I heard option is more risky than Futures! I future trade and it is still quite fast paced and somewhat risky! Option seems to be next level riskiness level!

Well... the only problem with using GameStop as an example is that it is one of those rare internet trades that actually made a ton of money for retail investors, and destroyed a number of large private traders who had been shorting the stock and got squeezed for billions. That particular action was not a pump and dump, it was a "we're going to force a short squeeze and take some large over-leveraged traders to the slaughterhouse", in public, on the internet. And they did it. Twice in fact. And now maybe even a third time. Robinhood, on the other-hand, is the ultimate stupid-consumer bait. It wasn't promoting trading for the masses... you could already do that on any number of platforms. It was promoting fast, repeated trading by offering 'free' trades. They make money by selling those retail trading streams to large trading houses to sniff and front-run. Death of a thousand cuts. Their platform definitely did not have the best interests of the teeming masses at heart. If you want pump-and-dumps, shady trading practices, and mass fraud, the crypto-currency and NFT markets take the cake these days. A never ending stream of fakery, fraud, and theft. -Matt
Very well said, if you have a channel that speak on finance I'd definitely follow it. That's a good summary of what the current financial landscape is about
Market makers and hedgefunds didn't make me to trade options. I've been trading it for 7 years now. If you own growth tech stocks, especially in this environment, you should use options to hedge your portfolio 😀
Tldr: A bunch of professional gamblers want more rules "to save the common gambler" in their casino so the professional gamblers have less chance of losing money.
U.S. stock index futures were lower on Thursday as news of another COVID lockdown in China revived concerns about a slowing global economy. My primary concern is how to grow my reserve of $300k which has been sitting duck since forever with zero to no gains, sure I know the risks of short term gains are much greater but if well managed one'd make a killing, am I wrong?
I love how this video only talks about how terrible options are and that you could lose all ur money but never once talks about the exponential gain potential of options. If options were so terrible, then why are they so popular with traders?
True, but remember a lot of Wall St traders make money regardless of if they win or lose their clients money. Many also have no legal obligation whatsoever to do what's in the best interest of their clients, nor do they care about their integrity. That's how the Wall St casino always wins.
They just trying to scare retail investors options can dangerous if you’re yoloing otm options other than if you’re using charts like TradingView and getting the premium version with best indicators you’ll be good I’ve been trading options since last summer and at this point I make more a month trading them my gross take home pay from my job.
Options are a valuable instrument for insurance and leverage! Idk why CNBC claims its sooo "risky". Maybe they've read too many Reddit posts about people buying OTM option contracts with an expiration date a week from now? Just a guess lol
For every option bought, there is an option sold. For all the "dumb" money greedily buying short term options chasing big short term gains, there are INCOME investors selling those options, covered by stock to fully hedge the risk, and making a LOT more income than the dividends on the significant option premiums. There are LOTS of books and articles about trading stock options out there, so it's not like anyone has to go into the risk blindly.
watch the tastytrade videos on youtube. If you are new to options, stick to selling cash secured puts on stocks and ETFs you already want to own. It’s easier to make money by selling options because the value of options lose value with time. Your basically selling something that you hope will become worthless because options expire. Doing this won’t make you a lot of money but it’s very high probability and good for beginners.
When the market goes down then it's buying opportunity. If the market goes up then you are making money. If you stay invested and ignore the market's ups and downs, you'll make a lot of money in the long run; however, a severe market correction causes a lot of margin calls and sell-offs, driving the market even lower. currently, I'm up 13% in my diversified portfolio. As crazy as it sounds some still make enormous returns from this seemingly unknown market. gotta be greedy when others are fearful
exactly what I'm personally planning on doing now the market is down, but I have no idea about stocks to buy or what assets that would yield the highest potential and so on. Your portfolio is freaking awesome, you seem to be doing well yourself. how do you select stocks you invest in?
I have my portfolio very well-diversified, though I did it using trad signals from a US-regulated broker *PRISCILLA DIANE AIVAZIAN* financial analyst and CNBC contributor and it's been a huge relief. Good earnings and little to no engagement at all on my part. Her stock picks are top-notch, I don't worry about market trends anymore because she's quite the genius in trading and portfolio diversification
@Manuel Andrea Yeah but I don't give out funds here, It stays right in my account. I only mirror her trades in real-time that's ideal for this system. Copy trading is 100% secured and very transparent to work with her, you don't have to send any funds over. you have control over your funds and can opt-out anytime you want just like in Etoro. Check out her name online and get in touch if you need help with this insane market.
I'm MUCH more interested in buying stocks now that they are cheap. You can't just sit on cash waiting for the market to drop 10% before you start buying. The best strategy is to start buying in slowly and then gradually increase the pace of buying as the prices continue to drop. Cash isn't king at all in this era
I’m not kidding when I say that the market crash and high inflation have me really stressed out and worried about retirement. I've been in the red for a while now and although people say these crisis has it perks, I'm losing my mind but I get it Investing is a long-term game, so focus on the long run.
The market is volatile at this time, hence i will suggest you get yourself an inv-advisor/coach that can provide you with entry and exit points on the financial assets you focus on.
I'm sure the idea of a coach might sound generic or controversial to a few, but new study by investopedia found that demand for inv-coaches sky-rocketed by over 41.8% since the pandemic, and based on firsthand encounter, I can say for certain their skillsets are topnotch. I was able to raise a whooping $4.5M that set me up for a comfortable retirement after 5 years of subsequent investment. Exactly cost me $800k capital, was confident enough cos funds where in my trading account.>
I was self-managing my portfolio but suffered heavy losses in 2022 and i knew i couldn't continue like that, so i consulted a fiduciary advisor. By restructuring and diversifying my $1.2M portfolio with dividend-paying stocks, ETFs, Mutual funds and REITs, I significantly boosted my portfolio, achieving an annualized gain of 28%.

One question, please! Is NVIDIA a safe buy to outperform the market this year? I'm tired of these new buys every week, just to make up some assets with a low percentage on my $236k portfolio and try to keep everything around 10%.
I've always advised the investors I know to exercise caution when it comes to new buys, especially right now. You should thread the market with the guidance of a qualified specialist or reliable counsel if you don't know where to look.

