it’s also worth it to mention that a lot of those people who don’t understand it WILL understand it after they do it a few times. maybe taking action and spending $20 on an option & losing their money is worth it, if they understand more next time. kind of a “learn by doing” approach
Yes!!! Big yes!!! I understand what I understand about stocks and options because I actually invested my time and money to begin with. I played around with the demo accounts and it was nowhere near the same experience and understanding as investing and trading live. I understand I need to know the thetas and such when I am ready to invest $1000s...it isn't worth the risk otherwise. I am just now mastering the candlesticks. Year 2. Helped me understand buying and selling coins also. 🤷🏾
I would love to have a trade turn against me & it only cost $20 to learn my lesson 😂 Bare minimum, you need an options calculator with Greeks & IV so that you can observe how your position behaves over time with changing volatility. Without that, you don’t even have an accurate understanding of your actual risk. Understanding DELTA and THETA are for entry-level traders. Understanding GAMMA & VEGA are advanced concepts. If you’ve got all that & understand RHO, congrats-you have enough insight to trade options with some degree of confidence.
Keep a eye on Greeks only on expiry otherwise it is fine. Don't make your trade complicated. Its a great topic to make a reel but not all reels will help. 🐺
True...there is no need to check the i.v , delta and theta Values for every 5 mins or so...but if you are a option buyer, keeping an eye on Greeks especially on expiry days helps us.
@@gorthichaitanyagorthichait7601exactly. I’ve been trading options for 3 years and the theta and delta tells me everything I need to know before I decide to purchase
It’s not complicated to understand what you are buying. I’m sure you don’t have the experience that you have seen before both CALL & PUT are in red due to the IV.

The most important thing that should be on everyone mind currently should be to invest in different sources of income that doesn't depend on the government. Especially with the current economic crisis around the word. This is still a good time to invest in various stocks, Gold, silver and digital currencies
The key to big returns is not big moving stocks. It's managing risk in relationship to reward. Having the correct size on and turning your edge as many times as necessary to reach your goal. That holds true from long term investing to day trading.
Even with the right technique and assets some investors would still make more than others, as an investor, you should’ve known that by now, nothing beats experience and that’s final, personally I had to reach out to a market analyst for guidance which is how I was able to grow my account close to a million, withdraw my profit right before the correction and now I’m buying again

He’s annoying he’s the one of those geeky guys that just wants to try to make others feel less smart when what he said doesn’t matter because the goal is to sell it anyway
I keep it simple, I buy calls when I’m looking for a move up, puts when I’m looking for a drop. If you go with event based driven moves, be it economic news, company events, fed speak, or other events you have a better chance of the trade going in your direction. Also trade with the trend. Trading just to be trading with break both your financial and mental capital. Point being, trade with some catalyst.
Implied Volatility is a process of trading happening at once for that strike price. Basically in simple terms the higher the IV the faster itll become valuable, less IV means its not in demand so its slowly losing its value.
Buying options is a lottery ticket. I sell options in /es so I’m trading the sp500 . I get paid every time I sell options. If you have a small account you can sell spreads so your max loss is the amount between the sold put and bought put.
There is a lot too learn but he is 100% correct. That is why you see a lot of people put a call or a put before earnings and the stock will move in the right direction but the options is flat. Why? Because volatility increased the price of options so as earning approaches vol will usually rise cause people are expecting a larger than normal... Once the earring are out and known all of the vol comes out and bingo you lose. Another thing people often do that is dangerous is selling options close to expiration. Yes, you have Theta decay on your side but have massive gamma risk... in the last week or few days leading up to expiration you are better off buying options than selling. Have you ever seen an option go from like $o5 to $20 in the last day or two, o the short side of that move. Delta is good to understand too. it is basically how much an option's price can be expected to move for every $1 change in the price of the underlyig security. so, if you have a delta of .2 you will move .$.20 for every dollar move in the stock. Anyway there is a lot to learn.
