What no one tells you about Option Selling? (Harsh Truth) @thetradingscholarr

Description :

Option selling mein toh unlimited risk hai. This is the biggest myth that keeps retail traders trapped in the low‑probability game of option buying. While buyers struggle with a win rate of less than 20%, what if you could flip the odds in your favor and trade a system with a 60% (or higher) probability of profit? Most traders lose money not because they are bad at predicting direction, but because they are playing the wrong game. Time decay, volatility, and probability are stacked against them. In this episode, we have Kundan, a seasoned options trader demystifies the world of option selling. He explains through first principles why selling options, when done systematically with proper hedging, is a far superior and more scalable way to generate consistent returns from the market. Forget trying to predict the market; learn to build a system where you profit even when the market goes sideways or moves slowly against you. He doesn't just explain the theory—he walks you through his personal “Monthly No‑Brainer” strategy, back‑testing it live on‑screen to show how it performs with zero adjustments needed.
