Ive been looking everywhere for an answer to this question.... Who sets the option price points for purchase? And how would i go about getting contracts that are way OTM rn set for month and months in the future? Lets say TSLS is $100 right now and i want to buy or sell a put for 18 months from now at a price of $5. I cant seem to find any way to buy contracts that are more than around $10 plus or minus the current price even if i look at 600days out. So where do i go to find these contracts?
Great video as always. Question: I am trying to decide between buying a call/leap option vs buying shares for the same amount of money. With owning sticks it’s 100% delta, vs with ITM call leaps it could be 70%-80-% delta + you have the pressure of expiry date. Why would somebody own leaps ? Owning stocks makes more sense. What do you folks think?
The reason to buy LEAPS is you can earn higher percentage returns vs. just buying the stock, especially if you buy ATM or OTM LEAPS and the stock makes a big, favorable move. Owning stocks makes more sense for an investor who doesn't have a short-term time frame for their bullishness and doesn't want the stress of an expiration date.
Chris, if one has a buy call option and decides not to exercise the contract and the contract expires will the buyer be stuck with that contract price or does it simply just get deleted and you one loses their premium? Trying to figure out if one has to exit a contract prior to expiration.
It expires and buyer loses premium. Happened to me a few times. Best thing is to sell and collect the pennies. When you are a buyer you can’t be forced to buy, even if the contract is ITM. You can choose.
Question! I have a in the money Apple option with 80% profit, its expires 19JAN24. What is the ideal time window to sell? As close to expire date as possible or few weeks out?
It depends on your outlook for AAPL. If you think it will continue higher then wait. Also consider the return you've captured. Do you think you can capture 100%, 200%, 300% return? If so, keep holding. If not, sell. Hope this helps
@@G33KST4R i'm confused, i thought that the value just always goes to zero if you let it go to expiration no matter how much your price has gone up. is this not the case? how do you make a profit if you let it go to expiration?

The Broker gives you the Premium at Expiry. Ask your Broker how they manage this situation

LEAPS that are in the money tend to stay in the money. I would honestly hold to close with a good company like AAPL