I can trade options without the IV, theta or gamma or Vega and even without delta and be fine…. Price of straddle is all I really use to make decisions
@@tvrqsebeats5693 My trading revolves around selling premium. The options Greeks come out of the options pricing. They don’t dictate the options pricing. The market (buyers and sellers) are what dictates any pricing. If we can assume pricing is efficient because of market participants. Then the seller of the option we can assume isn’t some idiot that’s going to give you a free lottery ticket without getting paid. If you’re okay with that logic, then the atm straddle will show you what a 1 standard deviation on the stock/etf/index is at that point in time. 1SD is equivalent to 16 delta… If you’re selling premium on say SPY. And you sell an iron condor for a credit outside of that move then you’ll be correct a lot. If you manage the risk (take losers) before they become full losers then you’ll have a positive EV strategy. For more info find me on LinkedIn and message me and I can do a consult and show my account and what I do.
Check it: it works like this- grab a pair of dice, shake them up vigorously and toss them across the table while calling out what numbers they're going to land on.
@@samfkt Trading futures market versus options trading market is in futures trading market you never deal with IV and Greeks. Also you don’t deal the pattern day trading rule. Futures you can enter and close as much trades as your want as long as your balance is allowed up to. You have $150 to $1000 balance and enter and close 100 to 1000 of trades just as long as don’t blow your account 😅 If you have plenty of money to trade I recommend to open a futures account. Just look up RUclips video about the futures market so you can get started. I am futures and forex prop firm trader. There are many ways to get started with trading futures market. Best recommendation is to start your own personal account but if you are tight with funds and want to get started you should look into 2 prop firms and those are FTT ( Fast Track Trading ) and Topstep. There are others but just do your research and I also post reviews on my RUclips channel. I do have 1 video having proof of my payout from Topstep. I will be posting more videos about the futures market to help new traders and traders that are looking for a better solution to rather than trading options. Anyways sorry to ramble on. I just like to be very informative!
As long as you understand depreciation and are trading with the expiration date in mind, the Greeks aren’t super important, honestly more difficult to study and understand then I thought they were really worth considering the expiration date is basically all you need
@@elizabeths2677they don’t really matter at all if price is moving in the right direction and the expiration date is far off. It only matters when the option is close to expiring otherwise there’s no need to worry about it. You don’t need to understand it in depth to make a good trade at all
Pretty much me in this case. I don't know what I'm looking at even after studying, it's very confusing and that plays into my gambling mindset instead of having no emotions.
Called practice m8 … just dip your toes and move forward … don’t put a giant chunk of your portfolio… I’ve made 4k (gotten lucky) in the last 2 months messing with options … just don’t get stuck in analysis paralysis
I really appreciate your efforts! Just a quick off-topic question: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How can I transfer them to Binance?
Studies show buying doesn’t pay off only selling options does. I think it’s because of volatility. Up is slow but downside goes quick so opposite side of trend when get a good option pay out. Basically have to call the top or bottom or have it happen within your time frame to make money. I’ve seen mine stay flat even when market rips because too deep into theta and premium was past fulcrum point. Must exit half way to expiration. Too many things go into them and I don’t like calling tops or bottoms without seeing it print first and by then options are too expensive to pay out well. I think this is why odte is most popular now because get in and out quickly at inflection points. If get it right they pay good. Or you can just trade es or nq and scale in with small positions on micros. That’s the only way to change traders equation but it must be done within 3 trades and sized correctly for account.
@@andrewavila4433 tasty trade ran it through their team and after assessment they only made on offset options. And selling was always more profitable than buying because premium peaks when reversals happen so buying a option opposite way of market is cheap.
I show people the right way to trade options!! Options are an amazing tool and give you so much leverage. Learn what the institutions know and you won’t be saying don’t trade options. You’ll just wish you knew what they know sooner
i learn late when i don’t have money just simple is if market open any price and goes to higher then you have to wait until price drop the same when market is open that same price buy it from low sell it from high
i understand fm my frenz that they buy options simply coz they think they need lesser $ to put more shares, they dont know abt the IVs, gammas, deltas and couldnt be bothered w the expiry date
I started with 12k and now currently at 40k. It a wild ride but to come on top, win more than you lose. Biggest win is 6k and largest loss is 8k. Be careful ya. Edit-I’m now down to 20k. Lost 20k of my profit
lol just look at delta, volume and IV when buying. i usually go for 10 days out till expiry date when in confirmed uptrend. Obviously you sell way before expiration date
All the comments that are de-estimating the crucial of understanding the greeks before buying the contracts are not a real traders, trust me. They have never experienced to see both Calls & Puts in a bloodbath due to the IV though your stock is moving with your TA direction.
