I am in that mailing list. No way those trades made such a gain. I joined in the last 5 trades and I was monitoring the trades. You made a profitable trades to get even. Please show how you did with starting 2K and how many options your traded easch time. I don't want to know because I am confident that your claim is pure lie but I want the other people know too. I knew this thread is a kind of advertisement for papertick. All things said, the trades were OK. Nothing exceptional at all. By the way how do you trade? You don't mention the number of contracts in each trade. Do you put all your money in one trade? There were no times that you had two positions.
A few points: You said "one of your accounts". How are you doing in your other accounts? Are they up at least 5%? How much was the original money in your option account? Wasit 2K? In that case, you did OK and nothing exceptional. If it was 20K and higher, you did good. If it was over 100K, you did great. Congratulations anyway.
Thanks. Most of them are at least 5%, yes. They are not stocks/options only but also commodities/futures, and I just started with pairs. About six years ago I began with abt $80k in options so my yearly average is 50% down from there.
About 23%, made good money on china stocks and writing otm calls/puts. but gave some back on buying naked ditm calls on mer/leh/bac before subprime exploded. O well, win some lose some and learned a few valuable lessons.
Down about 10%. Been trading about 1.5 yrs and have been trying to learn without blowing out. So far I've accomplished that, but still have work to be done.
