I've been navigating the US stock market for a year, mainly focusing on long-term call options. I'm currently slightly profitable.

Primarily long-term call options. It's undeniable that options indeed carry significant risks. My risk control strategy is:

1. Don't buy short-term options expiring within 3 months.

2. Don't buy options on small-cap stocks.

3. Mainly buy options on the US stock market's "Magnificent Seven," KO, and BRK.

4. Combine with my own account capital situation and reasonably follow the operations of @Value & Investment, Brother Value. I may not have innate talent, but I can at least follow.

5. Read books to learn;

6. Use tools like ChatGPT for fundamental analysis, valuation analysis, and learning to read financial reports on US stocks.

7. Patience is key with options. Finding opportunities is difficult, but you can patiently wait for them. When an opportunity comes, you must be able to seize it.

8. Maintain a good mindset. Be able to withstand volatility. Investment returns are not free; the real "price" to pay is not the commission fees, but the volatility, fear, doubt, uncertainty, and regret. The right mindset is not to see volatility as punishment, but as the necessary admission fee for obtaining long-term returns.

9. Restrain your greed and desires, only do things within your own understanding, and do not participate in gambling with expiration-day options.
