To switch to a slightly religious perspective now... The Devil's greatest game was deception and trickery, That's ever more so true for the markets, gurus, and trading and forums, collectively as a whole, I like the one line of religious scripture quoted in this Lehman Brothers movie, The mishaps of the finance world could all have been avoided if we would all follow the lessons from the bible, It's a good moral and ethical code for every human being to adhere to, Good and evil, night and day, positive and negative, happy and sad...all important things that can be applied to the market's forces in play, I digress, Mazal tov...and May the Farce be with you, ET extraterrestrials and elite testicles
Unfortunately the winning traders normally won't disclose their winning ideas, especially in a public forum, that is why us students have to read carefully between the lines, or to develop our own from basic general trading principles the winners are willing to share. As for your second point, if we cannot figure that out, we deserve to lose. But very good general comments sir.
so how did you learn the process of trading options just watching the screen and reading nothing? Videos? You haven’t read a single trading book?
I learned trading, and options, by just staring at mesmerizing videos with sound, -- that's the really vague, gist of it, , A clear. calm. open. neutral. ...mind....is a powerful thing; Most (trading) books are poison, if you ask me -- they are written by authors who can't trade an orange. Jackoff Guru's on Youtube just want to sell you something. Website Guru's have gamed their results, because they also want to sell you something. ET, extraterrestrial traders, on online forums...are all basically failures. You basically have to embark on this journey alone...kind of like Moses wandering the desert and seeing signs along the way,
Very convincing! Of course you read books or websites on options. Of course you. You sure did do it! Everyone knows you did. There is no doubt you did!
I'm still unsure whether Animal Al's Books are worth the investment time wise. Seems to be polar opposite views on him. I found his writings totally captivating, like a Novel you couldn't put down. But so many people say he fails to prove his profitability.
Another author to consider for learning price action is Bob Volman. And, you could look at https://financialanalystinsider.com/comparing-the-best-price-action-trading-books/ Comparing the Best Price Action Trading Books
