As you can see, it takes only 14 trades at 50% profit per trade, which is not a lot in options trading, to grow $5000 into a million. If you do only one of those trades per month, it takes you only slightly more than a year to become a millionaire. As such, becoming a millionaire from options trading is clearly not outside the realm of possibility and clearly very fast if you do it right.
That leads us to the next question, are you able to produce a string of 14 straight wins at 50% per win? There is clearly no easy answer to this as well. I have heard of extremely lucky people who has done that before but that clearly isn't something that applies to everyone.
Yes, in my 15 years of options trading, I must say that I have never seen anyone make a string of 14 wins within one year or two without losing no matter what options strategy they use. The good news is, you don't need to make 50% on every win nor do you need a string of 14 wins to make a million in options trading as long as you follow a sensible trading methodology and have lots of patience.
Making a million in options trading isn't about not losing. It's really about making more wins than losses. As long as you have a means of consistently making more wins than losses, you can make a million in anything as long as you have the patience to stick to the game. Yes, this is the same logic in any form of trading.
