How do I get started trading options on stocks and futures?
I was trained on the cover d ', so I'm not asking you advice on how to learn or develop modeling strategies for trading options. I have experience working by evaluating options and developing strategies for dynamic replication, but I never is trading. I want to start relatively small – I am at ease to about $ 20K at risk. I would be looking for coverage options cons options while trying to limit the amount of dynamic hedging. I think I need to create some margin in addition to any option premium income. $ 20K is reasonable? Are there brokers specializing in options? Does anyone recommend CME, CBOE and other tools? (I know some exchanges offer tools for subscription.) Thank you!
OptionsXpress specializes in options, I do not know this term. Interactive Brokers do not specialize in options, but they do so I guess Futures Stock Futures are available. IB handles stocks and bonds as well, so I suppose you could use the margin if you have them. In the size depends on the size and position of potential risks. Coverage of trade implies to me that every business has a loss Dollar Max, who can plan a little. Rule of thumb is that you should be able to withstand 20 losses before wiping your account or its getting so small that you can not trade. 20 defeats in a row is unlikely, but 5 in a row is very common. If you can stand 10 losses and you get 5 in a row, you under enormous psychological pressure, with half of your game or more parties. So, if each job has a maximum loss of $ 1,000, $ 20K should be fine, provided that you answer margin requirements.
