What is Short Selling? and How does it Work?
Nice video. It was cute the way you set it up via the title and the into. You’re right AND wrong. Beginners shouldn’t trade naked options until they know what they’re doing. I personally LOVE trading naked. I noticed you mentioned Robinhood. Yes RH will not allow you to trade naked because it’s basic as a platform AND it’s for beginners however most PROFESSIONAL brokerage firms allow you to trade NAKED (noticed I used the word PROFESSIONAL). Personal I love TastyTrade because I don’t even have to ask for a different trading level to trade all styles. I just ask for the works.
Thank you
It helps me. I did not know how to add multiple legs to my strategy. Thank you
Good and to the point.
I don't have; 'Cancel order' 'Cancel/replace order' I have everything below those two so now I am absolutely confused I need to stop these 'filled orders' now.
If the order has been "filled" that means the order has already been executed. If you entered a position, like buying shares, you can execute a sell order to close your position. If you don't understand how to use your trading platform I would highly recommend using the paper money practice trading so that you can learn how to use the platform without risking your own money.
@@investingforthecommonman4533 I wish I could show you, that’s what I mean I have a buy and sell on GBP/USD in the order filled section but in open position section there’s literally nothing. It’s very confusing. Anything I right click on doesn’t me the close and replace option at the top, it just doesn’t even show. For the record I’m not blaming the software, I do think it’s probably just me being a dumbass. But it’s very annoying.
@@investingforthecommonman4533 Also thank you for getting back to me, especially on a video that’s 2 years old. 🙌
Hi, what is the difference of saving a Study Set (s)vs saving a Style (s)? I understand saving the Workspace.
how do you overlay this onto the active trader view
Thanks for your videos. I'm new to ThinkorSwim and am having trouble entering an option order for example on any stock say sell a 100 put with a weekly expiration date next Friday and buying a 90 put with an expiration date of January or February. Can you please give me some advice on how to do that. Thanks
No problem, you should be able to use the drop down option chain menu to open the two expiration dates you are looking for and then hold "control" while you click on the bid and the ask of the two options you want. If you make a mistake, you can make adjustments on the order form that shows up down at the bottom of the screen when you click on the bid or the ask price of the option that you want.
I am disabled I can only use my mouse hand, so I cant hold control... Are their any other ways to leg into a trade?
Yes there is certainly a way to do it. Holding control is only a shortcut. I believe if you click on one of the options that is part of your strategy and go to the order form you can click on the button that says "single" and select the strategy you want to use from there.
Sir pls make video on difference between iv vix and Vega btw love ur video ❤️🔥
Greetings...Thank you for the tutorial...I have a question for you....What is the Name of the melody at the end of this video with the Bugles ? Thank you in advance.
Thank you for asking! The melody is from Aaron Copland's Fanfare for the Common Man. I myself am a professional French Horn player and recorded myself playing the arrangement of that melody that I use in my videos. I hope you enjoy. And if you are interested in more horn playing, you can explore my other RUclips Channel: www.youtube.com/@lukebaker137
no longer looks like this.
Its like here are all these complex stratages, but you're probably better off to just automating buying S&P500. Even if I learn all this stuff, I still bank on my own incompetence letting me down. The only thing I want to learn is is there a tiny % of leverage that can increase your Sharpe ratio while still being like 99.999% your not going bust.
Thank you!
Pretty poor resolution.
Pause at 0:29 for self reflection 😂🤣
Lol that intro tho
It's a preference bro. Stop scaring the beginners away. Let them find out themselves and weigh their options. 😂😂
why is the mobile version and web version very different in terms of credit spread. in the mobile version, we can select any amount and range, but in the web version we can't. Please advise.
The software is different for different platforms, but the functions are the same. I did not create the user interface.
So after opening it, do you need to do anything else or do you have to choose what stocks to invest it into? Or is it already taken care of?
Yes! The only difference from a Roth IRA and a standard investing account is the tax advantages when saving for retirement. In both types of investing account you pick the investments and have the freedom to invest your money however you see fit. If you are looking for a simple solution, investing in an index fund like SPY or QQQ is generally a recommended, hands off strategy.
