Remember this is your year to learn Slow Money Option Trading

So how did SLOW MONEY OPTIONS do for the week?  Weekending 1/4/2013  Announced 2 trade recommendations.  On the  AAPL trades I managed to get a 5% on the call spread and a 10% on the put spread.  I for one would rather have consistency than luck and guessing.  Notice where the bollenger bans are early Thursday. Later in the day Thursday was a much better opportunity to sell the Put spread and early Friday.  In face if I had not had my positions on Thursday I would have sold the 520/515 put spreads Friday morning and would have made perfect trades.  I point this out to show you by following the bollenger bands you will lessen the risk on any option trade.  Remember it is not how you start the day or trade but rather how you finish the day or trade.  Do you have these rules memorized yet or at least written down in you Slow Money Options Traders Note Book?

                            MY RULES . . . SLOW MONEY OPTION TRADING:

      #1 If you receive a 50% return the 1st day take profits.

     #2 If your position goes to .01 credit and there is more that 1 day till expiration close position.

     #3 Risk no more that 2 times you collected premium.  If you collect .05 risk to .10

     #4 Trade at top and bottom of Bollinger bands

     #5 Remember time value is on your side.

     #6 Once price is established DO NOT chase.

     #7 Always take the more conservative trade.

     #8 The later in the week you take the trade usually the lest risk.

     #9 More rules to come : >) Keep it simple

     #10 Put your own rules in play.

     #11 Roll as you last option.

Remember always do the more conservative spread is the reason that I give you choices.  What I do is take all my recommendations just split the money between choices. You can trade just enough to give you an extra days results of trading or trade enough to give you a weeks worth of trading.  The choice is yours take responsibility.
