Hi... Please where can I invest and make good profits without being scared of loosing my money ....I'm actually looking for a good trader that can help me manage my trade and make good profits for me at the end of the day
People fail to understand that the wise stay financially stable by spending less and investing more while the unwise remain poor by spending more and yet not investing like the wise ones do..
The best investment to do now is investing in Crypto Currency. There's nothing better than investing this remaining year to get good income growth and Forex Can help you get that. I have really seen the difference since I swapped.
I thought of investing in bitcoin around June 2018 but was discouraged with the rise and fall of bitcoin. I don’t know if it’s still safe and idea to invest now and what platform is recommended?
I have been investing with mrs Rebecca trading services. I came across some nice comments about her here on yutube and I gave it a try and honestly I don’t regret the move .
Everything you are doing is a 1:1 ratio.. What if you bought 2 call options and shorted 1. Would the profit be double? Like for the first example, the profit was 15 but if you bought 2 call options, wouldn’t that be double”30” So when you hit your price point, let’s say 80% then sell one off and let the other ride to see what happens. Would that work?
@@scottreesetradinginvesting7936 Actually, the strategy I spoke on is what is used by hedge funds and experienced traders. You guys only do 1:1 ration but the pros do more than one and take profits on half and let the rest run 🙌🏾
Pro tip: you definitely SHOULD worry about assignment if the extrinsic value remaining is < a dividend amount. In that case, expect the probability of assignment to be 100%. 👍
Thank you very much Mr joans Kaufmannfor successful withdrawal... I never believe we still have good and trust worthy account manager on Binary Options and Forex trade, I actually enjoy the fact that this days all I do is take care of my kid and wait for more money
to make such success as an investor is through the assistance of an investment coach or a portfolio manager, I had to reach out to an investment coach Name joans Kaufmann, who guided me grow my account to $490,700 from February till now. take advantage of this great opportunity
It’s worth bearing in mind that your choice of broker can restrict the tools available to you. Free day trading software may seem like a no brainier to start with, but if it comes with the sacrifice of technical tools that could enhance trade decisions then it may cost you in the long run. Remember the best day trading software for Forex may not cut the mustard when you use it for stocks, so do your research and consider all the factors outlined above. Most importantly, you wouldn’t buy a car without test driving it first, and your day trading software shouldn’t be any different, Don't worry Mr Joans Kaufmann can help you too
You should start off with a professional who would be helping you make good trades and profits while showing you the steps. If I had not started trading options this year, I would have been homeless by now
Rachael Daniels How does this whole options trading thing work, I’m interested in it and I’m willing and ready to invest heavily in it but I’m gonna need an assistance from a trusted and productive professional
Cherry Hills That’s not all true, you don’t really need someone to tell you how to invest in options wisely. But you can always make research and find a professional to trade for you
Cherry Hills I will recommend Gideon Trading Services for you, their trading service is working for me at the moment and I’m making good profits from options trading

@@maryhillocks2223 It's really an awesome experience whenever you trade with profit.. all traders are risk inclined but only takes Experience and required skills to subdue this risk and make profit
Dude, you're awesome. Understanding all of this is one thing, being able to explain it is another, having the WILLINGNESS to explain it is yet another. Thanks for making these excellent videos!
Agreed. Willingness to explain this speaks a lot about how much he and other people like him are willing to put such valuable info in public and create/increase communities. Great work.
Great video. I need to use short call spread instead of just shorting calls. Shorting calls results in unpredictable margin requirements. I'm holding short $GME calls, margin requirements volatility is crazy, I have barely survived the last bull run-:)
I would agree! Shorting calls is super risky ESPECIALLY on a stock like GME that has these rips higher. And when the meme stonks rip higher the IV / option premiums explode, so you’re losing on the directional move and IV expansion. A short call spread will help minimize both sources of losses. The downside is the call spreads will be cheap on a stock like GME, giving you less reward for your risk.
