My story begins years ago when I traded my first security as a teen, a puny penny stock. From that point on I was hooked. Upon attending Indiana University I moved from active trading on my own to joining a propriety trading firm specializing in high frequency scalping techniques. While trading for the New York firm I became increasingly interested in options. Curiosity got the best of me; I was asked to trade on an electronic options trading floor in Chicago IL. I specialized in equity option scalping with a delta neutral hedging strategy. Currently I am trading my own account, both options and equities. While trading through the market's current collapse and subsequent violent upswing, I have learned a great deal about the operation of the financial markets. The basis of my trading strategy utilizes technical analysis to derive entry and exit points by taking into account current macro and micro market sentiment. I am here to share what I have learned with others, my musings including market commentary and technical analysis of selected securities.
