Dear Seniors--What is your Gain% per Month, Experience?

#1
Dear Seniors…greetings to you.

The main reason for starting this thread is to control my Greed and learn the facts.

I am interested in option trading, any day when I see a stock moving up or down, I see its options like below example AXISBANK on 20-Jan-2012, Call 1000 total gain from its previous close was 191%

Expiry Date:25-Jan-12 Option Type:CE Strike Price:1000 Prev Close:7.55 Last Price:22

whenever I see such huge move, I think I can get atleast 5% gain per month with Trading, but I know its not easy. It needs Experience, Discipline,....

I request you to share your valuable Experience. It will be a great help for me, if you could share the following.

% of Gain per month (avg.):
Exp. in trading (Years) :
Trades in Equities/Options/Futures:
Trades Day/Swing/position:
Indicators/charts (what are they?):


Thank you all :)

About Me: I quit my IT Job in 2010 for trading with Capital 2L with no trading experience, lost 2L in one and half month or I say, I paid 2L to stock market as fees to learn valuable lessons. I failed because of in-exp, greed, depending on tips, not exiting at Stop Loss, averaging the same call when it was coming down. Since then to till date I have not traded even once, but I watch stock market daily. later on came to know about types of charts,Indicators,TA and trying to learn them when ever I get time.
Now I am in IT Job and wanted to trade while doing Job with Rs.10K/- (10K will be my capital till I feel confident about me), this time I want to learn, will try to overcome my mistakes done in May 2010, even if I loose my 10k- I am not going to leave Trading- I will be in Market

Thank you for your replies
Sorry to hear about your losses..they are rather large.

Some of the successful traders have posted similar info previously in various threads/times. They may or may not get to see your query. It is better if you go through their posts and search for the info you need. I read many posts related to % they are making, but sorry haven't saved the links.

Please keep us updated on the kind of efforts you are making/made.

Hi Nayarock , when I read your about me , I felt as if I am reading mine.
And I am sure there will be a lot many others.
You are really strong having admitted it so openly , and good to read your last sentence , to be in such positive mood.
I am in IT as well , didnt leave job as my wife traded for me , I also started with options , some initial gains , then greed , then lost 10k , and back to basics now.
Btw , I was reading this book called 'come into my trading room' , which is awsome , and also following Sh-315 strategy.
Good luck :)
