41 - learning to trade options on the stock market.


"learning to trade" says almost nothing, as there are many different strategies that you could be learning. So what did you learn exactly? :-)


I'm not employing a specific strategy. A better wording would be discovering covered calls. I already own the shares so the downside risk is inherent. Betting against upside is great in these volatile markets, and given enough capital for the stock, I can buy 100 more if I get close to break-even price on the upside. For the last two weeks I sold calls for TQQQ.


Can anyone recommend a path to learning about investing?


The book, "The Intelligent Investor". Highly recommended by Warren Buffet and me.


What is your goal? /r/personalfinance on reddit is really informative.


Buy after a crash when market low. Sell before crash when market high. Rinse and repeat.

Look into the wheel strategy.
