EP16 "Episode 12 Comparing Defined Risk & Naked Options Strategies _ Options Crash Course"With an overview of undefined-risk strategies now under our belt, we dive deeper into undefined-risk strategies here in episode #12 of tastytrade's Options Crash Course. Specifically, we see that the POP on an undefined-risk strategy is higher than its defined-risk counterpart, simply because the break-even point is further away from the higher credit collected.
EP17 "Episode 13 How to Manage an Options Trade _ Options Crash Course"Here, we have a bonus day built into the syllabus for tastytrade's Options Crash Course. So we use this as an opportunity to introduce Managing Winners and Managing Losers. With Managing Winners, 50% of max profit is our standard target, and with Managing Losers, we could close positions at 2x to 3x of credit received. Or we could choose to simply hold positions indefinitely, with no predetermined exit point. Then, we dig a bit deeper into what rolling looks like from one cycle to the next.
EP18 "Episode 14 What to Consider When Building a Portfolio _ Options Crash Course"Today, in tastytrade's Options Crash Course, we begin to piece everything together at the portfolio level. From a bullish bias, bearish bias, or neutral bias perspective, a strong case can be made for any at the portfolio level. To illustrate this, we explore the basics of Geometric Brownian Motion, downside risk, and delta neutrality.
EP19 "Episode 15 Building Blocks of Portfolio Management _ Options Crash Course"As we round out tastytrade's Options Crash Course, today, we take a look at portfolio theta. While theta at the position level measures the decay for that one, single trade, theta at the portfolio level measures the collective decay for all positions. So today we establish some foundational targets for portfolio theta, while remembering that too much theta can be a bad thing.
EP20 "Episode 16 Setting Up an Options Trade From Start to Finish _ Options Crash Course"With tastytrade's Options Crash Course coming to a close, it's time to put everything we've learned together to build a trade from the ground up. What we see is that by using portfolio theta, portfolio delta, and implied volatility rank (IVR), we're able to execute a trade with very little subjectivity used in the analysis.
EP21 "Episode 17 Course Finale_ Guidelines for Trade Management _ Options Crash Course"We've reached the end of tastytrade's Options Crash Course. In this final episode, we dive straight into adjusting defined-risk strategies, Short Puts, and Short Strangles. Our objective is to offer up a simple and clear framework for how and when to adjust a position that isn't going in your direction.

EP24 "How Options React When Implied Volatility Changes"Learning that the first derivative of the model with respect to volatility can show how an options price will change when volatility does indeed change.
EP25 "Trade Management: Gamma and Options"Diving headfirst into gamma, or deltas change as stock prices change; gamma is used to actively monitor portfolios.
EP26 "Option Contracts; Greeks; and IV"Learning about option contracts, theta decay over time, and the persistence of IV overstatement.
EP27 "Options Strategies; Vertical Spreads & Iron Condors; Options Crash Course"Diving into defined-risk option strategies; learning about vertical spreads and iron condors.
EP14 "Episode 10 Options Strategies_ Vertical Spreads & Iron Condors Part 2 _ Options Crash Course"Picking up where we left off in episode #9 of tastytrade's Option Crash Course, we wanted to dive deeper into Vertical Spreads and Iron Condors in episode #10. Specifically, we lay out how defined-risk strategies in general (and these two in particular) can allow us to better balance our risk/return profiles. This means that Long Spreads can lessen the negative theta from time decay, and Short Spreads can limit the risk on a given position.
EP15 "Episode 11 Options Strategies_ Short Puts & Strangle Spreads _ Options Crash Course"With episodes #9 and #10, we've built up a nice foundation in defined-risk strategies for tastytrade's Options Crash Course. So today, we wanted to move into undefined-risk strategies, with Short Puts and Short Strangles. What we see is that undefined-risk strategies such as these offer us pure, unfiltered exposure to the Greeks (such as theta and vega), while also giving us a higher probability of profit, or POP.
