Has anyone ever done stock/options trading full time? For how long? What made you stop?

I’ve traded consistently since the end of 2023 with options I was annoyed I didn’t know how to do it so I taught myself I think the interesting thing about options is it provides the ability to do something else along with it If I wasn’t working, my own business / trading would be my full time plans

It has changed my life financially The simplest explanation is read the news, get informed, have conviction If you believed crypto is the future why not bet with leverage on Coinbase and RobinHood the last few years? Like AI but aren’t betting on NVIDIA when it was 95 a share a few months ago? These are the ways we can take the convictions we have and discuss here and profit

How’d you learn? How’d you develop a feel for which strike price and expiration to pick?

A good recent example: FedEx didn’t offer future guidance bc of uncertainty and the stock dropped to ~ 210 I bought a call for March of 2026 expecting an increase in shipping as trade deals occur plus holiday shipping at EOY Goal would be to sell in November / December but also earlier if I’m happy with profit Currently up 65%
