Quote from jones247:
I need your help. I'm trying to locate the username of an individual who was very a successful trader here on ET. I believe that he implied that his primary strategy was short straddles or short strangles. I believe that he had several years of 100+% return on capital.
I came across his posts several months ago... Although this is an extreme long shot, I'm hoping that it "rings a bell" with someone. I vaguely recall that he may have created a thread, but I'm not certain.
thanks,
Walt

thanks soooooo much Stock Piker... I believe it was indeed "tivthetrader"... btw, was he primarily a short strangle trader? I know that Vtrader is an almost exclusive options trading firm...
thanks again...

honestly, short naked option selling is perhaps the easiest thing to trade BUT with the largest risk and the greatest amount of capital required...Quote from jones247:
