Introduction
Your market view may be right. So why is your option trade still losing money?
You expected the market to move up, but the Call option barely moved. You expected a fall, but the Put premium got crushed. You sold options expecting a range, only to see a sudden breakout wipe out the gains from several trades.
In the present market scenario, the challenge for an options trader is not simply knowing different strategies. It is knowing which strategy to use for the market condition in front of you.
This webinar will focus on practical situations faced by options traders and how to approach strategy selection, strike selection, expiry, volatility, risk and trade management across different market scenarios.
Objective of the Webinar
If you are facing these situations while trading options, this session is for you:
- Your market direction is correct, but the option trade still ends in a loss.
- You are buying options, but theta decay is eating into your premium.
- You are selling options, but sudden market moves are taking away your profits.
- You are unsure when to buy options, sell premium or use a spread.
- You are selecting strikes based mainly on premium rather than the expected market move.
- You are using the same strategy in trending and sideways markets.
- You are finding it difficult to decide whether the expected move is large enough to justify the option premium.
- You enter a trade with a view but do not have a clear exit or adjustment plan.
