If I sold a cover call to receive $0.02 in premium and I had to have $150 options buying power, my question is what happens to that buying power? Did I just spend $150 just to make $2, so does that mean my account is-148 now or does that money stay in my cash balance? I'm just trying to understand what happens to the options buying power money that you have to have in order to sell a cover call
Wow Chris nothing but Spammers promoting in the questions below..and all the replies are in the same minute.........Boot Them. Your channel is way to good to let those losers muck it up.
Question about OTM LEAPS I would like to understand the case where i buy cheep OTM options for specific Stock i believe it can reach my target price. I know that time decay will work against me all the way until the stock will be ITM. My question is that i don't care about the value of the option since i will exercice the option and get it cheeper then the market value at X time. example, I buy OTM option for 2025 - Strike $20, current price $10 - premium $0.5 i assume the price in 2025 will be for example $50, i still making money even if my LEAPS lost value due to time decay, so when i exercie i will make $30 profit - premium. Is my logic correct ? or am i missing something here ?
Chris, thanks for all your hard work with educating us on how to understand options trading and risk management. Thrilled you’re posting new videos and look forward to seeing more. It’s made a huge impact on my trading strategy and I can’t thank you enough. If I could request, would love to know which apps or excel template you use to track, analyze, and refine your options + stock trades. Happy to use any affiliate links to support the channel!
Avoid leverage at all costs unless you are buying puts, right? I'm currently waiting on a decent move down to make a lump sum purchase for my ROTH so I can bring down my averages.
Hi. When is it considered that an index has entered in the bear market territory, and when in bull? (since you mentioned 20% and the month of May). Thank you.
I agree with the diversification point but in the bear market we just had, I learned that when there is a "recession", everything dies. My portfolio was diversified into different value sectors, a smaller percentage in growth, some bonds. But everything died. So now i'm just like..will diversification really save u?
"Everything" will go down in a serious market crash but the % portfolio loss should be smaller with more diversification as opposed to 100% allocation to one thing like a tech stock or crypto. So if you owned every asset class you might like 30% but if you only have bitcoin you might be down 70% (theoretical example). Unless you were all in on the one thing that went up like XLE/energy this year vs. the S&P 500.
Entering from here? bitcoin + longest-duration at-the-money or slightly OTM BITO (bitcoin ETF) calls. If you are bullish there are lots of good opportunities to enter right now.
Hi Cris : thanks for the video . You used to buy leaps . What did you do to those positions PMCC ? Would you sell a call below the strike price of the long call as defense ? Yes , no , and why ? Thanks in advance
Yes I still have LEAPS. I didn't turn them into PMCCs. I wouldn't short a call below the strike of my long call because then I'd turn a bullish position into a bearish position and basically guarantee a loss.
@@projectfinance did you buy OTM LEAPS then? Even if they are out of the money you can still sell a CC unless the premium is a dollar. So I'm curious. I watched your PMCC video a long time ago. Great content btw.
Dude u taught me a lot about options. Much appreciated!
Glad to hear it! Thanks for watching

Avoid margin call leverage which is NOT buying options. No margin call potential buying options so you’re good 👍🏻
My opinion is bear markets over, bottom is in, be bull and get rich
Agreed
Opinions are worthless. Watch the price action
@@luisdetomaso867 my opinion is based on the price action. Happy now? :D
@@zo9fg Recent price action is definitely bullish, but it has not yet confirmed that the bear market is "over". Your opinion is premature
😂
hi Cris this is Weslei , how are you ? Do you have any couse or private class. Thanks