Regulators don't really care about investors. Only keeping you poor and in the working class. If they did you would not have the PTD rule. That just locked you into a trade for a day so if a trade starts to go against you you can't get out before you lose your profits.
Yup these regulations are more counterproductive and not necessarily protective. Those who want to trade should do so if they lose they lose simple. Those who'll adapt and win will do so. Regulators do more harm than good.
When some people think of successful stock traders, they think of multimillionaires lounging in a beach town, making trades and relaxing. That reality is rare, and stock trading isn't as easy or lucrative as it might seem from the outside. Despite challenges, some people elect to stock trade as a part-time job, or they take on stock trading as their full-time gig. If you know your stuff and follow a strategy, you can make money over time through stock trades by adopting the signal of a licence broker
The best way to find that balance between saving and living is by investing. This way you get to have your saving intact and then live comfortably off the revenue coming in from your investments. Financial freedom is possible, you just need to know what to do and when to do it. I am a living testimony.
My consultant is Kathy Genelle Brittton I found her on a CNBC interview where she was featured and reached out to her afterwards. She has since provide entry and exit points on the securities I focus on. You can look her up online with her name if you care supervision. I basically follow her trade pattern and haven’t regretted doing so
I've been unsure about the market due to it's volatility, at the same time I still feel it's the right time to make profit cos of the price increase, heard someone speaking of making over $700k during this quick rise and I'm driven to ask what techniques/skillset is needed to achieve this.
The best strategy to use in trading stock is to trade with a professional who understands the market quite well, that way maximum profit is guaranteed. Because i have learnt along the way of my investment that research and analysis are important, note that experience is more needed than luck when it comes to the stock market.
Just look at PYPL and where it stands? Still in Jun2019, meaning that if you sit on PYPL, you simply wasted 3 years for no gain. I still think PYPL will eventually go back up 300 at some points, but when? That's the question you want to answer before you say "Time in the market beats timing the market". Many people are saying that, and there are some truth in it, but it's not always true.
@@Jodingowal that saying is usually implying a much longer time horizon, and historically referring to the broad market. 3 years is hardly “time in the market.” If you’re thinking in terms of horizons less than 5 years, you’re probably more of a trader than an investor, which is fine if you want to do that, but still doesn’t discredit that saying.
Institutional investors are scared now that retail investors are being exposed to all of these products because they will no longer have their edge. People are free to make their own decisions. AMC and Gamestop shares rose because of the demand. Whether or not that the price is reflecting the “true intrinsic” value is irrelevant. The market price is determined by how much someone is willing to pay, so retail investors stuck it to the man when those institutions shorted the stock. Good on them too, who says investors have to play by the rules. If they get caught with their pants down, then thats the risk they took by shorting the shares.
Very well articulated; I wish I had more time for trial and error, but I'll be 56 in October and I need ideas and advice on what investments to make to set myself up for retirement, especially with the looming inflation and recession; my goal is to have a portfolio of at least $500k at the age of 60.
The S&P500 is now trading below its 25-year average based on the price-earnings ratio. Good news for people who will be investing over the next years and decades. The cool thing about investing in the S&P 500 is that if a company starts to massively fumble, turn unprofitable, and lose market valuation, it will get booted out and replaced with a better company. All without you having to do anything.
I have saved myself from all the hassle that chaotic market causes. These days the best way to come into the market space is reading, studying, patience and seeking guidance when necessary, due to my line of work i can’t handle my portfolio so i just copy the trades of ‘’Theresa Mary Chamblee" a CFA i saw on Bloomberg business news. It’s been smooth since then.

Managing money is different from accumulating wealth, and the lack of investment education in schools may explain why people struggle to maintain their financial gains. The examples you provided are relevant, and I personally benefited from the market crisis, as I embrace challenging times while others tend to avoid them. Well, at least my advisor does too, jokingly.
Investors should exercise caution with their exposure and exercise caution when considering new investments, particularly during periods of inflation. It is advisable to seek guidance from a professional or trusted advisor in order to navigate this recession and achieve potential high yields.
This is superb! Information, as a noob it gets quite difficult to handle all of this and staying informed is a major cause, how do you go about this are you a pro investor?
Through closely monitoring the performance of my portfolio, I have witnessed a remarkable growth of $483k in just the past two quarters. This experience has shed light on why experienced traders are able to generate substantial returns even in lesser-known markets. It is safe to say that this bold decision has been one of the most impactful choices I have made recently.
One of CNBC's best this year. Tips for the newbies; In your quest to make money through stocks, remember to spread your investments locally and Internationally. The market is a zero sum game and you could potentially lose all. Always make correct inquiries before putting your money somewhere or better still, get the services of a pro(that way, you give little room for error). Made my first million earlier this year this way. Good luck!
Very sound and pragmatic. I have been into this for long and though I won't say I have lost a fortune, but I have squandered quite a lot. If it's not a problem, do you mind recommending the pro you worked with? I could definitely use the help of one right now... I look forward to your reply...

My advice for investing priority: 1) Real Estate 2) Tech ETFs 3) Company's you believe in long term . Options are no different from gambling in the casino
@Beta Weighted Betting on whether a stock is going to go up or down based on some "catalysts" isn't gambling to a certain degree? Nobody in the world knows what stock will go up or down unless you have insider information, so with that degree of uncertainty you buying calls or puts is exactly what gambling is. As someone who's made over 50k in 2020 over options and subsequently lost half my profits this year alone, i think i know what options trading is
We are already in the big crash, Inflation is a catastrophe. This CPI report is a colossal failure. To bring the housing market to a halt, the FED will have to pull all the stops. The unfortunate issue is that other markets are being decimated.If you want to stay green, you have to rely on a lot of diversification. Currently up 14% and being careful. Still a better deal than leaving it in a savings or checking account yielding 0-1 percent interest.
People believe their currency has the worth it does because they have no other option. Even in a hyperinflationary environment, individuals must continue to use their hyperinflationary currency since they likely have minimal access to other currencies or gold/silver coins.