Thank you for this question and answer. Was wondering the same. Say you hit on a stock like GME and it goes crazy. It’s still tax free at retirement and you don’t have to file taxes on it? Sorry I’m from Ireland new living in the US and trying to get up and running. Thank you for the videos
thank you
Thank you for explaining the Greek
Thank you so much very helpful 👌
So the Roth IRA through TD is essentially a brokerage account as in you can buy stock and accumulate dividends without paying taxes?? So you can invest and forget about it?
Yes it is still a brokerage account, but the government gives you this tax break to individual investors to give them an incentive and an edge when planning for retirement.
@@investingforthecommonman4533 thanks
Thank you so much for this video. It was exactly what I needed. Appreciate your time and explanation.
Great video! I am 41 and NEED to jump on this! Quick question, I played around with some IRA calculators out there and see that there seems to be a higher return on traditional IRA vs the Roth in all cases. I can't figure out why that would be the case? It seems like the Roth is the only way to go (for most of us). I am married, she makes under $100K and I am even less after my expenses deducted each year on the photo side. Trying to figure this all out so I can get going before the end of the year.
A Roth IRA will likely be best for you. Those calculators can be a bit misleading. With a traditional IRA you get to deposit money before paying taxes on it, but you have to pay taxes on the principal and the growth that you are withdrawing during your retirement. With a Roth IRA, you go ahead and pay your standard income tax now, but then you don't have to pay taxes on the principal or the growth in retirement.
@@investingforthecommonman4533 Thanks so much. I just opened a Roth with TD bank. Never been more excited (and depressed) all at the same time. At 41 years old (even maxing out each year) it says I will not have enough. But, I know its better than nothing.
@@travisharrisphotography Your Roth IRA is just one tool in your tool belt, it does not have to be your only retirement savings account. You can still save money and invest in many other wealth growing assets. There is no deposit limit in a standard brokerage account.
@@investingforthecommonman4533 This is great advice. Yeah, I was thinking the Roth, is a no brainer (tax free in the end) so max that out each year from now on, no matter what (and make that the priority). Then, yes, keep a standard brokage account and contribute there as well. Perhaps have a mix in there of more aggressive assets (that I still need to figure out). Maybe I could have a % set to say the S&P, but then have some % in just a handful of specific companies that might trend well.
Keeping it real. ;)
Why you choose TD ameritrade vs Fidelity? Which is better?
What a wuss ha. You will never lose unlimited money if you follow your trade and close out a loss.
🤣 If you think you know better than heed words of caution, all the more power to you! Good luck out there, you will need it!
@@investingforthecommonman4533 You even said it’s exactly what insurance companies do. They are very profitable, despite paying millions or billions in claims every year.
I think you missed the point of the video. If you are out here on RUclips, trying to learn how trade naked options, then you are probably not experienced enough to safely do so. You would be better off learning about other risk defined strategies. (Like I cover in the more serious videos on my channel) I never said that it was impossible make money selling options. Insurance is similar to selling PUT options, sure. But insurance companies never insure things with no cap on its value like a naked CALL option.
Very helpful, thank you!
I agree with you 100%
The guy that madse this video needs help.
How can I get my premium
It will just go into your brokerage account when you close the position or the option expires
With a Roth IRA, can I just deposit money and let it grow over time without needing to buy stocks and what not? Also I can deposit a certain amount right, it doesn't have to be 6,000 right away when I sign up?
A Roth IRA is an investment account, so your money will not grow unless you use the money you deposit in the account to invest in assets like stocks, bonds or mutual funds. you can deposit any amount each year, 6,000 is just the maximum you can deposit per year.
@@investingforthecommonman4533 Ah Ok got it thanks
Nice video, what's happens if stock price at exp. Goes in-between,thanks
If the price is in between your strikes then you can close the position for a small profit or loss in the last few hours before the option expires, or you can take assignment and sell the stock at market price on the next trading day (although this second option caries a bit more risk.)
