Cit.: "in the bull market of 2014, the average return from the top five funds in the small-cap segment was 85% higher than that from large-cap funds. Similarly, in 2017, their returns were 45% higher than the large-cap segment. The outperformance of the mid-cap segment over large-caps in 2014 was 56% while it was a more moderate 10% in 2017" I think this is true regarding SMB and individuals who have relatively small trading accounts. Of course, they are always under a risk of loose everything because of risky strategies they trade. But this is as true as 2x2=4, that beginners will trade aggressive strategies until they earn enough money to be satisfied of 7% ann. return.

D Shchurov, I don't think, at least for as portion of your portfolio, that you should ever be satisfied with a 7% annual return. But that's just me....

I aim for around 2/4% a month from selling options or 24/48% a year. Beside this i also have growth and dividend stocks for the long term and swing trading some of them, for example if a stock hit RSI of 80 like MO did i sold out. Now waiting for a pullback to sell a PUTS on MO, if not then fine. Never force someting.

4% a month translates into 60% yearly compounded (with reinvesting). In other words a $10.000 investment would make you more than a million dollars in 10 years. Highly unrealistic, unless you have a holly grail.

@@senadt2495 Yes i agree with that, it's a unrealistic goal. Perhaps i should aim for a 1/2% instead. Right now i am doing 2.3% on average.

It actually depends on your trading frequency, not on a time frame. It is not the same if you make a single trade or 200 trades a month for the same return. The return should be measured per say 100 trades in order to get more proper picture. Then one can evaluate time averages IMO. So there is no need to aim at anything daily, monthly... as long as one is positive in the long run with statistically significant amount of trades, that should be proper measure and something to rely on.

This is great info. I would like the equity side of SMB to have the same discussion. I think some people hear about green and black shirt traders, then think they can do something similar with their 25k pdt account.

Maybe I'm an outlier or maybe this week was. I got about 2k out of a 4k account this week daytrading options. I missed another 3k due to timing. I'll know in a month if I can keep it up. I have to pass up a lot of potential opportunities due to wide spreads and/or low volume. The plan is to draw my account down to 4k each week and repeat. This is definitely not a passive strategy. My fastest trade trade this week made $400 in four minutes trading 2 contracts (SHOP Aug 09 $345 P on 8/1 at 9:40am in for 11, exit at 13).

How is this possible? If you are day trading options in a 4K account, after 3 round trips....that's it due to the PDT rule.....unless I'm missing something.

I mean options give you massive leverage so it's not really 5k he's working with. If he drops that on $100 options he's working with 2 million dollars so this doesn't make sense, what am I missing? If S&P moves 7% for the year that's 140k on those options so why are you comparing it straight to the S&P as if you don't get leverage with options??

Frankincensed then trade with more money. Or, if you don’t have enough, then just reinvest the gains on that 5000. At about 2 percent a month, you can get about 30 percent a year. That 5k turns into 1 million in 20 years at that rate

I must not be understanding the proper definition of options income trading. I am going to have to disagree with this gentleman and agree with Foley and many other Option snipers, who exist and are thousandaires and millionaires. My knowledge of chart analysis, my chart set up, and ability to scalp, day trade long, and swing monthly contracts short term with practicallly a 100 win rate and timing will create millions in my lifetime alone. I am very interested in getting sponsored to fast track my results as I have spent months obsessing and learning from the greatest to be able to be this talented with trading options with superb discipline, consistency, and profitably. I will give your ageny a call, or shoot you a email sometime soon to ask about possible capital to be sponsored with.
