Tried the FV annuity formula myself a while back. Thought it’d give me an edge, but ended up overcomplicating things.
These days, sticking to basics like support/resistance levels and trend lines works better for me. Last week caught a nice TSLA option play just using those.
If you’re set on using it though, maybe backtest it first before risking real money.
FV annuity formula doesn’t really fit with options trading. I’ve tried fancy math before, but it just complicates things unnecessarily.
Stick to the basics that actually move option prices: implied volatility, time decay, and price action. These factors will impact your trades way more than any formula.
Last month, I made a solid 40% on AMZN calls just by watching for a breakout above key resistance and timing the entry when IV was relatively low. Keep it simple, focus on real market dynamics, and you’ll likely see better results.
