Greetings, and welcome to the BEFRIEND THE TREND Short-term Options Trading Thread!

INTRODUCTION: This thread is a spin-off from the BTTT main thread, where I post my daily stock trades. The main thread can be found here: Subject 21685 In this new thread, I want to experiment with some very short-term stock, options and even futures (stock/e-mini) plays.

STRATEGY: I will be using a standard BTTT-Classic methodology applied to daily and intraday charts; and also will experiment with a new version of the BTTT-MAX method applied to intraday charts.

BIG DISCLAIMER: This thread is intended primarily for my own entertainment. If others find it helpful, so much the better. All decisions to follow my lead are strictly your own. Very stinky losses can and will occur with these sorts of leveraged investment strategies.

USEFUL LINK: cboe.com

Good luck! God bless and happy trading!
