I know it's more capital intensive than some other strategies, but it doesn't require a lot of managment. If I get assigned, I sell the other side at the strike I was assigned until I get called away. What's not to like an 85% probablity of success.
I went to cash in my trading accounts on Friday. I'm waiting to reenter. I'm thinking this afternoon or tomorrow.
Now, if you didn't follow what I just said, get some education, start small and practice. If you fly an airplane, you can do this. Everything we do with a commercial airplane is risk management. Successful trading is risk management.
What's the best source to get the education you speak of for the non-savvy investor?