Too bad the app is trash and studies randomly disappear. The quality of TOS is 💩
.75x So... instead of comparing IV between strike prices on the same exp. day, to really utelize vega, I should be comparing the vega on strike prices on different exp. days ...? Right?
Selling naked positions allows for a LOT more flexibility and higher win %. The real reason why you should not trade naked options is if you think it is safe to do so on MEMEstocks, now that will destroy you. Using the insurance analogy from the video, selling a naked position on a MEME stock is like selling insurance to a fresh-faced 16-year-old with a cherry red lambo. You will get some sweet premium(charge a lot), but that kid IS going to wreck the lambo and you will be covering the damages(while he smirks at you).
You are correct. It is possible to use naked options effectively, and meme stocks certainly come with a much higher level of volatility. But we live in volatile times, even standard stocks can make sudden volatile moves under the right conditions. It doesn't matter if you have a 99% win rate, if 1 bad trade has the potential to wipe out the gains of 99 successful ones. This video is only meant to caution excited trading novices, bot prohibit the strategy in all circumstances.
I do it; and have survived 1 year of crashing and burning. 1 year now of consistency. you simply have to learn to trade
Good for you, but I'm sure that first year of crashing and burning was not fun. I interact with too many people don't survive that painful learning period, and cannot in good conscience recommend those strategies to anyone new to trading.
once I've funded the account, am I going to see any growth throughout the year or will it be stagnant until I add more funds?
Once you have deposited funds in your Roth IRA. You can use those funds to buy Index funds, Mutual Funds, Stocks or Bonds. One of the advantages of a Roth IRA is that you have the freedom to chose what your money is invested in, as opposed to a 401k. Even you leave your IRA funds in cash, then you will make a slight amount of interest similar to that of a savings account, but the main purpose of an IRA is to grow your money by investing it in the stock market or bonds. If you have questions on how to buy stocks or other assets within your Roth IRA account, I have made several videos on the subject.
if u get assigned can u still roll over ?
If you are going to roll a position, you always have to do it before the contract expires, so before you get assigned. But often rolling isn't profitable. The point of cash secured puts and covered calls is that you are prepared to be assigned and buy/sell the shares.
Wait which contribution type did you select? If I select 2022 contribution can I add in 2021 contribution at a later date? And what is the 60 day roll over?
So normally you have a few months after the year to deposit your yearly contribution. For a 2021 contribution, I believe you need to make you 2021 contribution before the end of April.
You should contribute to your 2021 IRA before you contribute to your 2022 IRA. You have until tax day (typically Apr 15) 2022 to contribute $6,000 to your 2021 IRA.
Deserves more views for sure. Came across your stuff an hour ago and i have learnt quite a few things.
You really cleared up what I wanted to know in the first 3 min I wasn’t sure why they weren’t asking for information regarding my job and it’s because it’s non taxable while it’s in the account which I had no idea about until now thanks
Investing for the Common Man begins with "Fanfare for the Common Man." Nice.
Does TD let you know how much you’ve contributed for the year so far?
Have you logged into your TD account and looked?
This is a very slow and discombobulated process to edit an order . There are much easier and faster platforms. Especially for day trading.
This is a step by step guide for beginners. Once you know what you are doing, editing orders never takes more than a second or two.
What do you recommend. I hate how the simple options to edit seem to disappear and only let you edit certain parts only.
@@investingforthecommonman4533 How do you actually edit orders that were saved under the customs. The options to actually edit the conditions don't exit
👍👌👍
so when you set it up do you then have to choose where to put your money ? Like Stocks , ETF's , etc. I'm very new to this but not young so I want the best bang for my buck.
Yes the Roth IRA is just a tax advantaged investment account. You still have 100% freedom to invest in your hard earned money in what you believe in. So you can choose whichever stocks or ETFs that best suit your investment goals.
What if I'm rolling over from an old 401k? does the 6k max limit still apply?
Q2 No. You may contribute $6,000 to IRA and rollover *any amount* from old 401(k) to IRA.
