Karen the Supertrader - TastyTrade Hybrid Experiment

[ironchef]

Ngmm.. Short volatility trading. I have been in trading for nearly 18 years and have seen a lot of short volatility trader, unfortunately the story always the same, small win consistently (in their dream) until sh** hits the fan ..

Should be OK if you don't leverage?

thanks

Agree with OP, selling the puts isnt best, howsoever selling them on VIX in conjuction with calls on index at this day and age interesting

This post, this is interesting. Can you explain a bit more? Thanks.

OK for the lazy, here is the original thread:

http://www.elitetrader.com/et/index.php?threads/karen-the-supertrader.254837/#post-3699074

And here is my summary of her performance posted in that thread:



Now there could be an explanation why she is not completely clear on her record: HFs can not advertise and going on a show and touting her record would count as such and she could be fined. By the time she was on TastyTrade, she already had enough money under management, so I don't think she cared about getting more... Just my projection...

Most likely she never had a better than 50% return, specially not with the HF. It would be interesting to know her record in the last 3 years, but I couldn't find anything on the net when I looked a few weeks ago...

Karen turns 100.000 into larger sums after much hard work within making a profit to 100.000 target 1st - Through using she strategy.

2nd Over the next 5 to 6 years increases profit towards 41 million after another 7 years. Whats wrong with that. It can be done -

We have improved the Karen strategy by adding additional underlying. /CL/ZB /6E /GC /NG. We now have a little diversification in the portfolio. Ouote: Sweet Boy : OK - DTB2 back to you - Having looked at the remaining few pages back - I can now see the company in question has failing registered against its self - I had not realized I merely applied answer to the first part of the comments - As in a profit in market is capable of being made. But now I have noticed - is this Karans Company ? - Is under complete collapse - Is this a good thing or just not enough attention to detail being payed at the time which is why losses have incurred the latter - I would image.? The simply answer - Is that they that they Know or Knew - And did no shit all - This also happen to Alpari UK back in 2014 I was there watching the action unfold.

lol...You sound like an incoherent me, while I was back in college...and tried to rush a paper essay or quiz or exam the last minute, in a desperate, feeble attempt to sound logical and smart and rational and analytical.

But I'm pretty sure the teacher realized it's just a bunch of gibberish bs quickly thrown together.
And the Grade received definitely reflected that.

What the hell what Bro - I WAS JUST Quoting from you to get in on the story. As well - where is your trading account not being made available as to your new found system. You dropped flat.

I haven’t dropped anything! My plan is working out nicely! Up over 7% for the year and cruising toward 51% over the next 52 weeks. But of course today came, the market dropped severely and I blew up my account!

Y’all were right. It’s been fun. I’m going into multilevel marketing!

You and I finally agree on something!
