One thing I use to help me remember how to hedge foreign currencies with options is RPBP (receiving payment buy puts) and OPBC (owe payment buy calls) :) hope this can help others too!!

Thank you for all that you do!! I will be recommending your page to anyone I know who is taking a Series Exam. You are the man!!
Dean, I watched your video this morning before passing the 7. I used EPIC, BAAC, and your 144 rule all at least once. It can't be stated enough how much you helped and will continue to help others like myself. On to the the 66!

@@SandraFernandes621 hi Sanra, best of luck! no I did not memorize any options, i think it's better to completely understand how they work then you'll always know the answer!
So I just took the series 7 two days ago and it was not what I was expecting. I did watch a lot of Deans videos and no doubt they helped a great deal (Thx Dean) but be advised, the test was far different from what I was studying for. There was a far smaller amount of options and bond questions than I was expecting, but mostly it was a lot of suitability and dealing with clients and investments for their portfolio. I didn't see one question in regards to any of the practice questions and they were more complex. What I'm trying to say is learn the products, proper evaluation of the client and his/her bests interests, and how to deal with clients, trust me. And yes I passed. Good Luck everyone!
Every draw is different and yours sounds much different than most as reflected in most of the comments. Your comment is the exception to those comments. Sounds like the a face of death draw. Kudos on taking down your draw and making your mark.
I passed on my first try today. Thank you so much for the help Dean, your videos are great. Between Kaplan QBank and your channel - the S7 never stood a chance!!! On to the 66.

18:24 BULLS acronym blew my mind, had to rewind to the spreads section to really visualize the pattern. I went through 4 finance courses in College and forgot this trend, so glad I watched this video before my series seven.
THIS IS A MUST! if you are thinking of taking your series 7 watch this a couple of days before your exam even the day before. Dean thank you for all you do! Passed my test yesterday on my first try.
Dean you are absouletly right about T tartar line. Now I can do those easily. But still struggling with other q for Series 7.Excellent Video. Very helpful.
Passed on the first go around. Thanks guru. The mnemonics were an easy 5-10 points I didn’t have to think about. I’ll buy you lunch next time I’m in Vegas lol.
Dean, I cannot thank you enough for the tips and tricks that you prepared for this video. I have a mostly photographic memory, so utilizing this video and the data dump sheet was incredibly helpful in tying together my last bits of information.

