While many traders like to trade forex. Currency trading options if used correctly, can give you two great advantages that can lead you to long term trading success. Let's take a look at them...
Here we will look at how to buy options correctly and take advantage of limited risk and unlimited gains and how to sell options and get odds of 90% success in your favour!
1. Option Buying For Big Gains
The person who buys an option gains a huge advantage and that's staying power. You don't have to worry about price swing against you in the short term, so long as your option trades in the money at expiry you win.
You have unlimited profit potential and strictly limited risk which is the premium you have paid for the option.
Most traders constantly get stopped out by price swings against them in the short term and buying options allows them to ride out these swings. There are two golden rules you should keep in mind when buying options.
The first point is to buy at or in the money options only and to have plenty of time to expiry.
Of course what most traders do is go for cheaper options a long way from the price and don't buy far enough forward. In betting terms these are long shots and you will lose, as the odds are not in your favour at all. 90% of options expire worthless so you need to do what most option traders don't.
You need to buy time and that means close or in the money options and if you have a sound forex trading strategy and do this, you can make a lot of money with currency options trading.
2. Selling Options for Big Gains
Let me ask you a question - How would you like to trade with odds of 90% in your favour?
Of course you would and you can by selling options. The option buyer of course has unlimited gains and limited losses and 90% chance of failure. The seller on the other hand, has a 90% chance of success, unlimited risk and a limited gain.
The key here is you have huge odds on your side and while the gains may be limited they add up, unlimited risk simply requires a spread of options and good money management.
Option sellers do the reverse of what a buyer does - You sell options, with little time to expiry to get time decay on your side and you sell out of the money options as the odds are in your favour.
Option sellers requires a good account size and you should spread your risk but with 90% odds on your side that options expire worthless and using the above tips to make even more money, you can build long term gains with the odds firmly on your side.
Currency options trader's suits all traders novices will love the comfort of limited risk and buying time and the well capitalized serious trader will love the great odds he gets selling options. Look at the above in greater depth and you will find options are a great tool to lead you to long term currency trading success.
