jan has a narrow trading range in my opinion, not every day, i missed out on days that have wider trading ranges. I so miss last year.
A non-leveraged long position can't lose more than 100%, so it's inherently less risky than a leveraged bet. Long 50% at VIX 80 is less risky than long 200% at VIX 20. There are liquidity constraints. Volatile environments have more reward per unit risk, and unique opportunities that aren't available in low volatility environments. Increasing size does not increase risk/reward ratios. And it is risk/reward ratios that determine returns for a given risk tolerance. Given that all strategies have an upper maximum return, due to risk of ruin, someone trading optimally cannot increase returns by increasing leverage.
