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.
