  1. If you want to be an option writer, understand the greeks and their risks. And be happy with 20% instead of 100+% per year...

    You should not attempt to trade options - you're close to 100% guaranteed to either lose money outright, or at a minimum underperform passive buy and hold. Even swing trading stocks (long side only) has better odds of success, at least there you'd have the wind in your sails.

    My advice is to find another hobby.

    Do you mind share the statistics that supports your statement?

    I always thought the statistics for options are better than day trading. I am just curious.

    Thanks.
