How Warren Buffett influenced my trades
Meet Bob "the buyer" and Sally "the seller"
Good morning,
Ever bought a call or put option and had it expire worthless?
You’re not alone.
Options act as insurance on stocks.
Meet Bob “the “buyer" who has a big stock position in TSLA. But Elon Musk has been unpredictable lately.
So he "buys" $200 worth of OTM put options, a month out, to 'insure' his stock against unpredictable Elon.
Bob owns a home too.
He insures it for $100 a month through Geico.
Meet his agent, Sally "the seller."
A month goes by and nothing bad happened to TSLA stock or Bob's house.
The $200 worth of put options he bought, to insure his TSLA stock, expire worthless, as does the $100 home insurance.
In both examples, the seller collected the premium.
If Bob wants to insure his stock again, he'll need to buy new put options.
Same for his house insurance, another $100 premium.
Which brings me to Warren Buffett.
Do you know what Warren Buffett’s favorite investment was?
Hint: it’s not Coca-Cola, Wells Fargo, Chevron, or even Apple. Although those have been great investments, he told Forbes:
“My favorite investment is GEICO, which I learned about when I was 20 yrs old."
Which makes sense, GEICO has increased billions since he acquired it.
How does an insurance company make that much profit?
They’re in the business of selling premiums they know will expire worthless.
Bob gets “peace of mind” while GEICO gets profit.
The same dynamic is at work when it comes to trading options.
You can either be a BUYER or SELLER of option contracts.
Geico calculates odds against Bob making a claim.
Option sellers bet against buyers making profits.
And in the $2,000 Small Account Journey that’s my edge.
It’s a live action case study and my most popular service.
My best push so far was $2,000 into $32,000 in about 4-months before a drawdown at which point I took profits.
Here’s my current balance which more than doubled from 11-13 to 11-21.
Results are not typical. Trading is hard. Nothing is guaranteed.
As a personal goal, I’d like to get one of these $2,000 balances to $100,000.
I want to point out that I cannot speak for my members’ performance, as results may not be typical and trading is HARD. And I cannot guarantee you will make money. But what I can guarantee is that I will work my BUTT OFF to teach you WHY I trade WHAT I trade.
Which is why I alert members before I enter and exit trades. So they can learn in real time.
