@@OptionsPlay What is the best timeframe for this strategy? I am new to trading and I have putting the work in to learn. I have a full time job so I don't think I can day trade.

Becoming a good trader takes time and patience. When i first got into trading i was liquidated twice, and lost my entire mortgage deposit. I could have given up, but decided to learn how to trade and put it into practice. 4 years later and i am glad i made that decision.
I agree, that's the more reason I prefer my day to day invt decisions being guided by a invt-coach, seeing that their entire skillset is built around going long and short at the same time both employing risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying off risk as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, coupled with the exclusive information/analysis they have, it's near impossible to not out-perform, been using a invt-coach for over 2years+ and I've netted over 1.5million
Controlling my portfolio cost me 7 figure losses in 2022. So, in January 2023 I sought advice from a fiduciary. Through restructuring and diversification with dividend stocks, ETFs, Mutual funds, and REITs, my $1.2M portfolio surged, yielding an annualized gain of 28%.
I've been thinking of going that route, been holding on to a bunch of stocks that keeps tanking and I don't know if to keep holding or just dump them, think you inv-coach could guide me with portfolio-restructuring

Hi Tony. I'm new to Options trading. I've been watching a video series on Options trading and observed that the 50 Delta YOU advise using for selling Put credit spreads isn't always equal to the ATM price. Sometimes the strike price that correlates to the 50 Delta is ITM. Is it okay to select the 50 Delta strike price even if it's ITM? I don't recall the exact numbers but using your 1/3 width rule it worked out to a value of about 47%. Again, the sell leg of the credit spread was ITM. I guess the way you approach trading is different. Their method involves placing trades that have targeted POPs of 70%. However, it seems this results in net credits that are often less than your 1/3 rule. That's the tradeoff.
Thanks for the great video Tony, I've been watching you, and am a member of options play for a couple years now, the information and education you provide is Unbelievable.. Thanks for everything you do. I started with a small account but it isn't any more by any means lol.
Great video. I like the use of the stop loss. I need to consider the short put at a higher delta and not worry too much if it goes in between the short and long range.
Tony this was great and informative video. When you reference credit spreads can I assume you are only including short put spreads and short call spreads, and not iron condors?
Thanks Tony was about to trade with $500 dollars luckily I didn't after watching this video it was a big loser and I would only been left with $192. I've still got a lot to learn, but I'll definitely be watching more content
Thanks Tony, I am very new in here, my question is when we bought debit spread or credit spread , we have to wait until expiration date or we can sell any time? Thank you ,, Ram ,

Excellent analysis, thanks! 👌 I wanted to ask something unrelated: 🤔 I only have these words 🤔. (behave today finger ski upon boy assault summer exhaust beauty stereo over). Can someone explain what this is? 😅
Question, since you seem highly intelligent and have been trading futures for 16 years plus how successful have you been have you made millions?? Or like some just into teaching the dream..
Thanks for the great lesson! When your stop gets hit, do you get huge slippage due to the spread on those contracts? Or is it usually pretty close on highly liquid options?
To the person who asked for an explanantion of the math behind max risk: I used to find it confusing, until I looked at it this way. My risk is the difference between the two strikes, if my short strike is exercised and I need to exercise my long strike to cover it ... *BUT* ... I collected a credit, and let's assume I left it in my account to cover my risk. If the underlying goes through *BOTH STRIKES,* I'm on the hook for the difference, but I still have that credit safely in my account to cover part of it.
I have a question about the example on 20:16. X, Jul 30, $23.5 Strike Sell Put to Open and $20 Strike Buy Put to Open. The volume on those strikes are very low. Wouldn't we be better off waiting for the Aug 20 expiration?

