For the mass majority it is not doable. 90% of all options expire worthless. Trading requires REAL TIME quotes and watching every 15 minutes at least. With options watching at least every minute or even tick by tick. What you should do is stick to one volatile, high volume stock like Intel and trade the stock. If you can make money trading the stock you more likely than not should be able to do as well if not better through leverage on the Options. If you can't successfully trade the stock at least you will have lost less money trading the stock, than losing almost if not everything on the options. cl >>> Simply buying Calls and Puts by forecasting the underlying stock. No spreads,straddles,writing,etc. Is it doable?<<<
