Options has a price element and a time element... you can trade price...you can trade time or you can trade a combination of both and even split ratios of time elements and price elements.

Discipline and patience because TIMING is more important than price.

Market quiet...just waiting for next move....more moves more money.... Power !!!!

Thank you VB for sharing your strategy, and with so much info on your positions and account, much appreciated. :D
Anyone figured out the strategy already? :D
Let's discuss about the strategy. :s12:
Where are the risks and how the strategy mitigate it?:)

Below are the pro tips he gave

1) Straddle (that is obvious right, from the images, SPLIT the zero!)
2) Timing for the straddle (most important! I'm using astro indicators btw :), just back cal the approx pos from the P/L? Again split the ZERO!)
3) small account size
4) no stop loss

Please contribute to this list, kum sia :D

You are most welcome.

You have already got a risk strategy and a stop loss integrated into the system but may not have seen it.

Risk varies from person to person and also needs to be clarified and tailored to each individual...what is risky to me may not be risky to the next person and risk would normally be quantified as money lost or money at risk of being lost but in real life this is not the case...there is also an emotional risk...the risk of loss of face...the risk of being ridiculed and these risks carry more weight than we sometimes care to explore.

Small account size and no stop loss goes a long way to addressing these issues.

Small account size means small monetary risk...that small amount is all that you can lose...some may come in and say...you can lose more than that...blah blah blah...in reality...No

No stop loss takes away your emotional tag...if you have a stop loss...that weighs on you day in and day out.....if you don't have it...then no stress..so what??...wiped out completely??...it is only $5000

These 2 factors already take away the emotional baggage involved in a disastrous unexpected turn of events...aka...Black Swan

What that means is that it takes away all the .. What ifs??

Thank you for the grail :D

Lai lai pls contribute

1) Straddle (that is obvious right, from the images, SPLIT the zero!)
2) Timing for the straddle (most important! I'm using astro indicators btw , just back cal the approx pos from the P/L? Again split the ZERO!)

your signature remind me of uncle168, great guy.
remember those days we saw the low of STI,
and hitting my greatest jackpot in crude oil.


don't fund account when there is margin call

take any profit to maintain capital size, so as to be remained stress free


No I always preserved my Capital and grow my account size.
There will never be "if" as I have prepared how much I'm willing to give market on every trade I took.

I'm quoting his dramatic post :s13:, always bugged me why an egg why not ba pau or chicken wing :s13:

Lets discuss about VB strategy, any thoughts on it :s12:

1) Straddle (that is obvious right, from the images, SPLIT the zero!)

After deciding how much to give market -

I must master - Timing and execution based on the system that I have confident in - be in MA cross over, BB, etc.

Ah thank you, what do you think about VB's strategy?

1) Straddle (that is obvious right, from the images, SPLIT the zero!)
