Get to know Larry

What motivates you every day?

The market; trading, analyzing, predicting, reacting — what a wonderful beast.

If you could instantly master one skill, what would it be?

Playing the pedal steel guitar.

What is a career "low point" that actually set you up for success?

Getting fired from Prudential Bache in 1990, because I then started my own business, which eventually I sold to INVST.

What piece of advice would you give your younger self?

Take more risk in high-probability trades, especially when using my own money.

What's a fun fact about yourself?

Most of my option knowledge is self-taught. I only read a couple of early books about them, and that was well after I started trading them.
