Brian one video on crypto

[@mikep8953]

after watching the beginner video. I was under the impression that you still have to buy the shares of the call options. how are you able to buy 125 call options without buying the stock when you accept the call option? with the 10,000 example? wouldn't you be limited to 2 call options?

[@sidra_games4551]

@@mikep8953 The brokerage firm will buy the shares at $38, sell at $46 and leave you the difference assuming you exercise or wait til expiration. You will never actually be holding the shares. You don't need the funds to purchase all of the shares. Incidentally prior to expiration if the price moved in the direction you want, you can actually sell the options contracts back and their cost would be at basically $10.80 if the stock moved $10.

This is a good video for a baseline on options, thought it does not take into account the greeks. For example, if you buy an option on a stock with high implied volatility, the stock could go in your direction but you could lose more money to theta decay.

You can also buy 3X leveraged ETF's which unlike options, give you leverage without the time risk, and are usually smoother moving than any single stock. And the spreads for getting in and out are usually much tighter than stock options.

[@barrydingle3830]

I think I'm misunderstanding something. $80 is the price of option contract, but when you choose to exercise the call at $46, you still have to buy the stock at the strike price ($38) before selling it, right? That's another 125*100*$38 = $475k of capital needed before immediately selling off and profiting the $90k. Where am I wrong? Is the buy to sell transaction automatic, and are you not given the choice to hold onto the 12500 stocks you bought at a discount?

Options are the quickest way to go broke. People should do practice trade until they figure things out. Once they think they’re good enough, only trade the ‘best’ 30% of the time. The other 70% of the time observe what goes on the the market, own predictions and economy. It’s virtually impossible to do single day trading because that’s dominated by computer trading systems. Figure out a longer time period to fully execute your trades. Sell quickly if things go opposite of what you predicted would happen. Always be able to answer the question “Why do I think this will be a successful trade”
