Options trade management

Options Trade Management from Plan to Review

Options trade management is the end-to-end process of handling an options trade: choosing the setup, planning entries and exits, recording execution, adjusting the position and reviewing the outcome.

The trade management lifecycle

  • Choose the stock
  • Set targets
  • Write the plan
  • Get alerted
  • Execute at your broker
  • Record and review
  • Measure against goals

Management, not prediction

Good trade management does not require predicting price. It requires deciding in advance what you will do at each level and then keeping an honest record.
