    Thanks for the down-to-earth information. I got out of trading due to a loss on a position I based on poor analysis of the underlying's technical and charting. I was sure QQQ would not exceed a previous high and lost $750 on a bearish call credit spread. I will look for trades that have less defined risk and start trading more often. I will use RSI and better charting to make sure I am not trading against a trend line.

    to even be allowed to trade options with any US retail brokerage a margin is required so the account just became larger, only exception to margin is if one owns the underlying - then covered calls are allowed

    • @Malc4dead
      @Malc4dead 7 лет назад +1

      I agree, it doesn't look as though a beginner would be able to trade simple vertical spreads or say, the iron condor; as they limit you to covered calls, and at best buying calls/puts, and straddles. I would think being allowed to sell a call and buy a call (as protection) to form a spread would be safer than just buying a bare put/call, at least over a good sample of trades.

    • @tastyliveshow
      @tastyliveshow  7 лет назад +1

      Bubba,
      With some brokerages you can get approval to trade spreads, even if you don't have a lot of capital. That means selling spreads, buying spreads, etc.

    • @tastyliveshow
      @tastyliveshow  7 лет назад +1

      Yes that is definitely a defined risk example, and allowable by a lot of brokerage firms if you have the approval to do so.

    • @bubba1984
      @bubba1984 7 лет назад

      Sure, with very little capital one can do it but ANY brokerage will force you to have a margin account; it doesn't mean you will tap into the margin if all goes well but if it doesn't the brokerage will automatically allocate margin purchasing power and then the clock starts (interest, exposure to margin call, etc). My point (a very disappointing truth if I might add) is that no brokerage will allow one to trade spreads without a margin account even though one may never need any margin funding.

    Hi Mike - I'm getting my teeth into options after trading outright futures directionally. I'm looking to focus on a strategy that's delta neutral in low IV environments as when the Vixx is up, my attention really focuses on my futures strategies. I'd really like to hear your opinion on what strategies may suit low IV environments that are credit collecting. Thanks a lot! Oliver

    • @tastyliveshow
      @tastyliveshow  7 лет назад +3

      It's really hard to say - I don't prefer to sell premium in low IV, even though low IV implies less stock movement. Our credit is lower, and we have to get much closer to the stock price generally, so I honestly keep a lot of cash on the sidelines and just wait for better opportunities. I prefer diagonal spreads and calendar spreads in low IV, as those take advantage of an increase in IV.

    i understand cutting loses with penny stocks but with options if it isn't performing well wouldn't you just let the option expire?

    • @Ellieakacija
      @Ellieakacija 7 лет назад +1

      Not if you're net selling options; you don't want your options to be excercised at expiration, especially naked puts. For debit spreads and other limited risk strategies, you can let it expire, and is probably the best thing you can do, because sometimes near the very end of expiration, the stock could move in your favour and you can still make a profit from rise in premium value.

    Do You think the "wheel" strategy is good for small accounts?

    • @tastyliveshow
      @tastyliveshow  4 года назад +1

      Since it calls for undefined risk, a smaller account may need to choose smaller priced stocks that still have a liquid options market. This is more rare than higher priced, household name stocks.

  • @stevenpeterson8753
    @stevenpeterson8753 5 лет назад

    Thanks for the video. On a Long Put, you said that if you get exercised and you don't own the shares, you will be "short 100 shares". What does this mean exactly?

    • @tastyliveshow
      @tastyliveshow  5 лет назад +4

      A put gives the owner the right to sell 100 shares of stock at the strike price. If you don't already own 100 shares, the contract would still execute, so you'd go from 0 shares to -100 shares. If you owned 100 shares of stock and owned a put, the contract would execute and you would go from 100 shares to 0 shares.
      I hope this helps!

    Trading options can be a very lucrative buisness and it should be treated like a buisness ...they are not investments but vehicles to trade stocks...1 thing that should be mentioned is that all though selling puts is a great way to enter a trade it is basically a long position and if the underlying stock does not advance you will not have a winning trade.. also your account will be charged the total cost of the stock purchase at the time you sell that put option diminishing your buying power immediately...

    • @tastyliveshow
      @tastyliveshow  5 лет назад

      This is a good viewpoint to have - it should be treated like a business, as we are taking undefined risk and need to take care with that.
      A short put option does benefit most from a bullish movement in the stock, but it will be profitable at expiration as long as it is out of the money - that means the stock can stay the same, go down a little bit, whatever, as long as the option stays OTM. The strike chosen will change the range in which we can be successful.
      In an IRA/cash account, you would have to put up the full value of the stock when selling a put. In these cases we typically go far OTM and purchase a put to create a wide spread and reduce our BPR dramatically - in a margin account, we get relief on this buying power, and typically put up around 20% of the strike price, unless the broker requires more to be taken.