This right here! It’s crazy because from what I’ve read in the comments so far, it seems more than 90% of the commenters are saying the Greeks don’t matter. Crazy af.
Do u have a video explaining it and how to be profitable consistently? I’ve done stocks and make trades off percentages and love it I made 150% in 6 months and and older friend just showed me he makes that same percentage in a day? How do we look at it? Please respond with links or explanations no unrelated comments guys I’m serious on the subject so serious answers from people with profitable experience please 🙏🏻
Buy low IV, sell high IV, get near or at money strikes at least a .03 delta, get enough time/for theta based on scalp/day/or swing trading. Don’t worry about Rho that shit useless. Most important to understand theta, delta and Vega/IV, but once you trade option contracts awhile you will understand how they move based on your entry/exit targets on a chart. You can trade 0DTE on SPX for example as long as you have clean entries. And make 25%-100% easy if you are a TA god.
Excelent! You are very smart. No reason to rush in. Take your time ad learn learn learn. Prove your stratagey in a simulator and slowly transition over to risking real money. Good luck! But you won't need luck if you remain patient.
I understand the Greeks besides the upside of volatility, explosive movement on returns positive and negative it took me a while to care to learn and my first year +2000 percent. focus more on researching stocks and making the RIGHT decisions….Actors don’t need to be experts on cameras, singers don’t need to be experts on mics and etc. The craft is position sizing,fundamentals, and technicals, the problem is the 95% who lose long term over complicate this career.

Not many will tell you but buying long options is best for beginners because the amount you can lose is limited to what you purchased the contract for unlike buying stocks with 10x amount capital and waking up to a 50% down profile because of poor money management as a beginner. The trick is just knowing when to buy the contracts and which contracts to buy depending on your horizon. Stay far away from weeklies and monthlies and you will do fine.
I don't fully get the greeks. I only know had theta is related to how much time is left till expiration and IV is how dynamic the share price is. Delta I don't know; I think it's how close it is to strike or breakeven. I'm currently in profit. Learning as I go. You don't have to know all the greeks. Might be good to know, but if you know too much, you might skip out on a good opportunity out of fear or ignore your own intuition or common sense because the numbers are right. I'll learn the rest of the greeks once I lose big on options
Simple like driving a car. Most driver don't know how engine works but are good drivers. Most trades don't go much into technicals at first. But just like driving with experience they will understand how it works else they go bankrupt.
Tbh the only Greek you need to know for options is Theta. That will tell you how quickly the contract is decaying. But, with that being said, the only time you need to worry about theta decay is on 0 DTE’s (Day to expiration)
Also, trade ITM (in the money) or ATM (at the money) contracts. This means the contract strike price is at the underlying stock price (ATM) or passed the strike price (ITM).
I don’t understand options and don’t care to trade it ever, I love just trading shares and selling them anytime of the day without having to stress out about decay or any of the bs that comes with options. Keep it simple and make more money bc options traders are basically the gamblers that always end up losing everything they won. They are legit gamblers
You make more money trading options than the stock itself, while using less money and you'll only lose as much as what you put in. The PDT rules don't apply to options compared to trading stocks, making it more accessible for people to build wealth and participate in the market. It's not for lazy people or gamblers thinking they're gonna make a quick buck if they don't understand options
@@CodElevatorWhat are you talking about PDT rule applies to options trading but doesn’t apply if someone has more than 25k than they can buy and sell as much options contracts as they like. If traders are starting off trading options is okay start. New traders need to look into futures trading. Trading futures is the best options for new traders!
Been making money with options for awhile now it’s my ftj and I’ve never looked at the Greeks I know what they are but you can make money and not ever use them what’s this guy talking about?
I wasted 4L and 3 years of time in option buying. Option selling works but not on intraday. What works better is intraday equity or intraday equity futures. I stopped option buying for last 2 months.