I'm new to options. But I don't understand why the multiplier isn't just applied to all given values that it would apply to, right out of the gate. Why do we say "this costs $10" when we all know you really mean $1000? Why isn't the full price of the option just displayed in the chain with the multiplier already factored in? Maybe this is something i'll understand further down the road. But from where I'm standing it seems like a lot of this stuff could be simplified greatly by just standardizing terminology across the market and presenting prices at their true value, all variables factored in. I'm probably missing something since I'm not that experienced yet, but getting into the market, the biggest hurdle was just understanding what is lingo/slang and what is textbook terminology. More times than I can count while watching I yelled at the screen "do you mean THAT number or that number times 100?!" Frustrating to keep up at first. But I do really like your videos they are very informative.
This is an excellent presentation but unless you are a genius, it is not intuitive. I was able to understand it by creating excel spreadsheets of each of these vertical spreads and then watching how the values of each option changes with various stock prices. For example, I created a spread sheet where I could see the how the values of the long put and the short put change with a given stock price and then add them together. Don't forget to subtract the long put option price. You can then plug in different numbers and see how the profits/losses change. When I did this, I understood it.
So if you own say Tesla stock vertical spread and short put leg is ITM and it gets for whatever reason exercised.. You get to by now 100 Tesla stocks worth 70k??
Yes his work resume is quite impressive. He looks pretty young. I can appreciate his willingness as well as bravery in communicating these facts. Thank you

Invaluable work, Chris. Excellent explanation! Though the duration of the video might seem intimidating at first, time swifts smoothly and you do not even notice more than an hour went away. What happens if having entered a credit spread I am assigned the short leg? Does the long leg act as a hedge for my account to prevent a break down?
@Robin Fred There is no magic in trading. The main secret of trading is to have a very strong and reliable signal, but that's not for novices, that's why I work with Larry Kent Nick. His trading strategies are superb
True! I usually opt for shorting in many of my videos because to a beginner I think “selling” might suggest to them i am closing an option I own. But shorting is also confusing because it’s a more advanced word.
When we are told to do our own due diligence, what information should I look for? What are reputable news source and what should I be paying attention to? How do I research a stock, analyze it and see if it’s worth trading options on it? How do you do it? Thanks great video.
thanks for the very helpful video. i understand risk of assignment is pretty scary and likely. therefore to mitigate the risk, the trader should monitor the price movement and set rules of when to take profit and when to accept lost. Perhaps you could do a video on your rules for profit taking/loss making and how you monitor trades as time goes by, thereby avoiding the risk of assignment. Thanks again :)
So the only thing I am stumped on, well the main thing is probability, the chance of profit does not take into account the stocks historical charting? Ie. a stock which is in a up trend
Fidelity had a live webinar on this exact topic earlier today, which I attended, their presentation was boring and their slide graphics were straight out of Microsoft word. I asked a question during the session about considering the advantages of closing early, which they refused to answer because they thought it was too close to "strategy." I learned SO much more useful information from yours by comparison, thank you for once again blowing my brokerage out of the water.
This is one of the best option strategies in trading, but most experts advise trading a small portion of your account because it carries risks, especially for beginners.
Many Thanks Chris, An excellent presentation. Much to learn and worth watching a second time to capture even more of it. I have liked it and I have subscribed as I look forward to more of your great instructions.
Love your videos man, you make it way easier for morons like me 😂. I’ve learned more off your videos than I did from a complete stocks and options course that was offered to me from a trading group I used to be with. It was informative but not mind blowing like your videos. Thanks brother I really appreciate it. I will definitely use your link once I open up an account with tasty 👅
You know what??? The precondition to formulate this spread play style is YOU GOT TO HAVE HIGHER STRIKE SECURITY FIRST. Not directly to jump in to short right away without cover. The same feeling about the source of this wordy material MUST BE from Tasty Work who is always prone to lack of clarifying explanation in gaps for details.
