This stat's been going around and claimed by many sources, which implies that most options will expire worthless therefore the options sellers are at an advantage.
Now, swing and day traders need to be right more than 50% of the time in order to net a profit. Casinos work the same way, the house has a slight edge. Now, if options sellers really are right 75% of the time, this means you're more likely to be a successful options sellers than day traders, swing trader, etc. So my question is, if this really is true, why isn't everyone options selling? After all, based on that statistic, this should be the most profitable. Surely there's got to be a catch, otherwise we'd all be millionaires