@@layhosik - Right, we're shills because we happen to disagree with your take. I'm a retail investor, most people here are, and while I chose not to participate in the meme stocks, I did pay attention to the ongoing discussions in reddit. Whether it was organized or not, it most certainly was a coordinated effort revolving around a few stocks by a group of retail investors.
What I would do is taper the amount that can be risked with options, on any account that hasn't seen option trading before. Like $100 the first month; $200 the second month; $400 the third month, etc. Also, Pattern Day Trading rules clearly, CLEARLY are what drive most poorer people into options trading - this includes myself when I first started. Pattern Day Trading rules make zero sense, do not protect, and clearly harm. Abolish them. Some rules are appropriate with options to protect traders, but they need to be good ones.
Thanks so much for this video, I'm nearly 32 trying to understand the market, I spent about 8 hours just on this video, taking notes and trying to get at least beginners knowledge, and I have to say that out of all the videos I watched, this one helped the most. Thanks again
having professional mentor is also very important when it comes to trading, without proper mentorship, one trend to opt out of the market early enough. I do my investment with mrs Stacy Griffin
@Betsy Schwartz I don't really know about that, but I think There is really no country restrictions in her company...I'm investing with her from Switzerland
Great video really. also i agree with your opinion, For the newbie if you are actually trading in the crypto space and you don't have a sound mentor. Then you are certainly going to get liquidated in 90% of your trades. Yeah that's the sad truth. For a start you need a good and experienced hand to guide you. Trust me, trading isn't difficult as we see it. With the right information and guide, you can earn hugely monthly.
You're right! I have lost a lot trading all by myself without a guide. It's been an uneasy ride for me. Who is your mentor please. I actually don't mind paying.
@@reyansh437 That's sad. i totally understand. i actually lost too at the early stage and then i had someone to manage my account and i watched his strategy and how he does it. Anthony Kulan has been my mentor and i trade using his daily signals
First understanding the financial market and how it works then you need to know how to study the market charts. That's all you stand to get when you start trading with Anthony. he's highly recommendable.
8:23 Alright, so you’re telling me that the closer in the money option @$925 ($27) costs less than the further out of the money contract @$1000 ($30) Great example 👍
The higher profit probability for 925 call has a lower $27 price due to collecting the premium from selling the 1000 call (2nd leg of the option spread). Good example to illustrate the basic idea of trying to improve odds for making money on every trade.
Options are designed to offset risk, this video is flat out wrong. I’m sorry people actually believe this… if you don’t understand options, don’t make a video about it and second: don’t believe it!!!
Main problem, trading in general is very rosy regardless of options trading or stock trading. From my experience the options trading is the most rigged as you have no control and you are betting against a volatile item. It can also be noted that even though the experts have a leg up, it can be said that 95% of traders including experts have a bad trade. (FYI some of them have degrees which benefit them yet still fail)
What are you even on about? Rigged? No control? Betting against a volatile item? Literally just don't buy short term expiries, far OTM, or dabble with illiquid options. Already following those rules will limit your risk greatly. Then if you actually make your decisions based on fundamentals rather than based on hopium, you'll most likely end up in profit.
It's because of wage supression making it difficult for young people to get ahead and make good money. Wages have stagnated for years, so no wonder they are making risky financial choices to try to get the same standard of living their parents had.
That certainly hasn't been true over the last year. Also heavily dependent on the field you work in, it is very much a tale of two different economies.
With the way the market is moving, we'll mostly hold for longer than 2030 to realize profit gain, I think a video on "How to profit from the present market" will be more effective, I mean I've heard of people making upto 250K within few months and I'd like to know how.
Not true. Sell a 50 strike call for $4, now what happens if the stock goes to $70 and you get exercised? You will need to go buy the shares at $70 to cover the calls you sold and lose way more than the $4 premium you received
You might not have a hundred million dollars to invest, but that doesn’t mean your money can’t share in the same opportunities available to others. You work hard for your money; make sure your money works hard for you.
The wealth you pass to the next generation can have a profound impact on your heirs, providing educational opportunities, the capital to start a business, or financial support to your grandchildren.
To manage investment risk, consider maintaining a broad diversification of your investments that reflects your personal risk tolerance, time horizon, and the nature of your financial goal. Remember, diversification is an approach to help manage investment risk. It does not eliminate the risk of loss if security prices decline.Because investing can be complicated, consider working with a financial professional to help guide you on your wealth-building journey.
Last October started with $350 and end the month with $4,600. Spend time understanding and paper trading before using real money. Cash account was the best way for me to start. Start with SPY cheap contracts. You don’t need to trade expensive stocks.
*Great video. We all strive towards financial stability and a better life. It is easy to achieve this through the right investment, by living frugally and budgeting. I’m glad I learnt early in life to work hard for financial freedom*
In my opinion, venturing into a good investment, is not just a strategy for generating passive income but a profitable saving method for future expenses. Those who fail to make the right decisions early in life end up regretting. Nevertheless, investing can be difficult and risky doing it solely. For this reason , I advise on seeking help from professionals(financial advisor). It’s not just watching videos and reading investment book but the challenge is using it well.

For everyone that is second-guessing options from this video: Options may be risky, but that is true for every financial asset in the markets. Please do your research on key statistics for options such as implied volatility, intrinsic value, time value, the Greeks, etc. There are great resources like Investopedia, The Balance, etc. to help with the basics of options. Also... You might "lose" all your money, but you will never owe the brokerage money for going negative, which is safer than going short on pure stock. Just don't put 100% of your account value into one option contract. Happy gambling 😃
It's funny actually that they have a number of rules against Stock trading. Let alone, options trading. There's an age restriction, PDT, level 3 restrictions etc. while the only restriction that they impose on gambling is an age restriction. It's extremely obvious that these rules and regulations aren't meant for our well-being but for the several multi-billion dollar hedge funds' sake. The wealth become wealthier and poor get poorer!
"never going negative" remember that for every option you buy there is someone else selling it. Thus, when writing options you could lose massive amounts (when writing puts) or technically infinite amounts (when writing calls).
@@jeroenreimink4977 Yes, but the basics of options works in such a way you will only lose 100% of the position and never owe any money to the brokerage (aka a margin call).
@@Void-yl9om omg i just realized we have like the same profile pic 😂 Anyways, there's a lot of new brokers like Webull which is what I use, and they give retail investors so much room to get into new markets (which is how I'm able to trade options). But regardless, the whales will always be the ones making big bucks!
i have been actively buying (mostly) and selling stocks since about beginning of 2020. It has been huge learning experience. I have not touched bying or selling options. I am not ready for this. Perhaps later in 2022, I may be ready to sell an option as an experiment. For now, the closest i have come to buing and selling options is bying ETN, with deploy covered calls, such as QYLD and XYLD. I pay their expense ratio, and receive a monthly distribution. Their pros do all the work of sorting out selling covered calls. I am able to generate about 12-15% in anual distributions, paid out monthly with these.
Casio strategy applies. People lose money because they stick around instead of cashing money when money is up. I remember one of the best female traders saying" If you watch the tape more than 45 minutes a day during market hour you will lose." Place conditional orders (buy and sell) before market opens and walk away.
Can’t be yoloing your way through it and gotta invest in yourself if you’re going to do options trading, I make myself about 2 to 4 grand a month trading options.
GameStop, as well as a few other well-organized trading events were 100% worth it. If only to make the 1% nervous and prove our collective power. That said, I definitely do think there are also plenty forums with lots of traction that propose risky or even fraudulent tactics. For every good thing on the internet, there are a 100 trying to take advantage of it. Not everyone is well-informed, some just follow the hype.

Do a video on how Melvin Capital created the perfect market conditions for retail investors to profit and what that redistribution of wealth looked like.