Thank you for making this video available to the public. I am so happy that I stumbled across it. Now I’m onto the Series 66 Exam! Best, Kyle K
Very happy to have found you and your channel. My 52yr old brain and I slogged through 500+ pages of Kaplan text and I am not trying to learn/understand what I read. Your "translation" of things is exactly what I need - I think. 2 weeks until the 7.
@@Series7Guru So here's a dumb question. Do you have a video that isolates and focuses on that one area (f2) that has the most (91) questions? Or is "F2" a broad stroke?
Hi Dean.Planning to take exam next week.Can please send me the 4 content FINRA outline that you so graciously explicated. This would help me so much. I have been so blessed to meet 🙏 you
Hi, i failed my 7 and would like to buy the kaplan course for my retake, i find your videos very useful, do you still have a coupon code for the course.
just watched the whole thing it may sound dumb but sometimes what confuses me is when should you do buy limit and sell stop you said always do it under marketprice does this relate to resistance and support levels?
Dean, I wanted to see if you had any advice or other tools you would suggest for studying. I watched all of your videos and lectures including the high level overview day of exam. I’ve also taken the STC course and bought a few study materials. I did not pass today and missed by 2 points with a 70. I also looked at areas the said I’m not adequate in but it’s so high level. I felt I had a solid basic understanding of the products. Any advice? This is my 2nd attempt. The first was 71. Took another 2 months to study.
@@Jose16633 that's helpful. That's 91 questions so if you find a few points there you will make your mark. Print the pdf from the FINRA website and checkout their breakdown of function 3.
No. I would google it and you will see some very good inspiration. Should be your own but matrix and teeter totter for sure. Thanks for participating last night. I wrote Brian up for having a bad mic. lol. Will do a sound check with him before next Tuesday live.
A spread has two different strike prices. One strike price is lower than the other strike price. For example, a spread with a 40 call and a 50 call. The lower strike price is 40. Another example, a spread with 40 put and 50 put. The lower strike price is 40. If you are long the 40 call (the lower strike) it a bullish meaning you want the stock to go up. If you are long the 40 put (the lower strike) again it is a bullish spread meaning you want the stock to go up. Just a trick. Debit call spreads are bullish and so are credit put spreads. Have you watched the two lectures on spreads? That is more informative than tips, tricks, and memory aids.
@@Series7Guru thank for always responding. I watched your explication video and the tutoring session on spreads, and all.ofvthe videos on the target rich list. Im currently taking a practice test daily until my test on the 21st. I'll try to watch the spread videos also. Truly appreciate your work!!
Dean, thank you so much. Huge victory. I just passed the 7. First Try. English is my second language. Finance is my third language. now I make a living with finance. 7 days intensive study (1pm to 4am). I studied STC. Final exam score was 50, 59, 65, 50. watch your video twice (Tips, Tricks & 1 hour video). It was very helpful. Kudos.
Dean, I just want to say I really appreciate all the work youve put into this youtube channel. I have few resources and had very little knowledge about the financial industry until this last month, but after watching most of your channel I feel prepared and confident going into taking the SIE exam this week ALL THANKS TO YOU!
Lots of SIE test takers have been victorious using the channel. I am sure you will be victorious too. Sending you good test vibes. Thanks for your kind words. Always very gratifying when my channel contributes to test taking victories.
I just passed my Series 7 today. Prior to taking the test. I had failed 4 practice exams the day before I scored a measly 54%. I watched this video on my drive to the exam, and I jotted everything he said on my scratch sheet before to the best of my ability. When the final screen said pass, I almost fell out of my seat. Thank you so much this video really work for me. 🎉🎉🎉
Hello Dean, Thank you!! I listened to this in the morning, while in the car, before sitting for the 7 and Truly think it made a difference and helped me pass! Thanks again and keep sharing your knowledge- you are very generous.
These videos made such a big difference in my understanding of my weakest subjects. Munis, underwriting, and spreads/straddles. I’m happy to say I passed my Series 7 yesterday and it was in no small part to Dean’s videos here on the channel. Thanks Dean! You’re awesome!
Just wanted to thank you for your work. I passed the 7 yesterday and Cal, Push, Silo, BULLS, Dew and Cen are the major reasons why. I was struggling w/options and this video alone brought it together for me.
Thanks so much for this Dean! I was nervous as could be for my series 7 this morning, so I watched this before going in. Helped keep some important things front of mind and passed with flying colors. Thanks again!
Kudos on passing your Series 7 exam!!! This a great night or before choice. Always very gratifying when this video contributes to test taking victories like yours.
Recently found your videos Dean, I want to thank you so much for them. I was so lost with PassPerfect and just taking review finals, but this video and the other supplemental ones were like a light switch going off and things were finally connecting! Just finished my series 7 today and passed! Onto the 63 next!
Just wanted to take a second and say a HUGE thank you Dean. You are truly the man! 1st S7 my defense was lowered by crushing the SIE... failed. I decided to supplement and used your videos... made everything so clear! 2nd attempt... got a 71. I went back and just kept pounding away.. videos, pass perfect and STC... Finally PASSED!! Anyone struggling, keep chipping away. You got this! Watch the man's videos!!! Thanks again sir
Kudos on slaying your Series 7 dragon! The initial misfortune can make the victory taste sweeter. Passed two tests. Your Series 7 and a test of resiliency.
@@Series7Guru I definitely agree with you. Thanks so much again, I will be following you on the 66 journey now! Getting materials Monday. And yes, was definitely a resiliency test for me too...I feel that going through these trials, I know more about myself and know what I need to do to fight this next one.