If you’re okay with that logic, then the atm straddle will show you what a 1 standard deviation on the stock/etf/index is at that point in time. 1SD is equivalent to 16 delta…
If you’re selling premium on say SPY. And you sell an iron condor for a credit outside of that move then you’ll be correct a lot. If you manage the risk (take losers) before they become full losers then you’ll have a positive EV strategy.

this is definitely superb! think you could suggest any professional/advisors i can get on the phone with??
Yes grahamconsults
Not surprised to see you mention graham. I'm in my fifth trade now. Good trading strategies

Check it: it works like this- grab a pair of dice, shake them up vigorously and toss them across the table while calling out what numbers they're going to land on.
That’s why trading in the money is the only way!
Agreed and atleast a 90 delta!
The only way is trading futures! Futures trading is king!
@@tradedailywithsebwhy exactly? Any examples?
@@samfkt Trading futures market versus options trading market is in futures trading market you never deal with IV and Greeks. Also you don’t deal the pattern day trading rule. Futures you can enter and close as much trades as your want as long as your balance is allowed up to. You have $150 to $1000 balance and enter and close 100 to 1000 of trades just as long as don’t blow your account 😅 If you have plenty of money to trade I recommend to open a futures account. Just look up RUclips video about the futures market so you can get started. I am futures and forex prop firm trader. There are many ways to get started with trading futures market. Best recommendation is to start your own personal account but if you are tight with funds and want to get started you should look into 2 prop firms and those are FTT ( Fast Track Trading ) and Topstep. There are others but just do your research and I also post reviews on my RUclips channel. I do have 1 video having proof of my payout from Topstep. I will be posting more videos about the futures market to help new traders and traders that are looking for a better solution to rather than trading options. Anyways sorry to ramble on. I just like to be very informative!
Its like strumming a guitar and asking why it doesn't sound melodic.
There is also called , strike price OTM, ITM, & ATM !
As long as you understand depreciation and are trading with the expiration date in mind, the Greeks aren’t super important, honestly more difficult to study and understand then I thought they were really worth considering the expiration date is basically all you need
The delta is basically the probability of being correct and the theta is basically how much money per day you lose on the contract
@@Haddonfield63literally this! The Greeks are highly important! A ton of ppl making ignorant comments that the Greeks don’t matter. 😂😂😂
@@elizabeths2677they don’t really matter at all if price is moving in the right direction and the expiration date is far off. It only matters when the option is close to expiring otherwise there’s no need to worry about it. You don’t need to understand it in depth to make a good trade at all
What a great teacher.
You don’t need Greeks if you understand premium and your levels
How so?
Pretty much me in this case. I don't know what I'm looking at even after studying, it's very confusing and that plays into my gambling mindset instead of having no emotions.
Called practice m8 … just dip your toes and move forward … don’t put a giant chunk of your portfolio… I’ve made 4k (gotten lucky) in the last 2 months messing with options … just don’t get stuck in analysis paralysis
All the reason to trade Futures. I decided to trade Futures because of the organic direct price action. The SPY and E-Minis are great vehicles.
I really appreciate your efforts! Just a quick off-topic question: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How can I transfer them to Binance?
This is why I don’t mess around with it. Just kills me knowing I could make more though
Because people love to gamble them 😂
Sir,Please make a video in option Greek. We want to learn this
Its like a donation to an organization which don't get u good deeds nor it will lower yearly tax😂
this is truth! we expect to make money with trading without training for years on it!🤣 Hi from Greece!
I wanted to earn money. Thats why. Trail & error that's how. That's the explanation.
Well said! 🙌
Well those IV and those Greeks can change very fast during the day .... Especially for 0dte
Studies show buying doesn’t pay off only selling options does. I think it’s because of volatility. Up is slow but downside goes quick so opposite side of trend when get a good option pay out. Basically have to call the top or bottom or have it happen within your time frame to make money. I’ve seen mine stay flat even when market rips because too deep into theta and premium was past fulcrum point. Must exit half way to expiration. Too many things go into them and I don’t like calling tops or bottoms without seeing it print first and by then options are too expensive to pay out well. I think this is why odte is most popular now because get in and out quickly at inflection points. If get it right they pay good. Or you can just trade es or nq and scale in with small positions on micros. That’s the only way to change traders equation but it must be done within 3 trades and sized correctly for account.
