Hey guys. I'm a fourth year (senior) at UVA. I had a summer internship at an energy hedge fund, where I was a trade analyst. I learned a ton about options, and how they would be helpful for risk management/hedging purposes. I also saw the incredibly risky and lucrative side of options. It's been a wild ride, and a ton of fun.
Here is a screenshot of my returns over the semester. http://ift.tt/2zcdgqJ
I'd love to know if there's anyone else in the community that's a risk junkie, and trades naked options as well.
Major names/events I traded around were: -BWLD long before earnings -SNAP Short before earnings -OSTK (sad to admit, but jumped on the crypto mania) -MAT event driven strategy -RIOT short, because after 15 minutes of research, it was clearly a fraud -SM (play this oil and gas name every two weeks, riding volatility mean reversion up and down) -HK (another oscillating oil and gas name)
