Today, WMT is up more so I thought I'd check just to see what could have been (probably a bad idea). My WMT options would be worth $1260 today.
Did you buy with a short time to expiration?

I'm always slightly impressed with people that can effectively do options trading. I suck at it. I do have WMT stock though and it's done quite well.

Your 62% profit is nothing to sneeze at. Well done.

Work your system. DO NOT see what would have happened if you operated outside of your system. That leads to undisciplined trading.

At 62%, do your thing man.

I'm very new at it, so it remains to be seen if I can do it effectively. So far, I'm only doing it with companies I trust (AMD, AAPL, MSFT, WMT, etc), and I'm doing calls about 3 weeks out. I buy dips, figuring that a company like Microsoft will go up sometime in the next 3 weeks, even if it isn't immediately.

So far, I've been at it for about a month and I've made about $900, while only investing about $1,000 at a time. If it does turn out to be an effective strategy, I'll start using more of my money for it.

I'm still figuring out my system, so I figure more info doesn't hurt. However, if the exact same thing happened again I would still sell at 62%.

90% of pure options TRADERS lose money.

Most professional options traders are using them as hedges for their portfolio or an individual stock

That's why I just stick with buying and selling the stock. I only lose 70-80% of the time.

Do you do covered calls? You can get blindsided in a hurry unless you're constantly watching your trades.

Not fully covered, I don’t own 100 shares of each, but I do own some. However, I am constantly watching.

So , is this a good strategy???

Find mutual funds that have a really good return over the last 1 year/ 3 year period.

Pull up their portfolio and look at their top holdings

Invest in their top three since they are driving the return they're getting.

For example : ARKW which is actually an ETF is 62% 1 year and 41% 3 years

Their top 3 holdings are TSLA, SQ, ROKU

All have blown away the market over the last year.

Thoughts?
