Buying calls is 10 out of 10 max difficulty in options.
That is why I only buy calls when I am 10 out of 10 max bullish on something.
Not 7 out of 10.
Not 8 out of 10.
Not 'kind of bullish.'
I want odds stacked 95 to 5 in my favor before I buy a call.
Most retail investors do the opposite.
They buy calls on whatever is hot.
Whatever is trending.
Whatever pumped this week.
That is why most retail loses money on options.
Match the difficulty of the trade to the strength of the setup.
Calls demand max conviction.
Puts demand strong conviction.
Shares demand basic conviction.
Get this wrong and you will lose money no matter how smart you are.
