Could you please discuss position sizing in detail.

If you make small bets, and trade infrequently, then how do you make money?

Thanks in advance

Usually aim for 2% of your portfolio. My biggest position was 10% on AMZN puts but I was sure market will punish Amazon for reporting fake quarterly results, adding Rivian shares to earnings. Generally I wait for opportunity oversold or overbought, or top of the channel.

Your puts should print. The gap on chart should close one day. By overbought I mean move of the stock price relative to the news that moved the stock. Example NKE or AMZN move up by 10% on earnings but quarterly report is not that impressive if you look at the numbers yourself.
