    Hey Henry, in your 1st example you are buying a $160 call on TSLA for $80.60 in essence creating a break even of $240.60 on the stock. Then selling the 230 call for $5.25 lowering your breakeven to $235.35. If the stock rises to $230.01 on expiration you are locking in a loss of $4.34 or $434. To ensure a profit you would have to sell a covered call above the breakeven to begin with otherwise there is a chance for a guaranteed loss right off the bat…..

    • @rogergeyer9851
      @rogergeyer9851 2 роки тому +20

      First, there are NO option trades (or stock trades) you can make that don't have risk of loss as well as chance of gain. If you don't want to risk loss, try treasury bills, but you'll lose on inflation and taxes there.
      Second, the long $160 call is 14 months out. So if the stock goes to $230 in a month, that LEAPS call goes way up (still having 13 months left), and you keep a big profit on the call you sold as well. You can always buy such calls back, and if you wait until expiration day and the stock goes to $230,01, you could buy it back bear the close for 5 cents or something. Then you could sell the next month's covered call for another $5 or so WELL out of the money. Or close out the whole trade for a NICE profit.
      It's important you KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING (and talking about) when understanding how option trades will work out.
      If you want to talk about realistic risk, if the market stays weak and Tesla goes down a lot, you'd lose a lot more on your long LEAPS call than the $525ish you gain on the call you're short.
      I'm NOT recommending anything or saying any of this is good or bad. Just pointing out that what you're claiming isn't right, and I think it's because you're making bad assumption. You don't HAVE to lock in anything. And if you got out, in the case you mention, you'd make SIGNIFICANT money, NOT lock in a loss.
      The main caveat here is it's FAR easier to make videos, claim people will get rich, etc. and earn money on clicks than to actually MAKE money over time trading options. Think about it. Why are all these folks making so many UA-cam videos if they're such great traders instead of relaxing and living on their vast trading earnings?

    We are currently in the jaws of the worst bear markets I have seen, the average stock has been cut in half, and the only way to make money this year has been to either short or to trade long in very short time frames. I'm still at a crossroads deciding if to liquidate my dipping $117k stock portfolio, what’s the best way to take advantage of this bear market?

    Question: other channels suggest buying a shorter term long call while you go for a LEAP call 12-24 months to expiration. It seems to me that going for a LEAP is more expensive (obviously) but also has less risk compared to a 90 day long call. Do you agree?

      It won't be 1/3 the price, in the money options have intrinsic value. You still have to buy the 100 shares of stock at the strike price, and by the time you sell the shares for market price you'll probably end up at a loss because you paid a premium for the contract as well

    • @yieldyourdestiny3326
      @yieldyourdestiny3326 Рік тому +1

      you need to roll the option. Most times when you roll, yes you first have to pay hefty prices for rolling, but the credit you end up getting after the expiration ends up being more profitable.
      Example. if you sell a pmcc on apple at $100. you get a credit of 3.00. But now price is $110. More than likely to roll this new sell pmcc at $110, you will have to pay a debit of around $6.70 (im guessing here)
      But because you now have a 10 point spread, your actual gain at expiration will be $11.00 (or $1100) assuming apple expired above $110.
      This is what most rollers do. Do your research

    New subscriber here. Just found you and what a goldmine of information.
    I've been trading crypto this past year or so and am forever getting spiked and stopped out, just to see the coin/token continue in my original direction shortly after and it's really starting to get me down, so I'm thinking this might be a alternative solution with some of my coins just sitting in my spot wallet not doing much.
    I understand the DELTA part of around 80%. That would allow me to pick up one Bitcoin with a $25k strike at $5k but since Bicoin is a lot more volatile than most stocks, I'm thinking of covering with weekly opposed to monthly contracts.
    With a current BTC price of $30k, would you recommend the same 10-15% above market or a little less?

Remember you have to have a lot more winners than losers to make money. In this example you could win this trade 3 times, but one loss would wipe out the other three profits. That's the way with options, need a lot more winners than losers, not 56 percent but at least 80 percent winners.

    Hey Hanrahan what happens is the stock goes past the call I sell should I close it before so and take the L cause nobody ever talks about what happens if the call I sell goes in the money absolute worst case blows past my call? I heard I lose the difference between the 2 options if so that is soooo risky and blows cause you don't lose shit on the stock. Now if they just take my long option and I keep the credit but get reimbursed for my long call like a regular covered call great so what happens buddy please clarify for me

    If you know how to make lots of money trading options, why not do so? Why present such ideas to UA-cam watchers, and then often lose them LOTS of money, which you frequently do, looking at some of your videos over the past 18 months, where you recommend buying expensive calls and LEAPS calls on stocks like Tesla, Palantir, NIO, etc.

    Instead of doing a PMCC by buying a deep ITM call ($160 strike for $8000), can you accomplish the same thing even cheaper by doing a Poor Man's Call Credit Spread by buying a way OTM call like the $825 strike for $2.65?

      I think potentially that could work but if the delta of the call you are buying is lower than the one you are selling you risk losing money if the stock goes up

      @@BeekFreak If the stock stays flat for the next 12 months, due to decay you lose about $1600 on the ITM call while only $265 max on the OTM call. If your goal is to collect premium as cheaply as possible, and you think the stock will stay flat or go down, then I think buying the way OTM call makes more sense than the ITM call.

    How do you close the option/spread ? if you buy a call and sell a call and you’re ready to get out of the position a few weeks later because you’ve made some profit etc.
