5. If you are trading in Options,
don't ever average the Calls - Puts of your 'Now OTM' calls - puts (after market has gone against you). Its a different dynamics trading Options. If not confident of directions, DONT TRADE, else trade with proper headging!

Just wanted to give a summarized version of all that am advising people in my DMs. Not trying to spread fear, but the objective is to let you be aware of the Devils that lie hidden till you discover them.
PS: Have done all the above blunders,
