Who stands the major in the market? Its all financial institutions. Whats are these?

Why trade options?And understand what is options
Hi readers
Alot of investors who keep away from trading or any kinf instruments because they feel that its a ZERO SUM Game. Why? Cause they always thinks that everytime there is a winner in the market means there is a loser. You have to understand that OPTIONS trading is never a sure lose or zero sum chess board. Simple reason is that for options there are lots of ways that they can hedge against each other. Also you and i dun have to know how many options contracts actually expired worthless. Or how many won and lost the chess game in order to figure out the numbers of winnings and losers in the market. So its never a '' When there is a loser, there will be a winner'' It does not mean that way.
Lets put it in a simpler way. If you Buy a contract of straght options CALL. It does not mean that the seller who sells you the contracts loses money. And neither that when you buy it means that you are losing. Why? Cause you can actually convert it into a call spread. Or bought the contract options using spread.What is a call spread? this i will cover in the later part.
We all have to understand this theory. Its unlike trading other counters of direct buy and sell. Its totall unlike shares or scripts. Options there are lots of ways you can play around with. Like PUTs or Calls or spreads. it can actually make you tones of money if you know the systen right. And the application which is the most important. Its totally unlike shares market where when you buy means that the direction will have to be up trend. So when you sell it. You make the profit. Its totally another kind of story for options. We will cover more on this in the later part.
Cheers

Just that do you know where to get it thats all. It actually helps you determine which counter or share or options you can take a look at. Today am going to share something on whats known as insider trading.

Right now am going to share with you this information. You see, insiders trading information is one of the resources where you have a guide to what you are expecting. Insders traders itself are either big players in the market or big boys. Why cause they can move the market.
Why? simple....cause something is with comming up for the company or there is big news comming up or the company is going to outperform or the company is going to have some kind of information comming up. You dun expect the insider trader to start buying shares of a company in millions like this last couner energy recovery which has a accumation insider trading of 39.72million shares right? Whats comming up? do you and i know? SO is there going to be something thats comming up? Yes am i right? So what i always so is that after i get this information i will go and do a reseacrh on the information on the counter inself. But you may be asking....Where ? what to look for? and etc...As i say ...Dun worry. I will share all this information with you guys if you enjoy reading my blog and give me comments.
The information on insider trading i will try and post here daily till one day you guys can see where i share the links in one of the postes. Ha you must be banging. But i do need you guys to follow me.
Next i will be shareing alot of informations where to get companies information even before they have their earnings announcements. Have you ever had this problem?
Normally companys either gap up or gap down on earnings? Do you wanna have a peice of this information? how to get it? why is it important? How to enter the market?
Thanks

Edvience of why its better t closed your trade daily
Hi guys
Remeber me tell you all that its always adviseable to closed your trade daily in this unforseen conditions of the USA market. The last two days DJIA was flying all the way and making singapore market confidence and hence the maket too pick up last two days, So if you have not took my advise and strategy. Wether is it my strategy or your own or others. Its always adviseable to closed your trade daily....Unlike opions where you can do repair. For stocks trading you can never do any repair on it.
You can never forsee whats gonna be the market like tomorrow. So why take the risk? My advise is based on my experience for years of trading, There may always be good news or oil price comming down etc to make the market moves in th USA. But you never know how the market will react. Cause in todays market, the most important thing we have to understand is that its not the people that will react. Its the population of traders that will react. There may be alot of good news on earnings etc. But the market still does not go in the direction of whats too be. Why simple for my understanding. You may think that its good news for you and me. But not for family or youy family. The simple logic of this is that. You never know what i forsee and am thinking. Lets discuss this. Hope that you guys will give some comments. Cause there is not right or wrong.
Thanks
