    1% theta decay seems like a lot. IS that 1% of the Margin Used or 1% of Net Liq (i.e. $100k Net Liq Portfolio, $50k Margin for Options). 1% of Margin used would be $500 / per day. seems more reasonable, or 0.5% of Net Liq. This being a general target

      The options equivalent of their sports book example would be if you could buy calls or buy puts, but NOT sell calls or puts. So yes you can buy the Blackhawks to lose, but you're still paying the bookmaker's price, not (necessarily) a fair market price.

    You use only 10% of Portfolio Cash to trade to protect yourself. $2500 x 10% = $250. So $250 x 1% = $2.50

    • @KayP1
      @KayP1 3 роки тому

      But that's not a realistic approach. With margin or cash secured, u don't get that 1% return on the portfolio, unless u play extremely high IV. With futures options possible but not stock options.

Listening to any of these tasty guys they talk a mile a minute and seem to be all over the place talking about alpha dog upside with equal quasi downside coupled with theta copulation taking upside downside theta decay on price action of weeklies of percent decay times actual cost conference times 65. What the hell is all that shit!!! Spell the shit out talk a little slower and know that you have people that aren't experts listening trying to learn something new.

    • @cruisemates
      @cruisemates 5 років тому +3

      Tom is hard to follow when he explains things - and sometimes I don't know if I am missing something or if he is saying something the wrong way (I could point out the most confusing videos but I won't). Tony usually catches it when that happens but not always. Anyway - you really have to go through all of the learning and also start trading these options to get a handle. It does get easier. It is also important to remember that this is an evolving process even for these giys. I have only been here a month or so, but I have already figured out some of the things they said 5 years ago (about managing, etc) have changed over time.

      I realize your comment was about a year ago, but if you are still at a novice level for options trading, I'd suggest starting with videos from many of the other professionals on UA-cam. Once you have a more solid understanding, coming back here will be extremely helpful. These videos are for new traders, but I'd say they are for upper level new traders at best.
