[@autotrip5]

Great explanation. LEAPS are great for everything you said and you can also sell PMCC's along the way for premium at lower cost. LEAPS can only be tricky with a global market frame shift event like in March of last year especially if your contract is too close to expiration and you lack the time to ride the recovery that owning 100 shares of the underlying would allow. For that reason I tend to not hold them all the way or too close to expiration. Ideally look for a sweet spot to sell where there's still liquidity so you don't lose all the EV and before rapid theta decay takes place.

Preach. Love this. LEAPS and covered calls are so reasonable of an investment strategy that it seems hard to justify *not* doing them for even the most conservative investors. Question: for those of us who can't afford a 0.7+ delta LEAP, what are advantages/disadvantages to using 1+ year OTM (maybe 0.3 or 0.4 delta) calls? I know you are banking on reasonably significant movement of the stock and theta is much higher (comparatively at least), but it seems like a happy medium given that I don't have enough to buy deep ITM. Thanks again for the great videos. I've learned more from you than just about anyone else.

[@bibieight2244]

Awesome explanation of LEAPs. You opened my mind.Thank you for that. I have ONE question: why should LEAPs be so deep in the money and have a delta of almost 1? I’ve done some calculantions and it seems that such approach requires a higher investment for a lower return than buying a LEAP -a long call with 1 or 2 years to expiration- at the money. Could you please explain this to me? I will start investing in LEAPs and this is a big issue still unclear to me. Thanks!! I will continue watching more of your videos.

[@mikeb3419]

Maybe I missed it, but I don't think you mentioned that you can sell calls against your LEAPS option , reducing even further the cost basis of your LEAPS option (poor man's covered call). Even if the underlying hits the strike price on the call you're selling, you have plenty of time left in your LEAPS option long leg to roll the short leg up and out for another credit. If you have a small account, this is the strategy you need to be using to grow your account.

So if you wanted to short a company, would it be generally better to buy leap puts to limit your risk over just shorting? Thank you.

There are many ways you can short a stock. I recently like using ZEBRAs to create synthetic short positions. You get the 1:1 gain to the downside; but have a max loss of the debit you paid to enter the trade, You could buy leaps, but to be a synthetic short, you'd have to buy at .9 delta which could take quite a bit of capitol.

Don't forget that you can also sell covered calls against your LEAPS.

[@Failed4life_RS]

How would that work if the covered call went bad and got exercised? Would Robinhood automatically exercise your call and then sell the shares at the covered call price, still netting a profit?

[@francisgilbertson2976]

@@Failed4life_RS Any competent broker would not do such a thing. You would lose all of that extrinsic value. What this person is refers to is Poor Man's Covered Call(PMCC). You don't want the short to be exercised since you're trying to make some side passive income and reduce the overall theta of your long call. So you want to sell a bit OTM. In case an exercise of the short occurs you can buy the 100 stock and lose the difference between the strikes - the premium you received. Just make sure you sell before the 1 hour before the market close and take the loss if it goes way above your strike price you can make it back later with the premium. It wont be much of a loss either since your long premium will increase due to the delta. If your long call does not have much of extrinsic value anymore then it's likely that the broker will exercise it. You would profit either way.

[@randallewebb]

This was a VERY WELL DONE video with explanation. The reason people DON"T like LEAPS is because they "Cost so much!!". But like you laid out, what you are paying for is MORE INTRINSIC VALUE and less extrinsic value. I think you guys do not understand. The whole reason you use a LEAP option is because it is a MUCH cheaper way to own the stock. Especially if the Delta is REALLY deep ITM like .95. Even if the stock goes down ,the most of a delta of an option can be is 1.00. So you can't lose that much there. Also if you are going to be doing this, there is ABSOLUTELY NO REASON you would hold the LEAP to expiration. The biggest reason is that the theta decay begins to increase exponentially. About 3 months to expiration. So you would roll this LEAP to a new LEAP and repeat the process all over again. Also the extrinsic value you are dealing with that he mentioned can EASILY be gotten in the first 1 - 2 months selling weekly/monthly options against that stock (or something else). By that point you have NOTHING to FEAR on losing the extrinsic value EVERY AGAIN in the future. If you are looking to hold something for a year or more this is a no-brainer.

[@realmisr]

@@randallewebb thanks! that's helpful. What would you say is a good range for Delta and Theta (if it matters at all) to do leaps? Would anything above .8 be good? Also, is it smart to always go for the furthest date out if it was allowed? Say, 2 years later.

[@tnnrhpwd]

I was just reading an article about LEAPS online, and they mentioned that implied volatility (vega) also impacts your final profit.

[@JBT97]

I'm not an expert, so correct me if I'm wrong. I'm guessing RH would sell your leaps, or they would exercise it and you'd owe money, showing a negative balance you'd have to pay ASAP. However, you will always be able to sell your contract, just at not the price you'd like. Algos will price accordingly so that they can benefit off of a wide bid-ask. Picking an underlying with no volume/interest and a call that is very deep ITM will result in a wider spread. It's one of the small drawbacks of buying a leap. You buy a leap, paying more than the mid-price and later on sell less than the mid-price. . . but hopefully, the underlying has risen to where you have an overall greater increase on return while only putting a fraction of money up in the first place.