That’s what makes options trading an appealing investment. Risk to reward. This is just trying to limit the retail investors from leveraging their investments.
Exactly. Options are risky no doubt about that but she's lying when she said " your potential for profit aren't that high". I've turned 500 into 7,600 in 3 weeks by buying a call option in one stock. That's 1,500% in 3 weeks. I was willing to risk $500 to make 7,600. It's risky but to me the reward outweighs the risk...
i'm guilty of playing options, my cousin taught me before the pandemic but I could never fully understand it so I did my research and studied it online. I remember making a lot of money from AMC but honestly I got lucky. I bought AMC because there was a rumor that Amazon was thinking of buying AMC . So i bought contracts for a year out with a strike price 3 to 5 dollars close to the money. all of a sudden three months in, wall street bets gets a hold of it and shot it to the moon. I sold literally at it's all time high which I got lucky again because I didn’t have an exit strategy especially when you see money move in your account at a rapid pace. I was able to at least see what was clearly luck I cashed out and before putting any more money back in the market. I took the time to get the education and learn how to trade effective and would practice with paper trading first.
I realized that the secret to making a million is making better investment .

On one hand you have the wide gap between finance and actual business, with the image of financial types playing with other people's money and getting a bailout if things go bad; on the other you have millions putting more faith in their abilities than they should: "if that feckless finance bro can do it, so can I".
Im just learning about the bull call spread so ill explain it in comments to help me understand.With an bull call spread in this situation when the stock price is 900 you buy a call with a lower strike of 925 for 27 dollars so break even is 952..then sell a 1000 call for 30 dollars both at same expiration date so the net gain to is 3 dollars at that point. if the stock goes above 952 to 1000 you make a profit. After 1000 the sold call is in the money. So the 925 call that was bought can be sold and with that profit you can buy to close the call.
Options trading is also riskier than it should be for many traders because they refuse to take losses and double down on the losers. Since options can lose value so rapidly, especially if they're close to expiration, this is a sure way to quickly blow up your account. Instead, losses most be cut very quickly. Gamma squeezes are real though, when people buy many, many call options the market makers hedge by buying shares, causing the price to rise further. If you know what to look for you can get an edge instead of it being a slot Machine.
sorta. you can get stuck catching a falling knife with cash secured puts...then again, that's just an opportunity to start selling calls against those newly assigned shares.
You will never take the emotions out of trading because everyone is looking to win. No one sane would be trading looking to lose. Being able to pay your rent on time, feed your family have money to take care of the little luxuries you may want. Those create joy, calm. Losing creates sadness,anger.
As a student studying IFM actuarial exam, I can't agree with a lot points made on this series. 1:00 Much cheaper per unit??? And also I don't know what's ur definition of "high profit potential" but volatility of options are usually higher than underlying asset and hence much potential for losses and gains 4:58 You can definitely use options for speculative purposes like straddle and strangle position, which is used by professionals as well. 7:35 Exercising option isn't the only way to make profits! You can simply close your position before the expiry. Unless implied volatility is too high or like it's an option with only few days remaining until expiry, this information is misleading. 8:27 Most investments are positively correlated with risk and return. Strategy 1 has unlimited profit potential whereas strategy 2 has limited profit potential. Option also allows you to make profit on various situations other than just simple drop or rise in price of underlying securities. Instead of treating options like gambling and pure greed of trading platforms, CNBC should have took more in dept approach to investigate this method of investing!
Options are addictive....i was up over 100k this year, then lost 50k of that, then gained 30k back, then lost that 30k again. Its emotionally draining with those highs and lows. I sold everything and have held on to cash and can sleep much better and am happy
I made so much money on options. Be careful for wide bid/ask spread for more liquidity. Always buy over a month out because of it goes wrong you don’t lose everything. DONT play earnings it’s a trap. The Greeks will burn you. Also options allow hedgefund to control a stock because they can make a synthetic share by buying a call and put at the same strike.
I'm cautious about giving specific recommendations as everyone's situation varies. Consider independent financial advisors like "Victoria Carmen Santaella" I've worked with her for 4 years and highly recommend her. Check if she meets your criteria.
Also, what happened to doge to the moon lol. There was only two months throughout the whole year where you would have made money if you bought in AND sold within that time. The trading memes these days are like a pyramid scheme of hype. Most people get in too late and try to continue to hype up other people so they have a chance to get out.
I normally just sell covered calls on investments I have or plan on holding long term for extra income. If it is called I just look for another entry point later on and keep the gains I had plus the selling premium. Most of the time it doesn’t get called and I keep the premium and the asset. Not super risky unless you where just swing trading a company and you sell a covered call with it. Then if it tanks you take a larger loss because you have to buy to close the option and then take the loss on the stock if you really didn’t want to keep it anyway.
I would think the main problem with this would be having to pay taxes if you have to sell a large position. Am I right? I’ll be looking to sell way out of the money covered calls in a retirement account once I have enough shares. It wouldn’t be a lot of money but it’s basically free and will compound tax free.
My experience with options trading in 2020 was mixed. I won big some days and lots big others. You really have to have a high risk tolerance level, mentally, emotionally, and especially financially. I wouldn't say it's hard, you just to really have to learn and understand absolutely everything about trading stacks and options. Like the Greeks, time decay, and the market and the companies and the ceo's and the history and the environment of the stock you're trying to trade. You have to be in the right market and time it right. You also need to understand that the market is rigged a lot of the time by the hedge funds. Market manipulation is real and it will drain your account if you let it. Me personally I'm broke and have bills I can't afford to play this game right now.
Similar experience for me, sone extreme highs and lows. Honestly a lot is luck and timing. I had some tesla puts that did nothing, then as soon as i sell then they exploded higher on no news at all. It takes skill, but also luck
How in the world is the ATM 925 call option in there example at the 8:05 mark cheaper than the OTM 1000 call option? These people are getting the basics wrong.
Why is there no coverage of the strategy of selling out of the money options (cash secured, not leveraged) to collect premiums in order to generate modest, but consistent income? To my mind, this is the least risky way for folks to generate income - they become the insurer, not the person buying a policy. It would be beneficial to see some coverage of the less risky side of option trading.
Respectfully, not really - if you apply proper analysis and discipline. 1) only sell puts on a company whose stock you would buy anyways - do a fundamental analysis and figure out at what price that company is on sale, ie, what price you would pay for that stock even if you weren't using an options strategy. 2) only sell the put at your above mentioned "sale price". If you get assigned the stock, that's ok, because you would have bought it at that price anyways, you just got paid for doing what you would have already done. 3) only sell covered calls above your basis, and at an amount that lets you lock in a healthy profit. Rinse. Repeat. If you're employing a strategy like this on some stock just because it is volatile or has lots of premium, then it is risky, but if you're employing the strategy on a company you would buy anyways, you're actually reducing your basis and hence your risk. Never employ this strategy unless you're investing like Buffet ie; don't buy a stock for 10 minutes if you wouldn't hold it for 10 years. Same rules apply to options. You're welcome :)
Is it the same , risk , to in vest in options on the Chigago Stock exchange. Corn and wheat futures , options etc. Is it better to learn on the commodities market?
I'm a newbie with options and need a tough question answered. Please help.. When I place a market order to "buy to open" a call option, and once it's filled, I then place a "stop loss order" at say 50% of the purchase price paid for the option, can I possibly lose more than that? If not, then why are people losing their life savings? I don't understand.
12 year options trader here. People are losing their savings trading on "margin". Or simply put borrowed money traded against the balance as collateral. They are highly leveraged in this position on an already leveraged financial instrument. , and you still must come up with the interest you owe on the loan.
I tried doing options with a 100k , I lost it all in just one month....... So yeah, prolly best to not get involved in things you don't fully understand. Edit: I'm sharing this not cause there's something wrong with options contracts but rather so that you understand the gravity of dambling in it and not make the same mistakes many newbies make by learning from the mistakes of others.
IF you buy a call or a put the most you can lose is the amount of money that the call or put cost you. Options are risky and basically gambling the market or the underlying moves in a certain direction at a certain speed no later than a certain date. The closer to expiration the less valuable the option becomes. Many options traders are in and out of a option position within days to weeks.
There are no risks when you learn how to properly do them. Which out of all the investments out there, options have the lowest financial threshold to get in and start. Also, the biggest returns. Anyone can learn how to do it and it's not that complicated. Anyone 18+ up to retirees can multiple their returns at least 10x greater than just a retirement fund run by supposed financial experts. The only issue is that most people do not know anything about them, if they did.....then they definitely would not be putting their money in a retirement fund or any other financial vehicle out there to grow their money or make a large income! It does not take much you can start with as little as 500 bucks and use options to quit your job, get rich or super charge your retirement fund. Learn, practice, master it and then money will not be an issue in your life!
Very negative video towards retail traders choosing to use options. Whether someone knows what they are doing or not, they are adding liquidity to the market, that’s good for everyone, even the rich, so stop complaining. Anyone who makes money now owes capital gains tax which creates more revenue for the government, another positive. If someone loses or blows up their account, that’s too bad but at the same time that’s their own personal choice. Sounds to me like this is about keeping certain people out of the market, simple as that. Once again, the more people that participate in the market, rich, poor, dumb, smart, means more liquidity which is better for the market in the end. Literally trillions of dollars move through the market every single day, the amount of that money that is from retail traders is so insignificant, it’s nothing compared to the big money that moves the market, so where’s the fire? The content of this video is complete crap. Then again this is from the people that bring you Jim Cramer. 🤣👍
Long calls and especially puts are WAY more safe than shorting equity and futures. You don't even need margin to trade long calls and puts. This thing is trying to scare people... There is way more dangerous ways to trade than long calls and puts. Shorting anything is more dangerous than long calls and puts.