Thank you very much for you very interesting and very informative dividend. I have one question concerning the stop loss , you said exit with a loss of 100 % of the max gain and in the example presented just after, you notice $2 max profit and $4 for stop loss, for me it should be $2 instead as it represents 100% of the max gain which is $2 thank you for you answer ..
I have a super small account but I'm only doing call debit spreads. My brain tells me that if there is no risk of assignment, and my chance of profit is high, then it's just an issue of scaling. I intend to experiment with leaps and covered calls at some point, but I have a very high success rate currently. I feel like what I'm doing is smart what are your thoughts?
Tony, still don't understand setting the stop loss at $4.00 which you say is a $2 loss or 100% of max gain. Max gain is defined as width of spread ($5) minus the $1 (50% of max profit) = $4 max, correct?
Let me see if I understand this correctly: If I limit each trade to 2% of my account and a maximum of 5 trades, I can only trade 10% of my account? What about the other 90%? Keep it in cash, or what? Right now my account is ~ $6K and I have a single vertical spread with $150 risk. The rest of the account consists of stock and ETF position trades. If I liquidate ~ 10% of my account and use it to make 5 x $120 trades, I will be OK? Or is a 90% cash cushion needed for potential drawdowns? I've been studying various RUclips strategies, and I think liquidating a trade @ 21 DTE is the earliest suggestion I've heard. Is that for safety or to maximize profitability? IOW, will I make more by closing that trade to re-deploy that purchasing power in another trade to maximize theta (statistically)?
Very nice webinar. Thanks! I have a question. Rule 3 for Sustainable Growth (46:00) says to exit at 100% of max gain if losing. The example shows a $2.00 max gain. Yet the stop loss is shown as $4.00 debit. But that's twice the max gain. How is this understood? Thanks.
You receive a $2 credit for the spread, you set your stop loss at $4. If your stop loss is triggered you lose $4 - $2(Credit) = $2, which is 100% of what your maximum gain is.
Hi Tony, may I know why we need to exit 21days to expiration You said we exit trade if we got 50% profif, that means we are not going to have max profit for every trade
I was thinking the same thing. The risk-reward at taking only 50%of the max profit (100% of the loss) does not make this a viable strategy IMO. This will not hold up. Maybe someone can explain if I am incorrect.
Take the trade off at 50% profit because at that point you have less than 1/2 left to collect on the table in premium but still require the full buying power. It also dramatically increases your win rate (trades hit 50% win more often than 100%) At 21 days the trade accelerates either for you or against you - from day 45 DTE to day 21 DTE is roughly the best part of the Theta-decay curve to collect. This keeps a trade from turning from a 50% winner to perhaps a loser in the last 21 days. My preference is $5 - $10 even $20 wide collecting 1/3 the width and Iron Condors around the .16-.30 Delta. This guy is giving pretty good advice, I just prefer different delta. There is no free money and the best available 'edge' in options is being a net premium collector (option seller) If you think buying cheap options and hunting 5x-10x returns, is the right play 1) good luck long term and 2) you probably have a few thousand left to pay in your option education tuition.
Tony, I have reviewed the video a couple of times but I am not understanding the setting an order to stop loss at $4.00 (100% of max gain) which is effectively a $2.00 loss. If max profit is $2.00, where does the $4.00 stop come from? Is this the result of the width of the spread ($5), less the 50% of the Max Gain ($1) to equal $4.00?
I disagree with the 1-2% in risk management for a smaller account. Those are the rules for a larger account. With a smaller account you want to risk 5% per trade and take 2 trades per week. My strategy is buying calls or puts in the S&P 500 that are under $40. Let’s say you start out with 5k, “which is what I recommend to start” you would risk 5% which is $250. You would buy as many contracts as you can with $250. That’s one trade but you are taking 2 trades per week. Then you have defined risk management by only being willing to lose half of that. So if you lose $150 on the trade, you would then exit. Profit wise you would sell half on your contracts at a price target then let the rest ride but that’s more advanced. If you really want to grow a small account into a large account, I wouldn’t go the route of credit spreads as the profit is low. I do suggest it for beginners to get a general idea but not something as a long term strategy.
yea ik plus spreads that last 45 days is such a long time, idk if he mentioned it but for you to make the money in the trade is if the contract expires worthless.
An issue with credit spread is you have to wait until the expiration date to make a profit. The timing is extremely important. i.e. to make 50% of the max reward on the spread, you will need to wait at least a week before the option expires.
That's only a cons for traders who are successful consistently more than 60% of the time and your losses are consistently small. That scenario equals never happens.
I am recommending you to invest with henry on youtube , this is not just a recommendation it's something i have benefited from and willing to share with others ,he is broker who has helped a lot of students and investors i made 12k first week with him you can check him out or easily reach out to him with link in my first comment
Don't you need to be prepared if assigned on the short side? You can buy back your short option before assignment but your broker still may not let you do this method unless you can cover the possible assignment. This may limit the profitability it seems unless you have a lot in your account. If I want to reduce assignment probability I would have to sell way out of the money with strike price at maybe 20% below stock price. This makes for low premiums or I guess one would have to close option positions before assignment. Looks interesting though. I will paper trade a few times for sure to see what happens.
I know one of the cut offs is 21 days to expire, but in your experience how long are you usually sitting in these spreads before tripping a limit or stop loss?
Opening at 45 days until expiration and closing at 21 days until expiration - The average trade length is 24 days. These also line up nicely - the first week of the month the monthly options in the next month are 45'ish days away. The last week of the month will have these options down to near 21 days until expiration.

Right now my account is ~ $6K and I have a single vertical spread with $150 risk. The rest of the account consists of stock and ETF position trades. If I liquidate ~ 10% of my account and use it to make 5 x $120 trades, I will be OK? Or is a 90% cash cushion needed for potential drawdowns?
I've been studying various RUclips strategies, and I think liquidating a trade @ 21 DTE is the earliest suggestion I've heard. Is that for safety or to maximize profitability? IOW, will I make more by closing that trade to re-deploy that purchasing power in another trade to maximize theta (statistically)?
Tony, do you have any alert service , willing to pay for service, pls reply
hi, what tool are you using to draw the arrows, underline and squares etc in pink?
31:20 why is that your risk? Is it because after collecting "income" you leave the $3.34 in the stock?
Btw you DONT NEED A MARGIN account for level 3 on RH!
the spread plays become profitable after theta decay , exiting the 21 days before expiration will not able to bring a good return on credit spreads ,
45:45 Etrade (Morgan Stanley) also offer OCO
Very nice webinar. Thanks! I have a question. Rule 3 for Sustainable Growth (46:00) says to exit at 100% of max gain if losing. The example shows a $2.00 max gain. Yet the stop loss is shown as $4.00 debit. But that's twice the max gain. How is this understood? Thanks.
I think he meant 200%, so a 2x stop loss.