I don’t understand. When you enter a spread you short an option and buy an option simultaneously. I am not advising to short an option first and then buy the protection later
You are the best. I just started yesterday watching 'Options Trading for Beginners (The ULTIMATE In-Depth Guide)'. After finishing that video, I will watch this video. You have so many videos in your channel. Is there any sequence to follow for beginners? Please guide us. Appreciate your help and God bless you for helping.
Thank you so much, watching your video saves me so much time to go through an entire book. Have been taking notes and rewatching some parts to deepen my understanding. Words can't express my gratitude, I can now paper trade strategies, personally I prefer your debit spreads, more aggressive for strong trending days; but defensive credit spread is good for "not so sure" days. Eye opening. Feeling much more confident after each video. Thank you wish I know your name, God bless you with more abundance, happiness health and love.
you still have to be good at guessing UP, DOWN, or SIDEWAYS. there is simply no way to escape this fundamental fact. if anyone was that good at guessing up, down or sideways they would easily be a trillionaire trading regular stock shares. options only make you imagine you have some 'advantage'. in reality options put you at an extreme disadvantage. regular stock shares do not EXPIRE
That's true. That's why buying calls is cheaper than buying shares of stock -- you have a higher probability of losing your entire investment. Shares of stock are like calls with a strike price of zero and no expiration date.
Absolutely must watch Vertical Spreads content - very well explained for both IV and Time to Expiration influence. This is the best video for Verticals so far.
Hey good video, but you contradict yourself, on strategy # 2 you saying if u short out of the money spread. you have high prpbility of making money but comes with more risk. if you have high probality there should not be less reward. it could not happend.
Generally: More risk than reward = More than 50% probability of making money if held to expiration. Less risk than reward = Less than 50% probability of making money if held to expiration.
Good presentation but the best way to grasp this is to do it. Chris stated he studied for 300 hours until he traded a single option but I disagree. Just play with a small amount of money and you can still grasp it much easier. I am learning trading Zynga options which will cost in the teens to play with. There are nuances with bid-ask, time to get the option purchased etc. that must be experienced rather than explained.
You're right, experience is the best way to learn. I mentioned I spent hundreds of hours reading before trading, but that's not what I'm recommending as required before trading. As long as you carefully trade and understand the risk of your positions, you can begin trading and learning with experience in a safe manner.
Appreciate the video, thanks. Are you looking for stock to buy in 2023? GOGY has remarkable record of growth and innovation in the fast-growing energy drink segment. GOGY is primed for long-term success.
This must have been a beast to produce, but the information is fantastic and so is the presentation. Thank you for all your content, it's been extremely helpful as I've been getting started in options.
I have learned so much from Chris. I really connect with how he breaks things down and lays it out for us. If you stumbled on this channel while learning options, consider yourself extremely lucky.
Most time having knowledge or insight about a particular activity can as well be a pleasing exercise. I can boldly say that forex and crypto trading is one of the profitable money exchange service that elevates investors and their financial status.
I have been watching this video for 2 days, taking note and slowly analyzing information that you have explained here. Thank you so much for making such a great quality video. It inspires me significantly to learn more about options every day.
It's impressive how well you deliver such complex content and make it way more digestible/understandable than anyone I've seen so far. Thank you very much!
I think either way it’s confusing :/ If I say sell then the question is how can you sell something you don’t own? If I say short then the question is what is shorting and then how can you sell something you don’t own?
Great information! One question I always have is how to compare wider spreads and less contracts vs narrower spreads and more contracts. For example, if I want my max loss to be less than $1000, then how do I decide between two $5 wide spread vs one $10 wide spread? I know options are all about trade-off but I don't have a clear view now about the trade-off between these two choices.
The bearish call is the worse strategy. As of today ( 7/7/2021) using the same setup, if NTFX goes up by 2.5 % since day one in are already at a loss. Now, if the stock sinks 20%, . that was what you predict, you get 217. It is a joke., look for a better strategy. The way it's set up, you have no idea about the stock you are buying, so just don't trade.
