Quote from DisciplinedHedg:

I have never had a mentor.

early in my studies,
i looked for a mentor to mentor me in 100% of my life.
after repeated unsuccessful attempts,
i learned to seek out mentors for specific guidance in my life.
quickly,
i found a mentor for vision,
a mentor for discipline,
a mentor for money management,
a mentor for risk,
a mentor for family,
and many others...
(i might add
not through books,
but through normal relationships
with men i hold in high esteem)

hedg,
be encouraged,
i would guess you found a couple of mentors on ET,
hence, your willingness to contribute your valuable energies to this thread.

imho,
bwb

Quote from DisciplinedHedg:

For options, I'm a writer. I will hedge those positions with the underlying futures.

I trade intra-day but will hold most options until expiration.

How does your normal intra-day scenario play out?

Do you always have a long or a short position in the market and are there times when you are cash only?

 

[TraDaToR]

How do you hedge your options positions with futures? Are you initiating a long futures position when a call gets ITM for example? What do you do if it reverts and gets OTM again?

Thanks.

 

[shortie]

as an example, what is VIX response to the current large market move telling you now?

There are many days when I am 100% cash.

Quote from TraderZones:

In a place that you said has minimal value (ET)...

and that you said provided boredom...

and given the fact that you are pretty anonymous...

and that we get a lot of paper traders that claim to be special

why do you think "Professional Trader" applies to you?

and why do people so readily fall all over themselves to prostrate?

What are you trying to accomplish by asking these questions? You're obviously on a mission to scrutinize every post on this board yet you don't seem to add anything valuable of your own. Move on, the OP isn't selling anything...

It seems he has a problem with every one. Sicktrader's thread was soiled by his persistent crapping all over it.
