Saying in Advance may be looks I am bragging, but sadly I am not.
I am not care about the criticism. Because that's not helping me now.
Options buying for Intraday is the toughest instrument, right?
In the start i was doing only futures and i was very successful and one day in late 2008 i started to doing options. All hell broke. From that day onwards I am playing mainly options, options and options.
So what's the status now? The above mentioned post is the result now.
I think I saw all and I did all kind of tradings in options except the millisecond trades by HFT'S.
Some how i am thrived in between this nonsense. But this is the only experience I am having now. I m still here.
Now I don't know exactly what should I have to do further with all this kind of experience. I asked and looking for a Funded Account to do futures and options writing, but I can't get it because in India it is not legal yet. So I asked a job in prop firms and the main concern and drawback is my expressing skill is not upto the mark and my English is very ordinary or below than the standards. But always i thought purpose of a language is to communicate ( not mother tongue) and I hope i am doing it with English.
Ok what I know from my experience
1.market survival
2. drawdown management
3. adapting under stress
4. understanding how options destroy capital.
I traded futures successfully, shifted to options buying, suffered severe drawdowns, survived multiple cycles, and now trade with strict risk control. I understand where retail traders fail because I failed there myself.
