    Today we get a sneak peek inside the mind of a profitable options trader. Steve began his career in electrical engineering as a defense contractor. This step in his career unveiled that employee life was not for him. Determined to discover a new career, he found himself with a passion for trading. Steve embarked on his full-time, successful trading career in 2007. In today's episode, he highlights the differentiation between traders with awareness of what they do know versus those unaware of what they don't know. He also dives into the different markets he has endured and the struggles he encountered.

    He’s making options more complex than it is. The reason ppl get in options is bc a half percent move in a stock like aapl can profit you 30%. It’s all timing and chart reading. Forget the other noise

      @@robertz1962 at the end of the day, we're just trying to make money. Unless this guy is actually using options to hedge his stock positions (which is what options was meant to be in the first place), there's really no justification to over complicate it. As the guy said, it all comes down to your ability to choose a market direction.

    Hey Alex this episode was a really enjoyable one for me because I actually understood all the options lingo. I have been crazy studying options and working on developing profitable strategies for that last two years. I've finally made some major breakthroughs and am getting regular returns that would seem unbelievable to someone who is looking in from the outside. I really enjoy all your shows and look forward to seeing them come out. I wish I had a network like y'all seem to have but hopefully one day that will start happening for me. Thanks again buddy.

  • @kemawellington3238
    @kemawellington3238 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Hey Alex. A couple of reasons why someone would trade Options over Stocks is that with Options you can profit from either direction (delta, gamma), Time Decay (Theta - Selling premium) or Volatility (IV, Vega ) . So it's more versatile and has returns that rival pennystocks 😊

  • @sspencer3356

      @@neilmac4730 Update: i will be honest, currently I’m now on the red due to several bad trades and “learning” with options trading. I’ve basically managed to revert 3 months of gains. Lesson: never ever feel like you’ve got it and become too overconfident. Best is still to try and trade companies with good fundamentals, yet on a bull market. This current market is hell.

    The flaw with these "smart" options traders is they try to have an options strategy at every point in time that they are presented with. That's just gambling imo.
    Trading is about waiting for the "setup" that you have tested countless times to be profitable. Not just theoretical. Because "IN THEORY," there is a profitable options strategy for everything. But in practicality, that's not what usually happens.

    Every crash /collapse/inflation or a recession offers an equal market opportunity if you are well prepared and knowledgeable. I've seen people accumulate up to $800,000 during crises and even pull it off with ease in a bad economy. Without a doubt, the bubble or crash has made someone extremely wealthy.

  • @relentlessventures4951

    The comments on options selling are misguided. It’s a yield enhancement tactic for value based long term investments. That’s it. You’ll only get “run over” if the underlying is an overvalued POS business. Options buying is a completely different strategy. A good options selling strategy is directionally indifferent bud.
