I was very surprised how easy it is to make money trading volatility. My weekly performance was -3, -4, 8, and 23%.
So even with no experience trading volatility and plenty of mistakes, I still managed to make money — but a general understanding of options is needed.
If you are not comfortable trying it on a real broker account, there is built-in paper trading. Volatility trading is great for unused cash or margin, does not take much preparation, and you can do it ahead of time if you have a day job.
The tool is easy to use. Creators are very active and helpful, and there is an active community on Discord. I can't imagine trading volatility without EarningsWatcher.
