    Vega is all about changes in Implied Volatility % As a trader, do you try to avoid volatility or do you seek it out trying to use it in your favor?

      Selling volatility is a great way to collect premium when selling options!

      So if bullish on a specific underlying and thus selling puts, would one look for high IV and high Vega?

      @@chewie1355 Correct, a High Vega will mean more extrinsic option value and higher premiums.

    Great Advice man!
    Tell me where I going wrong.
    VIX on selling weekly options: (SPY, IWM, DIA, and QQQ) -> avoiding single stock risk.
    12 - 15 (Low IV) : Sell Verticals, covered calls, and sell iron condors. (collect 90% - 100% of premium)
    15 - 19 (Medium IV) :Sell Verticals, covered calls, and sell iron condors. (collect 90% - 100% of premium)
    20 - 25 (High IV): Sell Verticals, covered calls, and sell iron condors. (collect 90% - 100% of premium)
    25 - 30 (High IV):
    30 IV and above stay out the market.

      I mean, there isn't anything categorically wrong with that strategy. But when IV is low, selling options is not very lucrative. The traditional logic is to buy options (long calls, long verticals etc.) when volatility is low because, those options are comparatively inexpensive. And if volatility increases from the low VIX, then your long options will gain Vega value. I understand avoiding high IV markets, but a lot of money can be made with the right strategies in high volatility markets.

    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.

    • @investingforthecommonman4533

      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.

    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?

    where did the 12% number come from?

    • @investingforthecommonman4533
      @investingforthecommonman4533  3 года назад

      12% was the difference between the IV% for the options contracts expiring before and after the company reported earnings. (61.13%-49.35%) Theoretically, after a high volatility event like an earnings report, Implied volatility will return to normal levels. Most people refer to this as IV crush.
