You are the top of the tops !! I've been following more than 3 courses up to now. No one gave me the clear picture about 1) vaid strategy & reasons behind it ! 2) clear understanding of greeks usability 3) clear understanding that we have to trade with option prices changes during time and not relying of being ITM or OTM. Thanks !
This is the first time in 40 years I finally understand options. You have a natural gift breaking it down. Looking forward to going through all your videos Dr Jim. gr8 work!!!
Dr Jim, you are an impressive teacher, taking something complicated and breaking it down in a very organized, comprehensive and concise style. Looks like you are speaking off the cuff, not reading notes. Your fluid speaking style keeps me from getting me bogged down in having to work to pay attention. Well done! Thank you for the very valuable content!
This is fantastic and some of the best educational content I have seen on Tastytrade yet . Huge thanks, Dr. Jim. You've got to understand how unbelievably hard this subject is to teach and you crushed it with no hesitation. Most impressive. Thanks for the help in understanding options!
This is the 4th options video I've tried to do a deep dive in and the only one I've been able to stick with and actually glean something from. Not that some of that isn't user error, but kudos and thank you!
Dr J. its been a long time since I've attended a presentation on such a complex subject and been so impressed. The content, pacing, and structure of the program was spot on. I have a lot more to learn about options and trading but this has been a superb foundation. I can't thank you and tasty enough.
Hi Dr. Jim. First of all thank you for this, this is amazing! I just had a question regarding the strategy @ 1:21:56. In the short put vertical, the short position is 3.20usd while the long is 2.54, max profit = 0.66 While in the short call vertical, the short is 3.40usd and long is 2.59, max profit = 0.81 How is the max profit on the strategy 194 and not 147? Please correct me.
Thank you so much Sir! I feel it's better to learn from such crash course over reading books. Kindly explain about uncorrelated strategies and what are things to be considered to come up and confirm these are uncorrelated
man, this video is amazing. So much intuitive and easier to understand than the book the unlucky investor's guide to options trading. Thanks for taking the time to do it.

wow ,,,great teaching, this change my outlook on what i thought i knew about trading, i feel more focused and confident in my approach even after trading for 7yrs
excellent video!! I started trade options a couple months ago, I watched numerous videos about it... but this one is professional, given by a professional. congratulations!
At 1:21:45 on the Iron Condor setup, I don't understand how you know we're collecting 0.94 on the short put spread and 1.00 from the short call spread(?) I see the put premium on the order details at the bottom left of the screen is $0.66, and the call premium is 0.81 ... just doing the math quickly (P = 3.20-2.54; and C = 3.40-2.59).
How should one manage the situation when in Short Call Vertical Spread at expiration Price of stock is above Short Call Strike Price but lower than Long Call Strike price. and similarly In Short Put Vertical Spread
Hot dawg, this was very informative. Love that is was both macro and micro on individual positions and management as well as portfolio approach. Thanks
I loved the video, watched it all and will rewatch sections. I do have one remark. If the presenter mentions other videos it would be awesome to link those in the description, otherwise it's difficult to followup with all the references made in the material. Keep up the awesome work!
Good morning, have a question on stocks. It is my understanding that say i own a stock that is a $10.00 per share stock. and i put in a sell order GTC for $50.00 that my share could not be used for shorting. Is this true #1 and would having a covered call have the same effect ?
Thank you for this content! Are there videos on Tasty that walk through how to place, manage and close a trade on the platform and how to utilize the platform with regard to the Greeks , IVR and liquidity? You explained the concepts really well and now I’d like to understand how to put them into practice on the Tasty platform. Thank you!
We have a series called Options Trades Today where Tony walks through finding and placing a trade on the tastytrade platform! ua-cam.com/video/OE2WgpQuoLk/v-deo.html
This breakdown is awesome I have watched other options tutorials but came away with more questions than answers. This video is exactly what I have been looking for
LOVE THE COURSE Jim. Thank for your time, effort on educating us through this Options trading which looked very intimidating to me at the first. I am grateful for this and I am motivated to keep learning until i make myself capable to do some real trades.
Thanks Jim. Lovely and super useful to have all this information in one space and course. And i'm totally not surprised you were a professor before joining Tasty. Although i have to admit i did think you look too young to have been one! Keep up the great education guys!
Many thanks for the crash course. You touched on how to select candidates for trading, namely by using the default and Tom's list. Would then look at their charts to ensure that it's trading in the direction that is required. With regards to risk allocation, would you allocate 1 to 5 % per trade or per strategy? Thanks again
If we sell a put beyond the 1 SD, will the probability of the put being OTM at close still be 85% even after a few days if the stock moves or volatility increases ?
Dr Jim, in your GLD Short $164 and loss is $16k, what happens if you only have $5k in your account and that you cannot pay the balance? Will this trade be allowed anyway knowing you only have $5k? Sorry for this just a newbie in this.
The lecture was good and clear until we got to an actual Short Vertical Spread example at 1:16:51. The next few minutes are totally confusing: "This make you net positive Theta, that makes you 20 cents a day and you already on 27th" - on 27th what? 27th day? How do I know we are on 27th day? There is nothing on the screen mentions 27th day. "On trade bar Tasty is already converted to a whole number for your" - where is it on the screen? "Net Positive Delta because it is a bullish trade" - how do I know it is a bullish trade? "Net negative Vega" - is not displayed anywhere. "Max profit $100 on the credit you collected of $1dollar times 100 shares in the contract" - where did I collected it? Where this $100 came from? "Width of the spread of $3" - how is it calculated? Spread is the difference between ask and bid. Bid is 4.66 and Ask is 3.70. Where is $3 came from? Further explanation like “Spread is in the money and you have to buy it for $2.70” is utterly confusing

