    I’d really like to see a video with insight on how market makers price new options. Also I understand a market maker will also price options as an incentive to move a market given the risk on his book.

    Very informative as always Tony. Question for you - I notice sometimes that immediately after I place my order the bid or ask immediately jumps further away, seemingly as a result of my order. For example, B/A spread on a SPY put I wanted to buy to close was $0.02/$0.03; I put a buy order in at $0.02 and the Ask immediately jumped from $0.03 to $0.10. Can you explain this? Thanks

    Tony a question: when buying theses call writing ETF eg $SLVO silver Call write ETF ( no position ) if Silver where to spike eg $50 or $60 These ETF's now are Synthetic short uncovered hence volatility to the downside. noticed in March 2020 Call write ETF corrected very hard some maintained their distribution some did not. So they basically require a stable environment with range bound volatility correct ?

  • @munster1404
    @munster1404 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I’m thinking about debit spreads in 0DTE SPX (cash settled) during situations of low volatility where selling options is not as profitable. A debit spread opened deep ITM and allowed to expired ITM will generate a profit equivalent to the spread after settlement. For example a debit of $4.50 paid for a 5 wide spread will, at expiry be worth a credit of $5 hence netting a profit $0.50 at EOD if the strike price is ITM. This strategy will seem viable if a credit spread gives significantly less than $0.50 for rote mechanical trades that advocate opening trades at 10 delta or less. But the problem with deep ITM options is the lack of open interest and volume.
    So if the market maker (MM) is out to facilitate trades, does this mean I should be able get a fill (if the ask/bid price is satisfactory) even if open interest and/or volume are at extremely low levels to zero?

    35:45 So you are saying that if I set my order to sell for 7.85 and you set an order to buy at 7.85 the market maker would not match them? How else the orders could be there?

    Like your video! What do you think about these: 1. FX Liquidity does not matter whether it is from closing a long or short position, it can be taken by MM/banker/any trader to open as a long or short position. Is this statement true or false? Please advise with detailed educational advice.
    2. Because FX is a zero sum game, if the liquidity is worth USD$10.01m it cannot be taken one cent more or less it must be digested exactly with the same amount by the MM/banker/any trader. Is this statement true or false?

    • @OptionsPlay
      @OptionsPlay  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      1.Generally speaking, that is true because of the depth of liquidity available in the currency markets, it is the largest market in the world. As a retail trader, you will never be able to use up all of the liquidity on either side of a MM/Bank’s liquidity so going long/short has the effect of unlimited liquidity to you as a retail trader.
      2.I’m not sure I understand this question, if you could rephrase it, or give me a real example, I’m happy to try to answer it.

  • @you0rsp1

    Can somebody help me understand why if I buy a .53 delta call option the market maker would buy 53 shares of the underlying and not 100 shares since each contract is 100 shares?

    • @jovianblue
      @jovianblue 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The price of the option will not change by a whole dollar if the price moves in that region, it will just change by about .53 so they just need to buy 53 shares. As the option becomes deeper ITM, they can just buy more shares or sell them if the price moves away from the option, and you'll see the delta increase or decrease, too. Maybe this could even explain a lot of the volatility and price swings in the market today because the market makers are buying and selling lots of shares based on increased option usage.

    • @thefuckingpearl
      @thefuckingpearl 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Dude 0.53 delta would be hedged by buying 0.53×100=53 shares and not 100 shares.
      If the delta is 1 then it would be hedged by buying 1×100=100 shares , get it?
