[@dominiccrawfordsankofacrys4573]

OMG Thank you bro ive been trying my absolute best to fathom & comprehend the physics & dynamics involved with trading options, obviously this is not public knowledge thats easy to acces & understand yet thats where alot of $$ can be made. I thank you, you actually explain the pros & cons fairly well with Options for this is no child's play you can either get wealthy or go broke doing this & I need to understand all posibilities & outcomes before I place my money on the line. Much appreciated Mr.Evdakov 👍👍

Sasha, on buying a call how much does one lose under vs what one loses on selling a put, thanks. Great video, just doesn't discusses losses

[@tradersflyofficial]

It depends on a lot of factors. For example how you manage the position, what strike prices you go with, and more

[@zzhughesd]

Sasha Evdakov: Tradersfly Yes thanks. Seen you can Sell A Put and buy some downside insurance with a Buy Put too. Just getting into this

[@inglewoodco.226]

Sasha - if you sell a put and it goes WAY below your strike price, then comes back up (but still sits below), it is negative decay. Say the buyer isn't exercising early and there's a week left where it's hovering +/- $2. Say on expiry day, it is +$0.50 above your strike price, is the decay still lower than your premium paid whereby you can close at profit, or will you be at a loss?

Amazing video...worth its weight in gold.

[@kishoresrimat]

Very useful!!!

[@tradersflyofficial]

Thank you so much. I'm glad that you find that video helpful.

[@InvestingEducation]

Good share

[@tradersflyofficial]

Thank you so much.

[@AntonioGomez-gg7dd]

Great video, very well explained. Appreciate you putting it together. What happens if I sell a put, collect the premium, the stock keeps going up, and I then buy the put back before expiration? Do I get to keep the entire premium AND the gains from the stock having moved up? Thanks!

[@tamaraviso777]

I’m new to stock, can anyone tell me if you don’t have any shares, how can you sell put/ call? Do you have to have shares to buy/sell call put? Thank you so much

[@tradersflyofficial]

You do not have to have stock in order to buy puts or calls or any kinds of options

[@RafaelSandiego08]

Thank you for your videos about trading. My question is, how do I calculate the megnitude of the drop or raise of a stoc

[@anildangol]

Which software are you using for simulated trading?

[@tradersflyofficial]

Thinkorswim

[@chea18z]

can you day trade calls and puts?

[@tradersflyofficial]

You can. But you what do it quite a bit differently and make some changes then trading standard options

[@hamzaahmad951]

hi i thought you advice us to take a passive income life style

[@tradersflyofficial]

Once you have the income then you can go ahead and invest. I have two KZbin channels....

[@frankfromupstateny3796]

Doesn't make sense to Buy.....after reading/listening to this based on statistical probability.

[@tradersflyofficial]

Thanks for watching... :)

[@ahmadhusaini8420]

Scalping with a solid tight stop loss will benefit from selling puts?

[@tradersflyofficial]

Sure you can have a stop loss on puts

[@ahmadhusaini8420]

@@tradersflyofficial i mean why i do rarely find anyone using selling puts for options trading?

[@tradersflyofficial]

@@ahmadhusaini8420 probably you watch the beginners or many free videos on KZbin... Could that be the case?

[@ahmadhusaini8420]

@@tradersflyofficial selling puts vertical is better for longer term of trading right? Since it covers your back. What about 1-3hour of intraday, would it be a good idea to sell puts of aapl for an instance

[@tradersflyofficial]

It requires less capital but slower theta. Not that onr is better. Just trade offs.

[@tamaraviso777]

Also for selling call/buying put: that you think stock will go down, but why at the option trading there are prices higher than strike price? For example: Macy stock now at $5.02, if I think it will go down I’ll buy put, then in the put there are 11$-1$. What does it mean? Same thing with the other options. Thank you

[@tradersflyofficial]

There are different strikes in a different strikes you have different levels of control. I would definitely recommend you look at the game start at page on our website at tradersfly.com

[@danielcsong9087]

Why do you lose money if the stock stays still for calls, and how come u make money when it stays still for puts

[@tradersflyofficial]

If you are a buyer I'll call or put you still lose money from the theta decay. You don't make money from a put if the stock stands still if you are a buyer of a put. Anytime you are a purchaser of options they decay and you lose money from that decay

[@frankfromupstateny3796]

So Sasha....why would anyone with any brain...no offense..."Buy a Call/Go Long, THIS WAY. .when the odds drastically favors... Selling a Put sir?. Is it just shear naivety?
