I am an old-timer who has been selling call options on my dividend portfolio for a while now. I am retired and have free time. I wish I had discovered this information decades earlier! Many people might find this useful, so thank you very much. My retirement has undoubtedly benefited from selling covered calls.

A lot of folks downplay the role of advlsors until being burnt by their own emotions. I remember couple summers back, after my lengthy divorce, I needed a good boost to help my business stay afloat, hence I researched for licensed advisors and came across someone of utmost qualifications. She's helped grow my reserve notwithstanding inflation, from $$275k to $850K...

Hi, SMB, first of all I want to thank you for your contents you put out every week. I am grateful I can always count on you guys to provide world class video information on trading. When I watch one of your long training videos, I always like to stop and take notes while I am watching to make sure I understand everything you are teaching. Since your videos teaches so well and clear, I rarely have questions that cant be answered just by watching a few more times. However, for the 1st time, I do have a question on one of your slides on put options. It states "If the put buyer is wrong: Call seller just pockets the premium he received for taking the bet". Does the put buyer buy from a call seller or a put seller? both?

If the put buyer is wrong (the stock price doesn't drop below the strike price), the put option expires worthless, and the put seller keeps the premium.

Sorry Question: When I place a Call and it is on money do I cover from the strike price till the market price the buyer? or I just sell my shares at the strike price then " he cash the rest from the market" ?

[@sethfreudberg4750]

Joshua, I need you to rephrase your question. I'm not sure what you are asking. Are you talking about covered calls here?

[@justinbridgez]

your shares will be sold at the strike price you sold regarldess of price, as long as its in the money. again maybe rephrasing as i didnt understand the question. so ima give an answer to a few diff things you could be asking. that being one, if you owned shares from 50 sold 100 call and price closed at 110 you keep the premium and you sell those shares for 100. (more profit) but not as much as 110 in open market. this will also happen automatically as a call seller. if you bought the call and the price is above that stike price. you get to buy 100 shares at that stike price no matter how much higher the stock price is marked in the open market. example you buy an 8$ call while the stock price is 6.50. duriing the time of owning the call the stock rallys huge on earnings or some event to say 20$ you get to buy 100 shares for 8$ aa piece OR you can just sell the option out right if you dont want to exercise. hope that helps.

18:38 There is an error here correct??? 2950-2750 = 200 NOT 20… it seems like this should be corrected as the video is made for beginners and may cause confusion.

[@RobertoBlackpeppercapital]

Thank you Seth. I enjoyed your delivery. I noticed a couple of times the numbers did not jive. Example, at 56:54 you keep referring to 1800 when the strike price of both Short Call and Short put is 1880.

[@batk0427]

@ 8:11, didn't he mean PUT seller pockets premium?

[@legger999]

I agree. Slide should say PUT seller. Shows CALL seller. The guy says Call seller also. Should have said PUT seller.

GAUTHIER6 💯 ..that's it

[@jonschlottig9584]

Great intro - i have a ton to learn!!!

[@jaykyle7245]

What is a good options platform? I have Tradingview and it's like using a sledgehammer to drive a tack.

[@legger999]

Trying to learn. I've only gotten in as far as 6:38, and confused already. The example being told is done in May of some year. And the expiration is in June. At 6:38, the guy in the blue shirt talks about the stock price going down, and says "...stock sells off to say 160 then on November 16th the option seller..." I turned on the subtitles, and he DOES say that. If a CALL expired in June, why does a Put for the same thing go out as far as November 16? Are they effective for longer time? I'm distracted by this, and my brain wants to come up with an answer to this rather than pay attention to what he's trying to teach.

[@Geovanna12]

The math in the index put option is incorrect. He speaks of a 20 point move but it’s actually a 200 point move.

[@LashondaHill-qn2em]

best video I've seen. v ery helpful.

[@JeffHansen57]

In your example of the Iron Butterfly that is non directional, the upside breakeven is only $1 above the original current price......so the profit range is almost all down from the original stock price of 1880. Sounds like this only works when the stock is down ( so it is a directional strategy)?

[@judgementcl]

Im still in the beginning of this video but, one thing I had gotten confused on was the actual purchase of 100 shares of asset related to the option. Do you need to have the buying power to purchase 100 shares yourself in your account?

[@rafaelosorio2251]

There's something I don't finish to understand. In the video (and books) says that you don't make gains on a Call option unless the expiration price be higher than the strike price. But, I see people open and closing positions, trading the price of the option that makes gain even below the strike price. An explanation would be welcome, thanks.

[@RedBullishTrading]

What happens if you do something like an iron butterfly or other strategy and you get exercised on?

[@BlinkyB23]

Absolutely incredible vid! Simple to understand. Thank you.

[@johnny1tap]

What if you have an in the money call but you don't have the cash balance to buy the shares when it expires?

[@Z3kyTw0]

I'm assuming this is not the same SMB Options Foundation course ?

[@larrylotter7190]

What happens if my option is in the money on termination date but I am not available to exercise it?

[@JGGarcia-kh8uq]

Great video Thanks for sharing! The question remains if everybody sells cause of what you explained in the video, who wants to buy options? thanks again!

[@JoseLopez-jc3jt]

Great course!…But This video course is missing to set each chapter or topic by time in the details section , so we can see All topics and click in the exact topic we want to see…

[@denniswade1283]

The math is wrong on the put option. 2950 -2750 = 200 not 20. Or is there something about the put option I am not getting?

[@saharnouhzademalekshah5922]

Thanks for the video! I’m wondering why SBM capital is teaching us how to option trade? Only because they are nice?!

[@moshjorgan1985]

Is strike price same as the limit price?

[@demyrix]

thank you. since optionvue got shutdown, what software did you switch to?

[@sethfreudberg4750]

Hi @hellowrold6330 we now use Option Net Explorer. Very good software actually.

[@demyrix]

[@Roderickbernardino4509]

Hi thanx for SMB video teachings how to trade. I have a question on tape reading or time and sales indicators. What does yellow , black, green and red boxes mean?

[@yoginacharya2150]

Trying to learn options. Thank you for the video, Seth and SMB🙏

[@sethfreudberg4750]

@Yogninacharya2150 keep watching and you'll learn more!

[@RoyThe4th]

If I have some call options in the money & don't have the cash on hand to purchase the total number of shares. Will my brokerage firm automatically sell them? Or am I expected to have the cash on hand to fulfill the obligation purchase prior to selling for profit

[@knm185]

Are there specific option Greek levels that you have to be aware of when buying deep-in-the-money call options for it to be a safe strategy?