You receive a $2 credit for the spread, you set your stop loss at $4. If your stop loss is triggered you lose $4 - $2(Credit) = $2, which is 100% of what your maximum gain is.

Hi Tony, may I know why we need to exit 21days to expiration
You said we exit trade if we got 50% profif, that means we are not going to have max profit for every trade
I was thinking the same thing. The risk-reward at taking only 50%of the max profit (100% of the loss) does not make this a viable strategy IMO. This will not hold up. Maybe someone can explain if I am incorrect.
Can someone explain, please.
@Opp1 Trading but this doesn’t work in order to be a viable strategy
Take the trade off at 50% profit because at that point you have less than 1/2 left to collect on the table in premium but still require the full buying power. It also dramatically increases your win rate (trades hit 50% win more often than 100%)
At 21 days the trade accelerates either for you or against you - from day 45 DTE to day 21 DTE is roughly the best part of the Theta-decay curve to collect. This keeps a trade from turning from a 50% winner to perhaps a loser in the last 21 days.
My preference is $5 - $10 even $20 wide collecting 1/3 the width and Iron Condors around the .16-.30 Delta.
This guy is giving pretty good advice, I just prefer different delta. There is no free money and the best available 'edge' in options is being a net premium collector (option seller)
If you think buying cheap options and hunting 5x-10x returns, is the right play 1) good luck long term and 2) you probably have a few thousand left to pay in your option education tuition.
Can you add AR and TM to the options report (please respond for confirmation)
Gorgeous. ty.
You're welcome!
Tony, I have reviewed the video a couple of times but I am not understanding the setting an order to stop loss at $4.00 (100% of max gain) which is effectively a $2.00 loss. If max profit is $2.00, where does the $4.00 stop come from? Is this the result of the width of the spread ($5), less the 50% of the Max Gain ($1) to equal $4.00?
Why is the report not found directly in the platform?
Thanks Tony. I am new to Option Play videos. It seems interesting. Is option play platform available in Canada?

Hi Tony ,
Because you share your knowledge with others God will give you even more wisdom and blessings, thank you.
I disagree with the 1-2% in risk management for a smaller account. Those are the rules for a larger account. With a smaller account you want to risk 5% per trade and take 2 trades per week. My strategy is buying calls or puts in the S&P 500 that are under $40. Let’s say you start out with 5k, “which is what I recommend to start” you would risk 5% which is $250. You would buy as many contracts as you can with $250. That’s one trade but you are taking 2 trades per week. Then you have defined risk management by only being willing to lose half of that. So if you lose $150 on the trade, you would then exit. Profit wise you would sell half on your contracts at a price target then let the rest ride but that’s more advanced. If you really want to grow a small account into a large account, I wouldn’t go the route of credit spreads as the profit is low. I do suggest it for beginners to get a general idea but not something as a long term strategy.
I like your idea. I'll have to give it a try. Thanks
yea ik plus spreads that last 45 days is such a long time, idk if he mentioned it but for you to make the money in the trade is if the contract expires worthless.

Great educational videos. Some websites have restrictions once you are out of the states. Will optionsplay work in Ghana?
An issue with credit spread is you have to wait until the expiration date to make a profit. The timing is extremely important. i.e. to make 50% of the max reward on the spread, you will need to wait at least a week before the option expires.
That's only a cons for traders who are successful consistently more than 60% of the time and your losses are consistently small. That scenario equals never happens.
Hi Tony, as Canadian which brokerage is the best to use. I have Questrade account. Is this compaible with the Option play platform?

I am recommending you to invest with henry on youtube , this is not just a recommendation it's something i have benefited from and willing to share with others ,he is broker who has helped a lot of students and investors i made 12k first week with him you can check him out or easily reach out to him with link in my first comment
Don't you need to be prepared if assigned on the short side? You can buy back your short option before assignment but your broker still may not let you do this method unless you can cover the possible assignment. This may limit the profitability it seems unless you have a lot in your account. If I want to reduce assignment probability I would have to sell way out of the money with strike price at maybe 20% below stock price. This makes for low premiums or I guess one would have to close option positions before assignment. Looks interesting though. I will paper trade a few times for sure to see what happens.
What is pin risk?
good stuff
Thank you!
impressive presentation.... i need to watch it a few times.... i'm just selling puts and calls at this moment
Thank you!
I opened an account but don’t know where to find the credit spread file?
I know one of the cut offs is 21 days to expire, but in your experience how long are you usually sitting in these spreads before tripping a limit or stop loss?
I would really like to see one of these trades setup in TD TOS.
Opening at 45 days until expiration and closing at 21 days until expiration - The average trade length is 24 days.
These also line up nicely - the first week of the month the monthly options in the next month are 45'ish days away. The last week of the month will have these options down to near 21 days until expiration.
