Creativity Sparks Ingenuity
I’ve experienced a bit of this in recent weeks with my index options trading. I’ve been banging my head against the wall trying to make money via short premium and theta decay strategies for quite some time.
I made a complete 180-degree turn last month and became a net buyer of options with a focus on being long gamma.
So far, the results have been incredibly encouraging. Was the timing of my shift fortuitous? Were market conditions simply extra accommodating to the idea? Possibly. But expressing and harnessing my creativity – and having the courage to try out new ideas – is still yielding great results.
What are some ideas you’ve been thinking about?
Maybe it’s time to give them a try.
