I started to learn options in summer time year 2019. I didnt had a good strategy that time. Was planning off trades from 5 min time frame. Didnt know anything about GREEKS, expirations, what strike to take, where and how to place stops. What broker to use for options. It took me nearly 1 year of hard work to find success in options. My strategy is quite simple now, the simplier, the better. In start of 2019 I was trading small caps and slowly started to wet my feet in options. I decided to switch because small caps isnt...

My trading setup has changed from time to time, but now I find this setup perfect for me. Maybe just could get larger 4k monitor for executions. For now I am using 28″ Samsung 4k monitor for executions, turned vertical for better viewing, mainly for small caps. Then I got another 32″ HP monitor, what I intend to use for options trading, its 2k and does it’s job. And one LG 34″ screen what I use for chatroom, news, scanners and some gaming. As trading platform I am using TradeZero Zero Pro. And for charts – TC2000 Left side...
