Check out Orats and run backtests on various stocks/portfolios with varying expirys and DTE ... Keep in mind buying one ATM call vs buying one 110 of spot call may not be a fair comparison. I would compare equal delta's and or equal dollars as well.. As the above is essentially...

Not true.. If you do not apply leverage,ATM put selling performed well relative to benchmarks. There are several academic research reports on the subject. You could also run simulations with a backtester like Orats and see how DTE and strike affect returns

Your situation is much different.Im a vol trader.Pretty sure you will get some good feedback.Best of luck

13 years is a long time to be away. IMHO,at a bare minimum you will have to have decent skin in the game if you are looking for a backer.. I retired from Wall Street in 2002,and "goofed" off until covid kept me off the slopes and from coaching..Im trading full time now and establishing a track...

Not sure where you are going with this. Momentum is one,of the few market anomilies that "exists". There are many academic papers written on it. Does that mean every piker can exploit it?? Of course not.And if you can and do,why the fook would you post your returns and have some site?? The...

Don't be shy..keep on asking questions...And if you don't quite understand,ask away..

Not saying I like your strategy,but at least you are capping your risk. He's taking risk for very little return,and instead of covering/hedging,he arbitrarily flips the other way and goes short the put after a 10 to 15 percent rally.... It's wrong on every level

He has no plan and is taking large risk to make peanuts.. First he's naked short a cheap call,waits for the stock to rally 10 to 15 percent to rhe short strike and then arbitrarily flip from short 50 delta's to long 50 delta's by sythetically being short the,ATM put.. Whats his plan if the...

Here is the deal. Hes selling a relatively cheap OTM call.He never mentioned implied vol.. He's willing to let his Delta go from apx 10-20,to. 50 without hedging.Instead of getting flat at the short strike,he now decides to get long 50 delta's,heading to 100 if the market reverses.. Makes zero...

Minervini is,a much different beast than those guys..Read a book of,his or momentum masters..

So you sell the 110- 115 percent of spot call,watch the stock rally 15 percent at which point you buy 100 shares,even though yourself is not near 1???So now stock you are synthetically short the put at most likely a very very unfavorable price with downside exposure Now what??

Brace yourself....I think he charges a boatload..Have you read Momentum Masters?
