I don't think so.
This stuff is too cap intensive to be profitable.
Buyers are suckers. Normally pay too much premiums.
To be able to trade options, need ability to write(sell) as well.
and that is too human resource & cap intensive, unless corp. there 's no point going there. Moreover requires agility in creating all sorts of butterflies, with interlocking straddles and strangles.
The peeps have problem with bi-decision trading, options requires engineered synthetics. Beyond the scope of non corp dealers.

cap = capital?
corp = corporate?
so, in general, your advice is stay away from options?

Thanks Sir!

Options is like insurance.
have actuarial and fair value.
And "fair" is a volatile monster.
Without access to large capital, engineering strategies is an illusion.

the peeps that trades it, cannot even agree on the right pricing models.
With access to large cap, it really doesn't matter,which, really.
They are all incomplete anyway.

Mostly giant corps, they pay the premium , to defrayand hedge the risk of "cost variance" , the dreamers ends up managing that risk, realtime.
Trading in realtime, instead is doing exactly that same thing, only without a guillotine hanging overhead.

i think it's fair to say that even those with cap (the corp's) still lose a lot of times (o. barriers getting crushed/broken)?

i tried to do a search about "engineered synthetics" & i came up with
this
& then this
looks like it (synthetics) is taking a combination of options positions... & indeed needs agility

Chief,

Then isnt that a problem that if two things calculated differently for same thing is an innate arbitrage on this...

why i say this.. couple of weeks back when the UJ shot down to 87.xx (for some reason for news) something i was looking at the Call options 100 FXY for Jan 2012 ...it went cheaper like 20%...i am not saying i am predicting....but now it is back like 30% up.... again this is happening many times i see back...e.g.g NFO report mostly for Jan 2011 options

My simple question is

"How can you PREDICT HUMAN MADNESS by using Mathematical equations"

or as per Newton

"I can calculate the motions of heavenly bodies, but not the madness of people."

to a writer time is money. To buyers time is depreciating asset.
As the vectors of risk in options are multi dimensional. The knife is invisible.
This only for corp and financial "specialist", who normally risk OPM( other people's money).

Chief,

Then isnt that a problem...
if you have a pot big enough .
You can throw all the risk in and it even itself out. In the process time becomes an asset to you.
You see , the cost of the volitility is paid by both the calls and the puts.
so the premium already covers the risk. Then time premium is just that, an asset to the writer.

As i all things , ultimately the cost, is borne by the consumers.
If the consumers have no collective voice, they become silent bearers.

So who's bearing the cost of financial instability, caused by errant policies? Ask any old man who had saved all his life. Where has it gone? Silent bearers.

Trivials for the day.
Know whats the difference between a professional and a non professional?
The non get paid only by productivity, The professional get paid even if he fails.