Well... the only problem with using GameStop as an example is that it is one of those rare internet trades that actually made a ton of money for retail investors, and destroyed a number of large private traders who had been shorting the stock and got squeezed for billions. That particular action was not a pump and dump, it was a "we're going to force a short squeeze and take some large over-leveraged traders to the slaughterhouse", in public, on the internet. And they did it. Twice in fact. And now maybe even a third time.
Robinhood, on the other-hand, is the ultimate stupid-consumer bait. It wasn't promoting trading for the masses... you could already do that on any number of platforms. It was promoting fast, repeated trading by offering 'free' trades. They make money by selling those retail trading streams to large trading houses to sniff and front-run. Death of a thousand cuts. Their platform definitely did not have the best interests of the teeming masses at heart.
If you want pump-and-dumps, shady trading practices, and mass fraud, the crypto-currency and NFT markets take the cake these days. A never ending stream of fakery, fraud, and theft.

I can’t wait for the piece they do on “How Market Makers and Hedge Funds Made Risky Trading the Norm”
They won’t lol
Market makers and hedgefunds didn't make me to trade options. I've been trading it for 7 years now. If you own growth tech stocks, especially in this environment, you should use options to hedge your portfolio 😀
with this intern explaining it lol!
This whole video can be summed up into “leverage correlates with risk”
Tldr: A bunch of professional gamblers want more rules "to save the common gambler" in their casino so the professional gamblers have less chance of losing money.
U.S. stock index futures were lower on Thursday as news of another COVID lockdown in China revived concerns about a slowing global economy. My primary concern is how to grow my reserve of $300k which has been sitting duck since forever with zero to no gains, sure I know the risks of short term gains are much greater but if well managed one'd make a killing, am I wrong?
I love how this video only talks about how terrible options are and that you could lose all ur money but never once talks about the exponential gain potential of options. If options were so terrible, then why are they so popular with traders?
It’s all fear propaganda they do the same thing about starting a business is so “risky”
Not entirely true. Try 2:12, for example.
True, but remember a lot of Wall St traders make money regardless of if they win or lose their clients money. Many also have no legal obligation whatsoever to do what's in the best interest of their clients, nor do they care about their integrity. That's how the Wall St casino always wins.
They just trying to scare retail investors options can dangerous if you’re yoloing otm options other than if you’re using charts like TradingView and getting the premium version with best indicators you’ll be good I’ve been trading options since last summer and at this point I make more a month trading them my gross take home pay from my job.
Options are a valuable instrument for insurance and leverage! Idk why CNBC claims its sooo "risky". Maybe they've read too many Reddit posts about people buying OTM option contracts with an expiration date a week from now? Just a guess lol
For every option bought, there is an option sold. For all the "dumb" money greedily buying short term options chasing big short term gains, there are INCOME investors selling those options, covered by stock to fully hedge the risk, and making a LOT more income than the dividends on the significant option premiums.
There are LOTS of books and articles about trading stock options out there, so it's not like anyone has to go into the risk blindly.
What books would you recommend?
watch the tastytrade videos on youtube. If you are new to options, stick to selling cash secured puts on stocks and ETFs you already want to own. It’s easier to make money by selling options because the value of options lose value with time. Your basically selling something that you hope will become worthless because options expire. Doing this won’t make you a lot of money but it’s very high probability and good for beginners.
Options are not risky if you know how to exit your position; got to take profit and have a stop loss!
When the market goes down then it's buying opportunity. If the market goes up then you are making money. If you stay invested and ignore the market's ups and downs, you'll make a lot of money in the long run; however, a severe market correction causes a lot of margin calls and sell-offs, driving the market even lower. currently, I'm up 13% in my diversified portfolio. As crazy as it sounds some still make enormous returns from this seemingly unknown market. gotta be greedy when others are fearful
exactly what I'm personally planning on doing now the market is down, but I have no idea about stocks to buy or what assets that would yield the highest potential and so on. Your portfolio is freaking awesome, you seem to be doing well yourself. how do you select stocks you invest in?

I'm MUCH more interested in buying stocks now that they are cheap. You can't just sit on cash waiting for the market to drop 10% before you start buying.

