regarding the concern about capping profits, its ultimately about how many positions close green and how many close worthless.
when you do uncapped profit calls/puts, you will generally find yourself holding bags many, many more times than youll see those sorts of parabolic GME type cashouts.
once capital is lost, its fuckin outta there. the over arching concern should be entering into positions with minimal risk of ruin.
if you can afford to just chunk off $600 at a time on long shots and hope one sticks, thats valid, im not saying dont do that. thats a hell of a lot of fun.
but if you start with $1000, and wager 50% of it every week at a 10% average profit target, in a year youre sitting on $10,500.
bump up your weekly average profits to 15% and youre closing out the year with $32k, and every week its generating $2200 in profit and you never have more than half your roll at risk.
you know how much youre sitting on after a second year?
$1,029,808.00
a fucking bar. in 2 years, you can spin $1k into a fucking bar and never have more than half of it at risk at once, just by cranking out 15% profit a week on the half your roll you put in play.
i find that math compelling.
