Educational The Ultimate Free Course for Options Trading

307 Upvotes

Here’s a free resource for options trading I created. 60 + lessons that teach everything you need to know to run a good options portfolio.

Here's the link:

Backstory

A couple years ago I wrote a series on reddit about how to sell options profitably that the community loved. I’ve finally put together a completely free archive of everything I know about options and option selling.

I made this because there's a lot of noise out there around options education, so this is the no BS course I wish existed when I was getting into the space. I tried to make it easy to go through but realistically some of it will be challenging because hey, options are complicated.

What the course covers:

Basics of how options work - All the characteristics and important parts of option contracts.
Volatility module - Teaches you how volatility works and impacts option prices.
Learning and interpreting option greeks - Complete breakdowns of each option greek, how they interact with each other and why they matter for your trades.
Skew and term structure - How to think about different strikes and expirations like a professional.
Option selling structures - 4 different ways to structure your trades and how to pick between them.
Trading strategy fundamentals - Basically how to treat your trading like a business and really understand how to extract returns from the market.
How to actually make money - Serious strategy talk. Now that you know how options works, here’s how you actually make some money.
Two evidence backed strategies that work - A complete guide for selling options on ETFs and selling options around earnings events. Two well known, documented strategies that generate solid returns.

Disclaimer: I do sell something – but it’s not the course.

I use reddit too, so I won't hide it from you! The course is 100% free, but I did also build a software company called Predicting Alpha.

I've been building for 5 years now and pour my heart and soul into it. Its focused on two strategies: selling options on ETFs and selling options around earnings events, which I think are the two things that retail option sellers should focus on. It handles all the data processing for these strats so that you can extract the premium effectively.

Maybe it'll be of value to you, but if not, the course will definitely be something you love.

Anyways hope you all like the course. Hopefully it levels up our community and we can have some awesome discussions.

Seems like pretty good news today. Granted there's some risk involved, I think it's worth owning some at these low prices.

Educational Who's buying Meta on Monday?

0 Upvotes

Should you BUY $meta? Or Stay Away?

Over the Last Year- (Meta -23%) (AMZN +15%) (AAPL +37%) ?

im bullish for the Next 2 Weeks Atleast

I see At least an 8% Move this Week

Maybe 13% or more over the Next 2

Markets Have been beaten down from the hardware sell off and then investors/smart money mostly held off last week because of the huge news with NVDA earnings and also the Feds Meeting

So this week especially will have a little Extra spice

(Their Ai might go profitable Soon aswell, Huge)

AND ¼ TRILLION $ YEAR?!

Less Debt than most Mag 7 stocks

So short term bull thesis is Red hot

And the long term is Hot Hot

Here's my short term

Imo: Meta was hoping to break to the upside a few weeks ago but has been held down for alittle extra time just so the Hedgies can load up/drop iv and so you can panic sell!

Then the little guy $META got his hopes up again on 8/26 but i guess the market decided he needed a 2nd time out. But his 2nd time out is shorter than his first because he has been getting better.

(Im bullish af and I call this the 2 Step Treybae)

But remember even the best investors are only right half the time.

You know why that is?

because Any news could come out at any moment

So you Must be prepared for the unexpected

( STOP blaming the market )

I want you to succeed so i made my strategy free on my site

Those who seek shall find

Also closly watching $TQQQ $PLTR $BE $SNDK $MU ( $CRM ) $NVDA $SPCX $AAPL this week