What studies bro
@@andrewavila4433 tasty trade ran it through their team and after assessment they only made on offset options. And selling was always more profitable than buying because premium peaks when reversals happen so buying a option opposite way of market is cheap.
I show people the right way to trade options!! Options are an amazing tool and give you so much leverage. Learn what the institutions know and you won’t be saying don’t trade options. You’ll just wish you knew what they know sooner
Proudly giving donations to market
Exactly. I lurk wsb and people comment how they just bought some way OTM contracts for $5/each. You're literally donating your money
That's why I've never touched options. Because I don't understand it!
It's rigged all leverage and etns are
good advice bro
Day trading stock options is high risk and comes with high rewards if you trade it correctly to minimise the risk.
just like you did when you started! trial and error!
All I look at is the theta and the delta. Tells me everything I need to know as far as the contract goes
Could you give an example
Find the next resistance level and start pricing options from that level. Try not to buy options beyond that resistance
This guy really great trader! inspiration for swing trader!
i learn late when i don’t have money just simple is if market open any price and goes to higher then you have to wait until price drop the same when market is open that same price buy it from low sell it from high
i understand fm my frenz that they buy options simply coz they think they need lesser $ to put more shares, they dont know abt the IVs, gammas, deltas and couldnt be bothered w the expiry date
In the process of learning now
Me too. We will be good
All I know that matters is how close are you to your strike price and how much time you have left before expiration
just trade the option on the idea of exercising it
I started with 12k and now currently at 40k. It a wild ride but to come on top, win more than you lose. Biggest win is 6k and largest loss is 8k. Be careful ya.
Edit-I’m now down to 20k. Lost 20k of my profit
Are you selling options or buying options?
FOR HOW LONG YOU GOT THAT GAMBLE PERFORMANCE??? Tell me
Did you set any aside for taxes?
lol just look at delta, volume and IV when buying. i usually go for 10 days out till expiry date when in confirmed uptrend. Obviously you sell way before expiration date
All the comments that are de-estimating the crucial of understanding the greeks before buying the contracts are not a real traders, trust me. They have never experienced to see both Calls & Puts in a bloodbath due to the IV though your stock is moving with your TA direction.
This right here! It’s crazy because from what I’ve read in the comments so far, it seems more than 90% of the commenters are saying the Greeks don’t matter. Crazy af.
They only matter on short time frame trades that are close to expiration. They don’t matter at all if your expiration date is weeks or months out
@@MomoTheDisciple Not true
Do u have a video explaining it and how to be profitable consistently? I’ve done stocks and make trades off percentages and love it I made 150% in 6 months and and older friend just showed me he makes that same percentage in a day? How do we look at it? Please respond with links or explanations no unrelated comments guys I’m serious on the subject so serious answers from people with profitable experience please 🙏🏻
Did you get any answer? Please share if you did
People play instruments all the time without knowing how to use them. It is only through trial and error and practice that one can achieve success.
Buy low IV, sell high IV, get near or at money strikes at least a .03 delta, get enough time/for theta based on scalp/day/or swing trading. Don’t worry about Rho that shit useless. Most important to understand theta, delta and Vega/IV, but once you trade option contracts awhile you will understand how they move based on your entry/exit targets on a chart. You can trade 0DTE on SPX for example as long as you have clean entries. And make 25%-100% easy if you are a TA god.
Not traded it yet learning for 3 months
Excelent! You are very smart. No reason to rush in. Take your time ad learn learn learn. Prove your stratagey in a simulator and slowly transition over to risking real money. Good luck! But you won't need luck if you remain patient.
@yourname4278 have you every looked into futures trading? Futures trading is way better than options trading
I understand the Greeks besides the upside of volatility, explosive movement on returns positive and negative it took me a while to care to learn and my first year +2000 percent. focus more on researching stocks and making the RIGHT decisions….Actors don’t need to be experts on cameras, singers don’t need to be experts on mics and etc. The craft is position sizing,fundamentals, and technicals, the problem is the 95% who lose long term over complicate this career.
