Description

In this course, you will understand the basics of the stock market and the 3 different indexes, the S&P 500, Nasdaq and Dow Jones. We will then go into learning about options and how to trade them. We will spend a lot of time to understand volume, open interest and most importantly the greeks. Greeks play an important role when selecting an options strategy. Some of the important greeks include delta, theta and gamma. After learning about how to select the strikes for an options and whether to play calls or puts, we then go into paper trading to actually apply what you have learned. We will then continue to learn about charting and how to properly read a chart. During the charting lessons, you will start to learn how to draw support and resistance and how to select the options accordingly. Everyone’s style of drawing support and resistance depends on each individual. But I will give you the tools to develop your own style. The most important thing is to be consistent. At the end of the course, you should be confident enough to execute your own trades and develop your own strategy while being able to read and understand charts.
