#1

There are options strategies that offer very high rewards, but also high risk. Most investors who use options do so in ways that break every rule of intelligent investing.

#2

Berkshire Hathaway wrote contracts worth $37. 1 billion across four major indexes: the SP 500 in the US, the FTSE 100 in the UK, the Euro Stoxx 50 in Europe, and the Nikkei 225 in Japan. They received premiums of $4. 9 billion, which they invested.

#3

You do not need to worry about generating a satisfactory return on billions of dollars of assets. You also don’t have to worry about counterparty risk, and your smaller bet size will find many takers in the market.

#4

The iron condor is a non-directional strategy that can earn you between two to four percent monthly returns provided you find suitable candidates. Many investors view options as being too risky, but this is an incorrect view to have.

#5

The iron condor is a low-risk, low-return strategy. It is highly repeatable and scalable, and it doesn’t place any additional burden on your time. It can be used to generate a few thousand dollars per month in additional income and used to invest in other companies to generate more capital gains for yourself.

#6

The first building block of successful options trading is understanding the basics of options. You don’t need to understand the Greek values in detail, but a basic understanding is helpful.

#7

Trading should be treated as a business. Your primary objective is to make a profit, and your emotions about certain assets are beside the point. You should protect your capital at all costs.

#8

A trading plan is like a business plan, and it should define everything you do with your business. It should not be based on the promise of making huge profits, but on sound business practices.

#9

The markets are dynamic, and they constantly change. It is best to simply watch the flow of prices, and adjust your strategies accordingly. Most traders spend so much time and energy developing a strategy that they are relieved when they finally land on one that seemingly works. But not before they’ve lost most of their capital.

#10

The typical trader approaches their trading day in a manner that is completely undisciplined. They roll out of bed and place a trade, and then spend the morning checking prices and emotional reactions. They go to work, check prices, and place some more trades.