[@MILMI123]

While I'm a huge fan of stock picking,I have made a few rather modest investments in individual companies.There are so many stocks going to rocket in the long run..I put $150k into some growth stocks with Mr Hovik Morten who handles my investments..some of my picks are AAPL, BNGO, NASDAQ, TSLA, I've gotten 88% on returns so far this year(getting my portfolio at 630k),I'll keep holding to see where it goes and how much I'll still earn

That do you do if you lose the liquidity and don’t have the funds to exercise it?

[@ben3559]

It differs from broker to broker, but basically either the broker will exercise for you and hold it themselves, or just find you a buyer at a certain % lower than the actual value of the option’s intrinsic

[@jeffshackleford3152]

you either sell the option or you let it expire worthless. You should be selling near term calls against the long term calls you have. You can use the money gained from near term calls to buy the shares.

Would you still incur a taxable event if you exercised your leaps and kept the shares? In that case, you aren't realizing your gains yet. You just put in a fraction of buying power in order to delay paying for 100 shares.

[@futureofvegas]

You are exactly right brother. No taxes until you SELL. If you exercise, you are buying.

[@ltpotter]

@@futureofvegas Just remember that you then need an additional year before you sell before you're taxed at long term capital gains. If you sell before then it's taxed as regular income and they use your cost basis from where you started the option to decide your profits I believe. Not a tax professional, this is just how I interpreted someone's explanation on it, so take it with a grain of salt.

[@futureofvegas]

@@ltpotter all good brother!!! Hey this is a forum for expanding and learning. I'm a super long term investor so I'm not necessarily worried about taxes but the point should be noted if that is the case.

@@ltpotter i personally want to get shares for the cheap, and sell calls against them to collect premium to reinvest so my goal is to acquire shares, but sell options.

How the Premium is taxed. I hear someone say it wasn't, that it goes instead to reducing the base cost of the underlying

thanks for explaining this so well, but just one question from me; what is a good in the money strike price to choose for this LEAPS? How deep is deep?

Assuming there is no liquidity and I don't have enough funds to exercise, what happens then?

[@livingobject]

Then it's best to let it expire. You are just out the premium

[@RoboMagician]

how should I decide the strike price for this strategy? is it usually a little less than half of the stock price?

So if you own a stock that goes up 100 percent after you own it but instead you bought leaps on the same day your options would usually go up in value alot more then the 100 percent on the stock right? Own the stock get 100 percent, own otm leaps more like 300 or 400 percent? Thanks

[@gruponemesis]

silly question here...but what if you have no buying power to exercise the option? true story bro

[@TKtkSnowrunner]

You can't buy 100 shares if you don't have the money. You have the option to exercise but you need the capital to do so. Plan on selling your option unless you have the capital to exercise

[@camai75]

So when buying a LEAPS, is point to exercise the option at the expiration date? If the share price went up since you bought it, and wouldn’t you profit (unrealized gain) on the share price increase? Or do you buy the LEAPS to sell options against it, then “sell to close” the LEAPS options before the expiration date?

@@Slydeish bro how can I learn

[@Slydeish]

@@ayomide9887 Watch all the videos on this guy's channel, but the two strategies I use personally, research Cash Secured Puts and the Poor Man's Covered Calls (PMCC). Some KZbinrs also call them Synthetic Covered Calls or Surrogate Covered Calls, but they are all just a Poor Man's Covered Call (PMCC). Cash Secured Puts are my absolute favorite investing tool, but PMCCs are fantastic for stocks you are Bullish on long term but want to make income on while the underlying LEAPS grows with the stock. Remember, trading has many risks, educate yourself on the type of investment that fits your goals, otherwise it's just gambling and you might as well go to a casino. Watch as many videos as you can on PMCC and Cash Secured Puts. I have been using them for years but I still watch videos on them to see how others perceive them and their risks and sometimes I am inspired by what someone is using the positions for, ideas that have been productive. Have a good 2021 and be responsible. Trading is a business just like running a hair salon or coffee shop.

I have always known of LEAPS, but did not fully understand the benefits of this strategy! Thank you!

[@djayjp]

Disagree: it's riskier owning call options. Invested amount x can be 100% lost with either, but call options yields a 100% loss at anything less than a very specific price or at a very specific time, whereas stocks only result in a total loss if it reaches 0 (extremely unlikely in an index) and even if the stock did reach 0, you have the ability to wait as long as you want to see if the value will go back up, something you don't have with options. Call options can result in a total loss if the price is far above 0 at "near" expiration. Therefore you are wrong.

[@walt4153]

Hi Adam, I really learn a lot from your videos, thank you so much. One question about LEAPS, please: One difference between buying a stock and buying a LEAP on that stock is the equity, if you buy that stock, vs. no equity for the LEAP. What do you think about this? Or maybe I just don't understand something basic about LEAPs?
