I've watched a few videos on this topic and afterwards still felt somewhat confused. After watching this video I can honestly say that has changed. Thank you so much, I'm definitely saving this as a study guide! 🤓📖🥳
Great Video as always - This is the Video to "PIN"/bookmark to quickly refer to when you need to understand any Greek. Thanks for creating a cheatsheet version of a video explaining Greeks.
I love your videos. Whenever I have options questions I come here first to see if you have already done a video on that topic. With that said, if you take suggestions, I would love to see a video explainers on the topic of a gamma squeeze.
Another fabulous video, thanks Chris!! I've generally used Delta as a way to gauge probabilities, selling spreads with a Delta of +/- 0.25. But with the recent two week bull run in stocks, the Deltas in my credit spreads have substantially increased causing significant losses.

Can you test selling an iron condor daily. SPX. Let it expire. 1/3 with of the strikes. I would appreciate this . We all would. Greetings from Guatemala.
I saw your video and thought id ask. I had a put option contract with a $30 theta. I held it overnight, and the next day the stock dropped 20 points. Sonehow i was still negative on the contract. My broker is saying it has something to do with the theta and gamma, but from your video it doesn't seem at all likely. Do you have a possible explanation or was i just robbed ?
Can they be used to filter and find good options to trade? Anyone knows any tools or guide lines on how to use Options Greeks for entering a trade either long or short? Kind of what values to look for in each or all of them to enter or exit a trade?

You're welcome and I'm happy this is a topic you've been wanting! Let me know what you think after watching if you have any feedback. I'd appreciate it :D
Ok, after I buy a call and it goes down a certain amount, it does not go back up the same. It ends up needing to go further to get back to the price in started falling from.
Mostly due to time decay. If the stock drops and recovers to the entry price over 10 days, your option will have lost value and will be in the red from the passing of 10 days. If the stock drops and recovers on the same day, your option shouldn't change much in value.
The main thing delta represents is the option's price change vs. a stock price change. The probability of the option expiring ITM is the secondary usage of delta.
The "Delta" of the stock can be derived from N(d1) from the Black Scholes model, which is the probability of a call expiring in the money. You can also use N(d2) to figure out how much you'd have to borrow to make a replicating portfolio. From my understanding, N(-d1) is the likelihood a put expires ITM which is 1-N(d1). But it's cool because these are values that are modeled from a normal distribution curve and is heavily tied to physics.
Speaking too fast for my brain to calculate wtf is being said lol.. I've just barely got the understanding of how calls/puts fully work and the premium etc... now this ha. Its never ending. Edit: I'm not hating on your video. I have a learning disability since I was a kid. So it makes things a pain in the ass to learn. pisses me off lol
Hey I hear you and I apologize for the pace. Have you tried slowing down the playback on TH-cam? I can create a pdf of this video too and post the link in the description in a couple days.
They are opposites if this doesn’t make sense then you should search for videos that just talk about calls or puts. Though if you having trouble understanding this video because it talks about both and it’s just the reverse, I wouldn’t think a video talking just about calls or puts would make a huge difference. I’m not saying this to be mean or offend you, I am just being forward and blunt. Good luck and hope you’re able to find a video that helps you more!

Chris great to see you back! Do you offer a discord?
I am new at this and I’m trying to figure out how to get the Delta and where is this data for Delta??

You missed one of the Greek which is RHO
I just found your channel. You have the same last name and sound a lot like Mike Butler at Tasty. Are you related? You could be brothers. Hmmm.
Yes he is my older brother!
I’m learning…
Oh man I’ve been waiting on this one…I love your videos and send them to anyone who’s trying to learn about options 😊Thank you
Thank you for sharing! I'm glad this one was a timely topic! Let me know what you think after watching please. I'd greatly appreciate your feedback.
I thought delta meant the percentage that the strike will end in the money? That’s what everyone else is saying

No no it doesnt make sense dont talk about calls and puts at the same time teach me.about calls then explain puts not at same time just confusing

First!
So fast!
@@projectfinance lol my TH-cam routine is how I unwind after work. Hope you're having a good day.
@@projectfinance I also saw TastyTrade will have an API soon. It would be great to see a video of how to use it.
Completely lost lol
Just thinking the same like why are telling me about calls and puts at the same time split I up lol
Thanks for that very clear and informative video. Love your work.
Thanks for watching!
