SUPER NEW to options!

A sport not of inches but of millimeters, lol.
After untold years of friendly rounds and some not so friendly elimination tourneys, what's your favorite beer to relax over after?

Sam Adams Octoberfest. Also Adam's Winter Harvest and New Belgium's Fat Tire.

(Lot's of bowlers don't "hit what they're looking at"... the board they presume to play). Twice I recall telling onlookers, "watch me hit this fly" which was parked on the lane. I'm still "batting 1.000" on flies. LOL!

hilarious. I just have to believe that was done on purpose as part of the troll persona...probably giving too much credit but that is just too damn ridiculous.

Straight out of the womb when it comes to options.

I've taken the path of Option Alpha and Tasty Trades to learn the basics.

Any other material (vids, books, podcasts, etc.) you would suggest at this beginning stage?

There are alot to learn actually but try to read more about delta neutral strategies and i suggest here to read about double calendar strategy where you can make money when market moves up or moves down from volatility.

Damn thats heavy. For your and his sake, just ignore him so he has at least a chance to get taken back into reality and better it. What a mess. That poor soul

Where would you say you are when it comes to buying or selling to enter a trade on stocks. etfs. futures.

Pretend you are going to take the series 56 exam , study that and try to pass the practice tests

The thing to know about Option Alpha, tastytrade, you name it, is that whatever they supposedly teach has a tendency to not work in the real world.

That's... quite broad. And almost certainly unjustified. I have reservations about the implicit moral hazard in, say, TT teaching and offering brokerage services, but I don't think you can make the case for what they teach "not working" any more or less than any other options education resource. No, they don't offer a fast and easy path to riches - but nobody does.

If you can name something that they teach that simply "doesn't work", please post it.
