Yesterday I did something that I bet many of you haven’t done in years…
Can’t say how many years it had been for me, 5? 6? 7?
What was it? I went up into my attic looking for something

If your under the age of 44sh you may not believe this but it’s real, 🙃 we used to write out our SSN on actual paper and stuff. I found stuff with my full SSN on it ( not just the last 4 ) from an old bank statement to a high school I.D. I was mortified to think we did that….
These days we keep that a secret, it can even be “encrypted” and we pay services to protect us from fraud

Protection is the name of the game to many things in life, in the stock market it should be as well. That’s a big part of why we often use multi legged strategies and not just long calls or puts. It’s about living to trade another day> This is note worthy::: If you feel a stock is going in a certain direction, and the trend is good, and willing to forgo protection in the way of using multi legged spreads, the calls and puts are where it’s at for that time
But not every strategy works in every market