The market is volatile at this time, hence i will suggest you get yourself an inv-advisor/coach that can provide you with entry and exit points on the financial assets you focus on.
I'm sure the idea of a coach might sound generic or controversial to a few, but new study by investopedia found that demand for inv-coaches sky-rocketed by over 41.8% since the pandemic, and based on firsthand encounter, I can say for certain their skillsets are topnotch. I was able to raise a whooping $4.5M that set me up for a comfortable retirement after 5 years of subsequent investment. Exactly cost me $800k capital, was confident enough cos funds where in my trading account.>
I was self-managing my portfolio but suffered heavy losses in 2022 and i knew i couldn't continue like that, so i consulted a fiduciary advisor. By restructuring and diversifying my $1.2M portfolio with dividend-paying stocks, ETFs, Mutual funds and REITs, I significantly boosted my portfolio, achieving an annualized gain of 28%.

Regulators don't really care about investors. Only keeping you poor and in the working class. If they did you would not have the PTD rule. That just locked you into a trade for a day so if a trade starts to go against you you can't get out before you lose your profits.
Yup these regulations are more counterproductive and not necessarily protective. Those who want to trade should do so if they lose they lose simple. Those who'll adapt and win will do so. Regulators do more harm than good.

When some people think of successful stock traders, they think of multimillionaires lounging in a beach town, making trades and relaxing. That reality is rare, and stock trading isn't as easy or lucrative as it might seem from the outside.

The best strategy to use in trading stock is to trade with a professional who understands the market quite well, that way maximum profit is guaranteed. Because i have learnt along the way of my investment that research and analysis are important, note that experience is more needed than luck when it comes to the stock market.

Many people are saying that, and there are some truth in it, but it's not always true.
@@Jodingowal that saying is usually implying a much longer time horizon, and historically referring to the broad market. 3 years is hardly “time in the market.” If you’re thinking in terms of horizons less than 5 years, you’re probably more of a trader than an investor, which is fine if you want to do that, but still doesn’t discredit that saying.
Institutional investors are scared now that retail investors are being exposed to all of these products because they will no longer have their edge. People are free to make their own decisions. AMC and Gamestop shares rose because of the demand. Whether or not that the price is reflecting the “true intrinsic” value is irrelevant. The market price is determined by how much someone is willing to pay, so retail investors stuck it to the man when those institutions shorted the stock. Good on them too, who says investors have to play by the rules. If they get caught with their pants down, then thats the risk they took by shorting the shares.
Very well articulated; I wish I had more time for trial and error, but I'll be 56 in October and I need ideas and advice on what investments to make to set myself up for retirement, especially with the looming inflation and recession; my goal is to have a portfolio of at least $500k at the age of 60.
The S&P500 is now trading below its 25-year average based on the price-earnings ratio. Good news for people who will be investing over the next years and decades.

My advice for investing priority: 1) Real Estate 2) Tech ETFs 3) Company's you believe in long term . Options are no different from gambling in the casino
@Beta Weighted Betting on whether a stock is going to go up or down based on some "catalysts" isn't gambling to a certain degree? Nobody in the world knows what stock will go up or down unless you have insider information, so with that degree of uncertainty you buying calls or puts is exactly what gambling is. As someone who's made over 50k in 2020 over options and subsequently lost half my profits this year alone, i think i know what options trading is
We are already in the big crash, Inflation is a catastrophe. This CPI report is a colossal failure. To bring the housing market to a halt, the FED will have to pull all the stops. The unfortunate issue is that other markets are being decimated.If you want to stay green, you have to rely on a lot of diversification. Currently up 14% and being careful. Still a better deal than leaving it in a savings or checking account yielding 0-1 percent interest.
People believe their currency has the worth it does because they have no other option. Even in a hyperinflationary environment, individuals must continue to use their hyperinflationary currency since they likely have minimal access to other currencies or gold/silver coins.

Thanks so much for this video, I'm nearly 32 trying to understand the market, I spent about 8 hours just on this video, taking notes and trying to get at least beginners knowledge, and I have to say that out of all the videos I watched, this one helped the most. Thanks again
having professional mentor is also very important when it comes to trading, without proper mentorship, one trend to opt out of the market early enough. I do my investment with mrs Stacy Griffin
I stumbled upon one of her clients testimonies and decided to try her out...I'm expecting my third cash out in two days
Mrs Stacy is indeed a forex mentor. With my first investment of $7000 I got a ROI of $70,000 in a week
@Betsy Schwartz I don't really know about that, but I think There is really no country restrictions in her company...I'm investing with her from Switzerland
What surprises me about mostly is that, she gives her clients access to her trading site whereby they can monitor their trades on daily basis
Great video really. also i agree with your opinion, For the newbie if you are actually trading in the crypto space and you don't have a sound mentor. Then you are certainly going to get liquidated in 90% of your trades. Yeah that's the sad truth. For a start you need a good and experienced hand to guide you. Trust me, trading isn't difficult as we see it. With the right information and guide, you can earn hugely monthly.
You're right! I have lost a lot trading all by myself without a guide. It's been an uneasy ride for me. Who is your mentor please. I actually don't mind paying.
@@reyansh437 That's sad. i totally understand. i actually lost too at the early stage and then i had someone to manage my account and i watched his strategy and how he does it. Anthony Kulan has been my mentor and i trade using his daily signals
First understanding the financial market and how it works then you need to know how to study the market charts. That's all you stand to get when you start trading with Anthony. he's highly recommendable.
Trading without any guide is so risky, you're right. you need to get a good mentor to guide your trades.
How can i get in touch with Anthony please?
8:23 Alright, so you’re telling me that the closer in the money option @$925 ($27) costs less than the further out of the money contract @$1000 ($30)
Great example 👍
The higher profit probability for 925 call has a lower $27 price due to collecting the premium from selling the 1000 call (2nd leg of the option spread). Good example to illustrate the basic idea of trying to improve odds for making money on every trade.
Options are designed to offset risk, this video is flat out wrong. I’m sorry people actually believe this… if you don’t understand options, don’t make a video about it and second: don’t believe it!!!
Following this options trading strategy, I made $ 3.47 million with a capital of $ 255K

Main problem, trading in general is very rosy regardless of options trading or stock trading. From my experience the options trading is the most rigged as you have no control and you are betting against a volatile item. It can also be noted that even though the experts have a leg up, it can be said that 95% of traders including experts have a bad trade. (FYI some of them have degrees which benefit them yet still fail)
What are you even on about? Rigged? No control? Betting against a volatile item? Literally just don't buy short term expiries, far OTM, or dabble with illiquid options. Already following those rules will limit your risk greatly. Then if you actually make your decisions based on fundamentals rather than based on hopium, you'll most likely end up in profit.
Covered calls...... Conservative method.
It's because of wage supression making it difficult for young people to get ahead and make good money. Wages have stagnated for years, so no wonder they are making risky financial choices to try to get the same standard of living their parents had.