Appreciate the detailed breakdown! Just a quick off-topic question: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (air carpet target dish off jeans toilet sweet piano spoil fruit essay). How can I transfer them to Binance?

He is basically saying to get educated about whichever market you want to trade in.
I’m pretty much just putting money into the slot machine and hoping for the best 🤞🤞
I started with options, now I trade forex and I like the simplicity
Not many will tell you but buying long options is best for beginners because the amount you can lose is limited to what you purchased the contract for unlike buying stocks with 10x amount capital and waking up to a 50% down profile because of poor money management as a beginner. The trick is just knowing when to buy the contracts and which contracts to buy depending on your horizon. Stay far away from weeklies and monthlies and you will do fine.
Any suggestion for knock outs/open end and similar?
This is why I still looking for explanation of using the gear… where to get it all ?
I don't fully get the greeks. I only know had theta is related to how much time is left till expiration and IV is how dynamic the share price is. Delta I don't know; I think it's how close it is to strike or breakeven. I'm currently in profit. Learning as I go. You don't have to know all the greeks. Might be good to know, but if you know too much, you might skip out on a good opportunity out of fear or ignore your own intuition or common sense because the numbers are right. I'll learn the rest of the greeks once I lose big on options

give me that lamb over rice boss
Simple like driving a car. Most driver don't know how engine works but are good drivers. Most trades don't go much into technicals at first. But just like driving with experience they will understand how it works else they go bankrupt.
Tbh the only Greek you need to know for options is Theta. That will tell you how quickly the contract is decaying. But, with that being said, the only time you need to worry about theta decay is on 0 DTE’s (Day to expiration)
Also, trade ITM (in the money) or ATM (at the money) contracts. This means the contract strike price is at the underlying stock price (ATM) or passed the strike price (ITM).
I have never seen a video with so much value, thank you for the free value
The same everyone starts out trading? Even yourself
I loved the part where he explained how it worked
have a small understanding of how they work and still trade just fine
Thats all he understands iv he knows nithing but words
If people would only trade what they understand, a lot of banks, asset managers and brokers would be out of work.
Ive never even heard of o
'Option greeks' lol
then you don’t trade options and aren’t profitable LOL
Can you make a video on Delta Neutral Intraday Strategy
I didn’t know I didn’t learn till i tried
I'm pretty sure he had to learn it as well.
POV: Your friend just found out about Greeks.
Bro trying to sell ya his 1200 course. 😂
I don’t understand options and don’t care to trade it ever, I love just trading shares and selling them anytime of the day without having to stress out about decay or any of the bs that comes with options. Keep it simple and make more money bc options traders are basically the gamblers that always end up losing everything they won. They are legit gamblers
Facts . You stick w/ LTI’s ?
You make more money trading options than the stock itself, while using less money and you'll only lose as much as what you put in.
The PDT rules don't apply to options compared to trading stocks, making it more accessible for people to build wealth and participate in the market.
It's not for lazy people or gamblers thinking they're gonna make a quick buck if they don't understand options
@@CodElevatorWhat are you talking about PDT rule applies to options trading but doesn’t apply if someone has more than 25k than they can buy and sell as much options contracts as they like. If traders are starting off trading options is okay start. New traders need to look into futures trading. Trading futures is the best options for new traders!
Been making money with options for awhile now it’s my ftj and I’ve never looked at the Greeks I know what they are but you can make money and not ever use them what’s this guy talking about?
Greeks mostly matter near options expiration and if you’re holding overnight. Greeks are trying to make your positions expire at zero, so watch out.
Do you understand black scholes? Highly doubt it
The more you know the slower your portfolio grows YOLO
Because an influencer supposedly making millions told them so.
Which interview is this one. Where can I find the complete interview?
😂 you guys always make simple shit seem like it’s rocket science.
We all start some where failer is the best teacher
I wasted 4L and 3 years of time in option buying. Option selling works but not on intraday. What works better is intraday equity or intraday equity futures. I stopped option buying for last 2 months.
Please explain to us how???😂
