Does anyone operate with options?

[ZEsHAR]

Does anyone here operate with options?

[karnov26]

Yes, me.Opero with traditional binary options ... I already went through that.Bye bye!

[ZEsHAR]

Do you know the Straddle strategy?It is originally for options, but I use it in foreign exchange.

[TNgesrcesy10]

Please publish that strategy here ... I already went through that.Bye bye!

[ZEsHAR]

I do not work with options personally, but I wondered if someone here uses this strategy.[Video inserted] [Video inserted]

If you buy a Straddle, you assume that the underlying asset will make a large and unexpected movement that is no longer calculated in the price.Buying a Straddle in an action before a profit advertisement is dangerous because the cost of the Straddle is the expected movement of the action.For example: Xyz is at $ 101.Call costs $ 4 and the put costs $ 4.The total cost of the Straddle is $ 8.This means that the market expects this action to move $ 8 between now and the expiration.If the action rises to $ 109, you will earn $ 4 in the call and lose $ 4 in the put, with a net result of $ 0.The action would have to move to $ 109.10 to start earning money.Some traders sell Straddles in biotechnology actions before FDA ads because implicit volatility can be very high (200%-400%

I have tried to learn about options, but beyond the basics, it is complicated when they begin to talk about the Greeks, deltas, etc.My internet is slow now, so I have not reviewed the video of the message #5.I have downloaded a demo platform to practice and learn more.I think a simple Straddle is almost a game of chance.Prices are already carefully calculated, and I think they take into account Straddle traders.Initially I thought that a Straddle could work by charging the winning position before the expiration, when it exceeds the cost of both operations.But the problem is that the option does not always move in line with the underlying instrument.For example, you can buy a CALL option at EUR/USD at 1,3110.If the price rises to 1,3210, you could discover that the value of the option has only increased 121 pips or even less.Do not send me private messages on coding consultations.

In addition, they charge you commissions on both sides, and another one if you decide to keep one side and repurchase the other.You need a strong and sustained movement in one direction so that your account grows.Personally, I have not bought options for years.Now I sell naked options or credit spreads.My account has changed completely since I started selling: from positive to very positive.Do not let sell options.There are sure ways to do it.[http://www.vadertader.net] (http://www.vadertrader.net

Thanks for sharing your opinion.Could you detail which operations and your method?I am starting to use Iron Condors and selling verticals in commodities.Greetings.

[AxcesjC]

For this year, I have been selling options on gold, silver, wheat and oil.Oil is excellent because it has high volume, open interest and monthly options.The fillings are almost exact where you love them.Silver, although I did not lose money, can be a somewhat thin market.A tip: consider seasonal market trends.For example, historically the wheat market tends to establish an apartment around July and climb from there.It makes sense to sell puts in August or September and Calls when the maximum season is reached.In oil, during the driving season (April-June

[crustunesCaron26]

With my little experience in options, I discovered that it is not as easy as it seems.Does anyone know a demo platform that does not expire?I am interested in your suggestions on high and low -commodities low points.It makes sense to explore that idea.Do not send me private messages on coding consultations.

[ZEsHAR]

The problem of many is that they want everything easy and fast.If you operate options, it were as simple as buying a Straddle and wait, we would all be millionaires.But the reality is another: you need analysis, strategy and a lot of patience.If you are not willing to study market conditions, understand volatility and manage your risk, better look for something else.This method is not for lazy or those who seek immediate results.

[EsSbss]

I am starting to see the benefits of selling options.It is true that margins and market movements can scare at the beginning, but with discipline it is possible to manage it.For example, I have sold raw puts with less than 40 days of expiration and I have obtained consistent benefits.Of course there is risk, but I prefer this approach to simply expect extreme movements with strategies such as Straddles.

[NresysSi]

I don't understand why so many things complicate.Selling naked options sounds terrifying, but if you do it with common sense, it can be one of the most profitable ways to operate.The key is to use adequate margins and never overexpose.If you need to see each movement of the market with fear, then you are not managing your risk well.This is not a casino.

[ZEsHAR]

If you are looking for emotion, the options are not for you.This is not like buying cryptocurrencies waiting for them to shoot.It is a serious discipline that requires patience and cold head.When someone tells me that the options are boring, I simply smile.Boredom can be good, because it means that you are operating with a solid plan and not making impulsive decisions.

[NjSwzcesna]

I started with the options six months ago and at first it was frustrating.I did not understand how to handle the Greeks or how to calculate my risks correctly.I lost money and almost surrendered.But then I realized that I was too ambitious.I lowered the size of my positions, I learned to sell Spreads and now, although the benefits are not giant, they are constant.That is what matters.

[vucbesxx]

What many do not understand is that operating with options is not only a matter of strategy, but of mentality.If you can't stand losing, you can't be trader.The options are like chess: each movement has consequences, and you need to think several steps forward.Impulses and lack of preparation only lead to disaster.

[ZEsHAR]

I am surprised how many want to skip the foundations.If you don't know what implicit volatility is, Greeks or how time affects an option, you should not be operating with them.The best way to learn is to start at demo, but taking it seriously.Operating in demo does not mean playing;It means trying real strategies without the risk of losing money.

[Nesna01]

One thing I learned quickly is that not all platforms are the same to operate options.Some have ridiculously high commissions or limitations that complicate things.For now, I am using cough for shares and indices options, and OX for futures options.The difference in costs and functionality is significant depending on what you operate.

