.buying swing +CFW OVERSIZED at .22 Jan 4 strike calls. After last week reentering C stock at 3.55 im backing the position up with a new options position. Last week some of us had some big losses in options but it illuminates the need to control sizing in options, for instance a oversized stock stake in my discipline is 5 times larger than a equivalent oversized stake in options since in options U always have the risk of a 100% loss, so strategy should factor some full losses in just as easily as a higher risk options play can yield many multiples in profits. please if your new to options never EVER enter without a sizing discipline, my opinion ofcorse.
