yeah
people have been doing those challenges forever...heres mine btw. Started 1k new year. Hoping to hit 12k by end of month
>>61677351Leveraged ETFs? Pill me
>>616773594-9 week out options (roll over 4 weeks out), 30% max allocation to any one trade/position. Max 3 tranche adds, forced partial profit taking after +125%from there you have to actually be a good trader
>>61677397I need to study up on Greek shit. I think you’ve motivated me to finally take the options pill. What resource helped you most in your pursuit of knowledge?
>>61677424Best advice is to make a separate brokerage account with a long cash deposit time (schwab, no instant deposit like RH) and put 1k in there and pretend its 100k. I just treat it like a regular stock book, but with more leverage. The exception is with stocks with very high beta, as I rather not pay that IV premium and would rather just buy stock insteadDo not trade options in your main account if you have never traded them. Do not do it, make a separate account and don't mix the funds. If you want to put $500 fun money in your options portfolio once a month, go ahead, but you will almost always lose when you startI also use unusual whales to track individual stock gamma/flows
>>61677531>>61677531Appreciate the nugget of knowledge anon. Not quite sure what you meant by “long cash”, but what’s the problem with the instant deposit on RH out of curiosity?

Delivering food for pennies and losing it all on options.
