a detailed record so I can look at things later and analyze. This week all of my day trades were profitable and all of my swing trades were losses. This got me looking at my track record. I am strictly on options trader. So far I’ve only looked at 2023 but I have...

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Allegedly daytrading is harder, but my results are literally night and day between day trading and swing trading.

very well said... I needed that.. yes shut the hell up and enjoy the profit,,, or the lesser loss

I cannot be the only one who does this. Exit a trade... and then watch to see what would have happened if I held. It it goes further against my trade I feel like I did great to take the loss before it got worse. If it goes further with my trade I feel bad because I missed out on more profit...

I trade options.. swing trades of a few days hold, and a little day trades... the only negative Nancy is the one in my head... but I have not told everyone in my life of the decision

very well said... my sales job , that I freaking hate, at least has a salary plus commissions,,, but I hat it...

how I am feeling??? can barely describe.. the thing is that I have gone all in on self employment situations many times over the last 20 years. So why do I have all the crazy thoughts on trading? I just know like only I can know that it is the right thing for me.

I have written about this many times. I have decided (unless I change my mind) that March 15 is the date. I will quit the sales full time sales job and go full time with trading. I do have a side business where I sell Surf gear that brings in enough to cover my expenses and I will keep doing...

UPDATE: first off, wow I did not expect this big of a response. I am sure that many traders dream of being full time like me. I failed to mention that I have a side business of selling windsurf/surf/wing gear. That is making enough to cover my monthly expenses and I love it, it is fun. I...

thank you .. I agree, since creating this post I had a birthday, I am now 56,,,if I do not go for when will I .

great advice... I actually have another side gig that is bringing in enough to cover my monthly expenses, and it is fun. no there is no option on the full time job to go part time

funny you mention that... I used to have a bunch of indicators on my charts,,, now it is just price.. the only thing that matters

that is the funny thing,,, I am making 2X in trading what I am in the sales job..
