very fair question. and if my answer keeps one person from losing everything, then it was worth answering.
i am negative/in the hole/ bleeding over the last year. i dug myself a HUUUUUUUUUGE hole when i lost my mind and went put crazy in october. options losses were massive. i gained about half back in nov/dec timeframe with an almost 6 fold increase in the account, then lose 80% of that as i was early on the "jan" rally that turned out to be a feb rally.
my trading has been very light as i have been focusing on my long term strategy of the fund trading. options have taken a back seat except when i see compelling situations. this weeks gains are great, but i would still have to double the account two more times to get back to even. with pre october.
i fully intend to do it, but rather than try to force it in 2 months i dont care if it takes all year or more.
options kill. i am not a member of "options AAA" but i should be (ggg).
