Gz, I know only the absolute basics. I think I'm more interested in your opinion of RISKS and the mental aspects. I have no desire to go "head to head" with experts that want to fleece me. I check the market daily/hourly, but don't sit in front of an active trading screen for 8 hours, nor do I want to. My fear of losing money is greater than my fear of not making it. I don't even like holding AGQ or other 3X ETF's overnight anymore . I'm happier with smaller gains, than higher risks and big gains. SO..........options may not be for me, mentally, and that is my major concern. p.s. I respect all opinions here, so anyone please feel free to jump in to slap me around a litttle with reality.
