The 8 topics covered are:

  1. Building a winning trading plan.
    The difference between a winning and losing trader often comes down to the basics which are often overlooked. Once a winning or losing position is generating PNL it is nearly impossible to separate out emotions, which is why it is so important to implement a plan before the trade. Since every individual is different in goals and risk tolerance this course is imperative because in trading there is no such thing as "one size fits all". Failing to plan is planning to fail, so don't miss this session.
  2. Managing a collar
    Putting on a collar is easy, how to manage it is the difficult part. When to roll the calls up or the puts down is the million dollar question with collars. The purpose of this course is to have the student gain a better understanding dynamic hedging of stock through the use of collars. It is a must take for anyone owning stock.
  3. Directional Time Spreads
    We all know that a time spread makes the most when it closes at-the-money on expiration, but many people are still confused on the best way to place this trade for directional markets. It is well known that some market makers use this strategy to take cheap directional bets and now you can learn how to do the same.
  4. Selling Vertical Spreads
    You may already know that buying a call spread is the same as selling a put spread at equivalent strikes, but do you know the best strikes to trade? When selling call or put spreads the risk and reward ratio is just as important as the probability of the stock going in the wrong direction past your break even point. Learn the best way to identify and trade short spreads in this 90 minute session.
  5. Elliot Wave Explained
    We all have Profit Source, but do you know how to maximize the valuable information that EW provides? Is it the Holy Grail? This 90 minute session will give you a unique insight into the best way to use Elliot Wave in making trading decisions about direction and speed of the stocks. Learn how to use the search functions and other time saving techniques.
  6. Synthetics
    Did you know that when you use two instruments you automatically create a third? Using a call and stock creates a synthetic put position. A put and stock creates a synthetic call position. An a call and put often create a synthetic stock position. Knowing what your position you have created is imperative to managing it, and the better you understand what you have created the higher the probability of achieving your goals.
  7. Stock Dividends
    Many people are still a little confused as to how stock dividends impact not only the stock, but also an option position you have. Without knowing how to look at a stock position where the underlying is paying a dividend the odds of getting hurt are not in your favor. Having call spreads on while the stock is going through a dividend cycle is very dangerous to the uninformed trader forcing you on the sidelines if you do not know what to do. This class explains to the viewer what to do in such a situation and how to stay out of trouble. Don't miss this one.
  8. Earnings Reports and Option Pricing
    It is earnings season once again and the massive movements with earnings surprises will follow. If you have ever bought a straddle on a stock going into earnings and lost money despite a large move in the stock you can't afford to miss this class. We go into detail on what happens going into an earnings report from the perspective of the option chain and how to best get on the right side of the trade knowing what will happen after the report.
