Lmao options are harder because they're so much more complicated. Also usually for these stolen trades it's about stealing a strategy rather than a one-off trade. You could possibly use options in the strategy if you think you have a good reason to, but the general consensus around here is if you're asking about whether you should use options the answer is always no. This patreon is a decent place to start building out a database of strategies. Other places like Robot Wealth are also good

Glad you enjoy the vids ChatGPT actually might be able to give you a better answer for your specific situation if you tell it all the details of the option you're trading.

Yo, absolutely loving your content. I don't think I'll be using the knowledge I gain here because I have a feeling I'm just smart enough to think I understand this but definitely retarded enough to fuck it up. Still, did you make a video explaining how Polymarket works for us dummies?
Moreover, I've seen videos from the other Ben on Youtube that explains how a reasonable (think 1.5x to 2x) amount of leverage, if the costs are low enough, is a prudent investment strategy to gain access to a more consistent exposure to the equity risk premium across a lifetime. A way to gain access to this leverage was "the implied cost of leverage in derivatives."
Of course, as the degenerate-lite that I am, I immediately started buying LEAPS on VT.
My question: could you make a video to explain the way to calculate the implied interest rate on deep in the money, long-dated call options and how to price them accordingly when rolling them? Right now I'm basically just vibe guessing the appropriate limit when rolling going for a bit cheaper than mid-point and trying to stay on the longest dated option and the deepest ITM I can get to minimize theta.
Cheers!

Absolutely love it. Automating these shouldn’t be too difficult. As you mentioned, it’s about finding a cheap way to get the most out of it while keeping tied-up capital to a minimum, so it doesn’t prevent you from taking other trades.

Hey glad you enjoyed it kinda depends on what type of trading with options you're trying to do. If you're buying them for a directional bet it could be different than if ur trying to trade volatility. I have an earlier video on here that is an option selling strategy breakdown u may be interested in.

Hey Ben, great video! Just a quick question, can you recommend any videos or articles explaining options - not just theory but also what happens during trading different option strategies and how to manage them when the market does xyz
