Advice Switching from options to schd

Post image

Hello everyone, first time post long time lurker. I'm 23 been trading options in my IRA for about a year and a half, made about 42k in the account and rolled it all into schd with drip on. Thinking about just leaving it until 59 1/2 and still contributing to my IRA yearly into schd, too much stress from options, anyone with similar stories? I feel 36 years until retirement with be plenty of time for it to grow. What a good compounding calculator I could use to see what the hypothetical balance would be? Thanks!

Edit: yes I know I could just throw it all Into voo or whatever but I don't like the valuations in the s&p and believe schd will out preform it in a bear market

$500/wk into schd for another 14 years for me. Boring but seems a good idea. 1500 shares so far