Hi, Is there an updated version of these tips and tricks? Or are these still legitimate today? Also, have you heard the passing rate on people using training consultants series 7 material? Thank you!
A Mnemonic I learned from Kenn Finnen is (just another way to remember) ABC : Agent Brocker Commission PDM: Principal Dealer Markup PGDM (Pro Golfers Don’t Miss) : Presale Group Designated Member
FINRA has not tested order priority in a competitive municipal syndicat (PGDM) since the change over to the top off and that is why I did not include it and no longer teach it.
Dean Thank you so much! Just passed my S7 today and I used maybe 90% of the formulas and memory tricks in this video, Especially SILO, Dewcen, and EPIC. Will be recycling my success and sharing the videos that helped me with others!!!!
Hi Dean!! Thank you!! I watched this right before I took my test this morning and passed!! I found so many of your videos to be so helpful and promote your channel to anyone I know taking these exams! You’re the best! Hope you have a great day in fabulous Las Vegas!
Kudos on passing your Series 7 exam!!!! Thanks for the referrals. We are getting close to 2,500 subscribers. Hope to get to 3,000 before the channel's first year anniversary next month.
Hi Dean! Thank you for all of your lectures! Started watching your lectures a month ago after I failed my first Series 7 attempt and I took the Series 7 again today and passed!!! Very good content and helped me a lot! Thank you!
Kudos on passing your Series 7 exam! Test taking victories taste sweeter after the initial misfortune. Always very gratifying when my lectures contribute to testing victories like yours.
5:20 The way I remember the order of Nominal, Current Yield, YTM, and YTC is "Never Crap Your Yarmulke" Its goofy enough that I dont forget it ever, and it has worked everytime on the practice tests.
At the 28:43 mark when you add the net premium to the lower strike, how do we know to add it the lower strike versus subtracting it from the higher strike?
For Debit vs Credit - take the c and add arrows to it - want it to narrow. Take the D add arrows to top and bottom above/below the straight line - widen
Dean I passed on the first try! I am so happy, thanks for all of the help. You're the man! I watched every video, and they were super helpful. Now the 66 is up next!
Kudos on making your mark! One more leg to complete your test taking/registration hat trick! Always very gratifying when my videos contribute to test taking victories like yours.
Hi Dean, I take my series 7 in 2 weeks and you have helped me so so much. I currently have Kaplan and no instructor and you’ve made this make sense. Do you have any videos talking about margin? Like the math portion of it? Such as Reg T, the SMA account and excess equity? I would love to look Into that since I am having trouble learning it. Thank you!
You have been a great instructor. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us! I've learned so much by watching your channel. I take my test on Monday and I'm taking all that you've shared with me. Once again, THANK YOU!
Hey Dean, had my exam today, unfortunately got a 68%, everything you post is extremely helpful though and I definitely would've scored lower without it. I got 30 days to keep studying so i'll get it next time!
Hi Dean, I passed the series 7 today. I spent the weekend taking notes, making flash cards and watching your practice exams. The Kaplan content laid a solid groundwork and your videos and explanations and memory tricks really tied everything together. I have passed the SIE, Series 63 and now Series 7 with the your help. You are a godsend!! Thanks again
Thank you for your video. I passed my S7 exam last week. I watched this vid on the way to the exam and it was so on point especially for my dump sheet. Appreciate it ❤!
Wow thank you so much for doing this I’m taking my series 7 next Tuesday and haven’t been able to get above a 60 on my practice Test I always pick the other possible answer or the answer that applies to what I do as a CSA but it’s not necessarily what Firma requires. I’ve has to unlearn a lot of things or at least forget. It’s not that I don’t know the material but I’m just not picking the best possible answer and so to try these tracks out on my next practice test which will be tonight hopefully will help me raise my score
Dean, you are the man! I passed my series 7 earlier today, and I can honestly say the thanks belongs to you. I very much appreciate your videos, and I look forward to using you as a resource as I head to the 66. Again, thank you for your time and all the youtube videos
Dean just passed 7, thanks to you and formal & fuzzy logic. If there’s any best way to report on the test to help your channel, (should that have intrinsic value) let me know where to send any communication.
@@antonyjames988 all these are covered in other lectures. Consumer pice index and interest rates in my economics lecture and efficient market hypothesis is in the suitability exams. Here is a quick test over view. You need to know the consumer price index is used to measure inflation and constant dollars are dollars measured for inflation. I doubt you will see this on your Series 7 exam. Shows up most of the time on SIE exam and Series 65 exam. Efficient market hypothesis says that everything to be known about a security is known and is reflected in the current market price therefore active management not only doesn't work but is a waste of resources. For a believer in the efficient market hypothesis we should recommend an index mutual fund. This suitability question about efficient market hypothesis and an index fund shows up on SIE exam, Series 7 exam , Series 65 exam and Series 66 exam. There is no questions about correlation of interest rates. There are questions about the inverse relationship of interest rates and bond prices. See my debt lectures for how you can use the teeter totter or see saw to turn these type of judgement questions into aim and shoot, point and click questions. The relationship of nominal yield, current yield, yield to maturity and yield to call is testable on SIE, Series 7, 65 and 66. On SIE and 65 you are held accountable for the discount rate, fed funds rate, broker call, and prime rate. See my economics lecture. It is time stamped so you can easily find where in the lecture to find it.
Just passed this morning! U are the man! I’ve watched hours of your videos and it definitely helped me. I was actually looking forward to options questions on the exam.

