Reasonable rate of return when trading options

[hardtofin]

Hi guys,

As the thread title suggests, to all you option traders out there; What would you expect is a reasonable rate of return annually from trading in options.

Also, are there many option traders here or is it mainly spreadbetters?


Best regards,

1m% is probably about average around here

Haha. So it's the same as other investment boards I've been on previously then .

No hard and fast rules... Can be pretty much anything and will depend on what sort of strategies are used.

Do you trade options yourself Martin?

I dabble... I don't confine myself to options, but I do use them when a suitable occasion presents itself.
