In Today’s Masters in Trading: Live Let me tell you about the trade that nearly broke me… I was a partner at a bond prop firm back in 2008. And for a while, we were riding high during one of the biggest bull markets in a generation. In fact, I made $4 million trading volatility that year alone. But then the 2008 Financial Crisis happened – and disaster struck. We faced a potential catastrophe with just one trade. Our firm had $32 million in capital. And a single oil trade put $15 million at risk. That trade went bad very quickly. In fact, our capital dropped from $32 million to $18 million overnight. Considering the other huge calamity that happened in 2008, I knew things could have gone a lot worse. But I still found myself wondering… What if we’d exited sooner? What if we’d done more to manage our risk on that position earlier? The tale of that trade always stuck with me. And it taught me a lesson I’ll never forget. Time is the biggest edge we have as options traders. The longer we wait for some big move to ignite a stock like wildfire, the less likely we’ll ever see that move happen. Time decay simply doesn't care about your hopes or predictions. But there's a flip side to this story. When you nail the timing – and you catch institutional money making their moves early – the payoffs can be extraordinary. And that’s when you discover trades with the best odds of landing those big, market-making moves.
