Many traders are waiting for the short trade to happen or that one rug pull day where the DOW goes down 200 points.

Gotta love the equities markets… What I've finally learned, after much painful trial and error, is that writing options can indirectly cut down your losses. The simple fact is you now have a valid strategy to play alongside the smart money and market makers when the market goes cold. I've been really cutting down well on my losses this month and I give my new writing strategies the credit. Stick with Lucci!
