About Great Option Trading Strategies
Hi. My name is Brad Castro. I began this site in May 2008 (and I also operate a second site, www.real-austin-texas.com, an Austin, Texas resource guide and directory for visitors and residents alike).
I'm an individual investor who learned the hard way how to consistently make money in the stock market (by first learning how to consistently lose money in the stock market). For me, the crucial breakthrough came about when I learned to align my individual option trading strategies with my own personality.
Although I admire competent and proficient (and profitable) traders, I have come to appreciate that I am, at my core, an investor, not a trader.
Investing (as in long term investing) and option trading may seem a strange mix, but I chose to put together this site to challenge that assumption. In addition to wanting to construct a solid site of option trading resources, I also wanted to promote some of my own ideas about options and the best option trading strategies for long term investors.
Specifically, I'm an advocate for what I term Leveraged Investing, customized option strategies designed to simulate and amplify successful value investing. I have found the results to be consistent and rewarding.
Have a look around. Regardless of your market orientation and specific personality, it's my hope you'll find the resources here useful and helpful.
Sincerely,
Brad Castro
