Stock options can amplify gains, but they also amplify risk. In this video, we break down the core risks every options trader must understand: directional risk, leverage, time decay, volatility and IV crush, liquidity and bidâask spreads, interest rate changes, event risk, and assignment.
ðððŒðððððŒðððð ððððŒððŸð is where math meets the market.
It is a supremely rational, logical approach to finance. It involves analyzing large datasets, generating mathematical models to make predictions about how markets will behave. Then, in application of these models, traders buy and sell securities based on those predictions.
In this course, you will learn the key tools used by "quants."
Our first course in Quantitative Finance focuses on stock options.