I felt I had a solid basic understanding of the products. Any advice? This is my 2nd attempt. The first was 71. Took another 2 months to study.
On your printout did you miss the mark on all four areas? Anyone stand out? What was your score on function 3.
@@Series7Guru the only low performance area was Section 3 Provides customers with information, makes recommendations, maintains records.
@@Jose16633 that's helpful. That's 91 questions so if you find a few points there you will make your mark. Print the pdf from the FINRA website and checkout their breakdown of function 3.
@@Series7Guru ok thank you. How many questions do you think a 70 missed by. I was so disappointed!!
@@Jose16633 3 questionz
Would you mind to do a video on modern portfolio theory - Fundamental analysis?
Yes but it will be a while. Have to finish Series 66 and 65 test explications and practice final for 65 and 66.
Dean do you have a dump sheet I can memoriZe to write when I get to the test center?
No. I would google it and you will see some very good inspiration. Should be your own but matrix and teeter totter for sure. Thanks for participating last night. I wrote Brian up for having a bad mic. lol. Will do a sound check with him before next Tuesday live.
@@Series7Guru well hopefully next tuesday I wont be coming back for the 7 but for the 63 lol Thanks Dean!
Hey Dean should I be worried about the $250 donation limit anf the $100 max grituity?

Hi Dean, can younpñs explain BULLS. I listen to your explanation a couple times but I still don't know how to use it.
Thanks
A spread has two different strike prices. One strike price is lower than the other strike price.
For example, a spread with a 40 call and a 50 call. The lower strike price is 40.
Another example, a spread with 40 put and 50 put. The lower strike price is 40.
If you are long the 40 call (the lower strike) it a bullish meaning you want the stock to go up.
If you are long the 40 put (the lower strike) again it is a bullish spread meaning you want the stock to go up.
Just a trick.
Debit call spreads are bullish and so are credit put spreads. Have you watched the two lectures on spreads? That is more informative than tips, tricks, and memory aids.
@@Series7Guru thank for always responding. I watched your explication video and the tutoring session on spreads, and all.ofvthe videos on the target rich list. Im currently taking a practice test daily until my test on the 21st. I'll try to watch the spread videos also.
Truly appreciate your work!!
Dean, thank you so much. Huge victory. I just passed the 7. First Try. English is my second language. Finance is my third language. now I make a living with finance. 7 days intensive study (1pm to 4am). I studied STC. Final exam score was 50, 59, 65, 50. watch your video twice (Tips, Tricks & 1 hour video). It was very helpful. Kudos.
Kudos on your Series 7 testing victory! Glad you found this video helpful.
I’m taking this tomorrow and I’ve been getting upper 70’s and low 80’s and was freaking out. This makes me feel better
Dean, I just want to say I really appreciate all the work youve put into this youtube channel. I have few resources and had very little knowledge about the financial industry until this last month, but after watching most of your channel I feel prepared and confident going into taking the SIE exam this week ALL THANKS TO YOU!
Lots of SIE test takers have been victorious using the channel. I am sure you will be victorious too. Sending you good test vibes. Thanks for your kind words. Always very gratifying when my channel contributes to test taking victories.
I just passed my Series 7 today. Prior to taking the test. I had failed 4 practice exams the day before I scored a measly 54%. I watched this video on my drive to the exam, and I jotted everything he said on my scratch sheet before to the best of my ability. When the final screen said pass, I almost fell out of my seat.
Thank you so much this video really work for me. 🎉🎉🎉
You are welcome. Kudos on your Series 7 testing victory! Always very gratifying when this video contributes to testing victories like yours.
Hello Dean, Thank you!! I listened to this in the morning, while in the car, before sitting for the 7 and Truly think it made a difference and helped me pass! Thanks again and keep sharing your knowledge- you are very generous.
KUDOS on passing!!!! Glad to hear this lecture contributed.
These videos made such a big difference in my understanding of my weakest subjects. Munis, underwriting, and spreads/straddles. I’m happy to say I passed my Series 7 yesterday and it was in no small part to Dean’s videos here on the channel. Thanks Dean! You’re awesome!

