Hi Brian! Seems to me that I would rather go with what you said 3 yrs ago, I don't trade, I buy low and sell high. Not gonna forget that. I will stick too that option, buy low and sell high. All other options seems more like gambling and I'm not good at gambling. I hope your weekend was a pleasant one! ........Again, thank you for all you do fur us. 😊
I don’t know how to thank you for making such clear and understandable video, I have watched numerous videos and I couldn’t understand how I can trade options, I lost lots of money in just stock trading, it is about 2 months that I have constantly profit, I really appreciate your amazing job. I have watch some other of your videos , they really showcase your knowledge, strong experience and your analytical minds. Thanks millions.
My best advice to all beginners. Take advantage of paper trading which is fake money but works with real market action. Win or loose make your mistakes which you will before you put real money down. Once you understand how you fit into the market and understand your decisions than you’ll have better success there.
I’m so glad I didn’t really make any big mistakes when I started my investment journey last year. So far I’ve just been sticking small amounts of money into companies I’m sure will continue to exist for the next five years and if the stocks do well, I hold on. If not, I reinvest the bad ones into the good ones so I can get higher gains. I gained about $9.5k from putting in $4k into NVIDIA earlier this year so that was pretty nice.
In my taxable account I went into dividend investing route. In my Roth I did the buy and hold route with an S&P 500 etf and total market etf along with some Berkshire B stock and SCHD.
"BRAVO"... I just came across your video(s).... I've struck GOLD... I've been studying this video now for (3) straight days.... AWESOME! ...... Can't wait for the NEXT STEPS!
I'm 62 just getting started in the market. I wish you had option classes and general stock investment classes. Too many "experts" are con men, you're legit.. Thank you for the videos and making it easy to understand..
I watch your videos for other financial advice/learning and was super excited that you popped up when I decided to learn about options trading. Thank you so much for the effort you put into these videos! Can’t wait to learn more from you!
Thank you for being so honest . I have always dreamed of finance and stocks . But had to sacrifice most of my life for my son , and other issues. Now I am 62 and finally learning as much as I can about trading . I have been very savvy and love learning all this . Thank you so much fir being honest. I see and watch a lot of videos and podcasts . Wanting to learn. But most are crooks or just fake . Thank you for being real and giving normal people like me some hope 🙏
Selling cash secured puts to enter a stock and selling covered calls when you want to exit a stock is the way. Don’t be the buyer of call or put options unless they’re hedges.
Thank you for the educational content, Brian! I know these take alot of time and energy to make and may not receive the views that your other videos get. But you are making a much bigger impact per viewer and providing a great service for our community.
Watched few videos to understand ‘Options’ none of them made any sense to me but this one is great. How simply you have explained everything. Thank you.
I won the stock competition in my school district but that was years ago. and of course options are not stocks. But I'm really enjoying your content. I'm more than happy to support your channel and receive real lessons in return. Not those bs "buy my timeshare" things that bombard anyone interested in investing lol Very clear and easy to understand. Thank you CVT
I get your point but you can’t put “I watched a 50 minute video by a sexy looking Asian man” on your resume. School is more than a degree on your resume, if you didnt make use of the connections and potential school gave you that 60k a year waste is on you.
@@joeb8725That’s exactly what i did. I invested my college tuition and learned a trade skill. Now, i work for myself not because i have to but because i want to. The financial security i have now is unprecedented!
The best video on options trading. One small comment it confused me that you explained how to write a covered call at the end of the topic instead of at the beginning because you used terms selling options and selling stocks. How to write covered calls is the most important thing in understanding about covered calls. This is a great video, you saved me tons of time, I have books but this video is way better. You are an excellent teacher.
Brian, i’ve been a subscriber to your channel for almost 2 years. Your gifts of wisdom are truly appreciated. Thank you for giving factual and helpful information. I look forward to all your videos, you are a true youtube gem! Keep up the great work!
Just want to say, Brian, you have opened my eyes to so many things I had no knowledge of. There are many of us who aren't taught the importance of things like this and other things involving taxes and adulting in general by our families and friends. I have genuinely enjoyed learning from your videos, you are straight to the point and you explain things extremely well. I leave every video learning something new that I can apply to my life to sculpt the environment and lifestyle I want... Thanks Brian! We appreciate you so much
Thanks for simplifying the options trading. I have been trading stocks for few years and never had time learn about options. This is an excellent tutorial.
the comments are true ...I to was more confused after watching others options beginner videos, this is best explanation video so far. I actually placed 2 small cash secured puts after watching this video ....fingers crossed!!!