Great video! Wondering, if you’re best off selling any spreads with a deep itm option due to early assignment risk, who actually buys the options at that point? If every trader want to get rid of options before expiration to avoid dealing with assignment, won’t the prices go down due to low demand? Who buys contracts just before expiration?
Next stock to rise tomorrow is $JE Insider buying, institutional buying, and they own part of EcoBee And for last 3 months, we short squeezed 3 times to $20, it will happen again this week. 200-300% gains coming
After you understand the win loss probabilities of the particular spread in mind, and the implications it has on profitability over many trades, then go and learn about position sizing and capital efficiency and return on capital. Then you will be able to answer that question yourself. Good luck on your researching and learning.
This is such an useful video, for anyone starting on this topic. The content was crisp and clear. Thank you so much clarifying the risks about Credit and Debit spread. Early assignment was always something as a beginner that bothered me and this has thrown a lot of light on it

Why is the long position on the vertical call below the market price and ITM?
This is such a gold video. This is pretty much the equivalent of Understanding Options distilled into a great visual video. Nice work!
Much appreciated!
You know what???
The precondition to formulate this spread play style is YOU GOT TO HAVE HIGHER STRIKE SECURITY FIRST. Not directly to jump in to short right away without cover.
The same feeling about the source of this wordy material MUST BE from Tasty Work who is always prone to lack of clarifying explanation in gaps for details.
I don’t understand. When you enter a spread you short an option and buy an option simultaneously. I am not advising to short an option first and then buy the protection later
You are the best. I just started yesterday watching 'Options Trading for Beginners (The ULTIMATE In-Depth Guide)'. After finishing that video, I will watch this video. You have so many videos in your channel. Is there any sequence to follow for beginners? Please guide us. Appreciate your help and God bless you for helping.
Great info. thanks. ph
Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much, watching your video saves me so much time to go through an entire book. Have been taking notes and rewatching some parts to deepen my understanding. Words can't express my gratitude, I can now paper trade strategies, personally I prefer your debit spreads, more aggressive for strong trending days; but defensive credit spread is good for "not so sure" days. Eye opening. Feeling much more confident after each video. Thank you wish I know your name, God bless you with more abundance, happiness health and love.
you still have to be good at guessing UP, DOWN, or SIDEWAYS. there is simply no way to escape this fundamental fact. if anyone was that good at guessing up, down or sideways they would easily be a trillionaire trading regular stock shares. options only make you imagine you have some 'advantage'. in reality options put you at an extreme disadvantage. regular stock shares do not EXPIRE
That's true. That's why buying calls is cheaper than buying shares of stock -- you have a higher probability of losing your entire investment. Shares of stock are like calls with a strike price of zero and no expiration date.
Absolutely must watch Vertical Spreads content - very well explained for both IV and Time to Expiration influence. This is the best video for Verticals so far.
R u on Instagram? If not, there is someone posing as you offering paid mentoring
I can't understand why you are using the term "short". You are buying a call and selling another.
Short means that the option trade irrespective on what type you get essentially bets the stock would go down or stay below a designated strike price
As always, a great video!
Hey good video, but you contradict yourself, on strategy # 2 you saying if u short out of the money spread. you have high prpbility of making money but comes with more risk. if you have high probality there should not be less reward. it could not happend.
Generally:
More risk than reward = More than 50% probability of making money if held to expiration.
Less risk than reward = Less than 50% probability of making money if held to expiration.
hope can see you doing live and real trade in option ...more understanding ...thks
Good presentation but the best way to grasp this is to do it. Chris stated he studied for 300 hours until he traded a single option but I disagree. Just play with a small amount of money and you can still grasp it much easier. I am learning trading Zynga options which will cost in the teens to play with. There are nuances with bid-ask, time to get the option purchased etc. that must be experienced rather than explained.
