Is it possible you are too scared of the crises? For example, the Nasdaq is up about 100% in the last 18 months alone. Even a 50% crash would only put it where it was 18 months ago.

Hello. Thanks for your comment. The world is crazy these days, but it always has been in a way. We're just trying to take advantage of inefficiencies in the market when we see them!

Hello! Not exactly. The money remains in your brokerage account, and we never touch it. You run our Automation program in your own brokerage account that we don't have any access to. Hopefully that makes sense!

Thanks for your comment!

Thanks!

I'm a little confused on what you are asking here.

I'm not sure exactly what you are referring to here.

That really depends on whatever you think is best. For defined-risk spreads we typically wouldn't set a stop loss though. They have a defined-risk, and that kind of acts as your stop loss.

Hey thanks for your comment. But, it looks to be correct. For example, price is at $125/share in that picture. The 110, 115, and 120 calls are In The Money as show in the green arrow. For the Puts below.. the 110, 115, and 120 puts are Out Of The Money with the stock price at $125/share.

Correct! 100 shares are assigned per option contract that expires ITM.

Our pleasure! Thanks for watching!

Hello! These videos take a lot of time and effort to produce. We have a good chunk of free videos on our website including mini courses on options. It's a great base foundation to learn and find out if you are interested in this kind of stuff. We have been working hard for our premium members and paid memberships via our website. There's only so much time in the day and resources we can spend though! Our trading is still going great and we'll make an effort to create more videos here on UA-cam soon! However, keep in mind that our premium members and paid memberships take top priority for us, which is where we dive into trading mechanics and training much deeper than we do here on UA-cam.

Glad it was helpful and thanks for watching!

Thanks for your comment! We're allowed to disagree respectfully. 2 different opinions are what make a market after all!

Hello! What makes you not sure about the trading skills?

Nope! That is a common misconception though. There are different approval levels with brokers, and when you are approved to trade options you do not need to own shares of stock to sell options. There is a "covered call" strategy that is +100 shares of long stock and -1 Short Call though. But most of the option strategies you can use do not require holding any shares of stock. Hope that makes sense!

You are welcome, and thanks for the kind words!

Thanks for the kind words and keep up the hard work! You got this!

Thanks so much for the kind words!

You're welcome 😊

Hey, great questions! I'll answer them a bit below.. 1. Everything has a POSSIIBLITY to make money. But, not everything makes money if you do it robotically. Selling a call that has a 90% chance of staying ITM is basically like selling -90 shares of stock. The P/L of that short call acts similar to -90 shares of stock basically. Just like buying a call that has a 90% chance of expiring ITM would act as +90 shares of long stock. Those very deep ITM options act similar to shares of stock, but buying or selling that call option requires less capital than buying or selling 90 shares of stock. 2. You can make money buying OTM options only if you get a HUGE MOVE in your direction. So, maybe you buy a call option in NVDA and NVDA stock goes up 50% in a 2 weeks. You would make a lot of money on a 2 week call option like that. However, most stocks don't go up that much that fast, and that's why most of them expire worthless. 3. You lose the difference between what you sold the call for and what it's trading at during that time. Let's make the math easier than the stock going to $1 million with the example below... Let's say you sold the 100 strike call for a $5 credit. Your break-even on this trade is 100 + $5 = $105/share. Anything above $105/share at expiration means you lose money on the option trade. Let's say the stock is trading for $175/share at expiration. Your break-even was $105/share. So $175 - $105 = $70. You would be down $70 on the option trade. Meaning, you sold the call for $5 and now it is trading for $75, give you a net loss of $70 on the option trade. A $70 loss on the option trade would be a $700 loss per option contract you sold. If you sold 2 calls for example you would be down $1,400. Hopefully that helps clarify some concepts!

@@skyviewtrading thanks for taking the time to reply.. it helped.

haha, yes we are real humans!

Glad it was helpful and thanks for watching!

Thanks so much for the kind words and for watching!

Cool, thanks!

Hello! The short call option makes money so long as price doesn't breach your break-even price. For example, you sold the 100 strike call for a $2 credit. Your break-even on this trade is $102/share. Anything above that at expiration would be a loss. If the stock expires below $102/share you will make a profit. Hopefully that makes sense!

Hello! Good question. No, it does not. As an option buyer you can exercise your right at any time to own the shares.

Why not!? Sharing and connecting with others makes life more enjoyable!

Thanks for the kind words! Yes, you would have made more money if you bought the call option for $100 instead of $500. However, either way we both would have made more money if we just bought the shares of stock in this situation. We would not have had to dish out any money for the calls that we bought. Hopefully that makes sense!

Hey, thanks for your kind words! Different traders track different things. Also, many traders track less and less as time goes on and they become more comfortable with their approach. Everything they need can be found from their Trade History at that point. Early on I personally tracked everything and anything. These days I track very little -- just a simple equity curve of my weekly P/L vs SPY (the S&P 500) benchmark. I encourage you to track everything you can early on! Over time you will find your personal preferences. I hope that helps!

Hello! 1. All brokers allow you to close option trades before expiration. 2. Yes. But an "early assignment" like that wouldn't happen unless the strike is very far ITM and it's closer to expiration. Also, even if you do get assigned your risk is still spread off, and you cannot lose more than your original max loss on entry. Hopefully that makes sense!

@@skyviewtrading Thank You for Responding!

Hello -- what minute mark are you referring to exactly?

That is correct! It's typically easy to get higher approval levels. We found TastyTrade to be the easiest broker to get approval levels with compared to other brokers.

haha yes, we must explain everything! =] Thanks for watching!

haha, yes -- always! =] Thanks for watching!

Glad you like them! Keep up the hard work!!

Thanks for the kind words!

Yes! Vertical put spreads are a strategy. A short put vertical or a long put vertical for example!
