  2. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, your last comment humbled me. 14 years, thats amazing. I'm just curious, was it 14 years trading the same strategy and volume? Or was it trying different methods/strategies each year to find what niche fits your personality the best?

    I'm curious because not many people have 14 years of risk capital, so traders will either paper trade/simulate methods first before risking $$.

    Also, you said you made 11% in 2008, was that because you changed your overally strategy? OR because you took advantage of what the market crash presented?

    Cheers

    Yes, culture clashes exist when immigrant and indigenous cultures meet. However, your Judeo-Christian value system is chockfull of racists, scammers, degenerates, sexual deviants, and any other contemptible being I can think of.

    In my opinion, the evangelical right has a lot to be desired when it comes to morals and ethics.

    Judeo-Christian values? Ha! I have seen atheists who have a stronger sense of ethics and moral than a Judeo-Christian.

    Did you forget Karen (the Supertrader) Bruton? Barred by the CFTC and SEC from the investment industry for her (and Hope Advisors) misuse of, among other things, options.

    Drastic difference, and wouldn't categorize Karen with these schmucks. These guys are professional get-rich-quick scammers. Karen is more methodical, shes in the hedge fund realm, not producing youtube ads on a private jet flashing money looking for 20 year olds to subscribe to their discord.

    There's plenty on YouTube with Karen touting her skills and successes as a "Supetrader." For example:
    -and-
    and on and on.

    Not sure about the jet.

    Doesn't much matter because in 2019 the SEC barred Bruton for life from associating with any broker, dealer, investment adviser, municipal securities dealer, municipal advisor, transfer agent, or nationally recognized statistical rating organization. And she and Hope Advisors were permanently enjoined “from engaging in or continuing any conduct or practice in connection with . . . the purchase or sale of any security” as well as activity in connection with “an investment adviser.” In other words she's out of the securities business.

    I put her on he same list as Madoff, Corzine and the others in this discussion.

    My thoughts have always been if your a successful trader why bother the time and energy that goes into selling a system. I guess it's extra revenue maybe a genuine love for teaching perhaps. I don't think the world is full of complete charlatans. Some good eggs somewhere in that basket - Alan Eldman Kurt from Option Alphas. That being said i've enjoyed learning over the years from the free content on tastytrade and some on Anton Kreil's videos. I'm perpetually peppered with emails from SJ options. Anyone have any info on them?

    I recommend you go to their website http://sjoptions.com/ and read, carefully, all their hype and hyperbole and then consider the $4,999.00 fee they're charging to teach you about the "higher order" greeks including Vomma, Vanna, Veta, Charm, Lambda, Gamma, Ultima.

    And then ask yourself whether you really want to learn about those higher order greeks or put your 5 grand into your options trading account and continue to use the free training offered by the likes of tastttrade or thinkorswim or CBOE or CME or OCC, etc.

  10. How about picking a book and reading about how options work? There are good ones for pretty much every level.


    I am in a wrong fucking business!