You're right, experience is the best way to learn. I mentioned I spent hundreds of hours reading before trading, but that's not what I'm recommending as required before trading. As long as you carefully trade and understand the risk of your positions, you can begin trading and learning with experience in a safe manner.
Thank you for the excellent video. Lot's of information to consume.
Bro you got some very good and detailed videos 🤝🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Thank you!
@@projectfinance thanks bro 👍🏾big help ..

Great channel and superb information.
Appreciate the video, thanks. Are you looking for stock to buy in 2023? GOGY has remarkable record of growth and innovation in the fast-growing energy drink segment. GOGY is primed for long-term success.
Thank you sir as I appreciate you sharing your knowledge. I’m a student now.
if you want God to forgive you dont commet here just go to the church and pray.
This must have been a beast to produce, but the information is fantastic and so is the presentation. Thank you for all your content, it's been extremely helpful as I've been getting started in options.
Due to the economic crisis one needs to have different streams of income📈📈
I have learned so much from Chris. I really connect with how he breaks things down and lays it out for us. If you stumbled on this channel while learning options, consider yourself extremely lucky.
Most time having knowledge or insight about a particular activity can as well be a pleasing exercise. I can boldly say that forex and crypto trading is one of the profitable money exchange service that elevates investors and their financial status.
I like you!...just business no chit chats that west time.
I have been watching this video for 2 days, taking note and slowly analyzing information that you have explained here. Thank you so much for making such a great quality video. It inspires me significantly to learn more about options every day.

It's impressive how well you deliver such complex content and make it way more digestible/understandable than anyone I've seen so far. Thank you very much!
Why can’t you stop saying short instead of sell ……you are only confusing newbies!
I think either way it’s confusing :/
If I say sell then the question is how can you sell something you don’t own?
If I say short then the question is what is shorting and then how can you sell something you don’t own?
Great information! One question I always have is how to compare wider spreads and less contracts vs narrower spreads and more contracts. For example, if I want my max loss to be less than $1000, then how do I decide between two $5 wide spread vs one $10 wide spread? I know options are all about trade-off but I don't have a clear view now about the trade-off between these two choices.
The bearish call is the worse strategy. As of today ( 7/7/2021) using the same setup, if NTFX goes up by 2.5 % since day one in are already at a loss. Now, if the stock sinks 20%, . that was what you predict, you get 217. It is a joke., look for a better strategy. The way it's set up, you have no idea about the stock you are buying, so just don't trade.
Great video! Wondering, if you’re best off selling any spreads with a deep itm option due to early assignment risk, who actually buys the options at that point? If every trader want to get rid of options before expiration to avoid dealing with assignment, won’t the prices go down due to low demand? Who buys contracts just before expiration?
Next stock to rise tomorrow is $JE
Insider buying, institutional buying, and they own part of EcoBee
And for last 3 months, we short squeezed 3 times to $20, it will happen again this week. 200-300% gains coming
Hi Chris - just wanted to let you know that i love all your option strategy videos. Simply invaluable resource for new or experienced options traders.
How do you determine what the spread should be? Is it based on the risk/loss you are willing to take?
After you understand the win loss probabilities of the particular spread in mind, and the implications it has on profitability over many trades, then go and learn about position sizing and capital efficiency and return on capital.
Then you will be able to answer that question yourself.
Good luck on your researching and learning.
Last video was 3 months ago, is this channel dead?
This is such an useful video, for anyone starting on this topic. The content was crisp and clear.
Thank you so much clarifying the risks about Credit and Debit spread. Early assignment was always something as a beginner that bothered me and this has thrown a lot of light on it
Can someone help me to contact this vlogger? Can we cooperate with new financial products?

Crypto currency is the future, investing in it will be the wisest thing to do especially with the current rise.
2020 online stock is just difficult and unbelievable, I'll rather invest my money on crypto