[nonos3]

I think many underestimate the psychological impact of operating with options.Seeing your margin increase or decrease dramatically can be scary, especially if you are not prepared.The most important thing is to have a clear and sufficient capital plan to support market fluctuations.If you are operating with money that you cannot afford to lose, you are convicted from the beginning.

[ZEsHAR]

People always ask about the best strategy for options, as if there were a magical formula.The truth is that there is no universal response.It all depends on your risk tolerance, your capital and your market understanding.What works for me can be a disaster for you, and vice versa.

[GSarucichy]

I love the irony of how many enter the world of options thinking that it is easy, just to realize how complex they are.There is no space for arrogance here.I have learned more of my mistakes than from any success.If you are willing to fail and learn from it, the options can be very profitable in the long term.

[toSojosi]

My initial experience with Straddles was disastrous.I thought I was covered on both sides, but I did not understand how costs and volatility affected the value of the options.Now I prefer credit spreads because they offer a more controlled risk and less unpleasant surprises.But even with them, the preparation is key.

[ZEsHAR]

If you are here looking for the easiest way, I'm sorry to tell you that you will not find it.The options are a game of probabilities, not for certainties.The only real "shortcut is to invest time in learning.Hurdly and ignorance are the two greatest threats for any options.

[esnutesSaT]

One of the best decisions I made was to focus on just two markets: oil and S&P500.This allowed me to better understand their patterns and volumes.Operating too many assets at the same time can disperse and make you make mistakes.The specialization is underestimated, but it is key to success in any type of trading.

[EsSvesra10C]

Selling naked options may sound scary, but if you do it with clear rules and adequate margins, it is not as dangerous as many think.What matters is to know your limits and always maintain a part of the capital as a reserve to cover possible adverse market movements.

[ZEsHAR]

It is funny how some think they can enter the options without understanding the risks."How bad can it be?"They wonder.Well, very bad.It's not about scaring you, but if you don't know how to handle volatility or margins, you can lose more than you are willing to risk the blink of an eye.

[jardu107]

I like how this thread is generating so many ideas.We all have different approaches, and that is what makes the trading of options interesting.At the end of the day, the important thing is not who is right, but who can maintain consistent and profitable over time.

[GuzCa1722]

The options are not for heart weak.Every time you operate, you face the market, and the market has no mercy.But that's what I like about them.There is no space for excuses or luck.It all depends on your ability and preparation.

[ZEsHAR]

If you are afraid of losing, trading is not for you.Losses are part of the game, and learning to handle them is crucial for success.The key is to manage the risk so that you can survive the bad gusts and make the most of the good.This is not a sprint, it is a marathon.

[axrcNresnky]

I am considering leaving the options because I fail to be consistent.Any advice before throwing in the towel?First, check if you are following a clear plan.Many times, the problem is not the strategy, but the lack of discipline to apply it correctly.

[xxarxxu]

Patience is probably the most important ability to operate options.You will not always see immediate results, but if you trust your analysis, the benefits will arrive.It's like planting a tree.You do not see it grow every day, but if you take care of it, it will eventually bear fruit.

[ZEsHAR]

Some ask if selling naked options is too risky.My answer is: it depends on how you do it.If you are well capitalized, you understand the risks and you have a solid plan, it is one of the most profitable strategies that exist.If not, it is a quick path to bankruptcy.

[gaCwz22]

When I started operating options, I overwhelmed the amount of information available.It was difficult to know where to start.Now I understand that you don't need to know everything to be profitable.You just need to understand your strategy well and apply it consistently.

[gesresigc]

One of the most difficult things about options is to handle your emotions.It is easy to panic when a position moves against you.The solution is to have a clear plan and attach to him.If you know when to enter, exit and accept losses, you will be one step ahead of 90% of traders.

[ZEsHAR]

Did you know that 80% of the options expire without value?That data should be enough to make you consider selling options instead of buying them.Of course, it is not as exciting as betting on a great movement, but it is a much more consistent way to earn money.

[jtto25753720]

I have learned more of my mistakes than from any book or course.Each loss is a valuable lesson if you are willing to learn from it.The problem is that many prefer to blame the market instead of taking responsibility for their decisions.

[Tknuces166]

Operating options may seem complicated at the beginning, but once you understand the basic concepts, it becomes much more manageable.The trick is not to complicate too much.Start with simple strategies and see how you earn experience.

[ZEsHAR]

Some think they need a large account to operate options.Although having more capital helps, it is not essential.What really matters is how you manage that capital.A well -managed small account can grow much faster than a great poorly managed.

[AxstorCund]

The key to being profitable in options is not to predict the market, but in managing your positions intelligently.It is a game of probabilities, and your work as a trader is to stack those probabilities in your favor.

[TesbSoress300]

A common mistake that I see is that many focus too much on the graphics and forget factors such as volatility and time.The options are not only on market management, but about how and when it moves.That is the real difference.

[ZEsHAR]

If you think that operating options is too complicated, maybe not for you.Not everyone is done for this, and there is nothing wrong with that.But if you are willing to learn and strive, rewards can be huge.Of course, don't expect results without hard work.

[esdresyniskeszgz]

My best operations have been those where I have had the patience of waiting for the perfect moment to enter.It is easy to get carried away by emotion and jump early, but the best opportunities always reach patients.

[AxresygwSun]

One thing I have learned is that not all strategies work in all markets.What works on indices will not necessarily work in commodities.The key is to adapt your approach to the market in which you are operating and be willing to change if the conditions change.
