Hey Tigers 🐯 2025 is wrapping up—and what a whirlwind year it has been for global markets.

From April’s tariff-driven selloff to Big Tech’s AI-fueled surge, from the Fed’s surprise rate cuts to crypto smashing all-time highs… volatility was the main theme of 2025. And in markets like these, options traders were right at the center of every twist and turn.

  • The Fed delivered rate cuts.

  • Tech stocks roared nearly +60% off spring lows, hitting record highs in October.

  • Concerns over an “AI bubble” then triggered the worst week for tech since April.

    如果要总结2025年的期权经历,我会说—既有胜利,也有学费,但每一笔交易都让我更清醒地认识到:在这个剧烈波动的时代,稳扎稳打才是最稀缺的能力。

    今年也不是没有教训。例如6月CPI公布前,我过度押注短线波动率上升,结果数据温和、波动率被压扁,权利金几乎蒸发。那次亏损让我彻底明白:方向对了不代表能赚钱,节奏和仓位管理才是王道。

    如果要说今年最让我印象深刻的一笔交易,就是10月那次针对科技股回调的 保护性 Put对冲。当时科技板块连续疯涨,看得人心里直发毛,再加上媒体开始高喊“AI 泡沫”,我判断风险比机会大,于是买进了一组短周期、较深度价外的put。当市场出现自4月以来最惨的一周时,那组对冲不仅成功锁住利润,还帮我避开了超过一周的下杀。那次让我真正意识到:期权真正的价值,不是暴赚,而是 在别人恐慌时,你还能稳稳站着。

    回头看 2025 年,这真的算是我交易生涯中最戏剧化的一年。从春季因关税冲击导致的大抛售,到科技股在 AI 需求爆炸下狂飙 60%,再到美联储突然降息、加密货币一路冲破历史新高……市场每一次转弯都来得又急又狠。作为期权交易者,我几乎感觉自己全年都站在风口浪尖。

    For me, 2025 was the year I finally stepped into options trading—and I’m glad I started. I’m still a beginner, but my first trade, a PLTR call, ended with a small profit and gave me the confidence to explore options.

    Even so, I still trade mostly the underlying stocks because I’m not fully comfortable with the complexities of options yet. I prefer to take things slow while I learn about strike selection, expiration management, and position sizing, so sticking with shares kept my portfolio steady through the year’s volatility.

    AI was the biggest driver of my portfolio in 2025, and starting my options journey with Palantir felt fitting. The sector’s strength carried my performance, and I’m looking forward to building on what I learned as I continue improving my option strategies in 2026. I’m excited to take more calculated option trades as my confidence grows. With more practice, I hope to make options a bigger part of my overall strategy.

    從4月份關稅驅動的拋售到大型科技公司人工智能推動的飆升,從美聯儲意外降息到加密貨幣創下歷史新高……波動是2025年的主題。在這樣的市場中,期權交易者處於每一個轉折的中心.