Just wanted to take a second and say a HUGE thank you Dean. You are truly the man! 1st S7 my defense was lowered by crushing the SIE... failed. I decided to supplement and used your videos... made everything so clear! 2nd attempt... got a 71. I went back and just kept pounding away.. videos, pass perfect and STC... Finally PASSED!! Anyone struggling, keep chipping away.
You got this! Watch the man's videos!!! Thanks again sir
Kudos on slaying your Series 7 dragon! The initial misfortune can make the victory taste sweeter. Passed two tests. Your Series 7 and a test of resiliency.
@@Series7Guru I definitely agree with you. Thanks so much again, I will be following you on the 66 journey now! Getting materials Monday. And yes, was definitely a resiliency test for me too...I feel that going through these trials, I know more about myself and know what I need to do to fight this next one.

Hi, Is there an updated version of these tips and tricks? Or are these still legitimate today? Also, have you heard the passing rate on people using training consultants series 7 material? Thank you!
There is no need for update. All current. I think TC is thin. I recommend a supplement
A Mnemonic I learned from Kenn Finnen is (just another way to remember)
ABC : Agent Brocker Commission
PDM: Principal Dealer Markup
PGDM (Pro Golfers Don’t Miss) : Presale Group Designated Member
FINRA has not tested order priority in a competitive municipal syndicat (PGDM) since the change over to the top off and that is why I did not include it and no longer teach it.
PGDM pretty girls drive mercedes LOL

5:20 The way I remember the order of Nominal, Current Yield, YTM, and YTC is "Never Crap Your Yarmulke" Its goofy enough that I dont forget it ever, and it has worked everytime on the practice tests.
At the 28:43 mark when you add the net premium to the lower strike, how do we know to add it the lower strike versus subtracting it from the higher strike?
Call spread add to the lower. Put spread subtract from the higher. Watch the full lecture on advanced options.
Good morning. I just wanted to thank you. I passed my series 7 exam on Thursday. Your options videos and tips & tricks videos were very helpful.

Hi Dean, I take my series 7 in 2 weeks and you have helped me so so much. I currently have Kaplan and no instructor and you’ve made this make sense. Do you have any videos talking about margin? Like the math portion of it? Such as Reg T, the SMA account and excess equity? I would love to look Into that since I am having trouble learning it. Thank you!

Glad it helped!
Wow thank you so much for doing this I’m taking my series 7 next Tuesday and haven’t been able to get above a 60 on my practice Test I always pick the other possible answer or the answer that applies to what I do as a CSA but it’s not necessarily what Firma requires. I’ve has to unlearn a lot of things or at least forget. It’s not that I don’t know the material but I’m just not picking the best possible answer and so to try these tracks out on my next practice test which will be tonight hopefully will help me raise my score
Sending you good test vibes. You got this!
Dean, you are the man! I passed my series 7 earlier today, and I can honestly say the thanks belongs to you. I very much appreciate your videos, and I look forward to using you as a resource as I head to the 66. Again, thank you for your time and all the youtube videos

Efficient theory, could you please cover Consumer Price Index and raising interstatpp
Interest rates correlations
@@antonyjames988 all these are covered in other lectures. Consumer pice index and interest rates in my economics lecture and efficient market hypothesis is in the suitability exams.
Here is a quick test over view.
You need to know the consumer price index is used to measure inflation and constant dollars are dollars measured for inflation. I doubt you will see this on your Series 7 exam. Shows up most of the time on SIE exam and Series 65 exam.
Efficient market hypothesis says that everything to be known about a security is known and is reflected in the current market price therefore active management not only doesn't work but is a waste of resources.
For a believer in the efficient market hypothesis we should recommend an index mutual fund. This suitability question about efficient market hypothesis and an index fund shows up on SIE exam, Series 7 exam , Series 65 exam and Series 66 exam.
There is no questions about correlation of interest rates. There are questions about the inverse relationship of interest rates and bond prices.
See my debt lectures for how you can use the teeter totter or see saw to turn these type of judgement questions into aim and shoot, point and click questions.
The relationship of nominal yield, current yield, yield to maturity and yield to call is testable on SIE, Series 7, 65 and 66.
On SIE and 65 you are held accountable for the discount rate, fed funds rate, broker call, and prime rate.
See my economics lecture. It is time stamped so you can easily find where in the lecture to find it.
