Today at last minute I closed my trade CS at 27200 @ 1.3 credit pts.
Total Profit from this week's Credit Spread Strategy = 13.3pts [(10.60-2.95)+(6.95-1.3)]
This strategy is working good for me.
Friends... please do paper trade for a few months on both the strategies to have a feel how these are being done. Do your own research and modify these as per your own psychology and risk appetite. Once you are ready to go, start with 1lot or 1pair only. Unless we start putting our own money, CONFIDENCE will not build up. No matter how much we study or research.
If there are any aggressive traders / traders with higher risk appetite, I will discuss another non-directional weekly option strategy. Please let me know if any one is interested.
This one I use as a mix with my CS strategy when my gut feeling says I can get away with it without much harm. I am a super conservative trader.
My only intention of starting this thread is to share my 8-years long experience trading options with fellow traders, which at least save them from unknown harm. But, the caution is if one thinks that he/she can just copy the strategy/trades and get away, I am sorry. It is not so easy.
Please learn option trading... which will save much of the 'heartburn' available for free with stocks/future trading. This will help anyone with knowledge and patience to earn minimum 2% a month on the capital invested.
Once you become more experienced and confident the yearly return will hit a minimum of 30-35%.
Thank you.