I kid you not, this is the first time I have completely understood and then placed call options and actually made $$ from it. Thank you for the best breakdown of call options on the internet!!
I have the 901st comment. Your teaching is very easy to understand, that's so important when trying to explain options. You're doing an amazing job, keep up the great work kid. You definitely have my subscription locked in.
One of the best break downs of options I have seen and heard. I current have 2 contracts of Tesla I bought at SP $2.45 for $20.65 that has 7/26 expiration. Hope Tesla continues to 🚀🚀🚀💰💰💰
12:38 wow.. I understand more about this after 12 minutes of your video compared to the countless minutes or hours of other videos I’ve watched. You answered literally every single question I had
I Hit 110k today. Thank you for all the knowledge and nuggets you had thrown my way over the last months. Started last month 2024. Financial education is indeed required for more than 70% of the society in the country as very few are literate on the subject. thanks to Charlotte Grace Miller for helping me achieve this
Most people are retiring this year and has nothing to show for. But I assure you it's never late to get your financial life together again.. All thanks to Charlotte Grace Miller for I and my family
Woah for real? I'm so excited. Charlotte Miller strategy has normalised winning trades for me also. and it's a huge milestone for me looking back to how it all started
Good stuff Brian. I know that options can be very intimidating for a beginner investor but once you figure it out, it's invaluable info. I use covered calls and cash secured puts all the time to make extra money. After a while, it really adds up.
@@obm_jay im in the same boat as you but if i had to guess you'll lose money your first trades and then when you become more knowledgable you will eventually make some.
I don’t usually like or comment on videos I watch but I’ve been liking each of your videos as I watch them. Super informative. I’m a total beginner and was looking for a platform to learn and I’m learning so much from yours.
I’ve always been an advocate of trading too because it has paid off handsomely since I decided to dabble in it. I've seen my net worth grow exponentially the past 2 years.
This video really helped me and I have ADHD. It was able to keep me focused and actually understand. I’ve been trying to truly understand options for 5 years and this video really helped. Deserves a like a follow!
I cannot thank you enough for brilliantly explain this content! You have an uncanny ability to succinctly present and explain concepts. I subscribed and liked your video as everyone should!! Again, thank you!!
Extremely well don with this video! Most simple and informative video about options trading i've found on TH-cam so thank you for putting your time and efforts in explaining this so well.
Best content I’ve come across on Options investing for beginners. In the first example on Call options where you make net a profit of $3.20 per share(2:53min). Does this mean that the total gain on this trade alone is $320 (3.20x100)?
I want to thank you very much for helping me understand the call options very clearly. I have subscribed to your channel and looking forward to watching all your videos. God bless you and again thank you 😊
Brian, Thank you and very well done. Me: pause video, write down notes, play video, pause and repeat, but well worth it. I feel like I'm really going to understand "options" much better and be able to capitalize with a much smarter approach. Thank you, good luck on your application to DOGE and looking forward to more great content videos.
Congrats on your growth, I started trades in January on a 10 k account which has grown to 48 k, the broker I use capitalizes on Ai and bots for trading which I have been taking advantage of. Your channel is also an inspiration
Brian is this pretty much how it works with commodity trading too? I've been trying to figure out calls and puts for quite a while now but you have absolutely explained it the best. Thank you!
Thank you for this series. I needed this. Clearly there are many on TH-cam that either over complicate their lectures on Options, or do not understand it themselves. Best series on Option Trading IMO! I will binge watch these videos. Thanks again.
Thank you for explaining this so clearly and thoroughly. I have watched numerous videos on intros to calls, and none have made it as understandable as you.
By far the best video on options I've seen! Thank you! I still don't understand a contract expiring, or, if there is no price change does that mean you would have to buy 100 shares of YELP @ $36.00 (which would equal $360.00) since you have a contract controlling the 100 shares. A lot to understand!
This was awesome! Thanks for the clear & concise REAL-WORLD examples! I'll be taking my Series 7 exam in 54 days and this video really helped me better understand options trading!
Just made it through the whole way and wanted to say thank you again. I will definitely have to re reference this video when i can take notes. Much love!!!