OMG I’m finally beginning to understand a little. I’ll have to watch this x10 to really get it God bless you.
This is fantastic and some of the best educational content I have seen on Tastytrade yet . Huge thanks, Dr. Jim. You've got to understand how unbelievably hard this subject is to teach and you crushed it with no hesitation. Most impressive. Thanks for the help in understanding options!
A Doctor in finance explaining options to us laymen. Truly this is a halcyon time. Tasty brings the very best to retail traders.
This is the 4th options video I've tried to do a deep dive in and the only one I've been able to stick with and actually glean something from. Not that some of that isn't user error, but kudos and thank you!
Dr. J & Tasty…the people need an intermediate & advanced PhD course. 🙏🏽💯💪🏽
"It is written..."

Hi Dr. Jim.
First of all thank you for this, this is amazing!
I just had a question regarding the strategy @ 1:21:56.
In the short put vertical, the short position is 3.20usd while the long is 2.54, max profit = 0.66
While in the short call vertical, the short is 3.40usd and long is 2.59, max profit = 0.81
How is the max profit on the strategy 194 and not 147? Please correct me.

Thanks for great explanations🙏
17:46 it says the max loss for a short put is unlimited. But isn’t the max loss capped at (strike_price * 100)?
Incredible job, Dr. Jim. What a fantastic delivery! This video deserves 100x the views it’s received compared to the other garbage that’s on YT.

Thank you that was a very elaborate and useful course!
Excellent. I’ve been looking for something that consolidates the tasty trading rules.
Trying to make something that is a central repository for a lot of our strategic moves - really glad that this helped you.
I wish u had tasty in Canada. So could see your watchlists
You and me both
Excelente video, haremos así para México
This is great info! Thanks just one thing you never addressed the 3-5 standard deviation move?

Preciate you so much!
Great work Dr. Jim!!
Great content, thank you!
Excellent James
This is gold! Have nothing else to say.
Very informative and knowledgeable explanation. Thanks for this
Great content as always Dr. Jim. Just a minor comments IV is higher than HV in several underlyings but not in all
Thank you! Yes, there have been times in the recent years where IV < HV, but historically, IV > HV most of the time, and that is what we're trading.
I love your content guy! Cheers from Brasil!
Thanks Jim. Lovely and super useful to have all this information in one space and course. And i'm totally not surprised you were a professor before joining Tasty. Although i have to admit i did think you look too young to have been one! Keep up the great education guys!
The Professor is in the HOUSE! Great Job!!

Great program, even for a recap. Thanks
can you please share the rolling strategy playlist
ua-cam.com/play/PLPVve34yolHY2tN8U9QySzujt1iP_YHT0.html
Thank you for this masterclass
Is atr same as expected move
Many thanks for the crash course.
You touched on how to select candidates for trading, namely by using the default and Tom's list. Would then look at their charts to ensure that it's trading in the direction that is required.
With regards to risk allocation, would you allocate 1 to 5 % per trade or per strategy?
Thanks again
Thank you so much
Wow so glad this video is back in UA-cam. Can't wait to watch it again. God Bless you
This is great but how exactly do you "stay small" on undefined risk strategies? Are you referring to small BPR?
So staying small is basically for each undefined risk position stay within 4-7% of net liq buying power.
This was great!!
Preciate you!
If we sell a put beyond the 1 SD, will the probability of the put being OTM at close still be 85% even after a few days if the stock moves or volatility increases ?
No. If the stock moves towards your put. Then the probability of expiring OTM decreases.
With IV spike, then expected move is increased aswell. So, then the probability of expiring OTM decreases as well.
Dr Jim, in your GLD Short $164 and loss is $16k, what happens if you only have $5k in your account and that you cannot pay the balance? Will this trade be allowed anyway knowing you only have $5k? Sorry for this just a newbie in this.
🙏 very educational.
Amazing thank you prof
Great comprehensive content. And very helpful to a lot of beginners like me😊
