    How to use implied volatility to make money trading options. Options for beginners - it's important to understand how implied volatility works and how it affects your option price. Once you understand this you can better determine how to make option trades, and what will bring you profit, and what will lose you money (..so you can not do that lol).

    I realized that the secret to making a million is saving for a better investment. I always tell myself you don't need that new Maserati or that vacation just yet. That mindset helped me make more money investing. For example last year I invested 80k in stocks (with the help of my Financial Advisor of course) and made about 246k, but guess what? I put it all back and traded with her again and now I'm rounding up close to a million.

      @@Maricel_oronan Be careful not to jump into trading without any proper training because it can be very detrimental. Many folks jump into trading only to suffer great loss at the very beginning. Do not try to imitate a professional traders, better still ask questions. Get the services of a professional stock expert or a licensed broker.

      Hopefully your trading platform offers you the ability to look at a historical implied volatility chart for a given stock. Then you can simply assess visually if the current IV is high or low based on the past.

    The point is vola is low when markets are complacent, flooded by money e.g.. In such cases valuations are also high which for a contraraian investor (buy low) is something that could be a holdback. What do you think?

      In my opinion, it's best to start with defined-risk strategies like credit spreads, debit spreads, and iron condors. Once you gain more confidence and experience, you can attempt more risky strategies like selling cash-secured puts, covered calls, strangles, etc.

    @kerrytom4731 Рік тому

    So that's good explanation basically easy to understand. But How do you go about doing a vertical spread? Do you use the Put bear spread, Call bear spread? and use it in the credit/debit spread? I can see using it on a stand alone buying or selling option. Maybe you can do another episode explaining on using volatility on doing the four type of vertical spreads? That would be helpful! It would be nice if you can have sample scenarios. A picture/photo is a lot better than a thousand words.

    Thanks Alex, but I don't understand. So does the VIX only matter at the time of the trade or does it play a continuing factor as you hold the option? I have successfully sold puts on GOLD with VIX around 30-40. Seems like once the option is purchased the deal is sealed. Obviously, I'm still learning.

    • @HSLsavage
      @HSLsavage 2 роки тому

      Both. Knowing the VIX at the time of the trade can help maximize premium.
      Knowing the VIX as you hold can help you know if it’s a good time to close or buy back your options to secure a larger portion of your premium.
      Side note: yes the deal is sealed once the option is purchased but you can always close the option prior to expiration if you want to avoid getting assigned or want to secure profit

    • @johannesburnett7847
      @johannesburnett7847 2 роки тому +1

      What’ll really spin your head around is that selling a Put equates to agreeing to buy 100 shares of a stock while selling a Call obligates you to sell 100 shares and buying either one of those gives you the right to do the opposite. 🤪
      Don’t worry, you can figure it out, you just need to keep trying to understand options and watching videos and it will eventually start to make sense. Options are confusing for everyone at first. It might help you to know that NO ONE understood options when they were first invented. It took a couple of analysts finally creating a formula for the price of an option for people to finally understand how they even worked or how to calculate them. It’s kind of crazy. All this stuff about the Greeks? Yeah, nobody understood any of it back when it all started.
