    this is solid... It's happens! Person does well in one market and then, "Hey, I must be a genius. So, I can do well in another.. "

  5. Hey Zzzz1, Just stop and think about it. Most OTM options do expire worthless, that is a fact. An option seller just sells to the lottery ticket buyers who buy OTM options. As far as the hedge funds, etc --- well, they are much too large to venture into such a small market.

  6. Sorry good professional gambler : didn't read your thread till now, as I assumed it would be a poser or a hopeful full of greed.

    First, you are feeling the burning passion of trading ( :D) : well you are going to be amply served.
    Second, you want to be consumed while learning trading : trading is really the place to be.

    In my views : start by doing the round of different prop shops, and be on some trading floors.
    And opening a trading journal is very helpful, as some traders might pick your main mistakes and suggest to you how to correct these. You could actually start one with a demo account. The key is to update your journal regularly, so that when you re-read it, you can find your strengths and weaknesses.

    Welcome to the trading world. :D :D :D
    If you can win well at baccarat, actually trading has some similarities with a closed systems
    like forex. Once you are done with stocks, try to move to forex.

  7. Thanks dude this is great I will def look into it. How much is a good living? I'm stuck with having moderate expenses for 2 years so I might have to supplement my learning with like 10 bj trips a year . Hopefully I can log 50 hours on those trips so I can get to the long run to realize a profit. I'd be good with 250k a year

    Disagree on most counts. But maybe that is something you need to figure out yourself.
