    Greats discussion this week around the psychology of automated trading with Co-Founder Mike Christensen of TradersPost.io.

    Traders Post allows you to automate trades using buy and sell signals from platforms like Trading View and Trend Spider.

    Even though automated trading can reduce human execution errors, the psychology of automated trading is still something traders have to grapple with despite offloading some of the work to an algo rhythm.

  • 125: What the Books Don’t Teach About Vertical Spreads

    In this episode, I discuss something about vertical spreads that options education books typically don't include. We'll explore comparing buying a single call option vs. buying a long call spread aka. bull put spread through the lens of trading strategy.

    The primary point is that there is a level of consistency with vertical spreads over single options in that the cost of the spread is relatively the same over time whereas the cost of the call can vary due to volatility. This can make it harder to allocate a consistent amount of capital to a strategy.

    The downside with vertical debit spreads of course is that you gaining consistency but at the cost of capping your upside gains if the market moves heavily in your favor.

  • 124: S&P 500 Navigator: Short Term Bearish Thesis and Trade Idea
    Aug 6 2024

    If you trade the S&P500, then this series is for you. In the S&P500 Navigator series, we'll discuss current market conditions including options positions, major economic events, and AlphaCrunching.com's Triumph Rates for trading short term SPX weekly options.

    In this episode, we'll talk about a trade idea to express a short term bearish thesis of SPX making a move to its 200sma over the next week or so.

    The key takeaway is that you are able to create trade structures with options to express you r idea of what you think the market may do or not do over a certain period of time. As long as you are ok with the risk reward, then you can express that opinion and then find out later if you are right or wrong.

    Jul 18 2024

    As the market continues to defy gravity and hit new highs every week it seems, you may be thinking about how you can protect any stocks you may be holding.

    In this episode, we'll discuss a put spread collar trade which can allow you to get some downside protection while at the same time giving you room for more upside participation.

    I came across this trade idea on X and brought Jon on the show to walk us through it.

    Here's Jon's Twitter if you want to check him out: https://twitter.com/optionacejon

    Here's the Put Spread Collar Post for more details: https://twitter.com/optionacejon/status/1803563695169044503

    In this example, he shared what a put spread collar on SPY might look like.

  • 120: Caitlin Clark is the NVDA of the WNBA
    Jun 24 2024

    Caitlin Clark is the NVDA of the WNBA and Cathie Wood is Team USA.

    In today's episode, we'll go over some similarities between these two powerhouses who both have strong momentum and putting up staggering numbers in their respective domains.

    But the decision to leave Clark off Team USA for the 2022 Summer Olympics is like cutting your winners short leaving millions of dollars on the table.