You can't lose more money than the cost of the option. At the end it's always your call to exercise the right to buy or the right to sell.
Not true. Sell a 50 strike call for $4, now what happens if the stock goes to $70 and you get exercised? You will need to go buy the shares at $70 to cover the calls you sold and lose way more than the $4 premium you received

You might not have a hundred million dollars to invest, but that doesn’t mean your money can’t share in the same opportunities available to others. You work hard for your money; make sure your money works hard for you.
The wealth you pass to the next generation can have a profound impact on your heirs, providing educational opportunities, the capital to start a business, or financial support to your grandchildren.
To manage investment risk, consider maintaining a broad diversification of your investments that reflects your personal risk tolerance, time horizon, and the nature of your financial goal. Remember, diversification is an approach to help manage investment risk. It does not eliminate the risk of loss if security prices decline.Because investing can be complicated, consider working with a financial professional to help guide you on your wealth-building journey.

*Great video. We all strive towards financial stability and a better life. It is easy to achieve this through the right investment, by living frugally and budgeting. I’m glad I learnt early in life to work hard for financial freedom*
In my opinion, venturing into a good investment, is not just a strategy for generating passive income but a profitable saving method for future expenses. Those who fail to make the right decisions early in life end up regretting. Nevertheless, investing can be difficult and risky doing it solely. For this reason , I advise on seeking help from professionals(financial advisor). It’s not just watching videos and reading investment book but the challenge is using it well.

For everyone that is second-guessing options from this video: Options may be risky, but that is true for every financial asset in the markets. Please do your research on key statistics for options such as implied volatility, intrinsic value, time value, the Greeks, etc. There are great resources like Investopedia, The Balance, etc. to help with the basics of options.

You might "lose" all your money, but you will never owe the brokerage money for going negative, which is safer than going short on pure stock. Just don't put 100% of your account value into one option contract.
Happy gambling 😃
It's funny actually that they have a number of rules against Stock trading. Let alone, options trading. There's an age restriction, PDT, level 3 restrictions etc. while the only restriction that they impose on gambling is an age restriction. It's extremely obvious that these rules and regulations aren't meant for our well-being but for the several multi-billion dollar hedge funds' sake. The wealth become wealthier and poor get poorer!
"never going negative" remember that for every option you buy there is someone else selling it. Thus, when writing options you could lose massive amounts (when writing puts) or technically infinite amounts (when writing calls).
@@jeroenreimink4977 Yes, but the basics of options works in such a way you will only lose 100% of the position and never owe any money to the brokerage (aka a margin call).

Anyways, there's a lot of new brokers like Webull which is what I use, and they give retail investors so much room to get into new markets (which is how I'm able to trade options). But regardless, the whales will always be the ones making big bucks!
i have been actively buying (mostly) and selling stocks since about beginning of 2020. It has been huge learning experience. I have not touched bying or selling options. I am not ready for this. Perhaps later in 2022, I may be ready to sell an option as an experiment. For now, the closest i have come to buing and selling options is bying ETN, with deploy covered calls, such as QYLD and XYLD. I pay their expense ratio, and receive a monthly distribution. Their pros do all the work of sorting out selling covered calls. I am able to generate about 12-15% in anual distributions, paid out monthly with these.
Casio strategy applies. People lose money because they stick around instead of cashing money when money is up. I remember one of the best female traders saying" If you watch the tape more than 45 minutes a day during market hour you will lose." Place conditional orders (buy and sell) before market opens and walk away.
Lol the blaming starts 🤣🤣😂😂😂
Risk of Bull Call Spread is if no one buys the Call Option you are selling. And if the price falls.

Channels like CNBC telling people buy buy buy with crazy buzzer sounds in 2 minute snippets? Oh no, it was intellectuals discussing detailed rationales for their stock picks on forums and actively debating pros and cons with other retail traders
That’s what makes options trading an appealing investment. Risk to reward. This is just trying to limit the retail investors from leveraging their investments.
Exactly. Options are risky no doubt about that but she's lying when she said " your potential for profit aren't that high". I've turned 500 into 7,600 in 3 weeks by buying a call option in one stock. That's 1,500% in 3 weeks. I was willing to risk $500 to make 7,600. It's risky but to me the reward outweighs the risk...
I'll tell you how it works- when you buy calls, stocks go down, when you buy puts, stocks go up LOL
Options are just speedrunning the stock market.
i'm guilty of playing options, my cousin taught me before the pandemic but I could never fully understand it so I did my research and studied it online. I remember making a lot of money from AMC but honestly I got lucky. I bought AMC because there was a rumor that Amazon was thinking of buying AMC . So i bought contracts for a year out with a strike price 3 to 5 dollars close to the money. all of a sudden three months in, wall street bets gets a hold of it and shot it to the moon. I sold literally at it's all time high which I got lucky again because I didn’t have an exit strategy especially when you see money move in your account at a rapid pace. I was able to at least see what was clearly luck I cashed out and before putting any more money back in the market. I took the time to get the education and learn how to trade effective and would practice with paper trading first.
I realized that the secret to making a million is making better investment . I always tell myself you don't need that new Car or that vacation just yet and that mindset helps me make more money invest : ng . For example last year I invested 70k in blue chip stocks and crypt0 s ( with the help of my advisor of course ) and made about 380k , but guess what ? I put it back and traded with her again and now I'm rounding up close to a million . Delayed gratification always pays off

RIP to homie who died because he panicked over his losses.
Is the scenario that the gentleman at 12:25 in the video the same as a "pump and dump" scheme ?
Im just learning about the bull call spread so ill explain it in comments to help me understand.With an bull call spread in this situation when the stock price is 900 you buy a call with a lower strike of 925 for 27 dollars so break even is 952..then sell a 1000 call for 30 dollars both at same expiration date so the net gain to is 3 dollars at that point. if the stock goes above 952 to 1000 you make a profit. After 1000 the sold call is in the money. So the 925 call that was bought can be sold and with that profit you can buy to close the call.
Options trading is also riskier than it should be for many traders because they refuse to take losses and double down on the losers. Since options can lose value so rapidly, especially if they're close to expiration, this is a sure way to quickly blow up your account. Instead, losses most be cut very quickly. Gamma squeezes are real though, when people buy many, many call options the market makers hedge by buying shares, causing the price to rise further. If you know what to look for you can get an edge instead of it being a slot Machine.
Don’t buy options It’s better to sell them
sorta. you can get stuck catching a falling knife with cash secured puts...then again, that's just an opportunity to start selling calls against those newly assigned shares.
Isn't the Tesla example at 7:35 wrong ?

