Updated Trading Strategy

Here is my updated trading strategy:

• Trade high volume, high price stocks
• Look for the stock to be around the middle of its 52 week trading range
• High IV rank of 30% or better preferably 50% on up
• 90% probability of success and at least 1-2 standard deviations away
• Between 7 and 35 days left till expiration
• Leg into an iron condor with vertical spreads
• Collect at least .70 for each trade 
• Look to close each side at .15 one week later but no longer than 2 weeks later
• When the stock moves big one way look to close the winning side for a profit and re-deploy another iron condor
• Always stay at 90% probability OTM (out of the money) when you place your trade
• Never trade this strategy during earnings – use a different strategy 
• Use Person’s Pivots (PPS) to time entry
   

*Cash management

Leave $2000 available for options trading so you can fix any situations that go against you or jump on opportunities that may arise

OPTION TRADER makes $105MM PROFIT

This lady has uncanny skills in picking option trades.  Her basic approach is not too complex at all.  She started out just shorting stocks as they go up, making money on the corrections.  Seems like a very successful and efficient way of trading, no iron condors, butterfly spreads, etc. just a basic wait and pounce approach.

This approach actually makes a lot of sense.  You can almost always guarantee that any stock will go down at some point in time over a two month period.  There is enough drama happening to make all stocks sink down at some point during any given week.  So by placing a put on a volatile stock when it rockets up you can almost guarantee some sort of profit during a two month window.  All the successful traders I've researched recommend a two month window for options trades.  I tend to agree unless you are strictly trying to gamble as in the case of binary or weekly options.  No one knows what's going to happen in the short term but you can almost guarantee the market will go in either direction in the long term.  She's just playing the downside.
