In my opinion, some of the major attributive causes for a high failure rate among Forex traders may include lack of proper education, emotional trading, and unrealistic goals which they set. It simply makes the point that the trader has to know how the market operates and be armed with some...

Analysts provide their own vision, which can be more or less accurate. But, you have to trust your own gut when it comes to decision making.

Well, it's always the Wall Street fees, isn't it? They just can't resist taking a big bite out of our real estate profits.

I'll try my best! Hopefully, you will like one of my posts. Otherwise, my life will be pointless.

Well, what you want to do is use your strategy on each stock to see how well it does. For example, if your strategy involves looking at moving averages (which is like an average price over a certain period), you could figure out how much money you would have made on average when the stock's...

It's a bit strange how the stock market sometimes reacts the opposite way to what you'd expect, but it's all about what investors think will happen with interest rates. In my opinion, it's important to keep an eye on the big picture and not get too caught up in these short-term ups and downs.

OMG! And how can I live without your likes? What should I do now to get a single like from you!?

Well, your story shows that there's no single trading strategy that works for everyone. It's totally fine to change things up and go with what works best for you.

I think it's good to concentrate on just one stock because you can really get to know how it behaves. But, this might mean you miss out on other chances to make money. Maybe think about having a few different stocks to choose from.

But it looks like you enjoy what I'm saying. Isn't it? :)

When you're doing a straddle strategy by picking up both a call and a put option at the same price, like your $514 for SPY, it's a bit different than selling any of them, which you mentioned. Normally, with a straddle, you're not selling options; you're buying both to cover both directions the...

Bot? Lol! thank you! :))))

Can you recommend any other of her books that you really liked?

I've read 'Reading Stock Charts' by Heather Cullen. Great book for beginners. I like that it explains everything in simple terms.

In my view, even though you can't exercise European-style options like the SPX ones early, their prices still closely follow the actual stock prices. This happens because of how the trading world works—people and companies trading these options make sure prices are fair based on what's happening...

I think it's just an article or a piece of a book that has never been published. As I see from your discussion and the calculator you've shared here, those sources can't be counted as trustworthy. Well, the saddest thing is that even when you sign up for a class, tutors share papers like this...

Leverage: Leveraging Up and In Options for Enhanced Returns' - That's the book name. I found it online from the quotes the OP shared. I dunno who is the author, but I think you can download it online.

Here's an example to illustrate how this strategy might work in practice: Suppose the SPY is currently trading at $400. According to the strategy, you'd look for a DITM call option with a delta close to one and a target strike price at about 60% of SPY's price, which would be around $240 in this...

When prop firms request a trading track record, they typically look for a history that demonstrates consistent performance and risk management over time. While there isn't a one-size-fits-all answer, a minimum of 1 to 2 years of trading history can be a good starting point. This period allows...

That's a fascinating strategy you've stumbled upon, shMark! Leveraging Deep In-The-Money (DITM) call options to potentially enhance returns is indeed an innovative approach. It offers an interesting blend of leveraging the potential upside of the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY) while mitigating...
