Im subscriber to your teachable. But what i really like to know is, how do anticipate the moves, rather then the technical Options Strats

[@petergilson4861]

Hi Chris, how do you choose and select your trades (what underlying stocks) and setup (what option strategy): How do you select good candidates for this strategy; what criteria, indicators, tools, ... do you use to set up your trade. And second; what is your exit strategy? It would be very helpful to know this to set up my own trades.

[@eversunnyguy]

You are a great teacher of options. Plus your colorful slides are rich !.

[@projectfinance]

[@gabbys3288]

This is the best video explaining spreads and execution. Thank you for providing examples and live trading on the Tasty platform…

[@projectfinance]

Thank you for the comment! I appreciate that and I’m glad it was a helpful format for you.

[@petergilson4861]

As usual when you post something; a comprehensive, structured and informational explanation of what a bull call spread means. Thanks again Chris. After watching this, My big question mark is how to choose your trades and setup: How do you select good candidates for this strategy; what criteria, indicators, tools, ... do you use to set up your trade. And second; what is your exit strategy? It would be very helpful to know this to set up my own trades. Thanks again Chris and keep up the great work! Cheers, Peter

[@JasonMattern]

That was one of the best explanations of spreads and break even prices that I’ve ever seen. Great video!

[@projectfinance]

Awesome I’m glad to hear it! Thank you for the support and comment 🙏🏼

On March 5th, 2024, imagine if the MSTR calls were expiring in April or May?! Great video as usual! I think for many traders who tend to experience losses more then profits, the key is when to enter and when to exit, that’s the missing golden information.

[@projectfinance]

Right! Luckily I still have naked 850 calls in DEC 2025! So far so good. Entering and exiting trades is key info for sure, and that's not a topic that is black and white because every situation is different. Entering trades is based on a prediction/thesis and having conviction in that thesis. Without conviction, I think it's very hard to enter trades, and especially hold them through profits and losses. In this case, my thesis is it's the start of a bitcoin bull run and there are many positive catalysts that can drive the price way higher, bringing MSTR along with it. As the BTC price goes up, my conviction in holding the option plays will diminish, but it's my opinion that there's a long way to go.

​@projectfinance holy shiii! I'm jealous lol. Keep on killin it!

[@kenearnest3921]

THANK YOU, I have started options trading and have watched so many you tube videos and yours is the first one that helped me understand with that "aha" moment if you know what I mean!

[@trevongroup5320]

Thanks for the colorful and clear explanations for options trading. One question though, at what delta do you consider to buy the call in a bull call spread?

[@couldbanyone9318]

Thanks Chris, great video, very well explained. Your delivery is fantastic, keep up the good work.

[@govinlala9278]

Thanks for the knowledge that builds our confidence level.

[@patricktst6057]

Great flow and well articulated. Can consider adding on a subtopic explaining the process and consideration of specifying the buy & sell leg based on stock price vs using option premium price.

[@MT-oh2pu]

In those cases it is better to do a DIAGONAL LEAPS CALL , like 180DTE buy call and selling call at delta 30 every month?

[@ahmadibrahim1228]

Perfect video, i wish you included IMP volatility in this video to see how much will it affect.

[@laszlosoltesz3772]

Another excellent video, thank you

[@korolova21]

Hey, Chris! Let's say the price rapidly dropped down, would it be ok to buy back the short position to lock some profit (of course if we expect the bounce back up), and then sell it again when the price goes up?

[@ronjoseph7973]

Being a debit spread, what if any advantage would there be over a short put credit spread, where the profit objectives are essentially the same, a rise in the price of the underlying?

[@marcelsnip4222]

Thank you, very informative. I fully understand the principles of a bull call spread but I struggle with choosing the days till expiration and the strike prices. Do you take the greeks into consideration for this and do you take at least 30 days dte? For riskmanagement I usually take a 10 point wide spread and then I look at risk to reward usually 1 : 2 at least.

[@ossentoo]

thanks. very good explanation of the pros and cons between bull call spread and naked call optons

My daughter makes more on a good weekend with her lemonaid stand.

[@user-wp9ti4xp5f]

Thank you sir for this great video.

[@projectfinance]

You’re welcome thanks for watching!

[@alexcheng7]

Thanks for the nice, easy to understand explanation. Do we need to close the spreads before expiry, in the situations where the stock price is in between the strike prices, or if the stock price is below the lower call strike prices? Thanks!

[@projectfinance]

Thanks for watching! Yes I would recommend closing the spreads before expiration, especially if only one call is ITM or the stock is anywhere close to the long strike if it’s OTM.

[@TomDeutsch]

Great job as usual, thanks for doing these.

[@j.k6580]

sister tip off, love it

[@jaikrishnan2988]

Need video for bull call spread adjustment sir

[@marsdam]

so, looong i didnt received your videos!!! pelase do more!

[@projectfinance]

Working on more!

[@rupankarmandal1162]

How much margin it required for one bull call spread?

[@projectfinance]

The cost/risk of the spread. So if you buy a 100 call for $500 and sell a 105 call for $200, the net cost/risk is $300. That is the margin requirement.

[@MrNyikan]

How can you prove that you didn’t get lucky that your stock just went up 30 percent while holding the spread? I mean sounds like a very risky trade, what about in the money spreads?

[@eveotieno5491]

Do you offer one on one training?

[@Financedude007]

Thanks

[@borisrazmiki8296]

So why not just buy a call and sell it later when the price of the stock goes up? Buying a single call will also limit your losses and does not cap your gains.

[@YIWOTY]

Thanks for pointing out that the max loss on bull call spreads is 100%. Obviously speculative and not something that should be done with a material amount of your portfolio. But IMO trading BCSs on MSTR (essentially Bitcoin) is pure gambling. Just my opinion.

[@projectfinance]

The shorter the time frame, the more it is gambling IMO. I am trading any shorter-term (

[@PMSTACKER3000]

Regarding the previous post: I am aware that if a counterparty were to early-exercise my short leg they would be paying extrinsic value - people, however, do stupid things.

[@projectfinance]

And you would benefit by the amount of extrinsic value. It would be a blessing to get assigned on an option with lots of extrinsic value as the benefit accrues to you
