Risky vs Conservative Option Traders
There are a few different types of option traders. Some option traders are very aggressive, and they can really be called day traders. This type of trader uses a lot of money, and they are in and out of trades all day long. Option traders that trade this way do not usually hold a position overnight. It’s a very stressful way to trade and requires constant attention. I once had a conversation with a day trader who was working about 60 to 80 hours per week in order to successfully trade options this way. But I wonder how successful he really was. Because if he was making so much money, then why did he call me to learn a new way to trade options?
