    The market's direction can swiftly change, with indexes frequently transitioning from a bear market to a bull market precisely when the news is most negative and investor sentiment reaches its lowest point.

      For the average person, the strategies are fairly demanding. In actuality, most professionals who have the necessary abilities and knowledge to complete such occupations do so successfully.

      That's awesome! Diversifying your 350K portfolio with the help of an investment coach has really paid off. Making over $730k in net profit from high dividend yield stocks, ETFs, and bonds is quite impressive. Your investment strategy seems to be working wonders for you!

      I agree, I've been in touch with an Investment advisor for approximately 17 months. These days, it's really easy to buy into trending stocks, but the task is determining when to sell or hold. That's where my advisor comes in, to help me with entry and exit points , I've accrued over $337k from an initially stagnant reserve of $148K all within 18 months...

      As a newbie about to invest, you must have these three things in mind
      1. Have a long term mindset.
      2. Be willing to take risk.
      3. Be careful on money usage, if you're not spending to earn back, then stop spending.
      4. Never claim to know - Ask questions and it's best you work with a financial advisor.

    This is quite educational. It's crucial for newcomers to keep in mind that the financial markets are highly irrational in the short run. You should constantly be ready for the unexpected. That is how chance operates. Because of the inherent risks in the market, I always favor long-term investments.

    Great video! Two things I learned the hard way. The smaller the account size your start trading with the better, and the slower you ramp up your account and share sizes the better as well. It's urgently important to make sure you're emotionally prepared to manage the risk/reward of the dollar amounts you're working with. Flipping one or two option contractas is a completely differant roller coaster ride than flipping 15 or 20 contracts. Keep the adrenalin out of your trading and watch how dramaticly your win rate improves.

    I wouldn’t recommend any of these strategies on a small account other then a debit spread. If your account is that small, you are probably new and going to make many mistakes. The Iron condor as described will put you in only 1 trade that can go horribly wrong. You want to spread your options across different symbols for a better chance. A leap would tie up your account so you wouldn’t be an active trader. I would recommend a Christmas tree butterfly. Very small capital requirement but also a small return. Don’t focus on return starting out, just get use to the process. You will be paying like $12 for a potential profit of like $88. The max you will lose is $12. That’s not going to break you. You live to trade another day and you can put on multiple across different symbols. What you would be doing is selling 3 calls at the current price, buying 2 calls 1 strike above, then buying 1 call 2 strikes below. This is a neutral strategy like the iron condor. You want to pick things moving sideways and right now… a lot of stocks are doing that.

      I have a similar problem.
      In my paper account I can make $2.5k to $3.5k easily every day without fail trading 10 spreads at a time.
      With real money it's been bad.
      The best thing you can do is start small trading 1 spread option contract at a time. Then once you feel comfortable making or losing money with that move on to 2 and so forth.
      Unless you're a sociopath it will take time to harden your emotions when it comes to trading.
      Focus on analyzing why trades lost or won by keeping a journal. Did you get out too early? Why? Did you stay in a bad trade? Why?

    A big advantage of trading with a small account is I do not know how many traders I have chatted with who started with significant amounts of money and lost it all. Even if you can afford more, by starting small, you learn by trading with real money, which, believe me, is different to paper trading, but risks little. By building up a small account, you learn valuable lessons for when your account is larger.

    I'm shocked to hear this from one of my favorite "teachers"! As a long time option trader, I can not understand, how a professional trader can recommend to risk more than 50% of the account in one trade. That is the 100% way to break your account! No one word about probabilities or risk management. If you have a small account and you are just learning, never risk more than 2% of your account on one trade and 10% on all open trades.

So that strategy likely cannot be implemented

    Do you arbitrarily implement any of these strategies? All these videos explain the different strategies but not WHEN to use them. With the iron condor, I don't want the price to move too much, so what am I looking for to use that particular strategy? Same with all the other strats. No one tells you WHEN to use them

    I know people can continue to trade option until 4:15pm EST. What if the option turns to ITM between 4pm to 4:15pm? Will they still expire worthless? Thanks.

      At least one brokerage (TDA) will let you close out an option position under $0.05 for no commission precisely to avoid this problem of getting assigned on the Friday expiration after the market closes. If you're anywhere near being ITM at close there is no reason not to close the position.

    Plotting these techniques over the previous ten years is something I would like to see. Are they all about the same, or did they all perform well? I've been struggling to manage my allotment. Now that I'm fifty years old, I've begun to switch from riskier to safer investments. Bonds to individual stock ratio is lower.

      Investors should be cautious when deciding which new investments to make and when limiting their exposure, especially during inflationary times. To manage this recession and perhaps obtain high yields, it is advisable to get advice from a professional or trusted advisor.

      Yes, for the past eight months or more, I have been in daily communication with a financial analyst. These days, it's really simple to invest in trending stocks; the difficult part is deciding when to sell or hold onto them. My manager can assist me with entry and exit points in the sectors I work in in this situation. I can't say I regret it because, with my $160,000 starting capital, I'm 40% ahead in profits in just five months.

    The strategies are great. However, most brokerage firms don’t allow iron condors on 1k accounts.
