[@rachelj.3998]

thank you so much! Actually i am one of your students, and i found it very very helpful in terms of understanding, both your lectures and videos are very interesting, nice job!

[@DeebzFromThe90s]

Absolute legend. You don't tell us what to trade but you go into depth such that I want to investigate edges. Folks who have you as a mentor are truly lucky!

[@sayra5496]

Finally, I can say I understand Implied Volatility. Seriously, thank you so much!

Please don't stop putting out these videos. They are severely under-priced.

You videos are really good. I am leaning how to trade VXX options in my own account and came across your channel. Please keep up the good work and subscribers will bloom explosively in the future.

[@kirill1569]

Concise, and to the point. Thank you!

[@Maggarooni]

This is a great explanation! I hope there was a video discussing the circular logic of VIX/VX futures.

It was the ponzy videos that blew you up! Good call!

[@dpavlovsky]

I'm not a finance person, but I'm a bit confused. The brokerages calculate the prices of those options using those same formulas (binomial tree BBS, finite difference, or whatever), so they must already have the sigma value, right? And then working backwards, you're just distilling the volatility that they've already figured into the price?

[@samsabrosa6841]

Great explanation!

[@PBoyle]

Thanks!

[@davea136]

Thank you for he explanation. For volatility to be based on the sstandard deviation of the stock price that means the price, over time, is a normal distribution. Does that assumption hold up well? I guess I could figure that out for myelf. Sorry for the dumb question, but if you know I'd be interested in your answer. Thank you very much Mr. Boyle, I very much enjoy your channel.

[@Thatiswhatsup]

enjoying these videos🔥🔥🔥

[@lucaambrogioni]

Is the Madoff documentary already out? I wasn't able to find it

[@rossfriedman6570]

Is it called implied volatility because the volatility is implied by the price people are willing to sell options at?

[@tomashernandez8498]

Great Content!

[@delacruzneili]

i just wonder, why 'implied' when 'speculation' might be the right term? after all in Options trading, we are all just speculating.. anyway, you couldn't have been more clear with this..

[@lollmao249]

Hello, Can you please explain something i don't understand. Since the black&scholes forma is made to give the price of an option and you say that it is a function of the implied volatility then, how come that we get the Price since the implied volatility is unknown ?

[@apextamang2009]

market

[@tommywind8544]

You teach well! Thanks

[@PBoyle]

Thanks Tommy

[@alejandrorolon414]

That would be for traded options, what about OTC options that dont have a price in the market?

[@vuufke4327]

[@cosminu.4519]

How is that done ? Iv is calculated every day?
