In conclusion of this thread , the consequences are 1)Options traders and writers would rather trade my holy grail , they would earn 100% a year , compounded every year , using my very low risk of < 0.7 5 and reward of 2 % . 2) Options market would become illiquid due to lack of option liquidity and sellers 3)options formula may become obselete , it destroys the zero sum formula. This would be self sabotage , it would not be in my own interests. Trading these instruments gives weekly potential premium of 2 % and weekly volatility of 4% , so there is money to be made.

Frstly you are one few posters I believe in and trust. The back tests were extremely consevative (conservative by 30 % approximately) , they were slightly curve -fitted to estimate option premiums/volatility changes.I found the actual premiums are more favourable than the back tests . Trades are managed manually by dedicated staff , sitting and waiting patiently for 5 to 6 trades a week .We are executing /managing multiple - related options /futures. I did some specific back tests on option strategies , the actual results are 20 % better .We are still in early days of live trading , it is going according to plan . I will let you know ater 4 weeks.I have been through very many holy grails like trend trading , price action , option trading , 100 eas mt4 automated trading etc only to find out things do not work , in real time , as backtested and imagined.
Thanks for the trust. In digital age, even holy grail appears to be email transferable. Also it would be crucial to have instructions for setting up the vessel with miraculous powers providing happiness, eternal youth or food in infinite abundance.
