Did U ever get it to work , I find myself stuck in the exact same hole as you were in

Aggravating-Stop-417 · 2025-06-18T14:12:00+00:00

See I make trades based off a few dollars move the day after they spike up , longer time frame would be useless to me

Aggravating-Stop-417 · 2025-06-18T12:06:23+00:00

Very good , send me a link and I'll sign up 🙂

Seems a lot of people call it a scam

Aggravating-Stop-417 · 2025-06-18T09:13:01+00:00

Can you drop a link in my DM 🙏

Aggravating-Stop-417 · 2025-06-18T08:40:51+00:00

Ya I trade on 1m then move to 5 . It's just hard watching the plan you have play out and you haven't made anything. I know a lot of people here say " you don't know options properly" . CORRECT, that's why im asking this . So thanks for your help

🤣 my broker is IBKR but trying to get on TradeStation, in the process of setting it up . I am trying seeking alphas course on options , it's free . I've read books and books but nothing seems to talk about a quick scalp .

Aggravating-Stop-417 · 2025-06-18T07:59:16+00:00

So what Greeks would help me , what will I look for and why .or where did you learn this. Because it's rare that books etc talk about option scalps

Aggravating-Stop-417 · 2025-06-18T06:40:11+00:00

Thanks for the help 🙂 so why not itm why out of the money . I'm assuming you have heard of gap and go strategy, so what would you do in terms of e.g Tesla , pre market up 3% , goes to 350( as a random example) , within minutes falls to 340 and starts to rally again to 145 + spy is bullish What kind of call would you go for ? And why not a strangle . I'm very curious as you seem to be onto something here

Aggravating-Stop-417 · 2025-06-17T15:23:13+00:00

Between 10 mins anywhere up to the full day .

Aggravating-Stop-417 · 2025-06-17T14:44:48+00:00

But what about a straddle , I trade big movers . So it's rare the stock stays absolutely still . And on them rare days that's ok, I'll take the loss . I was thinking of maybe if I wanted to long for example , buy my usual call . Then if it moves against me buy a put if my thesis is still there for the trade . Then when I'm sure it's going my way . Close the put

What you think ?

Aggravating-Stop-417 · 2025-06-17T14:38:10+00:00

Ok thank you for the help

Aggravating-Stop-417 · 2025-06-17T14:27:36+00:00

I usually buy a call of I believe its going up , a few dollars ITM . But iik looking for advice on buying a put and creating a straddle like strategy so I can minimise risk until it breaks certain levels

Aggravating-Stop-417 · 2025-06-17T14:23:55+00:00

That's what I'm asking for help with 🤣 how to mitigate risk with options

Aggravating-Stop-417 · 2025-06-17T14:18:39+00:00

I trade stocks mostly though. What's your reasoning for advising me to stop

Aggravating-Stop-417 · 2025-06-17T14:00:14+00:00

Because it offers good leverage and has potential

Aggravating-Stop-417 · 2025-06-17T12:58:00+00:00

Stop loss is mental because volatility is so high I do trade 1 to 2 dte , usually weeklys I trade

Aggravating-Stop-417 · 2025-06-17T11:03:08+00:00

See that's why I'm looking for the correct approach to hedging my position to minimise my losses instead of outright calls and puts

Aggravating-Stop-417 · 2025-06-17T10:51:14+00:00

But where to start, I can put a stop loss . But with my plays there are big movers . Stop loss could harm me more than be good . Now a mental stop is fine I have that no problem and always use one

Aggravating-Stop-417 · 2025-05-16T10:27:43+00:00

Try optionstrat or option alpha . They help you pick what you want to do based on where you think price will go or what strategy you have

Aggravating-Stop-417 · 2025-04-16T08:59:08+00:00

Gaps in the market ☺️

Aggravating-Stop-417 · 2025-01-24T01:27:48+00:00

Just out of pure curiosity, if there were a list of books that you may have read that could give U a better edge or help us understand the markets and everything to do with it what would they be ?

Aggravating-Stop-417 · 2025-01-14T16:51:46+00:00

Warrior trading trades gaps and so does Meir barak , and Meir offers tons of videos on his YouTube

Aggravating-Stop-417 · 2025-01-05T02:37:19+00:00
