You havent divulged what you consider a Value Stock and what methodology you are employing to discover them. Is it a DCF model?? Is it a relative valuation vs historical comparisons? Are there technical signals that lead to an Entry signal? You are using a time stop of 3-4 days? Why dont...

What's the relationship between a stud value guy and newbs selling puts??? I get Buffets theory on vol,but I wouldn't say he's a premium seller :)

How can you not remember that??

Not sure if you were replying to me,but is this the Jacobson you are referring to? Dont see the option trader connection. Is his approach Buffet esque?

Yes,but only cash secured,which essentially treats .20 delta a 1.00 eliminating leverage and hence real "bank" :)

Ive taken some monster hits short near by gamma,and in the words of Carly Simon,"I havent the need for the pain"

Yup.... legged out of conversions for 100 dollars plus..Merril came in buying to close,market orders.. I think 200 vol plus.. They came back weeks later and had the AMEX ask for significantly better fills. I left the Amex :)

Sell enough garbage puts and volatility will become risk of ruin. Speaking for myself,when the market proves me wrong,I am out of time

But you cant knock the cover off the ball selling puts without leverage.. And for every Jon,there are ten Vic Neiderhoffers.. What's insane is "we" are debating with a guy who is an Elliot waver and talks about trends...

Woth all due respect,you are dead wrong...

So they wont set a price stop?? Show me a backtest where CSP are "the greatest money maker period relative to risk".. Waiting......... How many great traders do you know that knocked the cover off the ball selling puts?? I see Boy Blunder( Mr Margin) has come up with a "new strategy" not...

If so,I am sure you will be telling us all about your Lambo Veneno courtesy of the adjustments made in the WX pricing model

When I considered Zacks,their #1 ranked stock returns were off the charts. I called their money management team asking for their returns as I was considering allocating some money.It was a while back,but the actual returns were a fraction of the Zacks # 1 advertised... Not saying Zacks doesnt...

I woulnt believe the hype regarding their ratings.. Call Zacks money management division and tell them you are looking to allocate money. Then ask for their audited returns... Let me know how that goes . Been there,done that :)

Yeah,Im not a fan,and it appears he's not taking leverage,so this tripling the return is really meaningless..
