Anyone here who strictly does **option buying only** — no selling, no hedging, just naked directional trades?
I’m trying to understand how different people approach it, especially:
* How do you place your stop-loss? (premium-based / chart-based / %?)
* How fast do you enter and exit trades? (scalping vs holding)
* Do you predefine risk per trade or adjust on the go?
* How do you avoid overtrading or averaging down?
Would love to hear real experiences from people actually doing this consistently.
