Just got out of the exam room and PASSED my 7, thanks Dean! Telling you before calling my mom because that’s how integral of a part you played in my success!

[@Series7Guru]

Lol. Thsnks. Kudos on your Series 7 testing victory!

[@ronthomas7947]

By God’s grace I passed my series 7 on the first try. Your videos have been very helpful and easy to understand during my studying period and truly appreciate you for posting the videos on KZbin for all of us to use for free. Thank you

I passed my exam today! I was completely distraught just a couple days ago because I just couldn’t understand options. This video really turned things around for me. Thank you sir!!!

[@Series7Guru]

Kudos! Always very gratifying when this video contributes to test taking victories like yours .

[@DavidOrtiz-y8p]

Thank you so much, Dean! A good way to remember Widen and Narrow is you always want to WIDEN your DEBIT card account and NARROW your CREDIT card account! I still think its much easier to just count the number of letters in each word.

[@Series7Guru]

Great tip!

[@issacsalinas99]

Best tip I’ve heard, this stuck with me so well. I used it to pass my 7.

[@elizabethj.bigelow7649]

Spreads and straddles have really been stressing me out, even with rewatching the videos in my curriculum. This video really helped make it click for the first time and I got all of your practice questions right. What a relief! Thank you for all you do!

[@Series7Guru]

Glad it clicked. Definitely get you some points on your exam. Always very gratifying when a video helps it click with a test taker like yourself.

[@kristinalandgraf7066]

Can't thank you enough for these videos, just passed my 7 this morning! I got several extremely challenging options questions, one was involving profit/loss on a collar, several others with no premium given and you had to sort out what was going on. Also a couple tax and cost basis questions related to options and covered calls....need to really have it nailed down so anyone taking the test - practice, practice, practice in this area!!

[@Series7Guru]

Kudos on passing your Series 7 exam! Practice, drill, rehearse is good advice. Inch by inch options are cinch. Yard by yard options are hard. Thanks for paying it forward with your advice and debrief. What's next? 63? 66?

Hey there I am near the end of my studying here for the Series 57. feeling pretty comfortable with almost everything and ready to schedule the exam. The one thing I am thinking how much to spend more time on is. Advanced options strategies, Condors, Butterflys, Etc. Do you find these these Advanced Options strategies are tested often on the Series 57 Exam. I feel pretty comfortable with Straddles and Spreads. Wondering how much to deep dive into these other more complex ones.

[@Series7Guru]

They are not.

[@armonafdjeie]

@@Series7Guru Appreciate the reply!

[@dannysalas4477]

Hello Guru, quick question...For Net Debit, is the difference in the premiums always the 'Max Loss' and for Net Credits, is the difference in premiums always the 'Max Gain'? Thank you for all the content! I take my 2nd pass at the 7 this Thursday. Hope all is well with you!

[@Series7Guru]

Yes

[@ellll03434]

Hi Dean ! my TC says that the break even on a spread bull call is is Long exercise add net debit … but yours shows differently .. I’m confused now 😕

[@Series7Guru]

The breakeven in a call spread (debit or credit) is C. A. L Call Add to the Lower. You add the net premium (debit or credit) to the lower strike. I am sure no discrepancy just being explained differently. Do one. You will at the same breakeven.

[@EliGutie]

@@Series7Guru there was a question on there where the client wants to buy 10 bonds and there is a list of bonds some at discoun,t, others and premium and it asked which ones would be the ones to buy for the clients . Super weird question Another one was where there was a long all with a lremium of 3 and short call with a premium of 4 and the question was what the cap gain/loss was but they said that they bought the long call at 5 and sold the short call at 2 Im not sure exact terminology but those questions were the ones that threw me for a loop Hopefully you may understand what they were asking 😂 Thanks again Dean!

[@Series7Guru]

@@EliGutie that was a credit spread opened for a net credit of 1 and closed for a net debit of 3. Speead widened from 1 to 3. Customer lost 2 points. You would not sell the short call. You woukd buy it back.

GURU10 doesn't work in Kaplan's checkout.

[@Series7Guru]

It is now Guru15. 15% instead of 10%.

[@DITOXXIV]

how do you know whether bearish vs bullish?

[@Series7Guru]

On spreads the larger premium. Straddles are not bullish or bearish.

[@DITOXXIV]

@@Series7Guru thank you!

[@derekchecketts8461]

wow! just spent several hours on kaplan they need to link this in their videos nothing on straddles at all in the videos.

[@natashab7981]

Where I am struggling is knowing the MG and ML for straddles?

[@natashab7981]

Wait I think I found the info I was looking for long straddle MG UNLIMITED ML net debit short straddle MG net credit ML unlimited

[@Series7Guru]

Correct but it is not net it is total premium. Total debit. Not net debit. Total credit. Not net credit.

[@emilyyu655]

A customer buys 1 XYZ Aug 50 put at 1 and sells 1 XYZ Aug 65 put at 10 when XYZ is at 58. If XYZ is at 52 at expiration, the customer has.? The equation didn’t work on this one

[@Series7Guru]

Breakeven is 56 and bullish. 52 is 4 points in the wrong direction. 4 point or $400 loss.
