REDUCING YOUR RISK EXPOSURE

The most certain way to avoid risk is not to expose yourself to it. Unfortunately, unless you are planning on inheriting a lot of money, no risk exposure will mean no investment returns.

If you are new to options trading, our strong advice is go small at first. Get a feel on a personal level for what types of outcomes are possible. Make sure you are investing only an amount of money you are willing to lose entirely.

When you enter your options trades with your eyes wide open and your expectations more realistic, you will be better at managing your trades and, in turn, your risk.