You will never take the emotions out of trading because everyone is looking to win. No one sane would be trading looking to lose. Being able to pay your rent on time, feed your family have money to take care of the little luxuries you may want. Those create joy, calm. Losing creates sadness,anger.
But what does option trade add of value in the economy? It appear like gamble to me.
If you gonna gamble your money anyway I rather you do it in the stock market than in a casino or lotto. Just don't short or use leverage.
As a student studying IFM actuarial exam, I can't agree with a lot points made on this series. 1:00 Much cheaper per unit??? And also I don't know what's ur definition of "high profit potential" but volatility of options are usually higher than underlying asset and hence much potential for losses and gains 4:58 You can definitely use options for speculative purposes like straddle and strangle position, which is used by professionals as well. 7:35 Exercising option isn't the only way to make profits! You can simply close your position before the expiry. Unless implied volatility is too high or like it's an option with only few days remaining until expiry, this information is misleading. 8:27 Most investments are positively correlated with risk and return. Strategy 1 has unlimited profit potential whereas strategy 2 has limited profit potential. Option also allows you to make profit on various situations other than just simple drop or rise in price of underlying securities. Instead of treating options like gambling and pure greed of trading platforms, CNBC should have took more in dept approach to investigate this method of investing!

Options are addictive....i was up over 100k this year, then lost 50k of that, then gained 30k back, then lost that 30k again. Its emotionally draining with those highs and lows. I sold everything and have held on to cash and can sleep much better and am happy
Why don’t you scalp with options
I made so much money on options. Be careful for wide bid/ask spread for more liquidity. Always buy over a month out because of it goes wrong you don’t lose everything. DONT play earnings it’s a trap. The Greeks will burn you. Also options allow hedgefund to control a stock because they can make a synthetic share by buying a call and put at the same strike.
I want to understand this better.
I'm cautious about giving specific recommendations as everyone's situation varies. Consider independent financial advisors like "Victoria Carmen Santaella" I've worked with her for 4 years and highly recommend her. Check if she meets your criteria.
" my heart goes out to them" 😂😂😂😂 certainly not his profits. 😅 11:50
Option spreads are safer and cost less money then buying calls and puts
Also, what happened to doge to the moon lol. There was only two months throughout the whole year where you would have made money if you bought in AND sold within that time.
The trading memes these days are like a pyramid scheme of hype. Most people get in too late and try to continue to hype up other people so they have a chance to get out.
I normally just sell covered calls on investments I have or plan on holding long term for extra income. If it is called I just look for another entry point later on and keep the gains I had plus the selling premium. Most of the time it doesn’t get called and I keep the premium and the asset. Not super risky unless you where just swing trading a company and you sell a covered call with it. Then if it tanks you take a larger loss because you have to buy to close the option and then take the loss on the stock if you really didn’t want to keep it anyway.
I would think the main problem with this would be having to pay taxes if you have to sell a large position. Am I right? I’ll be looking to sell way out of the money covered calls in a retirement account once I have enough shares. It wouldn’t be a lot of money but it’s basically free and will compound tax free.

My experience with options trading in 2020 was mixed. I won big some days and lots big others. You really have to have a high risk tolerance level, mentally, emotionally, and especially financially. I wouldn't say it's hard, you just to really have to learn and understand absolutely everything about trading stacks and options. Like the Greeks, time decay, and the market and the companies and the ceo's and the history and the environment of the stock you're trying to trade. You have to be in the right market and time it right. You also need to understand that the market is rigged a lot of the time by the hedge funds. Market manipulation is real and it will drain your account if you let it. Me personally I'm broke and have bills I can't afford to play this game right now.
Similar experience for me, sone extreme highs and lows. Honestly a lot is luck and timing. I had some tesla puts that did nothing, then as soon as i sell then they exploded higher on no news at all. It takes skill, but also luck

Why is there no coverage of the strategy of selling out of the money options (cash secured, not leveraged) to collect premiums in order to generate modest, but consistent income?
To my mind, this is the least risky way for folks to generate income - they become the insurer, not the person buying a policy.
It would be beneficial to see some coverage of the less risky side of option trading.
Those are very risky, there's a good reason why your always making money, all you need is one market turmoil and that's it you lost everything
Respectfully, not really - if you apply proper analysis and discipline.
1) only sell puts on a company whose stock you would buy anyways - do a fundamental analysis and figure out at what price that company is on sale, ie, what price you would pay for that stock even if you weren't using an options strategy.
2) only sell the put at your above mentioned "sale price". If you get assigned the stock, that's ok, because you would have bought it at that price anyways, you just got paid for doing what you would have already done.
3) only sell covered calls above your basis, and at an amount that lets you lock in a healthy profit.
Rinse.
Repeat.
If you're employing a strategy like this on some stock just because it is volatile or has lots of premium, then it is risky, but if you're employing the strategy on a company you would buy anyways, you're actually reducing your basis and hence your risk.
Never employ this strategy unless you're investing like Buffet ie; don't buy a stock for 10 minutes if you wouldn't hold it for 10 years.
Same rules apply to options.

Did you buy or write the option?
IF you buy a call or a put the most you can lose is the amount of money that the call or put cost you. Options are risky and basically gambling the market or the underlying moves in a certain direction at a certain speed no later than a certain date. The closer to expiration the less valuable the option becomes. Many options traders are in and out of a option position within days to weeks.
They don't want to protect retail, they want to take advantage of them.
Options are the best investment tool available, period!
Yes, but there are big risks too, especially for retirees.
There are no risks when you learn how to properly do them. Which out of all the investments out there, options have the lowest financial threshold to get in and start. Also, the biggest returns. Anyone can learn how to do it and it's not that complicated. Anyone 18+ up to retirees can multiple their returns at least 10x greater than just a retirement fund run by supposed financial experts. The only issue is that most people do not know anything about them, if they did.....then they definitely would not be putting their money in a retirement fund or any other financial vehicle out there to grow their money or make a large income! It does not take much you can start with as little as 500 bucks and use options to quit your job, get rich or super charge your retirement fund. Learn, practice, master it and then money will not be an issue in your life!
Very negative video towards retail traders choosing to use options. Whether someone knows what they are doing or not, they are adding liquidity to the market, that’s good for everyone, even the rich, so stop complaining. Anyone who makes money now owes capital gains tax which creates more revenue for the government, another positive. If someone loses or blows up their account, that’s too bad but at the same time that’s their own personal choice. Sounds to me like this is about keeping certain people out of the market, simple as that. Once again, the more people that participate in the market, rich, poor, dumb, smart, means more liquidity which is better for the market in the end. Literally trillions of dollars move through the market every single day, the amount of that money that is from retail traders is so insignificant, it’s nothing compared to the big money that moves the market, so where’s the fire? The content of this video is complete crap. Then again this is from the people that bring you Jim Cramer. 🤣👍
Options are just somewhat complex financial derivatives. With proper knowledge and risk management it’s no more risky than any other form of trading.
Long calls and especially puts are WAY more safe than shorting equity and futures. You don't even need margin to trade long calls and puts. This thing is trying to scare people... There is way more dangerous ways to trade than long calls and puts. Shorting anything is more dangerous than long calls and puts.
